Intro 0:09 | Overview 0:30 | Box Exterior 1:14 | Unboxing 2:16 Join me for this exciting unboxing of Marvel Champions: The Card Game created by Michael Boggs, Nate French, Caleb Grace and published by Fantasy Flight Games. Enjoy! ;D Check out that box insert! :O Marvel Champions: amzn.to/2QGxsxH
I'm actually not seeing a proper insert. It looks half-baked to me, like they were planning on doing an insert, and then gave up. There's no dividers just slots for them.
That's fair. I'm hoping we'll see dividers in the final retail boxes; after fighting to organise content in their older box designs it's certainly a step in the right direction.
Rolling Solo so cheap skate like to not have dividers when they made slots for them. I’m a big fan of Fantasy Flights games but they make some bone head moves
@@joshroberts8278 I can't tell you how disappointing that is. Like they listened to their fans and said "oh you want organization? Here's a plastic thing for your box. We'll let you figure out how to keep all these cards separated." Like damn, put some freaking dividers in there and this would have been perfect! It'll be in a $45 expansion a year from now. This may be enough to skip the purchase for me.
Wow couldn't believe my eyes when I saw an insert, finally. That's been one of my pet hates with FFG over the years. Probably not the most practical for the game but hey, it's in there.
There are some very big Marvel fans out there (with the help of the movies these days) so that makes sense :) I imagine LOTR will have another surge when the TV show lands.
As I said on the Facebook post, I am so jealous you got a copy of this! I have watched Team Covenant's playthroughs of this and can't wait for it to arrive.
I played a demo at gencon and thought it was great. So much simpler than lord of the rings and arkham and with a more widely appealing theme. As much as I love soloing those games I'm hopeful I can get this played more often as a group.
I definitely want this one and was very interested in its content so as soon as your unboxing popped up i had to stop everything. I agree with you and love the insert and it makes me wonder if they plan on putting out a dividers set.
Thanks for the vid. Been dying to see the encounter cards that haven't been spoiled yet. I'd like to see a play through and know what you think of the game.
You bet! I’ll be running through the entry level one for learning purposes first. Then looking into others or ramping up that intro scenario to its highest level.
At the moment not so much as there are no dividers. This could have been done on purpose or an oversight. Not sure which. However, I’ve already heard rumblings of their party dividers being put together. So the community will make it happen at the bare minimum :)
Yea, would be good to see a play through and about time FFG did a insert for its LCG’s. Hope they do rethink there cycle releasing. Was next to impossible to keep up with LOTR:LCG
Right? Very happy about that! As long as the gameplay and packs releases are well built I don’t mind the release rate. I picked up all the LOTR slowly over time. You don’t need to have it all. Better to enjoy over time imo.
I would like to see it played before I think about getting it. So far the only Superhero based card game I enjoy is Sentinels of the Multiverse because it doesn't have any deck building. The Deck building ones get weird for me cause continuity wise its like why is Superman using Batmans utility belt, or Iron Man using Thor's Hammer. This does look like it seprates it better the other Marvel and DC Deck building games.
Thanks! Great vid. I can't tell from what I've seen so far, but do you know if this LCG is like the others from FFG where you pretty much need to buy two core sets to play tougher scenarios/expert levels?
Hey popmon! As far as I can tell one core seems to be enough to use expert mode. You add three specific treachery cards into your deck and only go after Stage 2 and Stage 3 for the villain. This is considered expert mode in the core box at this point. Cheers!
Hi Adam! thanks for the video. I am 100% with you: a proper insert in an FFG box!??? Incredible! Great! May they keep doing this for a long time! (It also means they've made the box thick enough for cards to be placed on thei sides, contrary to the LOTR LCG core box, for instance. Neat!) I like the idea of a playthrough. Would you play with just 1 hero? I don't think anyone has done that yet. One question for you: is there a good bit of story in the cards? I mean the "villain's scheme thing" deck and the "villain cards" deck. I bet the villain scheme does, since it is a progression. But what about the villain's character cards? Do they intersede other cards to bring a bit of a story out, or is it really just a straight-up brawl?
I think one hero would be the perfect way to play. We shall see however! Thanks for letting me know you’re interested in a playthrough. Those are all great question I hope to soon find out!
Just like FFG did with KeyForge, I expect that we'll soon have tokens to replace the Tough, Confused, and Stunned mini cards. I expect that a lot of third parties (e.g., Team Covenant) will create custom acryclic tokens before then.
saluk You only need to pickup what you plan to play. They reprint LCGs often enough. LOTR was tough as it was there first go but AH LCG hasn’t been an issue from what I can tell.
@@RollingSolo If I would get through the content faster I wouldn't have to wait for the reprints :P The nice thing with Marvel is every pack (announced so far) seems to be a one off instead of making it where you kind of have to have all of the releases from a cycle. So if you are waiting for a reprint you can still grab whatever is in stock and enjoy it.
Doesnt look much different than their other offerings in the LCG arena. I wonder why they are charging so much for it. I guess just inflation. Love to get it, but gonna pass. I'd pay $25 for it. Not $50.

Join me for this exciting unboxing of Marvel Champions: The Card Game created by Michael Boggs, Nate French, Caleb Grace and published by Fantasy Flight Games. Enjoy! ;D
Check out that box insert! :O
Marvel Champions: amzn.to/2QGxsxH
A proper insert! *Finally* ! Would love to see a solo playthrough !
Right? Thanks for letting me know. This would be a fun one :)
It looks so pretty, but, like you said, it’s how it plays.....
NemesisEG That’ll be the key for sure :)
I'm actually not seeing a proper insert. It looks half-baked to me, like they were planning on doing an insert, and then gave up. There's no dividers just slots for them.
That's fair. I'm hoping we'll see dividers in the final retail boxes; after fighting to organise content in their older box designs it's certainly a step in the right direction.
Got it pre ordered. Would love a playthrough. Can’t believe they made that nice insert and no dividers
I wouldn’t be surprised to see dividers later. They even have the cut out areas for them.
Rolling Solo so cheap skate like to not have dividers when they made slots for them. I’m a big fan of Fantasy Flights games but they make some bone head moves
Sometimes third party ones are the nicest. So there’s that. We shall see first!
Rolling Solo doesn’t take my excitement for the game away though. Pumped for when you do a play through

I’m going to hold out hope for dividers seeing as the grooves are already there. If not the fan market will certainly make it happen!
Picking this up this week for sure. Thanks again for the great unboxing.
You bet! Have fun and check out the playthrough series if you haven’t!
@@RollingSolo Always do!!
Rolling solo + Marvel Champions playthrough = MUST WATCH - thanks!
Sounds like a plan to me ;)
Got this on preorder! Looking forward to playing this with the kids sometime next month!
Woohoo! They’ll enjoy it I’m sure.
Thanks for showing this one off Adam! Definitely will be picking it up. Would love to see you do a play through.
I believe I’ve got interest and I also am interested. :)
Rolling Solo nice. I have a feeling that this will be my lcg of choice. I like AH and LoTR, but I’m super pumped for some Marvel.
There are some very big Marvel fans out there (with the help of the movies these days) so that makes sense :)
I imagine LOTR will have another surge when the TV show lands.
Fantasy Flight never stop coming up with interesting games, thanks Adam looking forward to the playthrough.
Me too! It’ll be fun to play this with the community here :)
Great unboxing!!! I'd love to see the cards actually stashed in that insert. Thats a new thing for FFG games.
Hey Victor! Thanks for checking out the video. I’m glad they did. :)
As I said on the Facebook post, I am so jealous you got a copy of this! I have watched Team Covenant's playthroughs of this and can't wait for it to arrive.
Jean! Well I hope to give you a look at the game Rolling Solo style ;)
I played a demo at gencon and thought it was great. So much simpler than lord of the rings and arkham and with a more widely appealing theme. As much as I love soloing those games I'm hopeful I can get this played more often as a group.
I feel like group play with this would also be a blast. Here’s hoping! :)
Would love to see a play or two of this game from you, looks very interesting!
Awesome to hear that! ;)
Can’t believe they have a legit insert! Also, would LOVE a playthrough. I haven’t see a good one yet.
Well I think you can consider that playthrough a work in progress. I have interest for sure :)
A legit insert without any dividers. C'mon FFG. 🙄You can now put 8 decks into 4 slots. Wow. Revolutionary.
I have a feeling there is a plan. At least I hope there is!
Yes it would be awesome to watch the game . Please . It looks so amazing .
Tanner! Happy to hear the interest is there. All the best!
I'm a Marvel fan, specially with the MCU, and i would love to see you do a playthrough.
Keep on rolling solo!
The interest certainly seems to be there! Thanks for letting me know yours :)
I definitely want this one and was very interested in its content so as soon as your unboxing popped up i had to stop everything.
I agree with you and love the insert and it makes me wonder if they plan on putting out a dividers set.
Hey John! With the grooves in the insert you would assume so! I hope.
@@RollingSolo yeah that's the part that caught my eye and made me think of it... but by the looks of the grooves they would be thick dividers.
This is true. I could see third party stuff being made very quickly if they do or don’t. :)
I am definitely looking forward to this. I pre-ordered as soon as it was announced. Great to see that insert and the box ready for expansions.
I’m very excited for this. Hope you enjoy it too. In the meantime I hope I can show you some of the game! All the best :)
Thanks for the unboxing. I would love to see a play through. Thanks
Hey! Great to know. See you around :)
woot nice one !!!! i ll waiting your solo test !!!
Thanks for watching! :)
A playthrough would be awesome
Hey Pedro! I can tell you at this point it’s happening. :)
As a marvel fan, who has more then 600 comic books, i'm extremely happy with that. Thank you so much.
Wow! Well I hope you enjoy it. The setup video is landing this week. Cheers
Thanks for the vid. Been dying to see the encounter cards that haven't been spoiled yet. I'd like to see a play through and know what you think of the game.
You bet! I’ll be running through the entry level one for learning purposes first. Then looking into others or ramping up that intro scenario to its highest level.
Can't wait to get my copy! Pre-ordered both this and the Green Goblin scenario right after they were announced at my FLGS!
Just finished filming the setup video. Looking forward to spending some time with it with you all in the near future! :)
@@RollingSolo How well does the insert work for storage? I was very curious about that!
At the moment not so much as there are no dividers. This could have been done on purpose or an oversight. Not sure which. However, I’ve already heard rumblings of their party dividers being put together. So the community will make it happen at the bare minimum :)

Rolling Solo yea, I only have a few cycles of LOTR, now and then I buy more when I see them in the LFGS
I need to pickup the newest expansion from my FLGS soon!
This is of interest for me. Play through, please.
Roger that :)
I would love to see a play through to see if my kid might be able to hang with this!
Ah that would be cool! Well it’s in the works :)
Solo play through please! This will help pass the time until my preorder arrives! :)
Hey Kasey! Thanks for letting me know. Sounds like a plan :)

Hello Cheddah! Sounds like a plan and thanks for watching :)
Hey how many cards are in the box? it's 50 cards per deck right, so is there 400 in the box? Just planning for sleeving purposes.
Good question! I’d have to check when I’m home next. Not sure off hand. Cheers!
Yes!!! Play every hero character please !!
haha Would love to but that might be a task which is tough to pull off. Thanks for the interest and checking out the video my friend :)
Those black pieces at 4:48 don’t appear to be able to fit into the health gauge wheels. Did you have the same problem?
They do in fact fit. At least mine did!
I believe it's a tight fit. Just ensure you put the female end through first I believe.
I figured out you have to pull them apart. The instructions didn’t say so, so that’s why I was stuck.
Thanks! Great vid. I can't tell from what I've seen so far, but do you know if this LCG is like the others from FFG where you pretty much need to buy two core sets to play tougher scenarios/expert levels?

From what I read it includes everything for 4 players and all copies of every card.
That's correct!

100%! I’ve heard rumblings already. :)
Etsy community is already on it.
Great video Adam. Can't wait to get my copy.
Thanks! Hope to show you more soon.
Lol. Regular Boardgamer: ah...there's an insert thats good.
FFG LCG Player: OMFG! They have an Insert so everything fits back in the box! *squeel*
hahaha Exactly. Maybe dividers are the next thing we can all drone on about. Dividers with the core box coming in 2025? ;p
Björn - Brence - Bonten the insert sucks. Doesn’t fit cards in FFG’s own sleeves as the insert tapers at the bottom. Such a waste.
just bought this looks really good
It's a great one! Enjoy :)
I would love to see a solo playthrough!
Thanks for letting me know your interest!
I will get it eventually. It won't hit my table for a while, so I'll wait.
Nothing wrong with that approach!
Just put my preorder in at my LFGS!
Awesome. Happy to help you find a game you’d like. Cheers!
Please showcase Marvel Champions. Thx. I love your channel too,
Thanks Anne! That means a lot. It’s in the works :)
I don't believe FFG actually made it, where is the valley of death :P
And I'd love to see a solo playthrough.
haha ;)
Sounds great Peder! I got you covered.
Yes, play through it.
Thanks for the feedback James. You’ll be happy to know the setup video is landing this week. ;)
I'll get the game, but I'm not keen on getting every expansion that comes out. I hope there will be those expansions that I can just outright skip.
There’s never a rush to get everything. Get it at the pace you’re playing the game. Otherwise you’re just spending money with no gain!
Fortunately the new release strategy seems fairly amenable to skipping releases.
saluk You only need to pickup what you plan to play. They reprint LCGs often enough. LOTR was tough as it was there first go but AH LCG hasn’t been an issue from what I can tell.

Very true!
Could you please share scans or photos of the rules reference guide? Thank you!
Hello Raul! I can’t provide those sorry. However I could potentially provide content of gameplay! Hope that’s better :)
@@RollingSolo I had to ask :) Thanks for your reply!
Not a problem :)
I’m sure it’ll land on the site very soon.
Reminds me of Vs
Interesting! Thanks for watching :)
Do we want to see a playthrough? Did you even need to ask :)
haha ;D
Well it’s good to know if there’s interest. Marvel isn’t that popular....haha
Seems that was a silly question in hindsight!
i like this video
Thanks for watching! 😄
Definitely "of interest". Guess I'll get it this fall if the gameplay does not totally turn me off... 👍
Thanks for letting me know. All the best!
Doesnt look much different than their other offerings in the LCG arena. I wonder why they are charging so much for it. I guess just inflation. Love to get it, but gonna pass. I'd pay $25 for it. Not $50.
Thanks for checking out the video and sharing your thoughts. I’m sure you’ll find it for half off. 😄👍🏼
