The Guardians of the Globe were the Earth's mightiest heroes-- and then Omni-Man killed them all. Oops!

After that tragedy, the government scrambled to find replacements for them, but it wasn't easy-- the younger heroes lacked the experience and the raw power of their elders, and the new team just isn't what the old one was. But hey, they're trying! And, yaknow... failing. Often.

These are the cards I whipped up to represent them in the bestest TCG ever, VS system! Yaaaaaaaay! :)

The GotG team specializes in the Substitute mechanic; but unlike past Substitute teams, which focused on entering play, the Guardians are more focused on the people who are leaving. The "original" Guardians are designed to be recruited and used for one turn, and then horrifically murdered and replaced by a younger equivalent. On their way out, they pass a powerful bonus of some sort to their successor. Aaaaaaand... that's pretty much it. The Guardians aren't tremendously complicated-- you play a Founder, sub someone over him, and smash face. Easy enough, right? :)
