Marvel Champions: The Card Game - Luke Cage Hero Pack

About this product

Built to take the hit. Ready to hit back.

Add Luke Cage to Marvel Champions with a complete, ready-to-play Leadership deck.

Stack tough status cards, rally powerful allies and bring the unbreakable Hero for Hire into the fight.

Product Description

Wrongly imprisoned and subjected to an experimental treatment, Luke Cage emerged with superhuman strength and nearly impenetrable skin. He took those powers to the streets as a Hero for Hire, protecting New York alongside the friends and allies who fight beside him.

The Luke Cage Hero Pack adds Luke as a playable hero in Marvel Champions: The Card Game, together with his fifteen signature cards and a 40-card pre-built Leadership deck that is ready to play straight from the pack.

Luke is built to stay in the fight. His unbreakable skin allows him to build up tough status cards, helping him absorb punishment while continuing to pressure the enemy. His Leadership cards bring allies into the action, with characters such as Jessica Jones, Iron Fist and Misty Knight supporting his street-level approach. The supplied rulesheet specifically highlights his Metal Bracers, Burstein Process toughness and Leadership-focused ally play.

The pack also introduces cards that make use of Team-Up, encouraging combinations between matching characters, while additional cards can be used to expand your wider Marvel Champions deck-building options.

Marvel Champions: The Card Game Core Set is required to play. This Hero Pack is not a standalone game.
