- Deploy value-oriented Heroes.
- Use haste immediately.
- Use vigilance to preserve defense.
- Scale counters and triggers.
- Protect or rebuild the board.

Build Paths
Treat Captain America as a counter engine for modified payoffs and proliferate support.
Counters stay after the turn ends; haste and vigilance do not.Lean into legendary Heroes, Avengers flavor, and legends-matter support.
Avengers is a team/theme relationship, not a creature type.Blink or recast Heroes to create new entry triggers while respecting counter loss.
Blinking creates new objects, so existing counters on the blinked Hero disappear.Two Animation Module loops are stored as reviewed combo research: one with Ashnod's Altar and Maskwood Nexus, and one with Phyrexian Altar plus Leyline of Transformation. Both need an initial +1/+1-counter event.
