This season's spotlight showcases the distinctive art style of He Tianyou, featuring dynamic poses and unique dotted textures. Prepare for some stunning variant options!

Season Cards:

  • Sam Wilson Captain America: This 2-Cost, 3-Power card deploys Captain America's Shield, granting +2 Power to any Captain America card at that location. Sam's Ongoing ability allows you to move the shield each turn. Will this benefit other Captain America cards in the future?

  • Joaquín Torres (Falcon): A 3-Cost, 3-Power card that doubles the On-Reveal power of 1-Cost cards played at his location. Think of him as a mini-Wong for 1-Cost cards, creating potent synergies, especially with Moonstone.

  • Thaddeus Thunderbolt Ross: Sporting an impressive mustache, this 2-Cost, 2-Power card draws a card with 10+ Power whenever your opponent doesn't spend all their energy. A potentially powerful, albeit specialized, card.

  • Redwing: This 3-Cost, 3-Power card plays a card from your hand from its location upon its first movement. Strategic use with high-impact cards and movement abilities will be key.

  • Diamondback: A 3-Cost, 3-Power card with an Ongoing effect that reduces the Power of opposing cards at her location by -2 if they already have negative Power. Excellent synergy with certain blue cards.

New Game Mode: Sanctum Showdown:

Launching February 18th, Sanctum Showdown offers a fresh take on the game. Forget cubes and turn limits; the goal is to be the first to 16 points by controlling locations. Each turn, one location becomes the Sanctum, offering increased point value. Expect intense gameplay and the chance to win up to four unowned Series 4 and 5 cards!
