A brand new Marvel Snap replace has added a bunch of recent playing cards plus a brand new approach to earn them.
The replace, known as The Energy Cosmic, will add quite a few new playing cards together with Thanos, She-Hulk, and Galactus… and maybe most significantly, introduces Collector’s Tokens.
“We’re planning to patch at 3 PM Pacific right now!” mentioned Marvel Snap creator Ben Brode. “When you log into the brand new patch the sport will have a look at your Assortment Stage and grant your Collector’s Tokens. Have enjoyable! Cannot wait to see what new decks everybody will construct!”
Collector’s Tokens are a brand-new mechanic which ought to make buying these final ending touches to your newest deck somewhat bit simpler.
The concept is straightforward – gamers are awarded Collector’s Tokens by rising their Collector’s Stage, and these could be spent within the Retailer to buy new playing cards. Basically, it’s a brand new form of foreign money that’s a neat means of selecting up one or two playing cards to complete off your newest deck.
The variety of Collector’s Tokens you get is predicated in your Collector Stage:
- 500-999: 3000 Tokens
- 1000-2999: 6000 Tokens
- Over 3000: 12,000 Tokens
You’ll be able to then spend these tokens on any playing cards that seem within the new Token store. Pool 3 playing cards will value 1000 tokens, Pool 4 playing cards value 3000 tokens, and Pool 5 playing cards value 6000 tokens.
The perfect half? It ought to make the Pool 3 climb that little bit simpler.
Marvel Snap sees gamers rise via a number of swimming pools of accessible playing cards with Pool 3 being by far essentially the most diversified, consisting of 74 playing cards in whole. The mixtures are nearly countless… however it may be an altogether daunting prospect for these gamers, like myself, who’ve simply clawed their means out of Pool 2.
And with the addition of an enormous variety of playing cards in Pool 4, that’s solely going to worsen.
New additions embody Luke Cage, Absorbing Man, She-Hulk, Titania, Maria Hill, Agent Coulson, HeliCarrier, M’Baku, Attuma, Orka, Bast, Shuri, Thanos, Galactus, Valkyrie, Tremendous Skrull, and Silver Surfer.
Sadly, the patch brings some nerfs, too. Angela is now a 2/0 as an alternative of a 2/1 whereas Mysterio is now a 2/4 as an alternative of two/5. Sera is now a 5/4 as an alternative of a 5/5 and Onslaught’s spectacular capacity is now stacking additively as an alternative of exponentially.
A nasty day for Kazoo decks, perhaps. However Collector’s Tokens positive take the dangerous luck out of leveling.
