As always, you can count on Jeff to have a clear-headed and sensible evaluation of the relative power levels of cards. Love this type of content for my favourite digital card game!
If Second Dinner doesn’t want to move cards down in Series, they need to increase the amount of Tokens you can win from caches, by A LOT. Getting 100 Tokens feels so cheap. And throw in the garbage 1 Golden ticket… well it makes me want to send hate mail to SD
Wow, I have taken about a year off and thought about getting back into the game with the holidays and more free time. Damn, there are a lot of S5 cards now. It is wild to compare this to your video of this last year. I hope the series drops come through, seems a bit overwhelming to come back. Hope the last few month have been good to you Jeff, I always have apricated your content! Have a good eating holiday :)
Oh, White Widow. You were near the top of the list for 2-cost cards, and now you're in the Kang tier. I'm glad I got you when I did and had some fun with you before the nerf.

Every few days I keep thinking of reinstalling Marvel Snap as I'm in love with the game but the economy around needing sooooo many Series 4/5 cards is too intimidating that I'd rather not bother. :(
I love this. Context matters!!! Other UA-camrs will dither on whether a card is a 3 or 4 star card to them, with no real context to why or what makes it one or the other. I love how you have a categorical explanation and then a quick efficient blurb on each card, rationalizing why it’s in that category. It’s more important than ever to have guides like THIS that help the player understand the WHY a card is good and or the HOW it is used. As a dolphin im skipping speed for months now, because i can run something 90% as good but instead can push my resources towards “true unlocks” like Wiccan and agent venom.

So nice for this to come out mere minutes after I spent my tokens. All jokes aside great video as always! As a returning player these are helpful for me as I used to be Infinte and need to renew my knowledge. I recently got Scorn she is pretty strong.
This video came right on time! I was torn between two cards to spend my 6k tokens on and seeing one of them is archetype defining and the other is strong but replaceable cleared up my head on that choice!
Thanks for the content Jeff! Some feedback on the format: I would appreciate a graphic at the end (maybe a tier list like the thumbnail) with all the cards to help visualize and compare. Not the biggest deal of course (and possibly unviable with enough cards) but something to consider.
Snap has genuinely good gameplay mechanics and a number of unique designs. You'll need to accept you'll mostly have to build your own decks for the first few months though with the way the collection system works right now
Would it be better to wait for Kate bishop when she comes to spotlights (scheduled for Jan 7). I want all the cards coming that week but it might change later down the line
Spotlights have been pretty consistent with their datamined setup lately, so I'd save keys for her then. Worst case scenario is they move her out of it and you spend tokens anyway
This video is not telling you what resources to spend to be optimal - it is just rating the higher series cards. I'll do my typical review of upcoming caches here shortly once we get December caches confirmed soon.

All cards released in 2023 with the exception of the tech cards and big bads (Nico Minoru, Mobius M. Mobius, High Evolutionary, and _sigh_ Kang) should just move down a tier. 5 --> 4 (12 cards) Blob, Sebastian Shaw, Anninilus, Ms. Marvel, Werewolf by Night, Black Knight, Elsa Bloodstone, Alioth, Loki, X-23, Iron Lad, Jeff! 4 --> 3 (19 cards) Selene, Havok, Gladiator, Man-Thing, Ravonna Renslayer, Lady Deathstrike, Daken, Legion, Jean Grey, Phoenix Force, Spider-Ham, Silk, Ghost Spider, Living Tribunal, Nebula, Hit-Monkey, Kitty Pryde, Nimrod, M.O.D.O.K.

@gohwenting3786 thx 😊 i already get gilgamesh now and it is absolutely awesome and with my zoo deck i achieve infinity this season I love it and now I definitely planning of Marvel boy 😄
I highly rate Caiera for newer players because she will protect the lower series cards that you have and supports the archetypes that you can play with smaller collections. Once your collection is bigger and you open more archetypes her value diminishes but IMO she will improve your game experience in the early to mid stages of your Snap journey.
I will say this for anyone in doubt, if you could only ever buy one card with tokens, buy Arishem. Yeah, it's RNG dependent to win, but the extra energy is usually enough to give you room to play with what you get, and no two matches will ever feel the same. Plus, slotting in tech cards will be enough to stop varied strategies most of the time, even Cassandra Nova will become useless if played against you when you drop that Shang-chi.
I can’t ever recommend people buy Arishem cuz Arishem is just the most miserable experience in the game to be on the receiving end of, win or lose. The card needs a full scale rework, not a recommendation to purchase.
I wouldn't describe blink as mediocre, as far as my experience with the game goes it's a very powerful card. Also I don't feel like symbiote, nimrod and phastos are that bad. They work fairly well with their respective archetypes
1:02 honestly, i dont get the arishem bashing at all the card allows newer/intermediate players to play with any card they could not obtain in months or even years of grinding otherwise
3 reasons as someone that has climbed to infinite with arishem And lost tons of bubs to him is that 1) he throws the normal rules of the game out. Example if I am playing a destroy deck I can track how big the knull is and try to play around that. With arishem that doesn’t remotely exist because you don’t know what the output range is going to be 2)priority which is also a core part of the game is also meaningless because of part 1. All meta arishem decks always run a number of tech cards ranging from alioth to shang to rogue/enchantress. This means if your losing priority you get screwed by alioth and if u are winning priority and say your a darkhawk deck then your also losing to the other tech cards mentioned 3) the extra energy can also be a large factor. As being able to play cards like alioth 1 turn earlier or being able to play shang chi with a rogue on turn can easily win you games you shouldn’t be winning and invalidate your opponents play
None unless you have everything else. If you’re going based on what’s optimal that is. But if I had to pick one would be gorr. He is a defining card in the decks he is in and can’t easily be replaced. As for sable che can be subbed by any other 1 drop such as iceman
yeah man whatever, who cares with the recent trash " series drops " , SD proved that the card acquisition will stay unchanged and i hope for there sake i'm wrong.
I find it funny, 2024 new cards rise and fall quickly. I mean i rarely see January to June season pass card playing right now. I disagree with agony, i climbed deadpool diner so fast with combination agony, kitty, nico, star-lord, and frigga.
Thank you for this! I actually hope this vid gets obsoleted by the announcement that there's going to be a larger series drop (and more buffs).
They did announce that. It was announced at the same time they announced the patch. There will be a larger series drop in the first quarter of 2025

Though I despise it just get arishem then. Practically a plug and play with whatever cards you have.
This is why getting Arishem instantly makes gameplay so much fun. You get to use cards you don't have and just the effect of Arishem is super fun.

This was so helpful! I'm finally going to get Wiccan.
They need to release one card less per month AND make half of the cards start as series 4 cards so we can get them for 3000 tokens. 😢
All cards released in 2023 with the exception of the tech cards and big bads (Nico Minoru, Mobius M. Mobius, High Evolutionary, and _sigh_ Kang) should just move down a tier.
5 --> 4 (12 cards)
Blob, Sebastian Shaw, Anninilus, Ms. Marvel, Werewolf by Night, Black Knight, Elsa Bloodstone, Alioth, Loki, X-23, Iron Lad, Jeff!
4 --> 3 (19 cards)
Selene, Havok, Gladiator, Man-Thing, Ravonna Renslayer, Lady Deathstrike, Daken, Legion, Jean Grey, Phoenix Force, Spider-Ham, Silk, Ghost Spider, Living Tribunal, Nebula, Hit-Monkey, Kitty Pryde, Nimrod, M.O.D.O.K.
X-23, Iron Lad, Jean Grey, and Kitty Pride, take it or leave it.
Wiccan was the last card I picked up with tokens! Now slowly gathering again
I want to pick up anti venom and hope as I think I’ll have fun with those, I’ll look to get Kate bishop as well. Thanks!
Thanks, really appreciate this concise grouping. Very positive approach after the awful news.. 😊
Keep in mind that Kate Bishop is datamined to be in spotlight caches in January
As always, thanks Jeff!

Best name I've heard for the "move YOUR stuff" cards is "pushers".

I highly rate Caiera for newer players because she will protect the lower series cards that you have and supports the archetypes that you can play with smaller collections. Once your collection is bigger and you open more archetypes her value diminishes but IMO she will improve your game experience in the early to mid stages of your Snap journey.

Should i pick up knull or wait till ravona shows up? I recently pick up gorr and ravona is pretty good to ramp up in negative, i like knull too
How about Gorr, how would you rate the card
Btw great vid !!
Strong but replaceable unless you’re doing negative or ravonna
Thank you for making these my F2P heart loves them!
At 8:25 gladiator should be a series 4 not series 5
I would definitely welcome agony dropping to S3
she's so good but only in destroy which is a good beginner straightforward deck
Once again you have the best analysis, thank you for the video!
Great vid thanks
Got Gilgamesh pinned cause I love Zoo and didn't have the ability to get him on release.
It’s too bad if you’re going for something specific it takes months to get the collectors tokens to get anything
This reminded me Sersi exists. Time to go brush the dust off my terrible clutter Sersi deck.
With scream, they should buff Jeff
Should i pin arishem for token? Is it worth?
He is not a meta card, But He is a very fun card along and always be a decent in every meta.
Haven't played in a while wtf happened to symbiote

Dear Second Dinner, more of that
I used all 3 of my keys. I still didn't get Wiccan.
Never use Keys when you have less than four keys
Should I get Gorr or silver sable with tokens
If you have key, just use key for gorr, if not just take sable imo
None unless you have everything else. If you’re going based on what’s optimal that is.
But if I had to pick one would be gorr. He is a defining card in the decks he is in and can’t easily be replaced. As for sable che can be subbed by any other 1 drop such as iceman
White widow pains me. Card used to be top tier
How do you know what series a card is?
It's listed in client on them and community sites track them.
What decks is Havok usable in? He's available to get for me in the spotlight cache (already got legion + gorr) but i dont know if hes worth getting
Havok is typically in negative decks last I remember but that’s abt it. He’s not worth it, hasn’t seen play practically since release
would be nice if i could actually get these cards
I could be wrong but I think you forgot Spider-Man 2099
He is series 3 now.
@ oh okay. I presume this means we’re not going to see a buff anytime soon
