    I have taken a look but I am not impressed with Marvel Champions. I have and play Marvel VS 2PCG for competitive and Marvel Legendary for co-op, and the mechanics of Marvel Champions don't seem interesting enough for me/ not enough complexity. I might change my mind in 6 months, of course.

    I am interested in the hero lineup, especially with She Hulk as one of the playable characters. I assume they are saving some of the more recognised heroes and villains for team or character specific sets. I also love the idea of alter egos being a factor.

    If I pick this up I will probably try She Hulk or Spider-Man vs Rhino, Black Panther vs Klaw and Iron Man vs Ultron. Nice they are including complete card decks!

    Have you tried Marvel VS 2PCG (competitive LCG from Upper Deck)? I think thematically it's the best Marvel game out there - thematically better than Marvel Champions, from what I have seen as well.

    I think I tried it back in 2004 with a Spider-Man vs Doctor Octopus deck, but I couldn’t really get into it back then. I tried Legendary Villains more recently though and had some more fun with that one. Curious to see how this one compares.

    No no, that was the old VS game/system. That was a CCG which is no longer active/ in print. Marvel VS 2PCG is the system that replaced that more recently, it is an LCG. E.g.: https://www.upperdeckblog.com/2015/0...ew-characters/
