DAYS OF FUTURE PAST SEASON PASS
Days of Future Past explores our favorite dystopian timeline – or should we say timelines? Driven by the Prime Directive, Sentinels have taken power and eliminated nearly all mutantkind. This season adds the most advanced Sentinel prototype to ever exist, the apex mutant-hunter himself: Nimrod. Nimrod is the perfect addition to all your past, present, and future Destroy decks.
NEW CHARACTER: NIMROD
THERE ARE MORE SEASONAL REWARDS!
BRAND NEW SERIES 5 CARDS
These new cards will be added to Series 5 and available to unlock on the Collection Level Track & Token Shop.
MASTER MOLD
Bolivar Trask created Master Mold in order to build an army of MK I Sentinels to control the mutant population. However, this version was damaged when the X-Men destroyed the Sentinel Headquarters.
NEGASONIC TEENAGE WARHEAD
Ellie Phimister AKA Negasonic Teenage Warhead was a teenage student in Emma Frost's telepathy class in Genosha. During a tutoring session, Ellie informed Emma Frost of the same nightmares she had 50 times the previous night when everyone in Genosha died. Instantly after she reported this to Miss Frost, Cassandra Nova's Sentinels appeared and wiped out all of Genosha. Emma Frost, who survived the attack thanks to her secondary mutation, carried Ellie's dead body and said that she will be a credit to her family and the mutant race. Emma then ordered members of the rescue team to bring the girl back to life, but they stated that she had been dead for hours.
Recently, Ellie Phimister appeared to be alive and part of the Hellfire Club's new Inner Circle. However, it was revealed that the new Inner Circle was only projections from Emma Frost's mind due to extreme survivor's guilt. Recently, the true Ellie was revived with an alien techno organic virus, only to be sacrificed to Selene.
KITTY PRYDE
Katherine "Kitty" Pryde was a 13½-year old Jewish girl whose genius level intellect allowed her to take college-level courses despite her young age. Kitty led a fairly normal life until she began suffering headaches of steadily increasing intensity, which were a result of her emerging mutant power.
Kitty herself was unaware that she was a mutant until the afternoon that Emma Frost, then White Queen of the Hellfire Club, arrived to speak to her parents about enrolling Kitty in her Massachusetts Academy. During the visit, Kitty suffered her worst headache yet and went upstairs to her room. When the headache stopped, Kitty was surprised to find she was on the floor of her living room. She had unknowingly used her power to phase through solid matter for the first time, passing through her bed and floor into the room below.
After Frost left, Professor Charles Xavier arrived with three of the X-Men, his own team of mutant students who fought for peaceful coexistence between humans and mutants. Following an attack by the Hellfire Club during which Kitty helped the team, the X-Man Phoenix telepathically coerced Kitty's parents into allowing her to join Xavier's school, and she became the newest and youngest member of the X-Men.

BRAND NEW LOCATIONS
Days of Future Past brings three new locations we can’t wait for you to visit… Unless you’re a mutant. Then you might want to take a rain check.
KRAKOA
In the mid-20th Century, atomic bomb testing took place on the South Pacific island Krakoa. Possibly due to the use of materials beyond just nuclear energy, all life on the island merged with the land itself, creating one enormous, singular entity.
ORCHIS FORGE
The Orchis Forge was a space station build by Orchis from the salvaged remains of Sol's Hammer. They retrofitted it into a site for the creation of a Mother Mold, an artificial intelligence developed to fight against mutantkind. Cyclops led an X-Men strike force to successfully destroy the Mother Mold, with heavy casualties on both sides.
ASTEROID M
Asteroid M is the name of any orbital space station created by the Magneto. Destroyed and reconstructed many times, each iteration had several levels including an observation deck, hangar bays, and medical facilities, along with technology that kept it concealed from standard detection technology and a stationary orbit around Earth.
- Orchis Forge: After you play a card here, add a Sentinel to your hand.
- Krakoa: On turn 5, takes over and plays both players’ cards for them.
- Asteroid M: After you play a 3 or 4-Cost card, move it here.
