A deck is 12 card singleton. Players play 6 simultaneous turns to 3 lanes. Winning 2 lanes wins the match. Matches are played for ladder ranks (cosmic cubes) and players can SNAP once per match to double the stakes (max 8 cubes).>What is a card series?Cards unlock in a random order, but specific cards are unlocked within specific collection level (CL) ranges: Series 1 cards (CL 18-214), Series 2 (222-474), and Series 3 (474+). Series 4 (Rare) and 5 (Super Rare) cards can be purchased directly with Collector’s Tokens that can also be used to buy Series 4 or 5 Snap Packs that are cheaper but dole out random cards from certain pools.>How can I increase my CL faster?Upgrade every card you get to green rarity (frame break) ASAP. Spend the rest of your credits how you like.>When should I snap?https://marvelsnapzone.com/the-ultimate-snapping-strategy-guide-for-marvel-snap/>Whose cards reveal first?The player who is currently winning reveals first.

>want to play a fun deck like destroy>only deck winning me any cubes is darkhawkit's all so tiresome
>>2004660Destroy is really good right now though
>>2003828Man that's such a good variant. Pretty good deal if you don't own WWBN too
The sound Zombie Power-Man makes when he discards a card bothers me
>A Victoria Hand variant finally shows up in my shop after fucking months of waiting>it's not the one i wantFIX YOUR FUCKING SHOP SD
>>2004812it's the best tho
>>2004855Nah i want this one
They really want me to buy anime Sera, I swear I see her at least every other vault
lol
>>2003548It really is. It's the own reason I usually don't upgrade cards once I get the split I like. Frame breaks lose so much of the image most of the time that they don't feel worth it.
>>2005101I hate how these cost extra gold.
>>2005101The only one I kinda want is Scarlett witch. But 2500 is a lot
Here the decks being used tomorrow on the golden gauntlet. 9AM EST
>>2005276how do you know what decks are being played before hand?
>>2005292It's an open deck tournament. So you have to submit the deck you are going to use beforehand.
Saturday, October 11th
>>2005328It's only for the official channel from what I understand. They are trying to see if they figured out how to get them to work again.
>>2005301so they can stack it?
>>2005276Fuck dude, i was going to join and i completely forgot. Oh well, this would have been at 6 AM for me anyways.
>>2005276Fucking grim.
>>2004855Agreed>>2004885>>2004812To each their own
>>2005509If a pink matte border existed it would go hard on this.
>>2005510Actually they really should release more matte borders. Don't we only have red and black?
>>2005516I mean the basic green, blue, and yellow ones are pretty matte-like already.
>>2005276How is Stardust even an archetype? Closest I can think of that I've seen is just your standard Wiccan curve into all tech cards
>>2005522I'm pretty sure that is like a tech Wiccan deck considering Wiccan isn't mentioned at all and Galactus FS isn't really an archetype but instead a card that goes in Wiccan. Weird way to name it I guess but there's multiple ways to build Wiccan
Drops are live:https://m.twitch.tv/marvelsnap
Round 1 Result: 8-0 vs Arishem gamer.
>>2005699it's not working though, i mean if you go to the inventory it looks like it hasn't started yet
>>2005699They sprung for Yipes on commentary. Nice
>>2005718nvm now it finally works
>>2005726anyone else got % stuck at 1?
Round 2 vs a surfer deck where my opponent has 2K CL. I feel like a bully.
Round 3 vs destroy player
>Alex had 2 Darkhawk decks in his top 10 last week>none this weekWhat happened
Currently 3-0 in the tourney. That match vs destroy was close as hell. He got altar of death/rickety bridge/sinister london/cloning vats all in a back to back to back games. Managed to clutch it out.
>>2005994What deck are you playing? Have you played on stream?
>>2006086this deck >>2005717I haven't played on stream. I'm now 4-0. opponentsArishemNegative SurferDestroyVHand
>>2006156Nice, keep it up. Move feels pretty strong right now
>no more yipes Time to mute
Holy shit this bald nigger is awful.
5-0Beat a Loki player with tech cards.
>>2006206wtf is this even?
Apparently I'm going to be on stream maybe next round.
Is anyone else unable to claim their rewards for this stream? I haven’t gotten boosters or the MV despite pressing both Claim Now buttons.
>>2006332Yeah it's bugged.
>>2005719>>2006187Wtf they actually had Yipes? what is he doing here
Never mind I will not have my game streamed.
>>2006380TOs are fucking lame, not wanting to show our boy
>>2006350He at least casually plays and is good for color commentary so I guess they hired him.
>>2006387I'm glad I didn't get streamed. I got stomped by Mr. Negative lol. 5-1
>>2006408How many games do you need to win to move onto day 2?
>>2006414I think they are doing the whole thing today. Usually 1 loss is the maximum amount you can afford to get to top 8. Sometimes you can squeak in with 2 losses.
Its guest is so ugly with his lazy eye
>>2005276Less Hela than i was expecting
>>2006545Stardust murdered Hela
After going 5-1 I finished 19th and missed out on top 16.
>>2006577Fucking how? it looks like top 16 has a worse/equal w/l as you.
>>2006584tie breakers go toward Opponent Win Percentage and then cubes I believe.
My OW% is 61%16th was 63% he also had 1 more cube than me.
>>2006591Damn I hate this company should be wins>cubes>opponent win rate.
99% I can stop giving these faggots a view very soon
I AM FREE NOW!
>>2006577Pretty good anon
I am dropping this game again in 2 days. Felles fucking good..
>>2006577RIP, at least you tried.
A lot of move in this tournament
Holy shit what a final turn from Sizer, it looked fucking over for him
I wonder if people randomly throwing in Mercury into decks she doesn't belong in is going to be a thing after all this move
>>2006671Damn he lost, i was kinda rooting for him
>>2004885>>2004812SD HEARD ME AND FINALLY GAVE ME WHAT I WANTED
I also kinda like this Nico but i don't really play her that often
>>2006686Probably. It's funny that I tech'd to counter mercury and never ran into one.
Welp 2 more days until I drop this game again. 1k tokens tomorrow and a mystery pool 5 on Monday.
Oh hey surprising no one drops are still not working, it unlinked my Snap and Twitch accounts, and trying to link Twitch leads to a broken webpage
>>2006782it should still track the time and give you the rewards, i have the same issues but i got my first reward a few minutes ago
>>2006686
>>2006782Working for me, guess i lucked out
why is everyone on frankie raye all of a sudden? did she have a good showing at the gauntlet?
>>2007229I don't think she showed up once. Probably just a weird run of games
>>2007229She's okay in Wiccan. I saw KMBest put her in some decks recently so maybe that's why
My stream randomly stopped playing. it's so over
>>2007251Hopefully they just give anyone the drops anyways since it was so buggy for everyone.
Some mod said the drops have been fixed but mine just froze and haven't moved in like an hour.
>>2007351the drops haven't been fixed. the mod lied to you. the one in discord are still saying they are broken.
They;re in the finals btw
>>2007385Nevermind, VERY quick Final. Move won in 3 games.
Winning deck. Prepare to see this everywhere for a few days
>>2007396I think the deck exists in a world where you see a lot of EOT. It can't really function without cosmic ghost rider
They better just give free rewards for the drops. Making it 1 day and not even making sure it works was so dumb. Not even short watch time either.
>vs 60k collection level player>perfect rng. Impossible to winWow good job hiding that paying let's you win more
>>2007571My shit straight up just stopped counting for no reason halfway through and I definitely had the stream open for more than 5 hours. So bullshit, some mod in chat kept insisting it was working and everyone was telling him it wasn't.
>>2005141
>>2007396What a dogshit deck, what the fuck.
>>2007687Cant be dogshit if it just won a tournament
>>2007711Tournament means jack shit, you play like 3 dudes. Bots will annihilate that deck.
>>2007715Who gives a shit about bots? This deck won at the most competitive form of marvel snap
>>2007716There's no competition in this game, no skill. It's all rng, and you're facing bots 90% or more in the actual game.
>>2007717>There's no competition in this gameHe says on the day a huge tournament just happened
>>2007715>you play like 3 dudesBro someone in this thread went 5-1 and didn't even make top 16.I hate having to defend this shit game.
>>2004660Sometimes your favorite deck is just going to be hard to win with. At least destroy is always getting some support so you'll be fine. I've been glued to Clea myself lately and while it's rough out there sometimes it still does work. Even if it's ceiling is a lot smaller.
I've gotten enough games in where I can say that this is a nice archetype to slot zcarlet into. T4 comboing agony and prodigy is potent.
>>2007416Justified. I thought EOT was pretty evil before, but trying out for myself, I now know it is. Just look at this. Yes, Destroyer is a bit of a meme, but 2/3 of these locations (Sakaar brought down their Carnage and my Bob if you want to know) were primed for Destroy to win, and it still lost.
>>2008376The consistency of EOT is silly and Jocasta raised its points ceiling to crazy heights. One of the reasons you see so much destroy is because it naturally runs killmonger, which hits the sunspots/black cats/bobs. You can also run a LDS to deal with Thena/Marvel Boy/Jocasta
Is Ms Marvel worth picking up?
>>2008390Jocasta also has the potential to dodge Supergiant as you can just put the activate card you wanted to use on her lane in turn 6, though this is a rare benefit as the current decks that use Supergiant usually have Alioth as a finisher.
So nothing about twitch drops?
>>2008615It is still broken. Not sure when it will be fixed.
>>2008454Not really at the moment. She is kind of meh. I think she is only in C5 the weakest of the cerebro decks
>>2008615You expect SD to give a shit?
>>2008697Shame. I remember she used to be pretty good
Hey guys, just got out of a two and a half year long coma, still waiting on my game to update but I'm super excited to fill my collection now that most of the game is series three and then level that collection with booster vats and magnets!
>>2007970The zombie Scarlet Witch really does fit naturally well into this kind of list so that's probably a good call. She snowballs fast with Strange Supreme. Does Elsa still feel worth it after her various nerfs?
>>2008615twtich fags are the cancer that kills all games
>>2008921It's kinda built around elsa too, she's often providing like 10+ power. When you get to prodigy her, it's often a win.
>>2007970i don't understand why you're running agony though
>>2009827She allows for prodigy combos where you have zcarlet out > agony >copy zcarlet.Also allows to get an additional slot open while also triggering angela + zcarlet on the same location, potent.She and kitty goes so well together.
>>2009832the webm isn't really that explicative, it'd make more sense if kitty was agony, probably what you mean is that you're using agony as a cheap 1 slot to play prodigy behind either scarlet or elsa, i gather prodigy ability resolves before agony otherwise it won't copy anything, right? also agony is good because you can keep playing in the same location triggering both scarlet
Why does this keep happening and how do i fix it? My stuff isn't saved on steam anyways, so i never lose anything but the popup is annoying.
>fist bump an Arishem player because it was a close game that i lost by one point.>he emote spams me anywaysLesson learned, never try to be cordial with anyone. Mute at the start of every game.
>>2009865snap doesn't use steam cloud so that popup doesn't make any sense, you probably have other issues on your steam install, also why on earth would you disable steam cloud anyway?
>>2009873I didn't disable anything, it just started happening for no reason.
Quake how I love you
>>2005276>Clog in a destroy heavy metaYou played yourself, anon.
>>2009911lmao good one
Rare interaction. Was hoping it would break somehow.
>forgot power zombie powerman was released>make my own deck>first game>get the best openerI will never get this again. Deck retired.
If it's bastion or jacosta I will still play.
>>2010439Bastion ended up kinda underwhelming desu
Damn what a nice variant, definitely pinning this
>>2010439Are we getting login rewards or is this your returning player thing
>>2010518It was my welcome back thing. Got Frankie nova. Looks like I'm just getting alliance rewards and dropping again.
>>2010547you can just buy those cards pretty easily now if you really want them
>>2010552No I don't think I will.
>>2010554What are you using tokens on then?
>>2010552"easily" is a big word when it comes down to "hope it shows up in the shop"
>>2010572the 4k s5 packs
>red guardians my card>i instantly retreat>instantly after the button was pressed the "opponent" retreatsThese bots are fucking cancer.
>>2011206I'm unsure why they even have the bots be able to retreat in the first place. If they're just there to pad out the ladder then why not just have them go all the way every time? It would let you test out dumb deck ideas to their fullest without having to worry of a human player realizing they lost two turns ago and mitigate the annoyance of having to deal with bots in the first place.
>>2011394Yeah, they are designed to be spiteful, kicking sandcastles, stall, everything bad. So retreating is a part of that.It's truly scummy and I think it might actually be illegal in some way, them not revealing it's bots and the fact it's a gambling game.
i was looking for Red Guardian and found out that looking up team names like Guardians of the Galaxy will bring up those cards. Interesting, wonder when they implemented that because none of these cards say Guardian in them
>>2011449Works for Avengers too
>>2011450X-Men, although not all of them show up
>>2011451Thunderbolts
>>2011452No Defenders, No Fantastic Four, No Heroes for Hire, No SHIELD so it's not fully fleshed out yet. Interesting though, wonder if they're planning something. Maybe another Avengers vs X-Men type of event. It seems very buggy, sometimes Bishop shows up and sometimes he doesn't for X-Men.
>>2011456I tried Mutant and that works, Inhuman doesn't though
>>2004629it took me a while but I finally find out we moved to /vm/>Official /snap/ Alliances: [VGS] /snap/, [VGS] /snap/'s Revenge, [VGS] /snap/'s Step Sistercan someone tell me what's the situation on /snap/ and /snap/'s revenge? step sister has like 10+ inactive members out of 26, I'm seriously thinking we should just disband and move the active members who are doing the bulk of the work for the rewards into the other two alliances, but we can only do that if there's enough space, I can look up how many spots there are available on /snap/ and /snap/'s revenge in the client but I can't know how many inactive players there are because I'm not part of them, we currently need at least 13 spots and just to be clear, I don't blame the inactive players, it's getting harder and harder to keep up, I'll gladly say that myself but there is no reason to make things even harder for people that decided to stick with the game
>>2011537Revenge is dead. Last time I posted about merging /snap/ and /sisters/, we apparently had too much people or something.
>>2011537>>2011565i mean looking at /snap/ right now there are 6 people with 0 point but a week isn't enough to rule out players expecially when you consider that this and the previous week are bugged, we should keep track for at least 2 or 3 weeks and then identify players that really stopped playing, then we can get new people in from /sister/
>>2011665what's the bug? is it the total alliance goal? because i know we occasionally miss the last reward but it's usually not a lot compared to the numbers that we've been off by the last 2 weeks
>>2010439>>2010503>got replaced by Moon Girl in most of the builds he was in.Not gonna lie. Kind of funny and very Bastion-coded to get thrashed that hard.
>>2011463>>2011452>>2011450>>2011449An upcoming limited mode has several team-affiliated cards given the [TEAM]: epithet and new abilities for said limited game mode. Maybe this was coded in as preparation for that.
>>2011685SD fucked up how many points are needed for the rewards so it's an absurd amount currently. We're getting this and last weeks rewards in the mail as a later date. No point in grinding recently.
>>2011685We actually would have gotten it last week AND this week but SD accidentally changed the amount required to make it way harder. Apparently they are changing it back and sending compensation
>>2011685they posted this 2 weeks ago
Patch is outBanana, Water, Bubbles, and Snowflakes have been removed from the pool for splits (for now)Moving cards via Madame Web has been updated to preserve card-inherent moves (ie, moving nightcrawler off Web will allow him to move himself later still, as opposed to previous functionality where it was consumed)
Marvel Snap is fucking saved
>>2011971>Banana have been removed from the pool for splits (for now)Holy fuck. It took way too long but they finally fucking did it.
>>2011971Holy fuck that Madame Web change finally. That shit bothered me since she released
>>2011449I guess this is both a hint at future stuff and left over from the limited boosted cars events.
>>2011971>>2011985Anyone else get a really bad feeling that the patch will screw up the Spotlight variant shop rotations?
>>2012020Why would it? The only thing they changed about the token shop was a small visual thing.
>https://snap.fan/news/october-patch/>another X-Men season (last month was an X-Men season, you know it was)>more “civilian identity” cards, including one for SwordmasterFor fuck’s sake.
>>2011717You were right.
>>2012035MORE MAGIK VARIANTS LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Oh nice Marrow is getting a card
Thank god the new Maria Hill variant got a release date and isn't part of some fucked up expensive bundle. Eagerly waiting for December now
Cop or Nah? This is like the only good Danger variant, and i actually really like playing her.
This game is so shit. The game won't load the shop for me.
>>2012148Update your game, patch dropped like an hour ago
>>2012153I did
Frosted Glass looks much better now
>>2012153>implying this shit game/company doesn't break something every update.
>>2012161I don't remember what it looked like before, i never used it.
>>2011537>>2011565>>2011665does anyone know if the leader of /snap/ active? will I get accepted if I apply?
>>2012264Yes, I am here everyday. What's your username?
>>2012284Mise, I'm the current leader of /sisters/ (it was handed to me at some point, I'm just a random guy, not the creator), I'll let everybody know I'm leaving and encourage anyone who wants to keep getting the alliance rewards to either join /snap/ or find a different alliance
>>2012323Alright, like the others said earlier we do have some inactives but i honestly didn't track them this week so idk who they are. But i can accept you since we have open slots anyways.
>>2012323Oh also let people in /sisters/ know that the thread is alive, we're just on /vm/ now
>>2012323I accepted you.
>>2012323Girls get it done no more...
>>2012328I'm ok with having some inactive players, I just want to feel like, if the situation demands it, I can make a big push (10k+ points) and guarantee the rewards for everybody.>>2012331I did let people know but I don't know if anybody reads the alliance chat these days.>>2012334Thanks, I'm already getting some quick points since I have free time.>>2012354All good things must come to an end, eventually.
>>2012374I just read it and left. Hopefully more people can transfer.
>>2012138Looks like a good variant of her. I'd get it if you like playing her. Though I do think it's funny that this is likely one of the most exclusive albums they've had. Each card is a newer card.
If anyone is applying to /snap/ please post your username so I can prioritize you over random applicants.
>>2012395Alright i did, it is pretty nice and i do like her. And yeah looking through it, that album is so fucked lmao. Every single variant is a 1200, and they're all new cards. Probably the most expensive album to fill out in the game. Maybe because you can get 2 series 5 from it but still that's a lot
Bold move by SD to make a season pass card that's borderline unusable for 90% of the season
>>2012497That does look pretty good. Ever since Lady Deathstrike got nerfed I've been hoping for a card that could take her place and it looks like Danger plays the roll well. I'm glad she's getting some variants already.
>>2012425I'm Ham
>>2012138>>2012497Bro, she’s not even firing her laser gun in this one.
>>2012655I accepted you.
>>2012681Thanks
>>2012659She doesn't in her vanilla art either
TVA should be removed from the game, what an unfun location. It just ruins every game it shows up in
