Legends Quartet

What happens when the top players in German club soccer meet - clear victory for the top scorer or a surprising defeat after all? Decisive this time is not "auf'm Platz", decisive in this game are the key figures with which the footballers compete against each other. "Give me the cherry!" Lothar "Emma" Emmerich once demanded of his teammates - but will his energetic approach help him when he now meets overhead kick legend Klaus Fischer?
For the German soccer legends, this quartet game keeps track of the number of games they played in the 1st. and 2nd Bundesliga or in the Oberliga, in addition the number of goals for the club to which the player is assigned here, his goal coefficient, the number of his national and international titles and finally the number of his international matches and goals scored therein. And already Fritz Walter plays with fresh verve even dribble king Pierre "Litti" Littbarski out - and who knows, maybe "Schweini" can stop the "Bomber of the Nation" yet.

40 cards, 40 top international athletes in each discipline - and no two duels are the same. Who will triumph? In keeping with the well-known peculiarity of sport - anything is possible - clashes with extremely unusual outcomes develop when Boom Boom Boris competes against "Mother Freedom" Billie Jean King or Miguel "The Extraterrestrial" Indurain is pitted against Louison "Zonzon" Bobet. The rules of the Super Trump Quartet game are not difficult to figure out: The card with the higher-value code wins. Unexpectedly, even the greatest representatives of their sport are not necessarily as unbeatable as one initially assumed. It quickly becomes clear once again: after the game is before the game.

As outstanding as the achievements of the respective sports legends are, as unusual are their likenesses. Renowned artists from Switzerland and Germany are responsible for the illustrations of the quartet of legends. Grouped into ten teams of four team members each, the cards not only highlight the athletes' characteristics. Rather, they illustrate in a special way the diverse approaches that modern art has to offer. In other words, you can't just play with the cards. You can also simply enjoy looking at them.
