Season Pass Variants
He Tianyou's dynamic poses and distinctive dotted textures define this season's spotlight variations. Prepare your wallets – these are must-haves for fans of his art!
Season Cards
Sam Wilson Captain America
Sam Wilson, embodying justice, takes center stage as the new Captain America. This 2-Cost, 3-Power card places Captain America's Shield on your side at the start of the game. Any Captain America card at that location gains +2 Power, and you can move the shield each turn thanks to Sam's Ongoing ability. Will this benefit future Captains like Captain Carter? Only time will tell!
Joaquín Torres (Falcon)
Joaquín Torres, the new Falcon, has wings—and a powerful ability! This 3-Cost, 3-Power card doubles the On-Reveal power of 1-Cost cards played at his location. Think of him as a mini-Wong for 1-Cost cards. Pair him with Moonstone for devastating combos!
Thaddeus Thunderbolt Ross
This 2-Cost, 2-Power card boasts the game's most impressive mustache. His ability draws a card with 10+ Power whenever your opponent doesn't spend all their energy. Could he be Surtur's new best friend?
Redwing
Redwing, a 3-Cost, 3-Power card, plays a card from your hand at his location the first time he moves. While he doesn't move himself, combining him with powerful cards and movers opens up exciting strategic possibilities. Which deck will he dominate?
Diamondback
Snap's second snake-themed character, Diamondback (3-Cost, 3-Power), reduces opposing cards' Power by -2 if they already have negative Power at her location. Pair her with a certain blue guy for maximum synergy!
New Game Mode: Sanctum Showdown
Get ready for an enchanted battle! Launching February 18th, Sanctum Showdown ditches cubes and the six-turn limit. The goal: win locations and be the first to 16 points. Each turn, one location becomes the Sanctum, awarding more points. Expect intense gameplay and rewards, including up to four unowned Series 4 and 5 cards!
Exclusive Event Cards
Laufey
Laufey (4-Cost, 6-Power) steals 1 Power from any card near him (including yours) on Reveal. Could he shake up the meta?
Uncle Ben
Uncle Ben (1-Cost, 2-Power) is a nostalgic card. When destroyed, he's replaced by Spider-Man. A meme card? Maybe. But worth a try!
Gorgon
Gorgon (2-Cost, 3-Power) increases the cost of cards in your opponent's hand that weren't initially in their deck. A powerful counter to strategies involving cards like Shield Agents, Moon Girl, and Thanos.
Mastery System
Launching February 11th! Each card gets a Mastery Track with rewards like character reaction sets, special flares, and a gold diamond flare at the end.
New Locations
- Smithsonian Museum: Perfect for Sam Wilson Captain America and his shield.
- Madripoor: A scaling location rewarding early dominance, but be wary of overextending.
Conclusion
This season is packed with excitement! From Sam Wilson as Captain America to Sanctum Showdown and the Mastery system, there's something for everyone. I'm personally excited about Redwing—what about you? Which card are you most eager to try? Let us know in the comments!
