Overview

  • Wizards of the Coast revealed the full Spider-Man set at San Diego Comic-Con, showcasing transforming cards for leading heroes such as Peter Parker, Miles Morales and Gwen Stacy that flip between civilian and hero forms.
  • The set debuts a web-slinging mechanic allowing players to cast cards at reduced mana costs by returning tapped creatures to their hand.
  • Five beginner-focused welcome decks feature characters like Spider-Man 2099 and Venom and include cards that are legal for casual play but excluded from Standard tournaments.
  • Spider-Man becomes the first Universes Beyond crossover to remove the triangular card frame and introduce variant treatments such as stylized webbing borders and comic-panel-inspired alternate art.
