So, i have a fair sized collection, however I don't have 4-5 of all the R or VR hero cards. I would like to have 1/2 a dozen decks ready to play with and would like to build battlesites for them. If somone has the number crunching power would you please tell me which of the currently avaliable battlesites have the most number of C or UC heroes on them? I have a TON of heroes from original & MC then it is basically 1-2 of them after that...
thanks!
For my money, I'd go with:
Danger Room
Cape Citadel
Hell's Kitchen
Krakoa
Outback
Each of these is relatively easy to find cards for. I think everyone's cards on the Danger room except Iceman are all common or uncommon.
Same with Cape Citadel.
Outback has some rares - Wolverine, Longshot, Reavers... but they aren't impossible or expensive to acquire.
-BBH
I'll run the numbers when I get home.

hmmm Surprised by Daily Bugle and Latveria... Venom, Spidey and Scarlet Spider were all tough finds as well as Dr.D and Mr.F
Jack-
this list is Exactly what I am looking for! Thank you for your assistance! :)
The top 3 most effective "uncommon/common battlesites" that i can see...
Danger Room
Ship
X-World
Anyone have a reason to dispute this? (I am going for the Negate as must in any battlesite ... sorry Krakoa)

Yea- I don't have nearly enough Scarlet Spiders.... Nor Mr. Fantastics. (Dr. Doom came in a starter so i have a dozen or so of him if you need some)
I have an incredibly UNSORTED collection. The problem is that I keep buying loose collections online via eBay and it causes me to reshuffle and tear apart any hope of organizatino I previously had. I have appprximatly 6 1000 ct boxes currently... All in differnt forms of sorting/organization. If I could ever get everything up to date I am sure that i could get my trade site page up to date!

I wholy endorse these ;D
It's funny, because I'm an X-Fanboy and I always felt like I was just being a nerd using these three battlesites so much, but I'm glad the numbers point to why: Some of the best for the cost (in terms of (non) rare activators)
The numbers are probably slightly off, I put the unspecified rarity as 1, which is probably a bad idea. Let me run them again...

So by these numbers the person who comes to a tournament with a Sanctum Sanctorum or Onslaught Citadel Battlesite has a MESS of cards to be able to afford that many Rare or VR heroes to adequately stock it. (Both of them are very effective and I have seen included in top tier decks).
I excluded promotional cards from the list. Onslaught's Citidel is probably a 5 in terms of ease of obtaining cards (they're $8/set of heroes if they're in stock). Getting activators might be tougher.
