How about if you're playing the villain against other players, if you're playing 1v1 obviously last player standing wins. If you defeat one hero, but the other player beats you in a 3 player game = draw. Beat 2 of 3 of the hero players in a 4 player game, that would be a win for villain obviously. I really like the idea of this 1 vs. many play potential. I wonder how well it would support this?

@RetroMaticGamer

Жыл бұрын

It doesn't support this at all. Nobody plays the villain. The villain is an automated deck that is not controlled by anyone. It just automatically attacks everyone and deals them cards at random that represent the things it's doing. Players are always heroes and only ever heroes, working together to defeat the villain.

Can't wait until this game turns up, seems tailor made for me.

Awesome shirt, Roy!!

Funny enough the lack of story and narrative was a big plus for me. I love games like the Arkham Horror LCG, but it doesn't feel like a card game. It feels like a board game with cards instead of a board. Arkham can take a long time to set up, feel bloated with special mechanics and big blocks of text. Marvel Champions actually feels like a card game, where turns are fast and concise and you're firing off card combos, setting up future combos, or deciding to take one for the team to get rid of threat or a particularly nasty minion. Very fun game, I still have a ton of content I haven't played in the box and I already can't wait for even more content and options.

FYI, they were asked if there were any characters that they weren't allowed to use in one of the preview streams, and they said No, they can use whoever, so It's almost guaranteed that the X-Men will be introduced sooner or later

@Mikewar1230

Well so far between Variants of heroes and the numerous decks available (counting environments) I think SotM has a lot more customization at this point. Yeah deckbuilding being available probably will give Champions the edge once more things come out for it, yet with deckbuilding games a downside I find is that some cards will never be used or played, whereas with Sentinels you get your deck so you will be seeing everything by some point, nothing will be left to never be used. Also with premade decks, they can have some really OP cards and other mediocre and still keep the deck fairly balanced.

Yes, please. Do the comparison with Legendary. I love Legendary and it makes me take a step back towards buying this one.

This isn't a deck builder. You build a deck before the game starts, but then you keep it for the whole game. So it doesn't have that progression of your deck getting better with deckbuilders, but it does mean the decks are more unique.

Legendary Marvel is my favorite solo board game, I have all but one or two expansions and I’ve played it solo more times than I can remember. I really like deck building as a mechanic so Legendary scratches that itch. I’m less excited about actually creating decks for collectible card games, the deck creation is what turned me off of the Arkham Horror Card Game. However I do like the idea of the multi-part scenarios and fairly intricate villain decks, and some of my friends don’t like deck builders so this game might be a better fit for them. Guess I’ll have to check it out once i see it in the store and if the price isn’t too high give it a whirl.

Okay bye

mehh, not my cup of tea

This seems needlessly complex... and generic at the same time. Generally, for deck building games, either building the deck is part of the game (think draft games), or the rules are simple (MTG: 60 or more cards, up to 4 of each... except basic lands.). Beyond that, this seems both stingy with characters, and wasteful. Stingy as you get 3 villains (and Rhino is the Spiderman one?) vs 5 heroes, and wasteful as you get named characters who are part of both villain and hero's deck. Like, I can understand wanting to be able to "recruit" other characters (though perhaps not in a 2+ character game?), but I'd also like freedom to do so. Why can't Klaw use the Rhino as his henchman, for example? I like the "secret identity" thing. I'm not sure I like shuffling the hero's problem(s) into the villain deck... this seems like there should be a couple of problems for each character, and you draw randomly each game. Finally, I'm not a fan of the "costs" tabs. WOTC's Transformers does something similar, and it just seems... arbitrary. In mtg, a swamp taps for 1 Black mana. But here? One of my cards can be discarded to pay for 1 or 2 of a cost on another one of my cards? Why? The cost should be tied to the flavor of the card, and at least from what I see here, it's not. Also, the cost is unrelated to the effect of the card, creating memory issues. "Oh, this card is bad... but i can discard it for two green things, so it's good?"

William Simkulet I mean here all you have to do is shuffle one of the colored piles together with your signature cards, and add a handful of neutrals as instructed. In MTG either you buy a pre-made deck or you have just a vast ocean of cards, no idea what your land distribution should be, and no idea how to prioritize any card over any other. If your only criterion is get what looks cool, you can do it here too, if you are meant to think about it (assuming you have a larger Marvel collection than just the core), MTG having basically no rules means deckbuilding is much much harder than something a bit more on rails.

I feel like he purposely said T'Challa name wrong..... interesting game though .

Superhero theme is nice, but also boring as shit. Lotr LCG is nice too, but impossible to start playing now.

Nah. You can still find everything for LoTR LCG. I started collecting about a year and a half ago and I have found every deluxe expansion and the older cycle blocks.

@@MikeGrimsey so you went to the store one day and found the complete product list and purchased as much as you could and then you went a few more times later and bought the rest including the nightmare decks, is that right? Can you tell us how much you spent for everything?

@@GeorgiosD90 the complete product list can be found on ringsdb.com or on FFGs website. I dont bother with the nightmare decks, although my LCG has around 100 sitting in stock with a thick layer of dust on them (literally). No I cant tell you off the top of my head exactly how much I have spent as I dont keep track, but an educated guess is around $700 CAD going by what sets I have and converting the MSRP on FFGs website to CAD for everything I have so far.

Great review, thumb down for the fedora.

Disappointed it's not using the superhero team Champions. Instead we get the same old boring heroes used in everything except for She Hulk.

Has Tom always breath so snorty? xD

So Tom, you all of a sudden like games WITHOUT Apps?

Lost me at "cooperative game"

Another FFG game with endless expansions. Guess there will be special new rules with each expansion too. But only cards, counters and tokens so far. Won't buy.

Where's the component drop???? Dice tower quality is degrading
