Top 5 Marvel Champions Expansions

The Rise of the Red Skull expansion is my favorite expansion of all the expansions released so far. It just has so much content that you could just skip the normal hero and villain expansions and only get these expansions. Rise of the Red Skull comes with 2 heroes, 5 villains, modules, and a campaign that you can play through. I think while not the best heroes, they both have their own playstyle and probably suit most players. The villains all feel different to play against and come with a lot of ranging difficulty and replayability. This is the best expansion so far!

Doctor Strange introduced the Marvel Champions world to mythical powers. He comes with his own spell deck, which is different from your main deck. It contains very powerful spells that can easily turn the tide in battle. Thematically Doctor Strange is just amazing. You can make a control deck that blocks the damage of the villain and tries to combo his most powerful spells or you can make a combo deck that tries to cast multiple powerful spells in a single turn. Doctor Strange is a powerful hero, and I think he'll appeal to a lot of players. It might be a bit tricky to get him working sometimes, but when it does, it's very satisfying.

The Ant-Man hero pack is one of the latest expansions to be added to the game. He is very good overall and also has a unique mechanic. Instead of only having 2 forms (alter-ego & hero), Ant-Man has 3 forms in which he can grow huge or become as small as an ant. Each form has its own weakness and things it excels at. The huge form is able to deal lots of damage but in exchange for smaller hand size. While the small form is better at thwarting, but isn't able to do a lot of damage. This makes it one of the stronger expansions as he is so versatile.

Captain America was the first hero to be introduced as an expansion. This was kinda to be expected as he is such an iconic figure within the Marvel Universe. Captain America is a hero which has a very strong toolkit by itself. This means that he can fit into a lot of playstyles. However, this also means that he never really shines in each playstyle. He is just solid overall. That's not a bad thing, but it might be a bit boring for some players. I don't mind as he is solid enough to get through most villains.

The only villain expansion on this list. Green Goblin was also the first villain expansion for this game. While I think the first villain in this expansion is just very boring and not worth the time to play against, I think the second villain is a lot better. This villain focuses a lot of minions, which promotes some minion combat and I think that's a good thing. He is also just very difficult with the right modules which I think the game was kinda lacking before this expansion. While the villains aren't that great as Rise of the Red Skull, I still feel like this is a very solid villain expansion.
