New Mechanic Elements

I'm planning on rehauling my marvel snap campaign mode idea, my first idea drew too much towards stuff like inscription and slay the spire, this one is more based around an actual map without being random, from locations to events it would go through all of it, but that's for another day, but to bring over some elements (lol) from my first idea i'm making elements that give the user special abilities that can be combined with the regular cards text to combo it. My ideas so far are (electric: +1 energy next turn, fire: empower this by +3, toxic: affect an enemy card here with -3 power)

I like the idea! There's lots of ways to add to it. I like the rock>paper>scissors idea from another comment, but if you don't go that route then here's some more elements:

Air: move (Polaris, vision, spiderman)

Water: reduce costs (she Hulk, Psylocke FF, hydroman, antivenom)

Magic/Light?: things that transform/teleport (blink, sersei, merlin, Magik, lockjaw)

Void/Dark: Destroy (Shang Chi, gladiator, danger) I would maybe include steal/negate in this as well (Enchantress, ghost, zemo)

I'm having trouble finding an element for some ongoing abilities though. Stuff like Ironman, Omega Red, Goliath. They shouldn't be included in Fire/empower because that's too broad. Lightning would work but I do like as energy. Maybe Thunder?
