Spectrum is definitely on my list. Adam’s going to be cool, but Spectrum swapping forms opens up options for shapeshifting charaxters(looking at X-Men).
The complete expansion set is amazing thematic. Both heroes and all villians are looking really great. However, I think that the "mystic" cards will power up Dr Strange and Warlock to beyond S-Tier. Imagine you play with both of them in one game. The villians will have no chance .... It is a pitty that Hulk and Thor are so weak
Amazing breakdowns. You have a great ability to explain basics to newcomers and also provide depth for veterans. Not sure what your ambitions are but you have talent.
It’s so weird that Loki and Hela are also in the box. Did not see that coming. Also it’s been confirmed via a Spanish promotional post. It’s up on Hall of Heroes. Loki and Hela’s villain cards are visible.
@@AllYouCanBoard The back of the box has only got the villain faces that we have had confirmed though... thats really interesting. Maybe its a separate villain depending on how you finish? I'm really excited and the Asgard baddies mean this is an instant buy more than I thought it would be.
I'm thinking you don't have to kill off Proxima Midnight and Corvus Glaive at the same time. I think it just means when one gets to 0 HP, that villain is still active to attack/scheme until the second villain has 0 HP, then they both die.
@@Shan215103 No, you don't have to. We already have rules to cover that. It just happens to be the case that if you get most of the villains to 0 hit points, it triggers defeat. In this case, the Corvus/Proxima does not get defeated when they hit 0; they just stay alive with 0 hitpoints until you get another one to 0.
So many cool cards. Love the added deckbuilding possibilities. I think Adam Warlock looks like the more interesting to play of the two new heroes. Can't wait for this box set. Cheers!
Yeah I think I'm currently more interested in Adam Warlock as well because I feel like there are more possibilities in terms of deck variety and interesting, fun games. But so hard to tell without playing them. Can't wait!
I'm so excited, I just found out about this game and your channel is one of the many channels that helped me get into this game. I can't wait till this comes out and I have the money to buy it.
Living Tribunal is Unique so doesn't that mean you can only have one copy in your deck so there is no option for another Hero even without Warlocks 1 copy restriction to thin a deck by 3. If your playing 3 players then it could be possible to add 3 cards to the encounter deck.. each with a copy however that could mean more than one copy of a unique card in the encounter deck or is it not considered "in play" but once dealt out as an encounter is that considered in play. Overall I'd say the intention is 1 max per player deck and 1 max in the encounter deck. So yeah in a multi hero game you could all have a copy to get it into the encounter deck then if it's encountered then you could add another after this etc I'm new to board gaming & LCGs but that's how I interpret this.. so I could be wrong. As a new player one thing I immediately realised was why would you have more than the minimum deck size so really surprised that there isn't a mode that forces you to have 50 cards as part of the hardest mode for example.
No, you're absolutely right. That was an oversight on my part! That's what happens when you have sooooo many cards to cover and want to try and get the video out the same day! Haha 😅
Just wanted to say I literally stopped the video at 25:00 and watched the entire season of Wanda Vision in 2 days and now I'm watching the rest of the video :P.
I'm kind of surprised that Thanos is coming out so soon. I feel like the Power Stone in the Galaxy's Most Wanted expansion was an amazing concept in the game. I thought they were going to put out at least another expansion before Thanos. Maybe they're trying to keep up with the MCU and start going with what's popular there....Either way, excellent reveal and content as always man. Keep up the good work!
I see what you mean, but at the same time, he is on the original game box and by the time this arrives, it will be almost 2 years since release so I feel like on some level it was time. Plus, maybe this means that we'll start venturing into areas like Fantastic Four or X-Men sooner rather than later.
@@AllYouCanBoard Good point. It would be cool to have a Daredevil vs Punisher expansion, but one can dream! X-men would be fire too. I’ll even take a DC-themed one at this point.
@@codykunka5558 It's totally possible. What makes me think that this is actually Thanos is the inclusion of a lot of characters that were a part of the Infinity series in the comics. Plus, I think Fantasy Flight is going to ride the coattail of the MCU to keep generating money. We've seen Black Knight, so I wouldn't be surprised if we see more Eternals coming into play, especially if the movie does well.
In thinking about it more I’m even more hyped for this box. Two reasons. 1. The heroes are interesting choices and have unique and fun mechanics. Adam Warlock is probably S tier. 2. The villains while hard look like they will have interesting/fun mechanics. I felt that the Guardians box had some interesting design choices but most of the time the villains punish you just because. There wasn’t a design reason why the cards just stated that. For example the scenario 2 with the collector is just plain mean. The idea of putting cards in the collection is awesome but most of the upgrades(especially) just hinder you for no reason. Plus I got really annoyed that you needed specific resources to get rid of them. I play solo so I had games early on where I didn’t have the resources in my deck with Groot. I’ve also heard that Nebula can beat you by turn 2 if she gets the right attachments. I haven’t played champions in 2-3 weeks even though I have starlord and Gamora bc I got burnt out by Galaxy’s Most Wanted. I’m actually going to play a lot with Drax but against the heroes from the core set and the Red Skull Box.
One main part about Quantum Magic, IMHO, is that it is not only reward you for discarding, but also allow you to be more lightheaded about it and play more active game! Imagine that you still don't draw your cape and sences. And so if you don't have a magic - you would fear that "damn, I could play that karmik blast, but what if I mill my cape out? So I then need to wait when I draw all my deck out, reshuffle it and pray that this time I would get cape". But with magic you could be more free - yeah, you could still mill out cape and sences (or other valueble cards), but now you get another oppotunity to pull them out later. So I really hope that there will be two copies or magic here.
Oooohhhhh man Summoning Spell looks amazing! Especially if you just build Adam's deck with the some of the most premium, high cost allies from the apsects!
Adam Warlock is for real deckbuilding i think. max 8 cards for every aspect. If you play solo it will be hard. In group, you can build for a defence or attacking adam, even twarth. So, it will be not a deck that you make in 5min :P lovely concept. And then you play agains Thanos and you lose 50% of your cards. HARD, HORROR battle. But, if you win against Thanos, you must be allmost dead :D Also nice, the stones. You can play them with every villain!! Nice to see that. They are doing it well with every expention new card types. It's not repeating, it's look allways fresh... and then a video like this, with a cute dog and and a maestro with lot's of enthousism is the top! Thx for that :)
Looking forward to this... but honestly I was hoping for a CIVIL WAR BOX SET. 1ST. ready wanted to fight an enraged Hulk and either Ironman or Captain America
@@AllYouCanBoard He was still shook after that powerwalk. But I understand, it's hard to keep that excitement in when Fantasy Flight start droppin some heat!
If I understood correctly, for tower défense you can take one to 0 HP but it can only be defeated once both a 0HP. It doesn’t have to be in the sane turn though
Regarding Proxima and Corvus. Is it possible that the condition of "cannot be defeated while the has any hit points remaining." means that you can bring them down to zero but they will still remain in play until both villains have zero points?
Yes definitely possible. I only interpreted it the way I did because of the way the article mentioned it by saying you have to "take them down at the same time".
Living Tribunal is unique, so I don't think that the set will include more than one copy of it. Same with any other "once per deck" cards, though I am not sure why they used separate ways to signify this deckbuilding restriction. One thing you didn't mention and that isn't obvious is that Adam Warlock has an additional hidden deckbuilding "restriction". In addition to the hard restriction where you have to play all four aspects in equal amounts (and only one copy per card), Adam also discourages you from including neutral cards at all so that you can make use his Battle Mage Ability and cards Karmic Blast to their fullest extend. I would guess that you don't want to play any neutral cards besides the Resource trio of Energy, Genius and Strength. Maybe even those are in question. Spectrum is probably 18 cards because of her 3 Energy forms, which are basically part of her identity but present on separate cards. The usual 15 + 3 of those. I imagine the Tower defense scenario will have either Corvus or Proxima be "active" at any point, i.e. the Villain who activates against you, with Focused Defense being the marker for it. I wonder how the rules will be for "attacking the villain" in this scenario. I also wonder if the set comes with another Villain life counter, as otherwise I am not sure how to keep track of two villains' life totals at the same time except pen and paper.
Because Adam Warlock and Dr Strange can both be on the table and both play Summoning Spell. They cannot both have a Living Tribunal. The real thing is that when Tribunal is actually used it goes into the villain deck and the villain deck can only ever have one of that.
I reckon Thanos isn't the big bad in this box set ('The Mad Titan's SHADOW'). I think Loki will be the big bad and that there will be some trickery involved ;-) .
Ok. Did I miss something in the rules? Is there something that happens when you run out of your own deck? Cause like, I know shuffling the Villain deck adds acceleration but I didn't see anything about shuffling my own.
@@MrStebe thanks. I missed that in the rules I guess. It's... Not that bad a punishment, I don't guess, unless against Red Skull or Galaxy's Most Wanted villains.
So on Adam Warlock, since basic cards aren’t considered aspect cards can I have all five guardians of the galaxy in a deck? Also I kind of wanted a card or cards where Adam Warlock could take the infinity gauntlet from thanos. You can’t stun or confuse Thanos but it would still be awesome.
Really don't like Adam Warlock. That deck is going to be incredibly unreliable, and after things settle, there's probably only going to be one deck for him.
What has you most excited about The Mad Titan's Shadow?! And which hero are you more excited for?
Spectrum is definitely on my list. Adam’s going to be cool, but Spectrum swapping forms opens up options for shapeshifting charaxters(looking at X-Men).
Being able to add the Infinity Stones to any villain is gonna be fun. Rhino with the Gauntlet!
More mystic only cards!
Warlock seems like the ultimate voltron hero
The complete expansion set is amazing thematic. Both heroes and all villians are looking really great. However, I think that the "mystic" cards will power up Dr Strange and Warlock to beyond S-Tier. Imagine you play with both of them in one game. The villians will have no chance ....
It is a pitty that Hulk and Thor are so weak
Your intricacy of your breakdowns are second to none on marvel champions.
Thanks so much, that means a lot. Appreciate all the kind words and support!
Agreed! I love these videos!
Thanos: "Soon, you will know what it's like to lose."
Me: "Sorry bro, Ronan beat you to it"
First thing I thought when I saw the announcement (like one hour ago) was: sure All You Can Board is going to post a video immediately 😂
Haha, it was a lot to talk about and edit, but I'm glad I still managed to get it up the same day!
I feel like six months ago I was grumbling for not enough content for this game, now I can't keep up with all the releases!

Rhino + Infinity Gauntlet = Genius/Hilarious! 👍🤣
Poor Rhino is going to have his revenge!
The deck building thoughts went haywire when I saw Adam Warlock!!! I'm definitely gonna try an all ally deck from every aspect! I mean why not right??
If you're familiar with MtG Adam Warlock seems perfect for a Superfriends style deck. I'm totally here for it.
Living Tribunal is unique. It’s easy to miss, but only one of it can be played.
Thanks, completely missed that! Had a few people point it out though, good catch!
with Summoning Spell you can even bypass any restrictions (Stinger, Groot etc.) and put into play any ally.
So many cool cards. Love the added deckbuilding possibilities. I think Adam Warlock looks like the more interesting to play of the two new heroes. Can't wait for this box set. Cheers!

The 3 extra cards in Spectrum’s set are surely the 3 form cards. She’ll still only have 15 player cards.
I guess it's been already answered, but Living Tribunal is unique, so only 1 copy per deck.

For Mass Attack, Aerial would also count as a trait. Building an Aerial focused deck just got a lot more interesting with Monica.
Yeah, between that and her having the printed aerial trait I'm looking forward to putting together my Monica death from above deck.
Great video thanks..... I’ll get my pre-order ready 😂
I've been vaguely thinking of some kind of Starlord leadership thwart deck and White Tiger seems made for it.
Taking 'Soul World' out of your discard using 'Quantum Magic' would be a great for that card.

Still, only one copy :/
Yeah I'm really excited to deck build with him. I think it's going to be a really fun exercise.
Pretty sure the 3 extra cards in Spectrums deck are the energy forms and they won’t count towards your 40-50 card limit.
Also, don't drag the dog again bro. That dog looked like he was violated three ways to Sunday LOL.

Quick comment....Spectrum's extra cards are her Energy Forms. She likely still has 15 Signature cards.

I really want to know if Thanos will be harder than Ronan.

For “Pacification,” would exhausting an upgrade that doesn’t require an exhaust to be active (like Armored Vest) do anything?
Hi friends, thinking, do you think that Adam warlock is allowed to play multiple man? I'd think probably not right?
He can play multiple man, but sadly only 1 copy... so there wouldn't be much benefit IMO
