With great art and fast-playing game action, the "Super Hero Squad" TCG will really pack a punch with gamers!
Utilizing a simple system of attacks and blocks, players construct decks based around 6 power types (Energy, Tech, Strength, Speed, Animal and Elemental). Hitting your opponent causes them to lose cards from their deck. Deplete your opponent's deck completely, and you win! Featuring all your favorite Marvel Super Heroes (and Villains!), and mixing deckbuilding strategy with just a dash of luck, SHSCG is simple enough for kids to enjoy but offers a depth of play that adults will enjoy as well.
In the "Foundation" base set, fans can pick up intro packs themed around Spider-Man, Iron Man, Wolverine and Hulk. Each includes one super-rare foil card and a collectible coin per intro pack. A two-player intro pack is also available, pitting The Avengers against the X-Men, and features the collectible coin plus two exclusive play mats! Additionally, booster packs consisting of six common cards, three uncommon cards and one rare foil card are available, with one ultra-rare Loot card per box!
