I know he's not the most fun or complex hero, but there is no better hero than Peter Parker Spiderman for teaching new people how to play the game. He teaches you some interesting interactions while being very simple, straight forward and easy to understand.

The way everything worked out that first round with weapons runner, spider tracer, webbed up, and assault was so perfect, it almost looks like the decks were stacked lol 😂

Just picked up Champions since I'm a huge X-men nerd. Fantastic video, one of the best Learn To Play videos I've ever seen.

I know to rules pretty well as I play very often. However this video is awesome. Was very concise and this is a great video for beginners and veteran players alike. Good job dude, looking forward to the next "How I Play"

This is an awesome introduction of the rules. We played few games and were still little confused. This explained a lot.

This video is exactly what I was looking for a refresh on the nuances. This gameplay was an incredible sequence for teaching. I'd wholly recommend the next "intermediate" level of teaching gameplay for those that have a dozen games under the belt

Ive had this game in my collection for a year now but never came around to learn it. This was awesome! Thank you so much, thank you for the help🎉

This is great! There aren't enough how to play videos for this game, which--as you said--is still gaining players! Thanks for making this.

I have not had a lot of time to play recently, so I needed to watch a refresher video before I played again. This video was incredibly helpful. Thanks!

Thanks so much for this. Having stepped away from the game for a while this was a great refresher!

I've watched a few tutorial videos now and I think this one is my favorite. Very detailed explanations with live gameplay are fantastic.

The way break down your moves and explanations is exactly how I wanted to. Create with my own YT channel. It’s perfection! You answer so many questions. I need you to explain gameplay of every game ever!

Thank you! I’d have been waiting for a post 1.5 how-to-play video.

Ive been wanting to play this game with some friends and even by myself but I could never understand it. I saw a lot of videos on how to play this game but this video is probably the first that explained the rules and the steps very well. Thank you.

Great video! I got this in a garage sale. After watching you, I can see why they didn't want it. It's not for everyone.

BEST tutorial of this game for a ," Noob"...,which, I am! Thank you.

Haven’t touched the game since sinister motives but I kept buying everything for it and finally got around to opening and organizing all the new stuff so I could play again. Was dreading having to dive into 1.5 and figure out everything new but this was very helpful and a great refresher.

This was the most helpful video Ive seen. Im about to play this game with my friends! Thank you!

Great teach. Thank you for the video. Just a tip if you were ever to do another one: you should use the tokens, HP dials and status cards that come with the game. Some new players could be confused by the fact that they don’t have the same (upgraded) components as you are using. Also, it would help in the learning process to actually see what it would look like when they are playing the game with the included components.

Thanks for the video. I have played about 15 times now, and I still learned some things I wasn't always thinking about.

Great video. Finally figured out why the game felt so difficult! I appreciate the help!

Just got into the game and I’m obsessed. Love your channel as well for content

Nice job! Haven’t played in about a year, and this was the perfect refresher!

Best how to play video for MC I've seen

Excellent explanation - the best I have seen for Marvel Champions!

Well done sir. Great intro video. I just realized ive been giving Klaw two boost cards for his SCM as well... oops 😂

Hello! Anyone, please chime-in!!! When using Great Responsibility 0 card, after you avoid threat and choose to take as damage, do you use the thwart value or attk value with the boost card? Must be in hero form to use this card, I believe. So, this scheme deflect (if you will) is played when a treachery card - “Villan Schemes”

This was terrific. Thanks for the updated rules play through!

Just got into the game pretty hard myself. I havent played an LCG since OG Cyberpunk. Haha. I love deck building in these games.

Just got the game, fantastic tutorial. Thanks!

Great video! I just bought Marvel Champions but have not yet opened the box. But I will tomorrow. I was looking around for a cool super hero game and decided to try this one. I stopped playing Magic the Gathering months ago. It just became too boring for my taste. So onward to some new fun!

I wish I could play as fast as you! Lol last time I played took me 3hrs going over rules again and losing of course lol.

Nice vídeo, just one not, when you check hand size at the end of player phase, if you have more cards than your size limit you would discard. Page 18 of the rules reference

Great refresher

Way to go! Great video!

I really like your channel. I want to give a little background so you don’t think I am an idiot I have been playing board games since 1965. Back when I could get a game for about $10 and they had 4 page rules. Its true. The were military simulation games from Avalon Hill. Games have advanced and I play Advanced Squad Leader. I am willing to bet nobody here has ever played it. I bring it up because is one of the most detailed and complex games out there. But yet I struggle with Marvel Champions & Lord of the Rings. Both of these are similar. I just finished my first game of Spiderman ve Rhino that I won. I am know trying Ironman vs Klaw. First game bad. Right off the bat I had two schemes and a minion out. Anyway where I have my problems with both games is the cards. I find no mater what I do I have questions about every card that comes up and then later I find out I made a mistake. I did make it through the 1st scenario of LOTR btw. I do find this a little frustrating. I do want to say I admire the designers for the amount of work they put in. I dose seem to me they could have made a beginner one time scenario were you pick any hero just the basic cards no enemies, no side schemes. Maybe Rhino as he seem pretty basic just his cards and his basics. It probably would not be very satisfying but when you play the same game you add the side schemes, then the aspects that way you get a feel for the play in a segmented fashion? I do feel its a way to get younger player into it easier.

Can't wait to watch this!

Thanks for this refresher

This was great! Much appreciated for a refresh! Thanks!

This is a top notch video.

Thank you.

Thank god for this man. The rule book is kind a confusing.

LOL...just got into this game. :)

12:30 I tell new players they look for Hero Specific Upgrade/Support in their opening hand.

Great video. Thanks for taking the time to do it.

Awesome video and nice way to explain a lot of the rules in a dynamic way! The only thing I’m not sure was played 100% correctly after the 1.5 rules is the boost icon of Sonic Boom around 32:30. As I understood the new rules, the damage is dealt to Spider-man even if he avoids taking it, so the character should be exhausted. I could be wrong though as I’m still not super familiar with the latest rules. This is different from previous rulings so I don’t think new players should care too much about it if they play it as you did in the video.

39:08 why does he scheme + have another boost to the scheme. I thought his force interrupt was that when he attacks give him 1 additional boost card but this isn’t an attack.

cool video, probably the best ive watched so far for marvel i am coming from arkham and the lotre lcg so already got a fair amount of background knowledge on how these games work, interesting to see that you prefer true solo? i am thinking of starting out 2 handed assuming that it would open up mechanics between 2 decks like in other lcgs? or maybe i should start out true solo for a while and keep it simple

Do you use hit point dials now d20?! lol jk haha aged perfectly. (For those who don’t know d20 is now sponsored by buy the same token and they just came out with some awesome hit point dials 😂) love ya my man I was showing this video to a friend to go over more of the rules of the game as he’s interested in playing as well. Question though do you still prefer tokens even with the new dials out? Haha

Not sure if there is already one, maybe have a video about multiple player game. e.g. how you defense for other player, and what action you can take in another player's turn.

Are you going to do another video for the 1.6 rules? 😉

Should've probably included the word UPDATED in teh title for the YT algo

Excellent!

Great video! Thank you. Small thing I noticed and I could be wrong, but I thought you draw cards first then ready all cards at the end of the player phase?

This was so helpful!!

Thx for the video! Helped me a lot!A question please: Can I exhaust an in-play ally for resource?

I would like one video with 2players to see the defense with 1.5 rules and the focus in defense.i want to see in differnte situations

Those counters 🥰 Where are they from? Great tutorial by the way! Really helped me

32:22 questions about damages In rules 1.5 When the amount of damage a character takes is moditied (such as by damage being prevented), the amount of damage dealt is not modified. Is that mean spider man get stunned?

where did you get these token? They’re so beautiful!

Excellent teach

Great video!

Very tempted to get into this game. Does the core set box, now contain the updated rule set?

When Klaw would attack Spiderman while webbed up, does that trigger Spiderman's interrupt ability to draw a card?

Trying to learn: I'm at about the 36 min mark. Spider man was exhausted by defending 3, but you can still play all the cards in your hand? I guess I dont understand the point of being exhausted. I get summoning Daredevil, but how could you play the Swinging Web Kick (Isn't that an attack?)

Very basic question about Pete's ability to generate 1 resource: does it only generate for a card that I play immediately? Or does it generate, "floats in limbo", I can flip to Spidey and use that resource to pay for a hero event, for example?

Rules 1.5? Are they printing the core game with these?

Even when you are teaching the game you draw shadows… 😄

What happens now if you discard the obligation in the villain setup?

We need a video on "take damage" vs "deal damage," They should be the same but I don't know the difference even when reading the 1.5 rules.

How do you get daredevil?

I've owned this game since like late 2019 early 2020 and I only played it once I couldn't remember why I didn't like it just that I didn't. After watching this video I definitely remember why, the game was incredibly competent and worked well but it just wasn't fun or thematic for me.

Can you exhaust spider man then flip him over to peter?

With the card (Surveillance team) can I remove 3 threats at the same time?

Newbie here . This Spidey card that deals 8 Damage, looks to be a bit overpowering. Again, I might be wrong but that card alone almost took Klaw out .

Hi everyone! Can someone please tell me where to get the card holding and tokens placing tray he’s using in the video? I’ve tried and I can’t find it. A link would be great!

What is the link for the tokens that you use

small note: Shouldnt obligation be shuffled after Villain setup?

Great teach. Can you share your sleeve brand used?

are you sure you can use the card that did 8 damage without atacking at the same time with spider man?
