Research direction

Start with the linked Marvel Super Heroes update bulletin and the current rules reference at magic.wizards.com/en/rules. Review the remaining unchecked items, especially phasing and last-known information, turning permanents face down, and Avenge when a player leaves the game. Done means the listed rule and Oracle changes are verified or implemented correctly.
