And it's gotten me three cards and inched me ahead, but I'm still leagues behind the pool 4/5 cool cards, still missing key pool 3 cards, and the developers clearly want me to drop like $80 on one of their lovely packages so I can buy ONE card.

it's definitely their main monetization scheme, which means it's a pain point they're likely not going to entirely remove. the token shop was more than I expected, tbh, so there's hope I'd advise either just being as patient as you can with being okay with making decks with the cards you get naturally or budgeting a bit of money to spend on the game in relation to how much you find yourself playing it. I'm probably going to keep buying the monthly passes here as long as I'm still playing 20+ hours a month, but ymmv

Tom Smykowski posted:Who's good with Hela? Trying to retool my discard deck now that I have her she's one of the cards that makes the discard deck really Work, so slotting her in to any discard deck is likely going to boost your winrate. i haven't rebuilt my deck since i cleared all my decks out the other day, but i'd make sure you're running swarm and apocalypse, target ghost rider for consistency (b/c god does hela love to be the one discarded), and go for the morbius/dracula package if you have it. people seem to be playing gambit more and more, which is spicy but definitely gets people

I do wonder if they'll do events that spit cards a few times a year. Keep people playing and help everyone catch up. I am enjoying that everyone doesn't have every card and it's fun to fill holes creatively but I would like to have sone kind of seasonal dump or something to break what can become a grind.

Honestly Hela probably needs Death to protect her so she doesn't get accidentally discarded. Discard kinda needs a ton of cards.

I haven't run the numbers, but the battle pass also gets you a ton of extra credits and boosters which can improve your CL which also gets you cards faster.

They know that it's something that they will have to address at some point, and it's a positive sign that they realised it before getting to that point. How they handle it is yet to be seen, though.

I think her getting discarded feels bad, but I think it should push people to having other lines in the deck than just her as wincon rather than having less synergistic cards in the deck for protection purposes it's like how players hate mill in MTG because all those good cards they want to play are gone and unable to be drawn anymore, except in practice it's functionally identical to those cards just being at the bottom of your deck and never drawing them in the first place

Isn’t Leader an answer to a whole bunch of other bullshit? Death, She-Hulk, Knull, Sera, or any other deck that wants to hide its advantage until the last turn.

Leader is simultaneously good for the game and the most annoying card to see when it flips They could tweak him to have less power and/or duplicate the base card (instead of post any buffs) and maybe it’d still be a good counter without being quite so dumb Or hit him harder but also increase Death’s cost or change the way her cost decreases (friendly cards only? Idk) wyoak fucked around with this message at 18:55 on Dec 27, 2022 |

Tiger Millionaire posted:It sucks I can't work towards the decks I wanna play! That Luke Cage - Hazmat deck looks like so much fun, but as I'm CL400 and I'm assuming those are season 4/5 cards I'm literally thousands of levels away of being able to play them, that feels bad! For whatever it's worth Luke Cage is the only Series 4 card in that deck; everything else is S3 or lower. Here's a version I used before I got Luke/Hood: * Elektra (1) * Iceman (1) * Nova (1) * Black Widow (2) * Hazmat (2) * Carnage (2) * Scorpion (2) * Viper (2) * Green Goblin (3) * Debrii (3) * Hobgoblin (5) * Spider-Woman (5) That said I feel like Luke is kind of a Mr. Negative or Lockjaw situation, where they're a pretty key card for defining this archetype. This deck is fun and "works" otherwise but it truly takes off with Wong/Luke. I really wish they would add in some more options for debuff/territory control decks, maybe something like a 5 cost "This card gains +1 power for every other card that has had its power reduced" or some such.

I've seen metas evolve with counters etc in other card games but it feels very accelerated here

wyoak posted:Leader is simultaneously good for the game and the most annoying card to see when it flips If it were my job to fix Leader, I'd start by making his text, "On Reveal: Copy all cards your opponent played to other locations this turn, but on your side." I don't know if that would be enough, but it would add more nuance to his positioning and make it harder to use his four power to tip a close location.

The problem with Leader is that he also punishes lovely Decks just as hard. Also, you can still do most of the other tricks with Leader since it copies stats, and not base played cards. Yes I'm mad that I ran into Electro Leader Odin twice this morningwyoak posted:Leader is simultaneously good for the game and the most annoying card to see when it flips Not being free with Wave is my big one tbqh, similarly with She-Hulk.

Getting back into Snap and I'm CL 529 and no really good pool 3 cards yet. I saw Rogue in the token store and bought it without really thinking about it. Now I see She-Hulk and I'll need 900 more tokens. Is that card pin-worthy?

Now I see She-Hulk and I'll need 900 more tokens. Is that card pin-worthy? Depends on your philosophy on collection progression. An earlier poster pointed out that pinning cards greater than Pool 3 before you complete that pool is a grind. Apparently, you get more collector tokens once you finish Pool 3. That being said She-Hulk is an amazing card.

Now I see She-Hulk and I'll need 900 more tokens. Is that card pin-worthy? I would say no. Unless you plan to drop a mint on one of the bundles that come with Collector's Tokens (like the Sunspot one going right now), then you likely won't have enough tokens a while. Napkin math, you have a 25% chance for 100 tokens in each Cache, and caches come every 12 CL. So you would expect to need ~430 CL to gain 900 tokens. In that same time span, you could keep an eye out for good P3 cards, and even buy two right now. Here's a decent guide for which P3 cards are worth snapping based on what kind of decks and synergies you're looking to build: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A2_pHO3atOk He doesn't use a conventional tier list, instead looking at how useful and flexible various cards are in meta decks. Like, Rogue was a good pickup. She doesn't define any archetype, but she is a very useful tech card.

Ok yea I might as well stop trying. Im not getting out of the 80s without a complete P3 collection at least. Running into complete meta decks with infinite cardbacks excusively. Oh well made it farther than last season

Annoying inconsistency: I had my Titania (who jumps to the other side if any card is played there). I play Hela and she plays cards that are discarded. But Titania doesn't jump back and I lose.

Locations can also not play cards. Except for Vormir which will play your card and destroy it if you send it to your opponent’s side. I am a very consistent game.
