About the game

What you do in a play session

Ever felt the urge to smash everything in your path in the name of relentless vengeance? That's exactly the vibe you get when bringing Drax to your table! This Hero Pack introduces the tough-as-nails warrior from the Guardians of the Galaxy into the Marvel Champions universe, shifting the combat dynamic with his signature fury. If you love characters who can soak up massive damage and hit back twice as hard, Drax is your guy.

The pack delivers more than just a character; it provides the full kit needed to jump straight into the fight. You'll get 15 unique Drax signature cards that define his playstyle, focusing on punishing villains who dare to strike. Additionally, it comes with a pre-constructed Protection deck. This means you don't have to spend hours tinkering with your first build; just open the box, set it up, and start slashing through enemies.

Playing as Drax is all about being the team's 'wall.' While other heroes might focus on complex tactics or support, Drax shines by absorbing hits and converting that rage into offensive power. He's the perfect choice for players who want to feel the weight of the combat and ensure the team survives while he handles things with raw strength (and a few knives). If you already own the base game and want to expand your roster with an aggressive tank full of personality, this pack is a must-have. Get ready to show the villains why Drax is a force of nature that simply cannot be stopped!
