With major changes in deck strategies and progression rewards, players can expect a dynamic meta shift.

New Cards Shake Up the Meta

Sam Wilson, formerly Falcon, takes up the Captain America mantle in this season’s battle pass. His ability places Cap’s shield in a random location and gains power when moved. He works well with Ant-Man, Ka-Zar, and classic Captain America, enhancing ongoing decks.
