This represents Blade working alone, so he automatically destroys any of his minions or platforms when they come into play, but he keeps his inventions and powers up as more and more cards are milled into his trash or under his card, meaning he'll deal more and more damage as the game goes on. This huge damage output is why he's often seen as much harder than the original.		* ''Mad Bomber Blade'': Blade after his plans were initially foiled, having gone a bit off the deep end, with a massive scar and a huge arsenal of bombs as he leads the heroes into a trap, where he tries to take them out with a death ray.

			===La Capitan===
			A time-traveling pirate whose ship, ''La Paradoja Magnifica'', is crewed by warriors from throughout history... and also an acrobat.

			La Capitan's deck is heavy on ways to wreck your equipments and ongoings, then puts those cards under La Capitan. When she has enough, she flips. When flipped, if you attack her and she has one of your cards, she puts that card in your trash and takes no damage until there aren't any left, when she flips back. Fittingly, the captain needs her ship, as without it she burns through her deck at a rapid rate. Her crew also isn't that tough and is vulnerable to attacks that hit multiple targets.

	Gabrielle Adhin		Gabrielle Adhin stole her family heirloom, a fortune-manipulating talisman.

	X		Kismet has Jinx cards and Lucky cards. The former debuff the heroes and the latter benefit Kismet. She also has her talisman, which increases her damage and is a target. Destroying it instead puts it on the heroes' side and causes Kismet to flip. Appropriately for a luck manipulator, Kismet's deck is very swingy. If it's stacked in the right way, she can put loads of cards into play and prevent just about anything the heroes can do to stop her. Otherwise, a paltry 1 psychic damage and a single card play are all she can manage.

Unlike the default, the talisman starts in the hero play area. She heals herself and damages the heroes when a Lucky card enters play and hits the hero with the talisman. When it gets destroyed, she flips and starts dealing the heroes and the talisman damage, which will eventually return it to a hero play area and flip her back.

	X		When The Wraith put the serial killer Jack Donovan behind bars, he was offered a stay of execution if he participated in an experimental drug trial. Unlike the other participants, Jack didn't just react to one of the drugs, but ''all'' of them and was able to overwhelm the guards and escape. The Joker to Wraith's Batman, and thus her nemesis.

			In-game, Spite heals himself whenever he hits something or whenever he destroys a victim card from his deck, though these victims can be put in a safe house at the cost of letting Spite hit the heroes, play a card or force the heroes to discard. The big part of Spite's deck is the drug cards, which buff him and can't be removed. When all five of them are in play, Spite flips and turns into a Resident Evil boss, though he stops healing, destroys his entire field and starts hitting the heroes instead of playing cards. Spite may have healing and damage reduction from one of his drugs, but he's the also only thing in his entire deck that can hurt the heroes, not to mention some of his drugs can be helpful for certain heroes, like Compound XI helping Tachyon fill her trash or Compound Upsilon allowing Legacy to use Take Down and Heroic Intervention infinitely.

	X		'''Variant:'''
			* ''Spite: Agent of Gloom'': So Spite died, but was resurrected by Gloomweaver. He doesn't heal himself when he hits the heroes anymore, but he does start with all his drugs in play facedown and flips them one by one. Unlike normal Spite, you can actually flip those drugs, but you need to play a balancing game with victims in the safehouse. Keep them out and Spite can flip drugs, but put them in and Spite himself will flip and start dealing more damage.

	===Wager Master===		===Wager Master===
	X		A cosmic entity with the power to warp reality.

	X		Any fight with the Wager Master will have him change the rules of the game and has many alternate victory and defeat conditions. At any time, if the right (or wrong) card enters play, the game might just end.

 Hugh Lowsley's beloved brother Nigel also got cosmic power from the shard they touched, but his came at the cost of his sanity.  Driven mad by screams and whispers from the thing he was connected to, he also learned to harness his power... and to use it to destroy all he finds out there in space.
-Infinitor is a villain in the mold of Plague Rat, with relatively few complex strategies offset by pure, raw damage output.  Unlike Plague Rat, who goes it alone, he has an army of Manifestations on his side, evil mirrors of Captain Cosmic's constructs.  They're also four-hitpoint critters, but while Captain Cosmic's are fragile and tend to buff his team, Infinitor's get built-in damage reduction from his card (and the Twisted Miscreation gets all damage dealt to it reduced ''to'' one if it goes over) and instead shit damage all over you, and in one case trap you in a slowly-closing cage that keeps you from playing cards.  Worse, he's very much a solid fighter in his own right, and lots of his cards put a ''lot'' of Manifestations into play.  He can chain tons of constructs onto the field with relative ease, and the only one that doesn't hurt you can potentially play cards out of his deck whenever any Manifestation is destroyed, including itself.  What stops him from being super-difficult?  Well, bluntly, the fact that Nigel's still in there, and doesn't really want to hurt anyone.  Once he's shit out enough constructs, he flips, puts a straight jacket on himself, and starts destroying the lowest-health manifestation at the start of each of his turns.  He will still bombard the team with a higher-damage cleave each turn, but it makes dealing with some of the more-disgreeable little buggers a lot more reasonable.  Also, because, unlike Plague Rat, his damage doesn't go through armor, heroes that can turtle up and tank can help mitigate the worst of his attacks... though some Manifestations hunt for weaker targets, so it's not a perfect one-size-fits-all solution.

 At the start of the game, Kaargra is smirking on her badass arena throne as the heroes go toe to toe with her armies of gladiators, and can't be targeted directly.  Instead of killing her, the heroes win when they've gained twenty points of Favor, a resource earned by doing various cool things.  (Beating up enemies, you get the idea.)  However, her Bloodsworn have their own Favor too, and twenty points in ''that'' pool nets the heroes an automatic loss.  Also, if there are no more gladiators in the arena (or, more likely, if she's played the wrong card out of her deck and is kicking an injured one off the bench and back into the fray), Kaargra flips, becoming a 40 hitpoint target that pumps out damage, and the heroes can't win until they flip her back.  Finally, she has ''yet another'' gimmick mechanic: a Title deck.  Titles are played at the top of each turn, and they're effectively in-game achievements, earned for doing specific things and granting various buffs: Death-Caller goes to anyone who can destroy a target without dealing damage and gives them a passive benefit that kills anything they reduce to three or fewer hitpoints, the Indiscriminate goes to anyone who hits multiple hero and villain cards in one round and boosts their overall damage, that kind of thing.  Titles are awesome, but villains as well as heroes can get them, so get cracking!  Because of these wacky mechanics, and because of her very-swingy deck, Kaargra is often considered ''the'' most difficult boss in the game.  That said, this is mostly because fighting her means playing very differently from the way you're probably used to, pushing to grab Titles rather than just to get the combos you're familiar with in play, and while she's still hard proper deck control ''can'' make her easier to deal with than the Difficulty 4 club.  Also, all her fiddly mechanics make her kind of a pain unless you're in the Digital version, since there's just so much to keep track of.

 Playstyle-wise, Plague Rat is pretty simple. He spends most of his time doing nothing but hitting the players, and in terms of aggression is pretty high up there. Other than simply dealing painful amounts of toxic and melee damage, he also has the unique mechanic of infecting players with a madness virus, forcing them to self-damage (which nastily turns a lot of damage-boost effects against you) and punishing them for trying to get rid of the Infection cards before the whole team's infected. Worse, a whole, whole lot of this damage, including most of his and the Infection self-damage, is irreducible.  He doesn't really have any tricks besides pumping out tons and tons of pure damage and giving himself various defensive and regenerative buffs, but unless you've got some weird Ultimate Killer Strategy (like chaining together the Visionary's ability to change the type of/reduce a particular target's damage and Ra's ability to both make all hero damage fire damage and make all heroes immune to fire damage) it's probably enough to turn the game into a high-speed damage race as you try to murder him to death before a mixture of his armor-piercing attacks and your own damage boost cards sent you into oblivion.

	Voss is an interesting villain. He starts the game almost-invincible, since he gains a huge pile of damage reduction for each of his Minions in play and he gets a lot to begin with. Once the heroes cut down enough of them, though, he flips and enters the fray himself to prove he's no armchair general, attacking the highest ''and'' lowest health heroes. While his Minions are all three health targets, they traffic in literally every damage type, they can swing for the highest health, lowest health, all heroes at once, and everything in-between, some grant armor to all villain targets, and each one is immune to the damage they cause. On top of them, he also has a small number of really nasty cards in his deck, like two of his Lieutenants that either boost damage or offer armor or spaceships and warp gates with a ton of health that pump out extra cards or lots of damage, that can all pop out when you least expect it. Plus, his sole Ongoing that puts all the minions in his trash onto the field when destroyed, and destroys itself if you're too chicken to. He's not as hard as a real difficulty 4 villain, or even Citizen Dawn, and some games he just plays lots of three-health targets that the heroes easily mow down as they whale on him, but he's no pushover.

	Notably, the Dreamer ''is'' a target in this fight, and with only six hitpoints too. However, she’s also ''just a scared little girl'' so the aim of the game ''isn't'' to kill her. In fact, being ''too'' indiscriminate with your attacks and letting her get incapacitated causes a Bad End, and you have the option to jump in the way and take the hit if the Environment targets her, which you should. Rather, the goal is to beat up all the nightmares she's creating and help her get her fears in check. Unfortunately, many of these nightmares are pretty tough, with nasty attacks and disruption effects, plus often-heavy damage reduction and punishment effects for destroying them. Also, when the Dreamer flips, she starts to stir in her slumber, and in the process wipes out a load of hero Ongoings and starts spraying psychic damage at the team. She's tough, sure, but she's not ''nearly'' as bad as, say, the Matriarch, or even Citizen Dawn. More than any other fight in ''Sentinels'', beating the Dreamer is all about tempo. Carefully controlling the pace of the fight so that you're ready and set up even when she starts flipping out and trying to mash the proverbial Snooze button. Be careful, and maybe bring some irreducible damage and/or damage reduction of your own.		Notably, the Dreamer ''is'' a target in this fight, and with only six hitpoints too.

Furthermore, many of her other cards either heal them and her, bring defeated Citizens out of the trash, or wipe the board clean of all hero Ongoing and Equipment cards. Worse, if enough of her Citizens are destroyed, she'll flip and merge with the power of the sun, turning invincible until more of them join her. Fortunately, this can only happen once per game, and she stops tearing into the heroes with energy damage while so merged, so you at least have a fighting chance.

However, she ''also'' has two kinds of cards: "Burst" cards, and cards that get stronger the more Burst cards are in her trash. This is why her base power lets her look at the top card of her deck and choose whether or not to discard it: to help her get charged up faster. She ~~make~~ a very effective damage dealer and, with the right cards, a semi-effective tank, as some of her cards also prevent, redirect, or mitigate damage.		Fittingly, Tachyon is all about speed.
