About Hire a Crew
Hire a Crew, Instant, designed by Lordigan first released in Jun, 2026 in the set Marvel Super Heroes.
**Hire a Crew** fits best in aggressive Rakdos (black‑red) or mono‑red go‑wide decks that want to flood the board and push damage quickly, especially ones built around tokens, sacrifice synergies, or combat-focused turns. The 2/1 menace body adds immediate pressure while the team-wide +1/+0 acts as a small finisher in wide boards, making it most useful in low-curve aggro shells that can capitalize on burst damage. However, there are generally stronger options depending on format: cards like **Dragon Fodder**, **Krenko’s Command**, or **Hordeling Outburst** create more bodies for synergy, while **Reckless Bushwhacker** or **Goblin Bushwhacker** provide more explosive team-wide boosts with haste, often ending games on the spot. In sacrifice-oriented decks, **Claim the Firstborn** or **Deadly Dispute**-style enablers may offer more value. Overall, Hire a Crew is playable in casual or budget aggressive token builds, but in competitive environments it is likely outclassed by more efficient
