SPIDER-MAN AND THE
SYMBIOTE TOKENS
When Venom vanquishes any Spider-Man Hero,
he relocates Spider-Man to any location in
Venom's Domain.
To win, Venom must lower a
Spider-Man Hero's Strength
to 0 using Symbiote tokens,
and the Spider-Man Hero must
be in Venom's Domain. When
a Spider-Man Symbiote token
is placed on Spider-Man, it
acts as a +1 Strength token.
Symbiote Suit can flip Symbiote tokens to the
Spider-Man side. Venom will need to overcome
or change these tokens to win the game.
If more than one Spider-Man Hero is in play,
Venom only needs to reduce one of their
strengths to 0 to win the game. A Spider-Man
Hero is any Hero with "Spider-Man" in
their name.
Scarlet Spider
Scarlet Spider may take up to
four Venom Symbiote tokens
from one Spider-Man Hero.
Whoever plays Scarlet Spider
choses how many Symbiote
tokens from which Spider-Man
Hero to place on him after
playing the Hero. Spider-Man
Symbiote tokens cannot be
placed on Scarlet Spider.
Symbiote Suit
Symbiote Suit can be used in
two different ways depending
on which Domain it is played
to. If played or relocated into
Venom's Domain, Symbiote
Suit acts as an Effect and is
immediately discarded after
its Ability is used. If played to
any other Domain, Symbiote Suit is played as
a Hero. Symbiote tokens may be placed on
Symbiote Suit. This increases the Strength of
the Event by 1.

VENOM'S OBJECTIVE
Use Symbiote tokens to reduce any Spider-Man in your Domain to 0 Strength.
To achieve his objective Venom must have more Venom Symbiote tokens on Spider-Man than Spider-Man's current Strength. Spider-Man must be in Venom's Domain for Venom to win.
SPECIAL SETUP
Place the Symbiote tokens with the Venom side facing up in a pile near your Domain. This the Symbiote pool.
Symbiote Pool
SYMBIOTE TOKENS
Symbiote tokens have two different sides: a Venom side and a Spider-Man side. The Venom side shows a Symbiote bonded with Eddie Brock. Unless stated otherwise, all Symbiote tokens are played with the Venom side facing up. The Spider-Man side shows a Symbiote that prefers to bond with Spider-Man.
Some cards like Internal Struggle and You are Not Innocent as well as Allies Lasher and Agony, allow you to directly place Symbiote Tokens on Heroes.
USING SYMBIOTE TOKENS
A Symbiote token is considered to be in play if it is placed on card in play. Symbiote tokens in the pool are not in play.
Symbiote tokens have two uses. First, if an Ally with a Symbiote token is defeated or used to resolve an Event, you may return the Symbiote token to the pool rather than discarding the Ally. Second, you may weaken characters other than Symbiotes using Venom Symbiote tokens. When a Symbiote token is placed on a character with the Venom side facing up, it acts as a -1 Strength token. When the Hero is defeated or removed, the Symbiote token is returned to the pool.
