My impression is that it’s surreal… and too far away. On the upside, I’ve managed to convince a friend of mine to give VS a whirl (a girl no less). No expectations, but cross your fingers.
Game itself: Pretty solid. Obviously, being the first raid-style deck for VS, it’s had it’s fair share of hiccups (Worldeater card-names, not explaining about being able to team-attack/reinforce) but I think there’s a definite scope for making it even better in the next Giant-Size set.
Cards: Ample trading material for those Magneto cards I need
The cards are awesome, dont let my previous comment fool you, it is just I dont see galactus as a big enough threat, I dont know how, but he doesnt seem powerful enough.

My name is Rian Fike. I am an artist and teacher in Miami. I write a weekly column for Upper Deck about their trading card game called Vs. System, which revolves around the superheroic modern myths of the comic books. This site is an attempt to give you a small twisted window into the life of someone who is completely controlled by chaotic creativity.

Its hot, but the problem with it is that after a few games, it kinda tires.

I can see that, although there are quite a few cards that look good enough to last a very long time.
Pathetic Attempt and Omnipotence, especially.
