Another one is that Agatha players always have one more card in their starting hand, right? I think Thanos players have a similar tell as well.
Thanos players have six more cards in their deck! And also an animation soon.

That reminds me, does the timer auto-submit your turn if it fills up? I noticed Agatha players run out the clock, so I assumed they're just playing idle and not even looking at the app.

Honestly aero feels like a pretty fair card. She's a tech card that punishes telegraphed plays, and only really feels backbreaking if her effect is doubled. She should probably eat a point nerf down to 6 just to break her ubiquity as a Generic Good Card, but anything past that would be excessive.

Now Shuri on the other hand, Shuri is some straight bullshit and should eat a big nerf

Nah. On one idle it will just move to the next turn and then on that turn the timer burns down quicker. Two idles is a retreat by default.

Ah so it's mostly people also running out the timer hoping for a retreat from bored opponents. Those Agatha timer games take as long as like 3 regular games.

I don't have him, only got him from things like Hub, Agent 13, Cable, etc... but you'd better believe when I use him, it destroys their, IDK, Iceman or something. When they have him...right to my Sandman, or Infinaut that was pulled from Lockjaw, etc...

She's quite a bit more than that. I actually appreciate the aero meta for a lot of reasons but one or both players always want to aero on turn 6, and aero + 1 drop very often means that aero is the best card to play for both players. I wouldnt remove her from any of my decks at 6 power btw it's too important to actually beat galactus.

After my worst case streaks of 75% losing overall yesterday I am 14-5 today, so RNG just has it’s mystery habits both ways. :nsa:

btw, if the opponents can’t counter or Cosmo Wong, he is just obscene and oppressive.

Aero as be the current MVP of SNAP right now imho and I would like to see her overall winrate.
She will get nerfed eventually, her impact is just ridiculous.

I only just realized that sorting your collection by "upgradeable" not only moves your cards with upgrades available to the top, it sorts the rest in ascending order of boosters needed till next upgrade.

instead of my upgradable deck composed of my lowest quality cards, now I can get an upgrade every 1-2 games by including the top 12 upgradeable that don't have upgrades available.

I have an “upgrade deck” with all grey, green and blue cards that I play once in a while to farm some boosters.

The cards usually don’t have any synergy, maybe accidentally, and the curve often is horrible.
And yet you win with this once in a while and you trolled both the opponent and yourself successfully.

Playing your boosters deck is, imo, a great way to practice your snapping/escaping senses.

I had the same as you till I discovered the quirk of upgradeable sorting in my post, and now my upgrade deck cycles new cards in MUCH faster.

it's likely the grays and greens have the fewest boosters till upgrading, but you may discover some higher level cards only 1-2 away.

And even if you put him in your deck you can sometimes forget he is a discard card... but then sometimes it works out! (emphasis on sometimes, also Elysium definitely helped here)



The other screenshot I took today had a full clear of my opponent's side, but I noticed that had the combo played on Dark Dimension, so that's basically cheating. This deck is... not consistent, a good thing I don't care about rank this season.

Unless you're criteria is just "Biggest power for 3 cost"?

I recommend holding onto to the tokens. Polaris is good and cool but you'll get her a lot more easily than earning those 1k tokens back.

edit: and I even posted a list including her today.

I intend to, but actually having a stack of 3000 tokens makes me feel Devil may care… almost bought Destroyer on a whim earlier just cuz that deck archetype seems fun even if a bit out of fashion

Realistically I am going to save to 6k for one of Thanos Galactus maybe Kang if he turns out to be the bees knees

Look if you never spend your tokens you'll just horde them with nothing to show.

Some of the cards are ones I just hate, like Gambit. Others are good but I don’t use due to lack of synergy (hazmat, no luke cage yet)

And some I just got post nerf (Leader)

I use Vulture regularly. I've also bought 5 cards and I'm saving up for maybe She Hulk to show up in my shop. If I pull her first, I can save up for Stature. I don't really care about Galactus or Thanos.

Whenever I get a new card I immediately try to build a deck/slot it into one of my established decks until I get it up to rare. I don't own any cards below that level right now, I'm trying to figure out the most cost efficient ways tool earn CL.

Got lucky and pulled the his Killmonger this month and it's loving sweet. And also got his Medusa variant on top of it, which also looks great, but sadly a card I'll basically never play

I think this is a safe move if you have priority. If you don’t they can just go for the double white tiger or whatever which is still pretty potent.
