Two-Headed Giant
Magic: The Gathering® | Marvel Super Heroes arrives on June 26, 2026, and it brings everything you love about the Marvel Universe to the game of Magic. While the set’s Prerelease events kick off on June 19, this set is making a Super Hero landing on June 14 for a new event: Avengers Academy. This new event is the perfect way to welcome your friends into the world of Magic with the power of the Marvel Universe.
This event is designed to help new players learn the ins and outs of Magic alongside an experienced teammate. Players will receive a Magic: The Gathering | Marvel Super Heroes Welcome Deck and play in Two-Headed Giant matches alongside a teammate. If you’ve been playing for years and want to introduce the Marvel fans in your life to Magic, this is the place to do it!
Two-Headed Giant makes for a true team-up experience where you and your teammate face your foes together (like our favorite Super Hero teams). If you’ve never played Two-Headed Giant before, it’s a great way to learn to play or teach a friend
Each Welcome Deck contains two 30-card half-decks. Each 30-card half-deck is themed around a Marvel Character—Black Panther, Iron Man, Black Widow, Spider-Man, or the Hulk—and a color of Magic. Your Welcome Deck will contain the 30-card half-deck featuring the character on the package and another 30-card half-deck of a different color. Welcome Decks are available from your local game store while supplies last. We’ll reveal the contents of these decks in the future, so stay tuned!
For this event, you and your teammate will each play with one of your 30-card half-decks. This will keep the games simple (and put the focus on your Super Hero of choice). After the event, you can combine your two half-decks together to assemble a 60-card two-color deck.
This is a super-casual (and super-powered) event. There are no rounds, standings, or ranked prizes. Instead, you can focus on what really matters: playing Magic with your favorite Super Heroes from the Marvel Universe! At the end of the event, you get to keep your Welcome Deck. Once the full set releases on June 26, you can start adding cards from the rest of Magic: The Gathering | Marvel Super Heroes.
