omg, you guys, the new magic: the gathering marvel super heroes set is literally everything i've been waiting for. i mean, who doesn't love a good avengers assemble, right? and this set delivers, fixing all the issues i had with the spider-man cards. mark rosewater, the head designer, is a total superhero fanatic and it shows in the attention to detail and love that's gone into this set.



i have to say, the new mechanics in this set are totally on point. there's this thing called plan, which is like an enchantment that you can advance by stacking plan counters until you get a reward. it's so cool, especially with cards like doom reigns supreme, which lets you exile the top five cards of your opponent's deck and play two of them for free. and it synergizes perfectly with the doctor doom card, who's just a total villain - in the best way possible.



but what really gets me excited is the teamwork ability, which is all about synergy and working together. it's found on instants and sorcery cards, and lets you tap creatures for bonus effects. like, with the hulk smash! card, you can either destroy an artifact or deal damage to a creature, but with teamwork, you can do both. it's like, the ultimate team-up move. and the best part is, anyone can use it, not just villains.



another mechanic that's got me hooked is power-up, which represents abilities that can only be used once. like, nick fury's power-up lets him recruit a hero, vehicle, or equipment card from the top seven cards of your deck, and play it for free. it's so useful, especially with the double-faced cards that represent superheroes and their secret identities. andRead more: Full article on www.pcgamer.com
