Okay, I added numbers. I generally don't put 4 of any non-unique location in a deck. I took out Elemental Converters - discarding one of your high-cost cards is too much of a cost if you don't hit Soul World. That makes 30 support cards...so we're done there for now.

A few characters I've found are very important.

Timber Wolf, Brin Londo
He's the ideal character to bounce to Foiled Assassination, and re-dropping him rarely hurts. Four of him.

Chameleon, Reep Daggle
Protection. Not a 4-of, but still damnably nice. One of.

Sensor, Jeka Wynzorr
More protection, 1-less cost. Three of.

Silver Surfer, Skyrider of the Spaceways
He'll pull your late-game out for you, early. He'll make sure you have what you need, whether it's Saturn Girl, or Human Torch, or Galactus. 4-of.

Apparition, Tinya Wazzo
Hidden hate, just in case. You just might need her. 1-of.

Bouncing Boy, Chuck Taine
His big advantage? The bouncing. Throwing down a body if you need it, discard fodder if you don't. He's easy card advantage. 1-of.

Jazmin Cullen <> Kid Quantum, Hero of Xanthu
She's free Cosmic-Surge. She's worth the cosmic counter cost. 3-of.

Matter-Eater Lad, Tenzil Kem
He's a nice 'just-in-case'. 1-of.

And there you go.

Now, this isn't a perfect deck by any means. Here are a few things...

Things you may want to try!
More 1-drops, the better to underdrop with.
Silver Surfer's Surfboard, from MEX. If I had some, I'd try it out. Never have, though. I imagine it'd be great.
Kindred Spirits, in place of Cosmic Tuning Fork.
Wildfire, Drake Burroughs is awesome, and he probably has a place in this deck. Give it a shot.

Yeah, play around with the deck list, make it your own. This isn't the best build. I've even had better, I think, but...it's a start. It's an astonishingly fun build, so go give it a shot.

I personally guarantee it will annoy your friends. Please, enjoy.
