The Marvel Team-Up Alter Ego Marquee Event is coming to a store near you! From June 15 through July 1, stores will be holding Constructed tournaments that use these new Alter Ego cards in which only the Marvel Team-Up set is legal. Players may choose any one of the eight different Alter Egos to bring to the tournament. Each Alter Ego has a “personality”—its individual starting endurance and a power that bends the rules of the game—that affects the game from the outset. Figure out which Alter Ego card best complements your favorite deck, or better yet, design a deck to take advantage of your favorite Alter Ego! You can print out these Alter Ego cards from the PDF files below, and official UDE oversized versions will be given out to top finishers.

Edit:

for those that can not see the Ego cards.

Spider-Man
40
At the start of the combat phase, each opponent exhausts a ready character he controls.

Spider-Man
45
At the start of the recovery phase, you man choose a character. That character can’t ready this turn.

Venom
50
Your opponents don’t have support rows.

Mephisto
45
You may recover an additional character each recovery phase.

Green Goblin
55
Each player may build an additional resource during the first build phase.

Sandman
35
You can’t take stun endurance loss.

Hulk
75
At the start of your attack step, choose a character. Other characters you control can’t attack this turn.

Dr. Octopus
35
You draw an additional card each draw phase.

Sounds pretty cool!

Looks like we noticed this at same time :) - you beat me by a couple minutes :)

Ya i have been out of town for the last 5 days, and just looking. I spent about 30 mins on this site trying to fig out why there was not a thread for it.

Oh and above i did edit in what the alter ego cards are. Sandman looks silly.

aside from the lack of a side deck, this reminds me alot of the sensei deck cards that were in the DBZ/GT tcg.
in such a limited formate, it wouldn't be a killer to "sensei"-in cards between rounds right?

I can't wait to break sensational spider-ego.

Looks like a crap-ton of fun. I would love to play, but I'm pretty sure I'll run into the same problems I fear most players will. This event runs on the three worst weekends. Elite Series and pre-release. Hopefully they will be planned around them.

No playmat this time around I guess.

I also wish there would have been something other than Legacy of Evil. How about Aunt May :)

Very cool, this seems like it could be a lot of fun ... and this might be hinting at what is coming with the Legend sets perhaps? However, I feel these are designed with this set in mind ... in a larger format there would definately be some problems. But I would love to have an X-Statix Hulk deck ;)

The oversized versions of those cards would be the additional card support in that respect.

And "Official UDE oversized versions" seems like an interesting choice of words ...

Wow, Venom seems to be pretty strong. No natural reinforcement.

I would play Venom in an aggro deck... no more of that Checkmate Safehouse brickwalling shenanigizing!

Looks like stall FTW

you can only use MTU cards...hello SinSyn rush ftw...

Isn't Marvel Team-Up the only legal set in this format?

Venom, Green Goblin, and Mephisto are the best out of all of them.

The Spider-men come in a close second. Hulk is a maybe. His ability is trashy, but may be worthwhile for is massive END. Who knows.
