Marvel Snap's Amazing Spider-Season Swings into Action!
September brings a thrilling new season to Marvel Snap (Free), themed around everyone's favorite web-slinger and his amazing allies! This season introduces a game-changing new card mechanic: Activate. Unlike "On Reveal," Activate abilities let you choose when to trigger their effects, adding a strategic layer and opening up exciting new possibilities.
The season's star is the Season Pass card, Symbiote Spider-Man: a 4-cost, 6-power powerhouse. His Activate ability lets him absorb the lowest-cost card at his location and copy its effects, even triggering On Reveal abilities again! This card promises to be incredibly powerful and likely a target for future adjustments.
For a full overview of the season's launch, check out the official video:
Beyond Symbiote Spider-Man, the update introduces several other exciting additions:
-
Silver Sable: A 1-cost, 1-power card with an On Reveal ability that steals 2 power from the top card of your opponent's deck.
-
Madame Web: An Ongoing ability card that lets you move one card at her location to another location once per turn.
-
Arana: A 1-cost, 1-power card with an Activate ability: move the next card you play to the right and give it +2 Power. A valuable addition to movement-based decks.
-
Scarlet Spider (Ben Reilly): A 4-cost, 5-power card with an Activate ability that spawns an identical clone at another location.
The new season also features two intriguing locations:
-
Brooklyn Bridge: Cards cannot be played here on consecutive turns, requiring strategic planning.
-
Otto's Lab: The next card played here pulls a card from your opponent's hand into play.
This Spider-themed season introduces exciting new strategic options with the Activate ability and fresh cards and locations.
