For a great Unmatched Adventures set, we needed a property with four awesome heroes, some captivating villains, and a host of other colorful characters. The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was the perfect matchup for that checklist!
Growing up with the cartoon and the comics, most folks have a favorite Turtle. They each have such distinct personalities. The design team crafted each Turtle deck to match that, so whichever Turtle is your favorite, there’s a playstyle for every fan.
Leonardo: The Tactical Leader
Leonardo excels at coordination and control, rewarding players who think a step ahead. His deck emphasizes positioning, efficient attacks, and teamwork, making him a natural anchor for the group. Leo shines when supporting allies and setting up clean engagements, helping the team stay focused and effective as the action heats up. At the start of his turn Leo can move any fighter up to one space. It can be a friendly or opposing fighter, allowing you to get the perfect positioning for the next battle.
Raphael: The Aggressive Brawler
Raphael is all about getting in close and hitting hard. His playstyle favors direct confrontation, high-impact attacks, and aggressive momentum. Raph players will feel right at home charging into danger, trading blows, and keeping pressure on enemies — perfect for players who like bold moves and decisive turns. On each turn, the first time Raphael loses combat he’ll gain an action. But don’t worry, it’ll be payback time with many of his cards having effects that trigger if he lost before.
Donatello: The Strategic Specialist
Donatello rewards careful planning and clever play. His deck leans into control, utility, and problem-solving, offering tools that manipulate the battlefield and outthink enemies. Donnie is ideal for players who enjoy optimizing turns, supporting teammates in subtle ways, and finding creative solutions to tough situations. Donatello has three invention cards that can add bonuses to attack, defense, and scheming once they’re in play. With this kit he’s a force to be reckoned with!
Michelangelo: The Agile Wild Card
Michelangelo brings speed, flexibility, and a bit of chaos to the team. His deck encourages movement, opportunistic strikes, and playful unpredictability. Mikey excels at darting around the board quickly on his skateboard, adapting to changing situations, and turning unexpected moments into big wins — all while keeping things fun and fast-paced. His starting hand size is smaller, bringing a different strategic method than the other Turtles. Michelangelo can cycle through cards and set up the perfect moment for a heavy hit.
So grab some pizza and a few friends and get ready for a totally radical game night with Unmatched Adventures: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, available now!
