All ten draft archetypes are back
After three sets running the five-archetype model, Marvel Super Heroes returns to a full ten two-color pairs — one for every guild, each anchored by a gold signpost uncommon.
Tapping Down (Teamwork)
Azorius · Control / Tempo
The set's weakest link by most early reviews — vigilance and tap effects with a noncreature-spell shell that hasn't fully clicked yet. Worth drafting only with strong open signals.
Signpost: Captain America, Living Legend
Draw Two a Turn (Connive)
Dimir · Villain Control
A grindy Villain-control deck that loots relentlessly with connive, then buries the opponent in card advantage. Widely rated one of the format's strongest archetypes.
Villains
Rakdos · Aggro
Straightforward Villain typal aggro — Madame Hydra spits out 2/1 menace tokens every time you cast one, and this pair has no shortage of Villains to feed her.
Power-Ups
Gruul · Midrange / Stompy
Go big with a discount — Hulk, Gamma Goliath knocks 3 mana off every Power-up activation, turning a deck full of below-curve creatures into a stampede.
Signpost: Hulk, Gamma Goliath
Heroes
Selesnya · Go-Wide Aggro
Go-wide Hero typal aggro. Roughly 80% of creatures in these colors are Heroes, so the deck basically builds itself — just keep casting Heroes and swinging.
Signpost: Black Panther, Vanguard
Attacking Alone
Orzhov · Unblocked Aggro
A tricky, high-ceiling archetype that rewards sending a single big threat in unblocked. Also picks up a side theme of equipment synergies.
Signpost: Black Widow, Double Agent
Two Creatures to the Yard
Golgari · Sacrifice / Recursion
A sacrifice-and-recursion shell that wants creatures dying on both sides of the board — Killmonger trades a creature for the right to kill something better.
Signpost: Killmonger, Scourge of Wakanda
+1/+1 Counters
Simic · Counters Value
A counters build-around that churns out Insect tokens off any +1/+1 counter placed — including the ones your Power-up creatures are already making.
Signpost: Ant-Man, Colony Commander
Artifacts
Izzet · Artifacts Value
A break from Izzet's usual spellslinging identity — this is the set's artifact-matters deck, rewarded for playing and casting as many artifacts as possible.
Signpost: Iron Man, Master of Machines
Noncreature Spells
Boros · Spells Aggro
Prowess and heroic payoffs for a spell-heavy aggro shell. Thor Odinson turns every noncreature spell into a +2/+2 pump, twice per spell.
