    Can s4/5 drops be in any cache or is it just the card one in each set? I’ve been basing my progress going back to my last two cards in a row which was knull then next cache kingpin, but counting out from there it breaks at a certain point and I hit 2 cards in one set so I’m wandering it the other series cards throw off or supersede the sets of 4

    Just the guaranteed card Cache. So yeah, one in every 4 Caches you open will have a guaranteed Series 3 card that has a miniscule chance of "upgrading" to a Series 4 or Series 5 card.

    You're guaranteed a Series 4 card for every 40 Caches you open, BUT, it isn't on the 40th Cache. You could open a Series 4 card then wait another 79 Caches before opening another. A good rule of them is to expect a Series 4 card every 40-50 Caches. Sometimes fewer, sometimes more.

    I wonder if the event launch messed up/reshuffled sets or something then. It doesn’t in the scheme of things matter I know but it was surprising and weird to “break” what I thought I knew was the pattern.

    It shouldn't break. I'd maybe recount again to triple check the math. Sometimes when I was back counting, I'd visually scroll quickly and accidentally count a variant art as a new card.

    I got Valkyrie from a cache so that feels pretty good. What's a good Valkyrie deck that doesn't also need Bast?

    I don't understand how New York works. My opponent moved Cosmo to New York, I played Silver Surfer on New York, but it still activated the On Reveal ability?

    How does New York work?

    Also, finally hit 60 and all I got was a lousy pixel variant (how many of them are there :( )

    Picked up Galactus from the shop. Now only Kang away from owning all the (as of now) Forever5s.

    After that I'll pick up selective Series 4s that I like.

    Galactus is an even dumber card to play with than I thought it would be

    Finally got the hood to show up in the shop for my free series 3 card, that’s nice to have

    9 cards left in series 3. Doubt I get them all before the next series drop, but with the token changes is that for the best? Incomplete means more tokens on the track, right?

    Just pulled M'Baku from a cache and now I am one card short of being Series 3 complete, just Venom left. Have Black Panther in the shop pinned as I just need 300 more tokens to buy him and since I have Shuri already he seems like a good pick up.

    Just reached 85?! My new highest rank ever. Got there with Bast Patriot that Hoogland featured not too long ago. While I'm still feeling the deck out, certain card combos are getting early snaps out of me.

    Speaking of snaps, I got WAY more aggressive with my snapping running my Ramp deck. Having Electro on curve into either of my 5 drops or Dr. Doom + Odin was an instant snap. I was winning a lot more 2-cube games that would have been 1-cube wins by older Dover. Just got to find those hooks with the Patriot deck so I can snap more optimally.

    Patriot > Mystique with non-ability card(s) in each lane is a snap against nearly anything not Shuri. It's a snap against Shuri if you'll be able to Valkyrie or Iron Man + something on 6.

    Hell, turn 1 Bast hitting at least two cards is nearly a snap.

    Oh yeah, I had a Bast opening hand with Patriot, Mystique, and Iron Man in my hand. It was an insane blowout.

    During my climb, I had game that went like this:
    • Turn 1 Superflow. We both play 2 drops mid with the extra energy.
    • Turn 2 something. Opponent plays Wave middle and I play Debrii right.
    • Turn 3 Rickety Bridge. Neither one of us can play a card since the Rocks blocked Superflow and our hands cost 4

    Their obvious Galactus got shut down causing them to run. Honestly, they should have stayed in if they had Wolverine since he could win the game post Galactus. But whatever, I'll take that cube.

    Seems like all the early access snap zone readers are playing Kazar in Shuri for some dumb reason.
    Trying to win priority off each other?
    I don't get it.

    Looking at the decks on snap zone, I'm probably mistaking a Zoo list for Shuri because of the same front end (Zero, Titania, Sunspot, Armor).
    Unsure what that has over Shuri or why I'm seeing it a lot now.
    Unless Shuri is just not good at the "Win all 3 lanes" task.

    Still thinking it's the prerelease tier article.
    Something probably featured like this:

    And 100.

    Sera/Zabu/Hazmat control is great:
    # (2) Luke Cage
    # (2) Hazmat
    # (2) Zabu
    # (2) Sentinel
    # (2) Mysterio
    # (2) Lizard
    # (3) Bishop
    # (4) Absorbing Man
    # (4) Shang-Chi
    # (4) Enchantress
    # (4) Typhoid Mary
    # (5) Sera

    Just dropping T6 Hazmat/Cage messes with the opponents' math irrevocably, especially if you lead with Lizard or dropping things into the common negative power locations.
    And double Shang-chi/Enchantress is powerful in and of itself.

    Game of the season had the opponent play Leader onto contested mid, guarding the empty right lane.
    Only to pull, a lone Hazmat.
    (In the spirit of 'have to be in it to win it'.)

    Real slapstick rat trap in the cookie jar moment.
    Lost him both right and left, when before I was hoping Shang-chi mid was going to win me that lane.
    But he instead completely misfired.


    Also got to 80 (from 70) with Cer3bro, in like two weeks.
    Before getting to 81 from the wrong direction.

    .

    It's too reliant on drawing MODOK and Hela in the right order. I need an alternate win condition. I think I drop Adam Warlock he sucks. Moon Girl also isn't doing it, having extra copies of big bodies isn't helpful if I don't get MODOK and Hela out, and usually not needed if I do. Dracula? Lizard/Polaris for a low cost big body?

    I know exactly who Colleen Wing and Lady Sif will target. Blade is only to be played late when I don't have MODOK and just need discards and an empty hand for Dracula/Apocalypse. Hell Cow might be better when I get it? Right now Wolverine discard is my only way into closed locations, would Vision or Doom be better? The only other problem is Morbius is kind of wimpy if I don't hit MODOK, with only 4 possible discards, probably fewer.

    They're good bundles if you were going to spend more on Snap anyways, and they're bad if you weren't.

    Like todays deal is about on par with Throg or Apocalypse last time I checked, just at a more bite sized cost. You obviously cannot offset that cost with free gold though.

    Also someone told me that Armor variant makes her look like Ronald McDonald and now I can't unsee it. It's the second variant ruined after Lucille Bluth Professor X.

Any thoughts on Thanos versus the other series 5 locked cards, including the 2 upcoming ones (Living Tribunal and High Evolutionary) which nothing is confirmed they will be series 5 locked but they may be?

    Those 2 (and I hadn't even heard about Living Tribunal) being Series 5 is pure speculation. Reasonable speculation, but speculation.

    That said, Thanos' playstyle still appeals to me more than Galactus. Kang seems interesting, useable in a variety of decks for spying.

    https://marvelsnapzone.com/kitty-pryde-theorycraft/

    This article increases my hype for her.

    Looks like you can grab and replay her each turn except 1, making her 10 power at the end.
    If we look at the card from a pure energy to power ratio, Kitty Pryde ends up being quite weak in the end. She is a 1/0, a 2/2, a 3/4, a 4/6, a 5/8 or a 6/10, so only weaker numbers compared to the power of cards for this cost.

    However, each time you do that, you can put her in a different lane. She can be your 4th card in a lane, clogging it for strategy purposes, but then you can pick her up and put something else in her space. Pump her up and then Moon Girl copy her. Play her with Bishop and/or Angela. She buffs the Collector each bounce. And it's not an On Reveal or Ongoing, so it's really hard to block. Killmonger would be by far the biggest threat, but you can keep her in hand for a turn to dodge him.
