10:50 NO WAY ALEX I CAN’T BELIEVE THAT WAS YOU I’m beyond thrilled that you posted our match on the highlight reel, I’ve been watching your videos ever since I started playing Snap a year and a half ago and I’m a huge fan. Decided to randomly play Zoo to complete some alliance missions and did not expect to get Moon Girl + double Victoria Hand’ed. Great game, and again love your content
I had trouble drawing Iron Patriot, but when I finally did, I had Victoria Hand and I got a 1/9 Black Bolt that also discarded a card and ruined my opponent's Devil Dinosaur!😂
Alex thank you so much for sharing second dinners announce on the spotlight keys update, it says a lot about your care for the community specially for the ones with limited resources. Coming from a food server, thank you
Teaching Python to kids is absolutely goated move, it's gonna open up so much doors for them. I wish I had someone to teach me Python (or at least tell me to learn it) when I was back in school and not starting it ~10 years later than I should have initially, BUT it's never too late!
Yeah, in the middle of a 6 week Summer break I tried to learn c++ in 2006 at 14 years old by myself. That was tiresome as hell. I ultimately lost interest, when school started again. Python with Notebooks (colab/ jupyter) and obviously ChatGPT, UA-cam and Text Type Tutorials on Sites like medium makes programming sooooo much more accessible.
I'm running her with Iron Patriot in a Wiccan deck. I've got Maria Hill, Snowguard, Quinjet, Kate Bishop, Iron Patriot, Sentinel, Victoria Hand, Agent Coulson, Frigga, Wiccan, Devil Dino, Gorr. It's probably not a perfect list, but it's fun. I might try to put in Mystique and Malekith.
So happy to for once have 11/12 cards in a suggested deck once I buy Victoria Hand. I just won't have Iron Patriot to make your All in Dino Hand V2 deck. I'm sure I can find something to replace it with, like Mirage or Snow Guard.
Lucked out and got Victoria Hand on my first key, so thank you for bringing up the patch update! I'll sit on the rest of my resources until next week (which is fine, because I actually am excited for Moonstone).
Nice, the discard one is an interesting spin on discard and gives me the fuzzy happiness of random new stuff to try through Helicarrier, that i get from Arishem
I thought for sure I was going to feel bad about not picking up Valentina when this month arrived but pleasantly surprised to see she's not in either of your decks.
I would like to see a video highlighting your go to decks that you always have saved in your deck list. I see the names sometimes and I'm like what in the world is in that deck lol
I was going for the Kate variant and got her on the way. Not mad about it, she makes an old archetype have a little life again. Not a meta breaker, but definitely is a shoe in for any Devil Dino deck going forward
Last week I said 1 key and done. This week before the patch (didn’t check wasn’t aware) I said 1 and done again. Got R&G and Victoria first try and now I’m in for it when I want Moon and Bullseye :(
I know she is a good card but will she be enough to carry a tier 3 archetype to glory? I'm not so sure about that, maybe in the future with more support.
Honestly she's a must pull and lucky I got her and the other two cards while not hitting the fouth get fuvked box. But honestly I'm tempted to use more keys for her spotlight variant
ffffuck I didnt think the patch would be live before the cache cycled to next week. oh well. at least next week Ill get 2k for sure when I roll another elsa.
Great takes as always. Having fun with that Discard Hand deck. In other news, anyone looking for an Alliance? I have 4 spots left in “Rage Against The Poutine” (RTP). Figured Alex would get a kick out of that name. 😁 We max out every week. Just looking to replace a few folks that stopped playing Snap.
Probs can’t deal with the super tiny patch window timing to get the 2k on this weeks caches;;; so I guess this week it’s gambling to “not” hit the mystery cache (which SD is apparently too incompetent to be able to have tweaked right when they announced it leading to the usual bad feels among its customers for weeks on end as they pull 1k still…)
“You are correct, we absolutely can’t competently and timely install a patch until a month plus after we continue to make people eat crap on 1k tokens without recompense; it’s just too hard to make it feel ok for people who have pulled since our announcement about it for 4-5 weeks straight…PR!” -Griffin
I rolled 3 keys and I got Kate, Grandmaster and Victoria, no duplicates. Maybe they're actively tweaking it so you're less likely to get duplicates before the patch, that or I got very lucky.
spent 3 keys got KATE BISHOP WHICH I ALREADY HAD, GRANDMASTER WHICH I ALSO ALREADY HAD, AND LASTLY I GOT SEBASTIAN SHAW GUESS WHAT I ALREADY HAD! i skipped out on rocket and groot for this :,)
Got her 4 banging in the keys but I don’t plan on getting any of the other cards this season so rolled too get her SV and 1 banged it since I foresee myself playing a lot of her I’m running her in a Wiccan deck rn
Hi Alex! I’ve been watching your content for 2 years and you’re by far my favorite! I was curious to know what’s your opinion of the state of the game right now cause it feels like it’s been dying or not as fun/stimulating, cheers!
I played 4D chess and used my 2 keys already and hit the Grand Master & Kate Bishop alts. Looks like I’ll earn another key between now and next Tuesday. My odds to get 2k tokens or Victoria just skyrocketed 😂 Ughhhh I hate this game
I mean, announcing it so many weeks in advance and letting people keep pulling for 1k knowing this (and all my pulls have hit it since…) is like…typical SD “why the hell would you do it that way…?” Kind of thing.
Really suprised no one is putting her into a moon girl dump deck. I thought that would have been the best place for her by far, considering how bad a lot of the dino support is and how good those decks are at generating 1/5s
The 0-5 swarm reminds me of sabertooth, it is unimaginable that discarding a card gives you 2 free 0-5s when destroying a card that you spent energy on only gives you 1 0-5. Justice for sabertooth pls😭😭🙏
ive been scammed the last 3 weeks out of 6 keys with no new cards. Idk if the patch will be enough to keep me in the game. (700+ hrs in the game) i just want to make new decks and have fun, but instead i get scammed out of my hard earned keys with no new cards to show for it. Thanks Second dinner for wasting my time. Love you Alex thanks for the content.
Here's the list I started with for her , I like it. Hood ,Agony,Maria Hill ,Nico Mino ,Mirage ,Grand Master , Hawkeye Kate Bishop, Victoria Hand, Agent Venom, Mystique, Frigga, Beast
SD should change the Season caches , if they wanna sell those " super Premium " season passes. I'm not saying that they are trying to mislead people, but they make it look like you're buying the first ten caches when you are actually buying the LAST ten caches of the season. And all the caches over 50 kinda suck. They should make those higher level caches worth grinding for, if they want to sell that super crap..... And ,ffs, the daily offer for variants needs to be mixed. Not all the same album and DEFINITELY not all for 1200 gold.

lol thats awesome! GG! Much love
Mirage is my favorite card to pair with Victoria Hand. You copy your opponents card and it ends up with +4 total power.
Thanks for the info, im gonna wait until patch to get her
Same
Spent 2 keys, got scream then Victoria Hand, definitely not complaining about that
"I see this as an absolute win!"
@@OratoryJamesIV same! I didn't have the tokens to spend on Scream, it's a rare win but I'll definitely take it.
W
Quinjet + Victoria Hand+ Mystique let me flood the board with 1/7 Sentinels and it was great 😂
Nah son. Moonstone
Yesss you're speaking my language. HALT! MUTANT
@@C00T47Just keep in mind Moonstone only affects cards in her lane so make sure to protect it from Enchantress
I had trouble drawing Iron Patriot, but when I finally did, I had Victoria Hand and I got a 1/9 Black Bolt that also discarded a card and ruined my opponent's Devil Dinosaur!😂
Thank you for spreading word about the patch window!
So when exactly should I roll? Next Tuesday am?
@@cscs88 Ideally, yes. They said something about an eight-hour window, so you might still have time for the weekly mission too.
@fajenthygia5760 couldn't wait and opened the caches and got a duplicate 😂
Really excited for this month. Bullseye, moonstone, and victoria are all going to open up brand new ways to play this game.
Token Tuesday is only 700 gold for 1200 token and boosters. Feels like the old days.
Alex thank you so much for sharing second dinners announce on the spotlight keys update, it says a lot about your care for the community specially for the ones with limited resources. Coming from a food server, thank you
I'm not a huge fan of the patch being so late in the week... but thanks for the info, Alex. I wouldn't have known if it wasn't for you.
It’s not late in the week. It’s in the beginning of the week, on Tuesday.
@@xdrkcldx He's saying late in the Spotlight Cache Week.

They teach it in school now. My 8th grader is starting an app development class this semester that goes over python and java.

@@ryanhorton9594hell yeah, love to hear it
Oh my god I forgot about the extra 1k tokens
Same
Another thing with Discard that I think many forget: Black Knight is also another discard that “adds” a card to your hand.
I'm running her with Iron Patriot in a Wiccan deck. I've got Maria Hill, Snowguard, Quinjet, Kate Bishop, Iron Patriot, Sentinel, Victoria Hand, Agent Coulson, Frigga, Wiccan, Devil Dino, Gorr.
It's probably not a perfect list, but it's fun. I might try to put in Mystique and Malekith.
Thank you for the video, the information, and the decks.
So happy to for once have 11/12 cards in a suggested deck once I buy Victoria Hand. I just won't have Iron Patriot to make your All in Dino Hand V2 deck.
I'm sure I can find something to replace it with, like Mirage or Snow Guard.

Nice, the discard one is an interesting spin on discard and gives me the fuzzy happiness of random new stuff to try through Helicarrier, that i get from Arishem
I just got a god split on Mystique today, so I’m so ready and happy she is in these decks.
I can’t believe the turn 6 play was Victoria Hand + Victoria Hand + Undiscarded Swarm. Pog!
Question to anyone my Untapped deck app is not showing my deck. I work every so often but not every day. Can anyone help ?
Hey Alex what is the program you use for the deck trackers on the side
I thought for sure I was going to feel bad about not picking up Valentina when this month arrived but pleasantly surprised to see she's not in either of your decks.
Honestly, with Iron Patriot out now, Valentina is basically in shambles except maybe in very specific Anti-Venom/Ajax shells.
Took 4 keys to get her. First pull of course was a duplicate
I would like to see a video highlighting your go to decks that you always have saved in your deck list. I see the names sometimes and I'm like what in the world is in that deck lol
I was going for the Kate variant and got her on the way. Not mad about it, she makes an old archetype have a little life again. Not a meta breaker, but definitely is a shoe in for any Devil Dino deck going forward
I love the fact that Victoria Hand and Iron Patriot synergy is great
Thank you
I was lucky to get Hand and Hawkeye with just 2 keys.
They are amazing very good combo, and if you pair it with Mystique and Quintjet it rocks!
I made a Shield/Dino/Loki deck with Victoria and so far it's been a lot of fun
Vic Hand + Swarm = Strong/no-cost field control. Hellicarrier discards have more presence. Discard as a whole is faster and more efficient.
I'm hyped for the Victoria, Swarm, Bullseye deck.
If I used two keys and have Grandmaster and Kate Bishop left, but already have KB, is it still worth a roll on Grandmaster, which I. need?
My first language was C++ and unpopular opinion, but I love it. One of my favorite languages to code in 😊
Well I’m screwed because that 1 hour window will be open anytime before 8am Wednesday 🤦🏽♂️ the weekly reset here in NZ is 8am 😅💀
Last week I said 1 key and done. This week before the patch (didn’t check wasn’t aware) I said 1 and done again. Got R&G and Victoria first try and now I’m in for it when I want Moon and Bullseye :(
@00:51 Ohhhh I was confused! I only got 1000 when I got Scream again...Luckily, that gave me enough to just buy her with tokens.
God bless you for the patch news
What date is the patch
got her in 2 keys with no intention of getting her. just wanted to roll for no reason lmao. thanks for these decks alex!❤
I really think the archetype would benefit from an increase in hand size. Imagine an on reveal that increases your hand size by 2.
Hey what about black knight in handy discard
Luckily I hit both the variants and then Victoria Hand in my 3 keys... I didn't even know I'd get 1000 tokens still.
Saw it live.
Didn't know about the patch update but I hit on Victoria Hand off of 1 key 🙌🏾
I know she is a good card but will she be enough to carry a tier 3 archetype to glory? I'm not so sure about that, maybe in the future with more support.
Didn’t know. Got another Gladiator. 1K tokens. Feelsbadman
Doh! I forgot about the token window, got the 1,000 token for pull a Cassandra Nova :(
Honestly she's a must pull and lucky I got her and the other two cards while not hitting the fouth get fuvked box. But honestly I'm tempted to use more keys for her spotlight variant
ffffuck I didnt think the patch would be live before the cache cycled to next week. oh well. at least next week Ill get 2k for sure when I roll another elsa.

I need a good alliance. I’m very active and stacked
I don't know about the patch but i got her in 1 key so i guess I'm good?
Probs can’t deal with the super tiny patch window timing to get the 2k on this weeks caches;;; so I guess this week it’s gambling to “not” hit the mystery cache (which SD is apparently too incompetent to be able to have tweaked right when they announced it leading to the usual bad feels among its customers for weeks on end as they pull 1k still…)

-Griffin
Villian depends on point of View. Is Magneto a hero or villian. From a mutant point of view he does what's best for Mutant kind.
Would she be good in a surfer deck I wonder?
Suprised no mention of Loki, does he work with the card?
No, why would it, read card text 😒. Loki replaces deck not hand, old Loki would have
I rolled 3 keys and I got Kate, Grandmaster and Victoria, no duplicates. Maybe they're actively tweaking it so you're less likely to get duplicates before the patch, that or I got very lucky.
spent 3 keys got KATE BISHOP WHICH I ALREADY HAD, GRANDMASTER WHICH I ALSO ALREADY HAD, AND LASTLY I GOT SEBASTIAN SHAW GUESS WHAT I ALREADY HAD! i skipped out on rocket and groot for this :,)
Got her 4 banging in the keys but I don’t plan on getting any of the other cards this season so rolled too get her SV and 1 banged it since I foresee myself playing a lot of her
I’m running her in a Wiccan deck rn
Same.
Gotta get Moonstone to pair with her guys..
@ I’m not convinced that will be that good but moonstone is a wait and see for me
I definitely see why they made her not effect arishem cards or the thanos stones lmao
Hi Alex! I’ve been watching your content for 2 years and you’re by far my favorite! I was curious to know what’s your opinion of the state of the game right now cause it feels like it’s been dying or not as fun/stimulating, cheers!
Lasher?
“Malekith kinda sensual” followed by “gotta sauce the gob” is one hell of a one two punch
This guy never misses
Why did Victoria Hand buff your Moon Girl in the last match? She wasn't created in the hand
VH on bar sin is insane
The patch thing being informed via discord is stupid
☝This
They are amongst the worst communicators in gaming I’ve ever seen
I played 4D chess and used my 2 keys already and hit the Grand Master & Kate Bishop alts. Looks like I’ll earn another key between now and next Tuesday. My odds to get 2k tokens or Victoria just skyrocketed 😂
Ughhhh I hate this game
SD should reimburse everyone the extra 1K token difference if they hit the whammy cache before the patch went live.
"Should..."
I mean, announcing it so many weeks in advance and letting people keep pulling for 1k knowing this (and all my pulls have hit it since…) is like…typical SD “why the hell would you do it that way…?” Kind of thing.
Preach.
I always thought that this game would be great with Arishem...but I guess he has been nerfed too strongly for that to work, right?
Where did you pop up from?? 😅
Is this 2k tokens thing a one time thing?
permanent change until thy implement something even better according to them
Luckily got her in the second key after Kate Variant
Variant is better than the new card. (Your comment convinced me to pull and I got the same exact pulls)
I really like that Kate variant so I was ready to spend 4 keys to get her. Got her in one pull...now I'm sad and conflicted
Forget about the patch and got 1000 tokens god damnitttt
Frigga replacement???? Im thinking nico
Really suprised no one is putting her into a moon girl dump deck. I thought that would have been the best place for her by far, considering how bad a lot of the dino support is and how good those decks are at generating 1/5s
Hey, this is exactly what I did and it slapped!
Woah intro!!
Is she works in arishem or loki?
No. Because those are generated in your deck and not your hand
@beckernicholas1596 oh I see. Thanks for taking your time to answer me
I rolled and got the 1000 tokens 😡😡 - should have waited!!!
"We've got some, (insert card name) gameplay".
I got 4 cards i don’t have I’m cool no need to wait
She's a decent card so far. I have her in my sasquatch deck.
Dang I wish I had listened to this first. First key - Ravona, 1000 tokens.
I dont know why, but I have gotten the last 5 cards is one key, i have 5 keys saved up
The 0-5 swarm reminds me of sabertooth, it is unimaginable that discarding a card gives you 2 free 0-5s when destroying a card that you spent energy on only gives you 1 0-5. Justice for sabertooth pls😭😭🙏
"Where you start is where you end up"
The most depressing statement I've heard in 2025
ive been scammed the last 3 weeks out of 6 keys with no new cards. Idk if the patch will be enough to keep me in the game.

Love you Alex thanks for the content.
I got victoria hand on my first draw 😮
Must be my birthday gift from SD
Hmmm so yeah we won't have long to do that Victoria Hand weekend mission then
It normally doesn't take long to win four games with a card
@beckernicholas1596 depends sometimes winning 4 times can take forever
Here's the list I started with for her , I like it.
Hood ,Agony,Maria Hill ,Nico Mino ,Mirage ,Grand Master
, Hawkeye Kate Bishop, Victoria Hand, Agent Venom, Mystique, Frigga, Beast

Got victoria in one key. I used all my luck for 2025 already.
Game 1 has me frustrated that he never played in orchis forge with victoria hand
Ugh. Already spent my (4) keys ... 1000 tokens. Should have waited for the window.
New Cerebro let's goooo.
I actually want her, but damn that variant is 1000% better than her base art 😭 I gotta spend at least 5 to get it
Bruhhhh, Ive already rolled my keys and 1000 tokens are wasted😭😭😭
People overlooking a little bit that she's an ongoing card.
