they just need to introduce keywords like with Hearthstone, so Professor X can get one called "Lockdown" or something and then they can also add it to Miniaturized Lab and whatever else has that effect

Sandwolf posted:I got 3000 when I hit...500? or something like that? which is enough for 3x Series 3 cards, which, imo, is where you should be focusing at first. I bought Doctor Doom, Patriot, and now Leader, all pretty reasonably good cards, so I'm content with that. Would have also taken Mystique, Sera, and maybe Wong. i was under the impression that was a one-time boon when they implemented the token shop and wasn't a thing that newer players got, but i could be wrong i'd say use the tokens on cards that either are generically good (like sera) or open up archetypes on their own (like patriot). leader's also a good choice but i think out of all the cards currently in the game he's the most likely to eventually be reworked entirely (and i also just don't really enjoy his play pattern IMO)

I have a lot of issues with Snap's verbiage, but the Cost thing I think is fairly consistent. Cards cost what they cost. If they're discounted in your hand, they cost the displayed number. When you play them, their energy cost reverts to their regular, non discounted cost. They are then a "X-cost" card, whatever number X equals. A card does not keep it's discounted status on the board and the game communicates that to you. So if Sera discounts Bucky Barnes to 1, he is a 1 cost card. You can't play him on a zone that prohibits that. Once you play him, he's no longer discounted. The game shows he costs 2, and he cannot be killed by Killmonger.

Didn't screenshot it unfortunately, but I played a second Mysterio from hand (using cloning vats) and he didn't play any illusions, just himself. No location effects/Cosmo etc. Have others run into this? Edit: just realized, I must have played the original not on the vats, and then played the illusion next turn.

It's really consistent, I think people are just stuck on the terminology. If card costs were referred to as "base cost" and "current cost" or something, I don't think anyone would have any issue with it.

Before Elysium procs: Bucky is a 2-cost card "that costs 2" After Elysium procs: Bucky is a 2-cost card "that costs 1" After Bucky is played: Bucky is once again a 2-cost card "that costs 2"

No Wave posted:If you beast bounce a hood then play him then pick him back up with Falcon he costs zero in hand. So what the card cost when played is persisted somewhere. That's what I thought too, I was trying to reconcile Tender's explanation with what I know, which is: X-cost is permanent "cards that cost X" means current cost

After reading this I tried to make a turn 6 Galactus deck. Not sure if it is any good but I did just pull off a miracle win that involved losing in Eternity Range, kicking over the Rock with Viper, which was then moved out of the way with a prepped Iron Fist, followed by Hazmat. In between I also played a Wolverine and Green Goblin. Won the location with 5 to 4. 8 cubes. uXs fucked around with this message at 21:39 on Jan 4, 2023 |

JackDarko posted:I think a lot of people might still be playing Wave thinking it counters Zabu. This actually brings up an interesting question. If I have Zabu out and Wave, that turns all the cards to 2 cost for you right? Maybe T3 Zabu, T4 Hold, T5 Wongers and Wave, T5 Shuri in one lane to Black Panther on Wongers to Zola? Seems like a very dumb combo.

I’ve been having okay luck with Shuri into Hobgoblin into Galactus. Extremely obvious and loses to Odin unless you place Hobgoblin perfectly but it also allows you to pivot with Chavez on turn 6 if you need to.

The surprise thing about Galactus that loses me cubes is seeing it coming and thinking "even with Death they can't outplay me, and what idiot is thirsty enough to also buy Knu-" and then I lose 4 cubes as they slam down +30 power on turn 6

Is that cause Mysterio the only card (that I know of) who creates other cards where the cards are actually PLAYED? As in, they trigger effects from Bishop, Angela, et all? Cause other cards like Doom, Squirrel Girl, and Ultron all just say "add" or "create" (and why are THOSE different terminology?) not specifically "PLAY."

Speaking of dropping money, I can't believe I'm seeing so many of those anime waifu avatars. I mean, granted, I say this as both someone who does not care about anime anything, and ALSO does not really care about card variants, so I'm hardly one to judge. But still...$50?!

if it helps it make sense, start tracking how much you play marvel snap (and other f2p games) compared to your general entertainment budget. if you have a decently large budget and you're also spending dozens of hours on the game it might make sense to get the bundle given that it's not just cosmetics. but, also, you might go 'well i don't play THAT much and i'm fine with the progression i'm doing' and stick to not paying for anything/only paying for the monthly pass (i also just recommend making an entertainment budget in general in terms of knowing how much money you can justify spending on a treat for yourself, because that's important)

I’m not opposed to spending money on the game. It depends on my budget and what other games or movies I want this month. The Sera and Angela art do not look good to me, even as an anime enjoyer.

Thanks to whoever mentioned hiding Ebony Maw behind Invisible Woman. Opponent snapped for 8 cubes because he felt pretty confident about using Wave to drop Death and Dock Ock on the right lane for T6. Unfortunately I had Ebony Maw and Dracula hiding, moving that lane from -1 to 26.

I enjoy playing very strange decks and I don't really care about climbing very much. I will swing like 20-30 ranks on a new deck and then get back up with my good deck if I feel like it. I was thinking about some game concepts and linked a few together for a theme: * If you don't have cards you can't play cards * If your cards get weak or too expensive you can't play them * If you don't have spots to put cards then you can't play them So, I put together Rocks. Antman Iceman Korg Black Widow Psylocke Beast Mojo Scorpion Ironheart Lockjaw Debrii Rock Slide Goal is to just clog the gently caress out of everything for them. I imagine it's really annoying to play against and hope people just leave instead of finishing the game. Even when they don't most of their cards or draws become useless. So, the list again: Antman - Almost every game fills up my side, if not both. Iceman - Annoying, Korg - Rocks. Black Widow - Not a Rock but really annoying to not be able to draw. Makes them take up 1 of 4 spots on a lane. Psylocke - Extra energy really helps with all of these cheap cards and Lockjaw. Beast - Picks up all my annoying cards and possibly Lockjaw. Mojo - 2 cost 8 power. Scorpion - Annoying. Ironheart - This deck is low power so the inclusion is obvious but sometimes I can get it to pop out of lockjaw twice in the same round when my deck is low. Lockjaw - Good boy. Cycles so many annoying cheap cards in and out. Debrii - Clogs up lanes with Rocks. Rock Slide - Rocks. I try to count how many cards I "ruin" and between the lost draws from widow or rocks and making them cost more or powered less I can usually ruin 6-8 cards in a match. I haven't quite figured it out yet but I'm getting there. The Sean fucked around with this message at 22:14 on Jan 20, 2023 |

My Second Re-Reg posted:Someone else already showed a deck with it but I second the recommendation of Spider-Woman; +7 to your side & potentially -4 to theirs is pretty big, particularly if you're jamming up their side with 0-power rocks.  Retreat at the start of 6
