This is practically one of the games that's been catching a lot of attention lately. Especially here in my country (Philippines). I'm planning to host a tournament myself.
I didn't even realize this was coming out until I walked past it at Essen Spiel. Picked it up right away. This rules video came just at the right time. 😅
Thanks for the video. As always a very good explanation. Very happy I got my first edition not that long ago. With the special foil cards in there. Still haven't gotten to playing it, been kind of putting it off, because I would have to learn the rules and such. This helps a lot though. You really know how to explain the rules very simple and concise. Making it easier to understand than most others that explain board games. :D
Man you've really mastered that trademark box throw at the beginning (and picking the box with one hand without looking)... Amazing rotation with the title perfectly displayed on camera... Just curious: how many takes does it take you on average to do it so perfectly?!! Love it...
@@WatchItPlayed it's impossible that you get it perfectly on the first video take everytime, not with the title perfectly oriented like that, no way... It's perfect on every video... You know what: you should have a blooper video where you show all the misses, it would be hilarious!!
Love it! Quick question: during combat with a villain or minion, if the hoax/reshuffle card is pulled as its attack or defense card, are the zero values used as their attack or defense card? Or is a new card drawn? Or is it regarded as a more powerful "feint" and you just completely miss the defending minion or villain? It just seems strange thematically to be attacking a hoax.
Hi Rob - you would use it's printed attack and defense values (zero). Only once the card is going to the discard pile is it's reshuffle effect triggered.
JUST got this today via UPS, I was a backer on Kickstarter since I'm a huge fan of the series Unmatched...I'm trying to get all the ones available and I'm doing pretty good...I need the other Marvel ones aside from Teen Spirit and I need the Oda Nobunaga vs Tomoe Gozen coming out later...so I'm doing pretty good on getting everything together. Glad I got Deadpool and Bruce Lee early on when is tarted collecting the series...they sell out on the main Mondo and Restoration Games sites pretty quick.
Great video! I have a really specific question: Black Panther has several card effects that let him take an opponents card to store in his vibranium suit. Would that work against villains or minions? Especially for the deception cards...
I do my best to answer all rules questions on the games I cover, but I avoid individual card effects, as that's a level of detail beyond what I can manage across all the videos I do. I'd suggest checking the rules forum for the game on BoardGameGeek or the publishers website. I hope you can find your answer there - have fun playing!
An FAQ on the Kickstarter page for Unmatched Adventures addresses Black Panther specifically: "A few heroes are not suitable to play against the villains due to the player interaction required, e.g., Black Panther from the upcoming Marvel - For King and Country set." (So, yeah, Black Panther not really playable in this mode, unfortunately).

I looked online and BGG and found nothing of use. I have a question. Golden bat card “like a flash of golden light” if golden bat shares no zones with the space he started this turn in, this cards value is 4 instead. Dose that mean in defence as long as he is not in the same zone as another fighter the card is worth 4?

Hello, I was wondering about a rule I haven't found; from either the PDF of the Rulebook or this Video. I can't seem to find a rule on Exhausted Decks, is that in this Version, or is this Version Different?
Do you mean in regards to exhausted player decks? That's part of the core Unmatched rules that aren't different from competitive Unmatched. Since that works the same way, it's not covered in the rules for this mode, or this video (but you'll find it in this games included competitive rules, and the competitive rules tutorial video). Hope that helps!
I don't recall what the video says by memory, but if it doesn't say that the rule has changed in this mode, then it's the same as in the competitive mode.
I've never even heard of this game but here I am watching your video. Your videos are so pleasant to watch. You give off such a positive vibe.
That's really nice of you to say Dale - thanks for your positive vibes as well!

Just got my Kickstarter delivered and I knew right away to come here. It certainly helps having a thorough understanding of the Unmatched gameplay.

Are you suggesting it's not the first time... every time? *gasp*

@@gaillardlionel I have one 😉 czcams.com/video/9WXTNh3fsM0/video.html
It finally made it to stores where I am, so time for a refresher!
Glad you tracked down a copy - have fun playing!
Thanks for making this Rodney!
I hope you have fun playing Patrick (I love your avatar :) ).
Love this, my copy comes in tomorrow!!!
I hope you have a great time playing!
Thanks for the correction!
Appreciate you saying so!
I wish I could like this multiple times. Thanks for the video
You're very welcome - have a great time playing!
For sure I'm choosing the Skunk Ape. It's the only valid first choice.
I credit your influence for my correct decision to pick the skunk ape for the video!
Thanks for the video! Really good!
Very glad you liked it Pedro!
Godzilla would of been top for the moth man theme
Great tutorial
Thank you kindly!
Great explanation as usual. This will come in handy when my friends come over to play. ❤
Have a great time playing!

I was wondering where the video went when I went to watch it!
Just wanted to make a slight wording correction :)
Rodney needs to play the MCU's Mr. Fantastic.
Hmmm....maybe a little biased with the Skunk Ape? I wonder why - lol!
You're onto me :)

Yeah, some of those early sets are going out of print. Have fun playing this new set!
I haven’t even gotten my email with my tracking number yet lol
@@richard7199Hopefully soon!
@@WatchItPlayed Hopefully! For now my wife and I will be content with videos like these so we hit the ground running.

Hey Rodney, another amazing video like always. Just a question, maybe there is a possibility for a video on Agricola?
Thanks for the interest! I talk a bit about that here: czcams.com/video/EdtDuvIUa6A/video.html&t=342
The characters can be played in the normal Unmatched?
Yep!
QUESTION:What happens if black panther takes the deception card and he puts it in his vibranium suit ?

@@WatchItPlayed Oh it's ok thank you anyway i checked and apparently it involves house ruling so ill just avoid that matchup 😅
Please do King’s Dilemma!
Thanks for the interest!
Any recommendations for the best sets to add to this one?
I've stuck with the core included sets, so I'm not sure.

Alrighty, Thank You so much and YEESH… That can get real stressful, real quick…
I'm having a hard time figuring out if the UFO moves on the invasions turns and how far. Nothing in the rule book.... Help please!
You might want to take that question to the BGG forums - I didn't cover that part in the tutorial, so I don't know the answer either.
@@WatchItPlayed thanks so much for getting back to me. Turns out I was missing the main Martian invasion card for that deck.
@@stevenbloom8884 Glad you got it sorted :)
Will Paula be playing this solo on the channel?
Hey Rob, we don't pre-announce videos before their air, but thanks for the interest!
@WatchItPlayed I'll take that as a strong maybe!!
If you run out of cards, do you take damage like the standard unmatched or do you reshuffle your discarded deck?
I don't recall what the video says by memory, but if it doesn't say that the rule has changed in this mode, then it's the same as in the competitive mode.
