Lots of new art shown at comic con. A bunch of new variants but also:

New emotes

New card-emote sets

Variant art shown for Squirrel Girl AND her Squirrels

The Costume Party variants are ALL bangers. Arnim being a gameboy and Wolfbane in Sheep's clothing are :discourse:

This game really needs a graveyard or instant replay or something. I played Phoenix Force, which took Multiple Man, and moved it the next turn. I glanced away for a second. When I looked back all copies were completely gone. I have no idea what could have killed it.

Game needs an automute function more than anything, because it's a bridge way too far to expect people to not BM with emotes after a win.

are you playing on mobile? i usually just pull up a youtube video, and then open up snap and put the mini youtube video window top right... should block out everything (name, emotes, etc.).

Ohh this is fun.

My decks are pretty basic and I'm tired of encountering destruction decks every game, so I threw this together to see if it would work (it mostly requires dumb luck to win but it triggers a lot of retreats)

With everyone playing Magik, I just slapped Scarlet Witch into my favorite deck and been dropping that to end the game on 6 for some easy wins. Exception is a loving bot destroying a Magik over multiple-man, to then revive with phoenix force to apply a turn 7 happens this game to 2 locations. I hate bots.

That's a human play, not a bot play. Bots will play omnisciently and can have any tech card they need within certain limits, but they don't do multiple-turn combos.

No. You'll occasionally see a bot play Thing or Cyclops in a deck that has no reason to run them - which before High Evo was any deck. It's theorised that bots can replace these cards with a tech card or key card on those turns, but very rarely will play them "naked" if they have no better option. Amy Chav can be replaced as well, which is why cheatbots seem to always topdeck Hela on turn 6.

Just played against somebody who may have inadvertently found an interesting use for NSTW with Zola:



Didn't win them the game, but turning two out of three lanes into minefields and having Knull to reap the rewards is neat. Also, the Phoenix Move deck posted upthread is fun.

No, the cheatbots do always have the tech cards. It's not the what that is theorised, it's the how. And the most logical way of doing it without ever breaking the deck they're using is to replace an existing object.

In beta they had the data for matches written live into their json, including the full decklist at game start. Bot decks are not changing during gameplay.

I'm pretty sure second dinner has said that bot decks don't change during gameplay, but they can see what you play and play accordingly with what they have, either to win or lose. So they would be way more likely to play a tech card if they have it if they are playing to win, but they do have to have the card normally

Cheat to win bots make no sense for this game now that when people hit infinite those cubes they obtained are lost to the rest of the ladder for the rest of the season. I mean sure there's regular injection in the form of 3 ranks every tier but bots should exist for adding cubes to the ladder, not removing them

Appreciate all the suggestions (tried them all!) but I think you're right, I'll have to wait on Torch for this one :( Multiple Man may be a better PF target but Torch is sure better than staring at your hand.

If you Legion a Flooding location, all three locations will become Flooded at the same time. (Unlike Mirror Dimension.)

So Storm into Legion will close everything down.

That will be, um, interesting.

THE PANTS ARE FANCY!
From an occasional Galactus enjoyer, the Storm/Legion interaction sounds fine from a power perspective as it relies on you having also gotten some other cards in play or hand to make it work.

However from a "feels" perspective its going to be a thing people absolutely HATE.

I just cant see why they are doing this to themselves, they just fixed a lockout combo, and before that they finally unfucked the Galactus deck from being the most hated thing in snap.

Like why?
