Marvel Superstars


Marvel Superstars is an out-of-print collectible card game published by Upper Deck that released in North America in March 2010. The cards and game play are inspired by films based on Marvel Comics characters. It is the first collectible card game to use characters from Marvel films produced by different studios. The card art features scenes from the films.

Game play

Marvel Superstars emulates battles between superhero and supervillain characters from the films. Each player selects a leader, which has 50 health. When a player's leader has accumulated damage greater than its health, that player loses the game.
In addition to the leader, each player uses three bases and his or her own deck of 50 or more cards.

Card types and teams

There are four card types: Leader Characters, Supporter Characters, Actions, and Resources
All cards except resources belong to a team. The teams are: Avengers, Fantastic Four, Marvel Knights, X-Men, and Villains.
