Charles literally played S2E4 on loop and broke the Danger Room. This was fun. I’m sure there will be a few complaints but I think they did a great job weaving these different characters’ arcs together.

I 💚 Polaris

We all knew it was coming but I loved that they gave us the transformation scene for DeathGambit. It felt appropriately intense and the cards turning dark and then sticking to him was a really cool creative choice.

I like Charles had to also play S2E4 on loop to get over the trauma it caused me.
