The Marvel TCG lets you duel against your friends with your fave mutant heroes and villains using Upper Deck's new Vs. System. The way it works is that the cards in your hand get put down and used as your resource points to pay for your super-powered warriors. Resource cards can also be used to power up your mutants in battle and do other stuff. If you hammer your opponent's characters hard enough, your opponent will lose Endurance points and, when those run out, they're toast!Marvel Trading Card Game Super Powers
There is an absolute ton of cool stuff in the Marvel TCG. Right off the bat, all the cards have brand-new artwork done by the comic book artists themselves and they look awesome. The game is also easy to learn, plays fast and everybody takes their turn at the same time so nobody is stuck waiting while some other dude takes their turn.New players aren't going to be stuck buying a ton of cards to get their fave super characters either. There are lots of different versions of each big star - Wolverine, Spider-Man, Magneto, etc. - and you can get the weaker ones really easily. Plus, there are going to be tons of new super heroes including DC heroes like Batman, Superman and the Justice League. There are even plans for Image characters like Spawn to show up.
Finally, there's a big tournament league in the works where everybody will be able to win exclusive promo cards, prizes, scholarships and tons of wicked stuff.

It would be nice for there to be some sort of recovery mechanism so if you start to get your butt kicked you have some way of turning the duel around, but that's about the only thing missing from this game.Marvel Trading Card Game Final Showdown
