Who is actually good at Skrulls? Stats

 

Here is the promised stats overview for the Skrulls infiltrate World Leadership extract Crisis. 



As always with these we don't go over every single Affiliation but focus on things standing out. The time frame we look at is April 2nd 2025 until today which has 1950 games played on the crisis. 




The number of games isn't super high (neither is the total amount of games played for the faction in the time frame) but A-Force really like playing Skrulls. 

Black Bolt is probably the absolute king of the extract with all the shenanigans Inhumans can already do and Skrulls being a Civilian extract which makes Terrigenesis an auto pick for the 5 TTCs.


Criminal Syndicate are fantastic on the crisis with only Shadowland Daredevil not outright loving it. 

I wouldn't have expected Convocation to be as good as they were on the crisis with their low average physical defense. 

Miles Morales even narrowly outscores Black Bolt and while Web Warriors probably don't bring the crisis themselves they absolutely shouldn't be sad to see it flipped either. 






Doc Ock delivers top tier numbers for the Spider-Foes here but the amount of games isn't super high. 

Apocalypse is firmly above 50% but not scratching 60% like the very best Affiliations on the crisis. 


Ok actually T'Challa is the absolute king of Skrulls. Both his (leader) versions absolutely dominated the, in total, 24 games they played on it. Yeah I know that's not nearly enough to draw actual conclusions from but it's impressive nonetheless. 






Interestingly every other Avengers leader has better success on Skrulls than Steve 1. Might be worth switching to Sam when it is flipped, if the roster can be played under both to decent effect. 

Cabal, under it's two best leaders in Master of the World and Malekith, are decent on the crisis. 



X-Men are among the Affiliations with the most games on the crisis but with limited success. Untypically Cyclops has the best win rate here for them. 

Guardians also scratch 200 games played but sit firmly below 50%. They aren't super tough outside of Bill and absolutely hate being pushed so it's understandable. 

Classic Thor drags down Asgard to below 50% overall while Jane and Loki 2 are fine on the crisis. 




Magneto obviously hates being pushed by a Skrull pick up and with only 3 physical defense base that's pretty likely to happen . 

Weird, that Strange Defenders are as bad as they are here. Of course Strange himself isn't great at picking up a Skrull but the other Defenders often sport good physical defense and are rather tough to live through being pushed into the enemy team. 




Midnight Sons play a lot of Skrulls and absolutely shouldn't as it turns out. Elsa is even worse than usual there and Blade is well below the 50% mark, too. 

Legion of the Lost and Black Order aren't good on the crisis either (though Corvus actually posted a positive record here). 





Sentinels of course struggle everywhere currently (2026 can't come soon enough for them) but Skrulls is especially bad for them. Low physical defense makes the Skrulls push pretty likely and that is absolutely back breaking for the slow Robots. 

X-Force struggle everywhere but for less obvious reasons and Skrulls isn't breaking that streak either. 

Emma might as well not play the game if Skrulls is flipped apparently...

Affiliation Overview: Web Warriors

  Why should you play the affiliation  Peter Parker is the single most popular character in the world. Miles and Gwen share between them the focus of the two best superhero movies of all time and are extremely popular characters in their own rights.  On the table Web Warriors are a supreme objective play team building off of their core of incredible 3 threats. They are big enough nowadays to offer different approaches too though.  How to start the affiliation  Untypically I don't think getting the affiliation pack is always the best way to start here. While Miles and Gwen are absolute core models to the affiliation, 4 threat Peter Parker will very rarely (if ever) see the table and Venom is decent but really up to personal taste. And seeing how the only real benefit of the affiliation pack is getting the additional Peter for free you can really decide if that's worth it for you. If you own core set 1 you already have the character and if you own core set 2 you h...

Affiliation Overview: Defenders (updated)

  Why should you play the affiliation  Defenders are a giant affiliation containing both the more mystic focused Defenders of Doctor Strange and also the Marvel Knights which made up the Netflix show Defenders.  On the board Defenders have a super deep roster with a tonne of great characters and some variety in play style.  How to start the affiliation Update: In Q2 2025 AMG releases the Defenders affiliation pack which uniquely comes with five models in Doctor Strange, Wong, Daredevil, Luke Cage and Iron Fist. You have to pick this pack up first and absolutely should.  After that I would first pick up Shang-Chi and Silver Sable followed by Hulk and then Namor and Black Panther, Chosen of Bast. You have your core very much there.The affiliation is very deep and has a lot of good characters but with those mentioned you have your probably most used models in hand already. Also all of the affiliated TTCs. Just note that Pentagrams of Falafel (let me have fun with t...

Affiliation Overview: Midnight Sons (updated rewrite)

Why should you play the affiliation? These are Marvels best Earth based characters. This is a definite objective fact and not just my personal feeling.  They also offer a wide variety of play styles and affiliated models.  How to start the affiliation Update:  Blade, Moon Knight, Doctor Voodoo and Ghost Rider will be combined into a MS affiliation pack, with their current stat cards in all four langues and new art. It releases in April.  Your first purchase here is probably still Blade (leader) and Moon Knight but you could also now start with Elsa Bloodstone (leader) and Man-Thing. Both are good value boxes as both come with a leader and a good affiliated 3 threat. So in the end it's probably best to just get both. Next up you'll want to look at getting a high threat model for which you have 3 options that all have their unique strengths and reasons to be picked. The biggest threat investment but also by far and large his best home comes in the Immortal Hulk. Ghost ...
