I discovered the other day that you can use Into the Stratosphere to move a card from underneath Savage Mana to the top of the Villain deck.
I'm not sure *why* that might be useful, but there you go. My first thought was to use the same technique to un-charge Mad Bomber Blade, but his rules say cards under him have no type.
I could see it being useful if, say, an Infra-Red Eyepiece turned up two Devastating Auroras and you needed to put something else on top of Citizen Dawn's deck to buy some breathing room.
Or just generally as a stalling technique if there isn't anything on the board to bounce. You can pick something harmless from under Savage Mana and be promised a safe-ish turn.

Reminds me of using Whoops, Sorry! to destroy a card under Chokepoint or La Capitan.
It could also be useful if you want to release some of what's under Savage Mana but not all of it, e.g. the Chairman's Underbosses but not his Thugs, to get him to flip.
I was so shocked when I saw this, I sent in a bug report, but John confirmed it's working as intended.
You use a card like Fumbling Fool and hit choose for me; if the first deck is a villain, their discard will be stolen by the monkey! I imagine it'll work with Gimmicky Character, Wrecking Uppercut, Extrasensory Awareness and anything else that's similar.
I think the reason it was so unexpected is I've come to interpret "a player discards a card" to mean "a hero card is discarded". I mean, when you discard from hand, both of those are true, but when you use any of those above cards, you, the player, are also causing a card to be discarded, just from the villain deck.
I'm not sure there's any useful interaction here (I guess you could delay Friction getting an extra Surge?), as it just means La Capitan taking less damage, but worth noting regardless.

Correct me if I'm wrong (and I can't test in the app yet), but wouldn't that also mean that when a villain or environment causes a discard from a hero player's hand, it would not go under Chiquito? As long as the card is phrased "discard a card" and not "hero discards a card"?
Sidenote: The first time I played La Capitan's team game was in Madame Mittermeier's, and I think I played Carousel of Horror wrong. It was basically game over the way we played it, which was to put all the discarded hero cards under Chiquito.

I don't think "discard a card" ever shows up as a command save for on hero cards. The environment or villain is going to say "Each player discards a card" or "A player whose hero took damage this way discards a card". The player is forced to discard by the non-hero card, but they're still doing the discarding. And that's why Chiquito won't steal cards off the top of your deck when you're forced to discard that way.
Here's a fun one: If Plague Rat uses Chemical Frenzy ("Plague Rat deals each target 1 toxic damage. Any target dealt damage that way deals itself 1 melee damage.") when Greazer is around, then Plague Rat will attack the Perfect Pompadour, causing Greazer to punch him. Then, the Pompadour will punch itself, causing Greazer to punch his hair, causing him to punch himself.
"Do you not know that a man is not dead while his name is still spoken?"
Greazer is great to have out alongside Plague Rat, Sgt. Steel, Friction or anyone else who does team damage. :D Arsonist plus Mega Gunner (minus Espionagent <.<) equals look out!
That's correct. Not only that, but Chiquito only takes one card per turn, rather than one card per hero per turn, so that ended up being doubly wrong.
You know, I'm still not clear on the "The first time an X does Y each turn" language. In some cases, like Provocator Tarnis, it triggers once per turn period, no matter how many X's there are. In others, like Wrong Time and Place, it triggers once per X per turn. I haven't figured out what language makes the difference between the two behaviors.
They're exactly the same language. It's just up to Christopher which one is which. It really bugs me that he won't clean up his wording. "It's technically correct." Yeah, that doesn't mean it's not ambiguous as hell! "I'm an English major. I'd know." Like you're the only one! I'm a Communications major!

I thought this one was pretty funny so I thought I would share:
My team was near death in a villains game against Bugbear, Fright Train, Sgt Steel, Biomancer and La Capitan in the Court of Blood. Each of the villains were greater than 20 HP. Fixer, Expat, Tempest, AZ and Bunker were each under 5 health and the court of blood had a single vampire out. The environment played Infecting an Heir resulting in the vampire bringing Fixer down to a single HP. I thought the game would end right there, but I luckily had Jack Handle out! Instead of doing 2 damage to each target, Fixer ended up doing ~15 instances of 4 damage to each villain target (~60 points of damage!!) and completely cleared the field for a win at the last second!
It is an odd combo to set up, but WOW can it have fixer decimate the villain field. I can only imagine the result if we had damage boosts on the field. With Legacy and Twist the Ether, it could have climbed to as much as 15-20 instances of damage at 7 damage per shot for as much a 140 points of damage to a single target in a round, out of turn!
Slaughterhouse Six Ambuscades Pitfall card says "Play this card in the Hero play area with the fewest Snare cards. Whenever that Hero's player draws a card, each target in this play area deals itself 2 melee damage. Then, destroy this card."
I am not a native english speaker therefore others probably had no problem with the text but I had the impression that whenever is related to a sequence whereas the wording "when" would mean a single card draw. Mr. Fixer had his Crowbars on the field and I skipped his play and power phase to let him draw 2 cards because I thought he wold be able to deal him and another target 2 times damage.

Well, yeah, by my reading it would trigger on each draw, but you'd need Fixed Point to test it because it'll get destroyed after the first one.

This ^. The card destroys itself after the first draw and thus the second draw would not trigger any damage. Fixed Point would be needed for what you are describing.
I was surprised to find that Glamour triggers on every X, not just once per turn.
So was I.
It's once per turn per Nemesis, is the problem. So if you have (to pick a completely random, wasn't-at-all-encountered-by-a-lot-of-people example) Glamour and Ray Manta in play, the first attack against each of them will rebound. If you attacked Glam twice, the second attack would go through, but the first hit against Glam doesn't mean the first hit against Ray goes through.
Glamour isn't so bad if you have someone capable of attacking multiple times in a round (Chrono Ranger, Ra, KNYFE) or anyone who can destroy without causing damage (AA, Fanatic, Naturalist). I think once I comboed one into another -- PW Fanatic used Smite the Transgressor to eat up the redirect, smacked her with Absolution, then used her base power to let Naturalist eat her.

Yes, this is what I meant by every X, whereas the same wording on other cards only applies to the first X. Which is why I was surprised it worked that way.
Each vs Any would be a very simple, unambiguous, comprehensive solution.

Thermobaric Mine of Greazer: "When this card enters play, put it in the play area of the player with the most cards in play. Then, this card deals each hero target in this play area 1 fire damage. Whenever a card enters this play area, this card deals each Hero target in this play area 1 fire damage."
"Enters this play area" doesn't include one-shots correct?
I thought EACH card enters the play area but the mine didn't activate, thematically it makes sense.
Does the mine also activates if ongoings and equipments are played beside targets, i. e. all cards which stay in the play area?
PS. The wiki is missing some text for Electroshackles, whoy should be contacted?
One-shots do not enter a play area. There are very odd interations that can occur if one-shots were considered to be in a play area. Also, you might refresh the Greazer page.

I remember being real surprised to learn that, even though Ambuscade's Slaughterhouse Six stay in play when he's defeated, they aren't listed as villains that you need to beat to win, the way that Omnitron's devices are. You can wipe out the other villains, and then I guess the Slaughterhouse Six go home for the day?

If Greazer's contract goes on a character who has another Nemesis in play, Greazer also counts as that villain's nemesis -- so if he's after Setback, Plague Rat hits him even harder. It's in theory a neat way to get them to whack each other, but in practice it's meant Setback goes down fast.
hoo boy, every time I play in MMFFCC, I learn something new about Maze of Mirrors. I just had a fun matchup with a team that included FS Parse, Santa Guise, and Nightmist. Maze of Mirrors came out, and the shenanigans were flying.
Parse had Updated Intel in play, and Santa Guise kept copying it. Every time I played a card, I got to spy on two decks, which made Parse's base power, Santa Guise's power, and Nightmist's love of deck stacking very, very happy.

Also, in not necessarily "unexpected" combinations, but a fun one I ran across - Sky-Scraper loves seeing Mega Gunner get his ability activated twice so she can drop a net 12 damage (or more) Compulsion Canister.
Incidental Contact + Wrong Time and Place with enough tokens. Hit a target MANY times. Each redirect allows you to hit the new target twice. Used this on Gloomweaver to deal 36 damage to him in one go. (6 per hero and 6 for Gloomy himself, using Conduit Blade and Null Amplifier)

I won a game in Madame Mittermeier's against Infinitor by abusing All-Seeing Alzrabar WHILE Nightmist was in mist form. SInce Alzrabar just reveals a card, and then puts it into play, It let Nightmist go from below 5 hp to almost full as she played one shot after one shot, finally taking out Infinitor. Young Legs, Ra, and Wraith took care of the rest of the environment and gave Nightmist enough card draw so she could discard almost every turn and stay in Mist Form.
Story wise, I imagine Nightmist in mist form kinda floating around and investigating this weird fortune telling machine, kinda ignoring Infinitor, while he wrecks the place with manifestations and the carnival fights back.
Wait... How did you fill up on health? With Starshield? Because Master of Magic shouldn't trigger from "put into play" effects.
