[@Ghaghoi]

Hulking would gain an additional 15 if he copy’s blobs effect. If blobs on reveal goes off twice it’s pulls 15 then pulls 15 again.

[@DarthReaper]

You reading hydra bob wrong. Maybe. Anyway he only moves if someone has snapped. Like he’d never move if no one snapped

[@AlexanderCoccia]

That's how I read it

[@allanberche7902]

They confirmed on the discord weekly Q&A that Cassandra Nova will NOT be in the spotlight cache nor will she be in future caches. Instead her spot will be replaced with another series 4/5 card that at the time was yet to be determined Edit: After going back to the Q&A they specified she won’t be featured. So post Diner event she most likely will be obtainable through the random 4/5 card slot and/or the token shop

[@yugh2]

If shes not in future caches then if miss deadpools diner you'll never get her? I doubt it, no way you couldn't randomly get her in the mystery 4/5 slot or tokens.

[@allanberche7902]

@@yugh2 they implied that you have to buy her with tokens after the event is over. Hopefully they would just give her away for free after a certain period of time like Jane Foster from Nexus Events

[@yugh2]

@@allanberche7902 that makes sense. Maybe if they run the diner again she'll be a reward alongside another new card. It could help f2p with acquisition if they ran it Maybe every other month

[@r.morgan1988]

Mans snapped himself back into existence like some kind of reverse Thanos

[@INMATEofARKHAM]

That's because Alex is inevitable.

[@dynoFF30]

Alex your Hulkling Blob example does actually work. Blob gains up to 15 power, not power up the 15. For example, a peak-ed blob goes to 21 power. Hulking with Blob’s text should go up to 26+ power (if you have the power in your deck to get there)

[@caseysummers3437]

Copycat seems fantastic. The information you get from cable is really useful, now imagine getting that without even playing a card. Definitely my most anticipated card next month

[@garygross5686]

8:33 I imagine this will work like Spider Ham or Red Hulk, where Copycat actively steals the card's text in a not-so-subtle way. If you know what I mean 😉

[@foggyinc724]

Cassandra's week is gonna be 3 old cards, proxima, hope and another card we don't know yet. Devs said so in the discord.

[@insane8987]

That jeff variant is the most beautiful thing I have ever laid my eyes on.

[@EvilDeadFan1995]

Came here to post. Worth every key alone.

[@zetahoven4556]

I can easily see Copycat and Cassandra Nova becoming Jeff the Baby Land shark for 3 costs

[@shady-mx9qg]

how could they do that when nocturne is already jeff at 3 cost

[@villegzev9651]

​​​@@shady-mx9qg maybe they meant the uniqueness of the card, given no other card does what they do (copycat, Cassandra nova) +And they are pretty much irreplaceable

[@SuperboneOne]

I was hyping Copycat when she initially leaked, but I think we've gotten to the point where there may just not be space for her in most decks. Spider Ham barely sees play these days, and Copycat basically trades the power of Ham hitting something they already drew for you getting their card's effect - which could be good or could be mediocre. Certainly Copycat is a risk to play against some decks, because their cards could generate a bunch of trash on your board or could destroy your own cards or could hit Electro and be detrimental if you need to play multiple cards. The same way we saw Morph sneak into the meta this past month, we may see Copycat sneak in as a tech choice against "good cards" decks that basically guarantee you hit something beneficial to you.

[@MonkeyBanjo7]

damn.. i was scared ngl in that intro.... ig alex snapped himself back into exsistense unlike thanos who got snapped later

I cannot stop watching that magical slide in 😂😂❤

[@AcePlaysTCGs]

I'd love for Cassandra Nova to be in the Diner mode especially if it's easier to pull. Right now my once a month key pull is looking at Thanos and Cull Obsidian longingly. I like shooting for caches that contain mostly cards I don't have. Luckily it has played out once a month so far.

[@jordanatkins566]

Funny that the last cashe that was rated the lowest is probably what Ill be spending all my keys on

[@nathanstreet6939]

Hulkling isn't going to be a plug and play 6 drop like Red Hulk was. BUT I think he'll be a natural inclusion in Hela and Black Knight style decks where you want a bunch of big cards anyway, and with a little added surprise potential

[@Dank_Ol12]

I was scared in the start that Alex changes his intro😅🤣 Great addition!

[@alexanderpopov3587]

Most of the cards seem quite interesting and unique. It is a pity most of the players will have resources to enjoy only couple of them. The economy of this game is truly alwful, worse even than MTG Arena and it has been the low bar for years.

[@ashleygray1632]

Jeff and Iron Lad in the same week is great for those that don't have them!

[@BeGonTV]

A good comparison to Hulkling is Valentina, and looking at how she turned out with all the randomness, I'm also not that impressed with Emperor Hulkling

[@PhastosEnioyer]

Yea Valentina is a perfect comparison. At least at 11 power he has low downside

[@poentecontente]

Look at him go at the editing! Classy intro ;)

[@aidensimpson4427]

If hulkling hits blob, the threshold is 26. That is more than enough.

[@andremarquess]

Now here's an actual month I might skip entirely to stack up keys xD

[@wifnroajfwbr]

On the Marvel Snap discord, they said (in a team answer) that Cassandra Nova will not be in the Spotlight cache that week and there will instead be another S4/5 card.

[@thomashenley3890]

i dont understand anyone being anything other than super hyped about marvel boy? Assuming turn 1 and 2 you have dropped 3x1 cost cards or a squirrel girl, turn 3 you drop marvel boy and by the end of the game he has become a 3/14 the pressure alone on your opponent seeing the cards tick up and not knowing exactly which ones are going to go up is going to have people retreating edit: throw it in high evo, misty sunspot and nebula, drop a marvel boy and let them cook

[@MeisterGlanz86]

17:02 Well,thats a strong Argument!

[@DavidReigia]

To be honest September and October cards are going to be a must have cards il save all my keys till then. Spider season then symbiote season I'm looking at that anti venom thinking it's going to like Phoenix Force for symbiote

[@shaky_brains8608]

18:35 😂😂😂 I'ma have to roll this week for the variants alone bruh. I don't care for speed but the variants are amazing. Plus I don't have any for either jeff or ironlad

[@innerchimp9783]

So Cassandra makes playing Arishem extra bad 🎉🎉🎉

[@joseph2000117]

Loki, Dawkhawk, and most combo decks will spank Arishem

[@DarthEqualizer]

The only week I care about is July 30-Aug 6

[@ASliceOfGamingPodcast]

My problem with Hulkling is that fact he himself is a 6 drop. Yeah every once in a while you might get a good roll of a 6-11 Doctor Doom, but more often than not, it's not going to be anything like that. You might as well add the 6 drop card that works best for the deck you're using instead of relying on Hulkling's randomness. As you said, he's a weaker Magneto or slightly buffer Sasquatch or Onslaught in some good outcomes. But if you benefit from getting like an Arnim Zola or Onslaught, might as well just run actual Arnim Zola or Onslaught because it benefits your deck and they are 6 drops either way. Now if he was a 4 drop or 5 drop. Now we're talking a different story. Because now you're getting the benefit of the effect of a 6 drop card on a cheaper card. Now the risk seems more favorable of getting a 4 or 5 drop Doctor Doom or even a Zola. Obviously you would have to lower that 11 power to something weaker because a 4 or 5 with 11 power and a random 6 drop effect is busted.

[@ErikRedin]

Alex, I know you don't like cards that rely on RNG, so I'm not shocked that you're not high on Hulking, but I don't think the comparison to Valentina is accurate. A 4/-3 Knull in a non destroy deck is worthless, a 6/11 Knull can be cracked if you just Shang Chi one card. A 6/11 Leader is insane. There are definitely some objectively terrible pulls: Infinaut, Giganto, Destroyer, and Agatha (if she's included), but going through the list of 6-drops, I feel like it's much more favorable for Hulking than it was for Valentina. Plus Second Dinner has given him the weakest spotlight week of the month, so if past is prologue, it means they think he's either really good or at least a card people will really want.

[@HeroDarkStorn]

Wait, how should Pixie work? She shuffles costs, there's really only one was to make it work, and that's how it does :) so., I just want to explain why from implementation perspective, it's the only way, with examples, I don't mean no harm ;) 1) 4 cost can get 4 cost from another card - ok, what is supposed to happen in Surfer, where you have 7 3-cost cards? Some cards just get random cost from... somewhere? 2) Your single 6-cost can keep it's cost - sure, so what happens when you play Pixie with one card in deck? It just has no cost and becomes unplayable?

[@TheTobeyLP]

no way marvel boy is only 3.5 i def think its gonna warp a kill monger meta

[@UndeadEggmiester]

That nerf to bob baffles me because he wasn't that great before but now he's kinda unplayable in anything besides maybe zoo. Wiccan and speed are secret buffs to quicksilver and Domino. But I don't think they're to great. Next month I'm definitely pulling on copycats and the Ajax boxes. I might try for that variant for hope.

[@NERD-ROBOT]

I think you're sleeping on Wiccan. Speed higher than Wiccan...oof! Guess we'll see. Agree with Cannonball.

[@ReeseGhost]

The Hydra Bob change is incredibly disappointing. I hope it gets reverted but it probably won't. And it's really lame to see that this is the first "snap" ability when it's such a throw away effect (that might even bug out the game lol). Already expecting them to hype it up in marketing and then act surprised when he has a near 0% playrate. "Wow, now isn't this exciting, the first card to have an ability when a player snaps!" Uh, sure. The old ability to leave a losing location fit the character so much better too, it's like he's joining the winning side like the goofy soldier he is. Super disappointing to see that they're still perfectly content with making Martyr-tier cards.

[@NOVA_SITH]

I think Hulkling is gonna be busted. Sure, just like in a Loki style deck , you don't know what you'll get with the amount of randomness. Now with Pixie, a Loki, a Hulkling and an Arishem in the deck for instance, it's gonna be hard for the opponent to pinpoint what exactly you are playing.

[@ethanmontgomery6132]

Savage jab at Zabu at 14:55, but deserved. Even in decks that seem ideal for him, I find myself still just running Psylocke instead. The additional versatility she provides, as well as not being affected by Mobius is well worth only 1 power loss.

[@michaelbowling2348]

Loki goes against everything I stand for as a Snap player. I absolutely hate it, and I actively disrespect every player who plays Loki. No fist bumps for you, good sir.

[@deadroot3711]

I personally think Hulkling will just exist in decks for the moments he does have the "good text" and people will still have a significant 6-drop counterpart like Red Hulk for when Hulkling is a bust or not drawn. 3 stars is totally fair

[@buckeyeguy753]

I love the way you split out different statistics and ratings per card. Idk why content creators keep rating these spotlight weeks as a whole when they've had Modok, Knull, ect. 10 times already. Most people have some amount of cards in the spotlight each week!

[@MetalRatex]

Copycat seems good. Ajax will be combined with Hazmat, it'll be interesting. Cassandra will be the newest annoyance. Hulkling will be very good, despite some ocasional bad rolls.

[@falloutgar918]

They HAVE to change Wiccan’s text. He’s one of the most powerful mutants, and this card outright sucks.

[@lucaleone4331]

Hydra bob sounds like the dumbest card Ive seen in a while. I guess 1 cost 4 power tho is pretty decent to just get on the board, without a really negative effect. But luckily looks like an easy skip week so I can save up!

[@LyonKnight24KX]

Man the DP season I was excited for but Hydra Bob and AJax for changed so much. I might skip the first two weeks to stake keys.

[@davetorres8529]

Ajax needed to be onreveal , you can’t play Luke cage in your own deck which limits your ceiling , and if they play him he gets ruined. Hopefully he gets changed to an on reveal or even an activate

[@kidnamedjulian]

Speed‘s ceiling is so low for the condition. I honestly think he will be a 2 star card just like Hulkling and Ajax. I don't know if this is a hot take but all these cards are either too inconsistent, weak or easily counterable.

[@Faltzerbeast90]

I laughed so hard at the DH popularity 🤣 hes like at least 30% now if ahrishem is 70% Such a busted card its so annoying 😅

[@tachikazetyler2916]

Is Ajax the same one from the first Deadpool movie? Francis who called himself Ajax??

[@TheKayasto]

Wiccan text makes no sense. so if you spent every single energy in the game. you get 2 bonus energy at the end of the game....when you don't need energy because the game is over. I don't understand

[@TConradijr]

I've used 8 spotlight keys in a row and not gotten a single of the new cards. Every time it's variants. I'm basically done with this game now

[@mikkEpr0]

How dare you do nimrod dirty like that? I challenge you to play one of my favorite decks: Carnage, Grandmaster, Wolverine, Magic, Venom, Deathlok, Shuri, Hobgoblin, Nimrod, Zola, Galactus, Destroyer. Super fun and flexible deck that leaves your opponent guessing your final plays

[@felipecortesjaramillo9561]

😂😂😂 look how they massacred my boy

[@Solemnyty]

I agree with Emporer Hulkling feeling a bit weak... but i think Wiccan looks quite strong.

[@joseph2000117]

I think Wiccan And Ajax are bait cards (Ajax being slightly better). I think Cassandra Nova and Copy cat are must haves

[@TheGingerlie]

These ratings make no sense. How does a 2 star card, a 3 star card, and a 4 star card, equal out to 2 star average? That would make it a 3 star average. That math ain't mathing

[@jordanatkins566]

As a free to play player, I hate that copycat is grouped with two cards I already own... Gonna have to believe in the heart of the cards.

[@Jpruitt3iii]

Alex, I think having information from the Hawking at the beginning of the game while being able to use the ability is at least four star

[@juliusjohndiego1833]

Hydra Bob would be mental in the upcoming event where you can snap an infinite amount of times betting on your bubs.
