Spider-Foes Sandman and Shocker Enter the Battle in Marvel Contest of Champions

The Contest continues with iconic Spider-Foes joining The Battlerealm. Kabam has introduced Sinister Six member Sandman and notorious thief Shocker in an all-new Champion Reveal Trailer–”Just to Get a Rep”–unveiling the new Champions coming to the popular mobile fighter MARVEL Contest of Champions. With over 240 Champions in The Contest, players can also add other legendary Marvel-inspired characters to their roster including Doctor Doom, Venom, Scorpion, Green Goblin and more!

Here is a quick look at what The Contest has in store this month:

Stumbling into The Battlerealm, Shocker and Sandman assume their best move is to reconnect with their partners in crime, the Sinister Six. However, they quickly find this strange world has more than just some familiar faces and old foes around!

CHARACTER BIOS

Once a petty criminal known as William Baker (a.k.a. Flint Marko), Sandman is a stalwart member of the Sinister Six and one of Spider-Man’s longest standing enemies. While on the run from the law, Baker was accidentally exposed to experimental radiation that destabilized his molecular make-up. Now, as the Sandman, he is capable of incredible acts of strength, can grow to massive sizes, and even shapeshift. He might not be the brightest of Spider-Man’s enemies, but he’s certainly the most imposing… as long as he can pull himself together.

A gifted engineer turned expert safecracker, Herman Schultz was just a small-time criminal until he was captured and incarcerated. While tinkering in the prison workshop, he managed to construct a pair of gauntlets capable of firing compressed air as destructive shockwaves. Adopting the title of the “Shocker” and blasting his way out of prison, Shocker’s criminal exploits have since been a constant thorn in the side of his nemesis, Spider-Man. Things don’t always go his way, but no one can fault Shocker’s stubborn tenacity.

Set your reminders! Shocker arrives in-game on April 13 and Sandman on April 27.
