Top 10 Marvel Champions Heroes

The Marvel Champions card game is easily one of my top ten favorite tabletop games. This game probably gets more time on my table than any other title in my collection. And with new content being released almost monthly, there is no shortage of heroes for you to take control of. Which is why I thought it would be fun to do a list of my Top 10 Marvel Champions Heroes.

Now, any list like this, especially with it being a cooperative game, is going to be highly subjective. If you poll 100 Marvel Champions players, you’d be lucky to find two people who have the same top 10 lists. But regardless, I’m going to give it a go anyway. Note that I’m basing this list on both how powerful the hero is in the game and also how much fun it is to play. This is not strictly a tier rating list. And with the rate of new heroes being released, I’m guessing this will be subject to change in the near future as well. But that’s enough preamble. Let’s get to the good stuff.

Quicksilver is great because he’s so versatile with just his basic powers. He relies heavily on these, but his ability to unexhaust himself means that you can use them more than once per turn, or even use different ones. Want to thwart and punch? Go for it. Or maybe you need to defend an incoming attack and then thwart the next turn. No problem. And somewhat like Iron Man, he’s the kind of hero that builds himself up as the game progresses. Once he starts getting his upgrades out, those basic abilities become even more powerful.

When I think of Gamora, the phrase “death by 1000 cuts” comes to mind. She is not a hero, like say Drax, that is going to overwhelm your enemy with a crushing attack—although she does have a few potent strikes. Instead, she is going to slice and dice
