Cozy mentioning a Will Smith movie with zombies and Alex saying "Hitch" had me dying

[@mojotheclown82]

also they're vampires 😂

[@nix9vex13]

Mailbag: Since Alex' side of the SnapChat is always shorter than Cozy's side ... Why not get Alex another talking point? And what would it be?

[@sirstizz7912]

Maybe they both discuss the top decks of the week?

[@sirstizz7912]

@@PilotFan313 calm down there buddy

[@HenryZhoupokemon]

@@PilotFan313ur right, I think Alex has mentioned he always edits his side to be shorter, cozy keeps more of the convo in

[@TheKayasto]

i wouldnt mind them talking more about themselves in a whole segment dedicated to just that.

[@HsgMat]

They should end it with a friendly battle and just highlight clips

[@kylexile87]

Most fun Sersi game I had was where District X happened. Another guy had Doc Oct me in another lane and I ended up with Iron Lad Copying Arnima Zola and hitting Sersi into each lane leveling up each of my cards.

[@Trocify225]

Awesome 😂

[@mvsilocs]

I always see people saying spider ham wrecks Thanos but I always run Mobius for the absolute perfect counter-counter: I get a 0 cost 10 power pig for an explosive last turn :)

[@semperick]

MMM is so underrated

[@littleroach4909]

I’ve been doing the same thing but I still think there should probably be a change made. Cuz rn we’re kinda just back to not playing thanos for thanos… he should be the most powerful piece in his deck not just a side piece you’re hoping gets hammed so you can play MMM and drop a 0-10

[@peterkefalos7430]

@@littleroach4909why though canonically the stones are what Thanos is after without them he’s just a big strong dude. It honestly makes more sense that the stones are the key pieces though there should be a bigger payoff for playing them all

[@littleroach4909]

@@peterkefalos7430 still feels kinda lame that thanos himself is one of the weakest parts of the thanos deck. Also it’s lame that there’s literally nothing you can do to prevent a spider ham. He’s always in the leftmost spot and they can ham you on 1 and you literally cannot do anything to counter it. Very boring imo

[@MrHam7166]

Hot take: Soul stone should prevent all opponent effects from hitting Thanos including Ham, Iceman, scorp, etc.

[@Dan016]

Best Snap Chat closing ever! 😂 Costco is pretty awesome, ngl 😅

[@timperkins4547]

They need to make deck specific borders. Like you select it at the deck creation level that hits all cards in that deck rather than just individual cards

[@thekingkilla7166]

The collection track rewards are terrible once you get to a certain point definitely needs a buff.

[@PartTimeTriathlete]

The amount my Sersi pulled out a destroy card was unreal 😂

[@LightLegion]

Cozy mentioned in another vid that it's risky converting cost 1 and cost 2.

[@reelmagic88]

@@LightLegioni havent done math or anythin right, but i feel like 3-costs are the best Sersi target, especially Broodling.

[@LightLegion]

@@reelmagic88 no Carnage, venom, or deathlok. But as cozy said, you might get 3 Attumas who kill themselves. Lol.

[@ROFLWAFFLELAWL4]

@@reelmagic88 3 costs and most 4 costs are all good targets really. I don't believe you have any hard board wiping or game losing cards in the 4 and 5 costs that could negatively affect you, except for maybe literally Mr.Negative and Attuma.

[@Emmet0223]

Just played a sersi game, winning by a lot, then transformed hood, debrii, and white tiger. I got master mold (buffing their devil dino), white queen (stealing Mr. Negative), and then my white tiger turned into destroyer and nuked my whole board

[@Yilmaister]

Love how you didn't even try to pronounce my tag 😂😂😂 Thanks for featuring my question 🫰

[@jonnyjackjaw]

Another day of the Best podcast/video ❤ keep it coming

[@FiestaTX17]

I love Sersi a lot, she’s really fun and works well most the time. My only complaint is hitting a destroy card or MODOK, if that happens it feels so bad

[@SaulGoodman24]

Alex, thanks to you and Cozy for always keeping us informed on all the new cards! It helps me save my resources for the cards that are really worth it! You and Cozy are the voices of the Marvel Snap community!

[@Lvl99Ditto]

Mailbag: call me crazy but i think they should add more vanilla cards. Something to give patriot to mess around with at lower level play. But then on the higher side of play have HE do his thing and maybe introduce a new playstyle other than giving -1. Do yall think that would help with new player experience or think itll be a nightmare on HE side of things?

[@sleepwellmychild]

I believe SD has specifically stated somewhere that they don't intend to add more vanilla cards.

[@habijjj]

No one would spend keys to get a no ability vard

[@hritviknijhawan1737]

They did say they might add a 7-cost Vanilla card... A 7/16 would be good I think.

[@Lyrici17]

I love that Alex visits the Costco subreddit, lol. That makes my day (it had me cackling).

[@dheff84]

I watched yesterday and picked up Zemo Sersi after you mentioned it. This deck is the most fun I've had with the game in a while. 🔥 🔥 🔥

[@shaky_brains8608]

Mailbag: With Alex's love for Costco I had to ask if either of you have met anyone with a similar love for a store. This made me think of a kid I knew in highschool who almost exclusively wore culvers shirts everyday. So much so that we thought he was sponsored.

[@Covain88]

So pumped for the Costco chat podcast 🙌

[@Shax22132]

Thanks for the video.

[@DealwithitHand]

Thena spotlight variant is too desirable to not make it a spotlight.

[@ChipCrisper]

You Canadians get CONES with your ice cream at Costco??? Not here in the states...

[@batmanwins5701]

Yeah man, it's so cold here that the ice cream would never melt if we held it in our icy hands. The cone is the buffer zone.

[@davidzarate5820]

MAILBAG: you guys should do a friendly battle each week as part of the Snapchat. You can have an ongoing scoreboard on who has more wins week to week.

[@alexthegreat1233]

Mail bag question: what if cards had additional abilities when played with another card. For example, if venom is played on a lane with Spiderman, they combine, spidy gains 3 power, and destorys an enemy card. Or if vision is played with sarlet witch her ability goes off again, or if woverine and sabertooth destory each other when played in the same lane, only once per game.

[@cjserrano8130]

Sersi tranformed my White Tiger into Destroyer.... Game done... LOL

[@graciecatanddad4089]

Love the demo deck idea

[@Yilmaister]

I had to sit through a Wong-Mystique-Surfer-Odin on Onslaught's Citadel play the other day because the game didn't fast forward. They didn't play into one lane so I got that, they seemingly got the other with 200+ power, until I played Shangers. He and Jeff go into every deck and make them better, no questions asked

[@thekingkilla7166]

I wasn’t gonna get this card and ended up getting it an it’s been pretty fun for the most part.

[@gustavogrosch]

Kitty is also the Red Hulk ultimate counter

[@batmanwins5701]

Kitty + hope, + thena + angela + collector + sasquatch + elsa + slik/kraven. Kitty blocking goblins and annhilus, shutting down nevula. Kitty is the cats meow. Her versatility and ability to dodge killmonger puts her in a league of her own as a one drop. I think her only rival is nico.

[@paullaforet9348]

I just got Nocturne and I can't believe how good this card is.

[@torritate5081]

I work at Costco and we do love Alex. It is true.

[@AlexanderCoccia]

:D!!

[@CatMandiano]

The sersi surfer deck is super intriguing to me. Especially with a Magik. Flip all your 2s-3s the round before Shaw and surfer

[@PhillupD]

4:36 having rocks turn into havoc won me multiple games. As someone who stays in alot Sersi gives me possible win conditions on so many 50/50’s.

[@theportlandkevin597]

I really miss the Polish Dog from Costco. They stopped selling it in the US a few years ago.

[@Mr_Paw_revised]

Mailbag: Do You feel like Second Dinner is starting to encounter a Power Creep problem? Lately cards were either very good or rather skippable. Also number of adjustments to new cards is rising. Can all this lead to Series 6 being introduced with 9000 tokens price? It would be godlike cards, meta defining, archetype creating and very expensive. Second Dinner would say: „We know it’s broken good, but it’s Series 6”

[@chrisdofer]

Okay I'm trying to have some fun and you both sold me on Sersk. And like Charlie in the chocolate factory I only had enough money/keys for one roll and got her! Man they really need to fix the card acquisition, I play every day and don't get most released cards.

[@natessnaps]

Mailbag: I’ve been meaning to ask this for a couple weeks. I’m not one to complain about the currency, I think SD does a good job with it, however I don’t think the album rewards are calculated correctly. The four recent albums (boss babies-move your hipps) 2nd reward is 1000 credits for an all rare album and the same 1000 credits for a super rare album. The other two have 2000 tokens for a mostly rare album and 1000 for a super rare and one ultimate album. Sorry for the long winded statement/question.

[@felixschmith6735]

Greeting from germany ma man long time no seen since your dota underlords videos, just awesome how your chanal developt 😊 just want to let you know ❤

[@vincelot86]

Maybe they should add the new boarders or something else to the collection level. Like you unlock something new every 1000 levels or something so you can have something to look forward to.

[@richieagame503]

Borders in the collector caches and also pmv. Thereshpuld be 1200 variants. Throw them both at low rates. Make them more exciting to open.

[@DiegoGonzalez-sl9je]

I genuinely think Sersi is a better than average card, definitely not a 5 star but really shines in the right on-reveal decks. It really seems like Cozy and Alex just really haven’t been able to find a great fit for Sersi in their decks. I don’t have a ton of hours to grind but I don’t think i’ve climbed faster from 50 to the 90’s ranks faster than any season since early thanos decks.

[@dtwelve2086]

Sersi , Mockingbird and the ham are staples in my builds

[@nicosia416]

Mailbag: Are there any cards you love that you wish had better variants? Or any cards you think have sick variants, but the card is trash? I gotta say I wish Iron Lad had better variants and I think Namor has some of the best in the game.

[@Breaous]

Mailbag: You mentioned not getting MODOK'd, I played against a Sersi, that changed two cards into a MODOK and Nick Fury, the Nick Fury then gave them a Hella to bring everything back and I lost because of it. Just thought y'all might find that funny lol.

[@nilesrodriguez4343]

I think Zabu should be like Lockjaw, in the sense it's ability is always there without it being an Ongoing ability.

[@rayman17420]

You can sort of kill 2 birds with 1 stone by adding some kind of demo token to the ladder caches. Have smth like 10 tokens in the caches instead of gold tickets and each token allows you to use a card you don't own 1 time. That way players get to try out cards and even decks they don't usually get to play (as they could use tokens for multiple unowned cards in the same deck) while also making normal caches a little more exciting and valuable.

[@nostrathomas8057]

Try this deck guys, Kitty,Iceman,spider ham,nebula, thena,Angela revonna,bloodstone,skar, sasquatch,Gilgamesh,Ironman I've been killing with this deck.

[@pwnmasteh]

Sersi is good as a Annhilius 2 if you run that package.

[@pixelbomb97]

Is anyone playing that old Kitty/forge/hulbuster/Shuri/Taskmaster deck? Seems like it would be cracked with Thena. At least to me.

[@screwkingsisle6459]

Ive had so many opponents play sersi transforms into carnage lol

[@Ucey365]

I think all new release cards should be free for the first 24hours upon release. That way people can have fun and get a feel for whether not to spend tokens or spotlights.

[@mrlawton75]

@alex When you guys do a ranking you should each get a Snap. When someone Snaps on a card they can place it wherever they want.. So, if (for example) Cozy wants Surfer in B and you just Snap and him in SS (Silver Surfer) where he belongs! 😁 Seriously, though, you should still have a Snap as a trump card.

[@hawktriad]

I don't like the new SOUL stone, it protects Thanos but does not reduce others. It does not protect Thanos from being hurled by Gambit though. Stones need a few more tweeks.

[@LuisTheSaint]

that bit at the end alex: what the heck are we going to talk about cozy: costco LMAO cozy is for the ppl

[@jrm454_]

Mailbag: Am I the only one getting increasingly frustrated by the new albums? Always drop with brand new variants which no one has, shop takeovers, and always costing 1200g/super rare. I think they’ve completely missed the mark on them…do you think it’ll ever get fixed? What would be your ideal album adjustments?

[@zealcrux]

When my kids ask me if Endgame has the best ending of all time, I’m gonna point them to this episode instead

[@Gxrilla3]

Moongirl makkari Ravenna has been a fun quinjet deck

[@xdsx3]

Yo Alex. Can you/Cozy set your background screen to Collection, sorted by newest? Would be interesting to see what variants you all got recently. Most content creators just default to sorted energy, so we only see the 0 or 1 energy cards

[@Joshyg731]

Mailbag: Is there a deck that you have trouble playing, no matter how much you try? And do you keep trying to get good at that deck? Ive always had that with the Loki deck, but I got infinite yesterday with it for the first time. Still don't think im great at it but I'm way better at playing Loki.

[@gustavogrosch]

Mailbag: I think Move will only be really good when they remove the "wall", I mean, go Left to Right and Right to Left

[@gustavogrosch]

Sersi is the staple back up plan for Annihilus from now on. But its the only deck for her, all other brew are copium

[@hireshmarwaha6351]

Mailbag: Hey guys, I have an idea for a Kang Rework inspired by your guys recent placement of him as F tier 5 cost. I thought he could be similar to Magik but replace the location with a location that ends the game on turn 5. This location could either be new Kang specific or a reworked TVA. This would serve as additional counter to Hela and Ramp decks with cards like Red Hulk but not too overpowered all while keeping with his theme of time manipulation. What are your guys thoughts on this?

[@helixtower5817]

Mailbag; After some time with Zabu being out of the meta. What are your thoughts in him now, should he be buffed? If so in what way, revert his nerf or something else?

[@bradleyscott6304]

Alex has been watching bynx with his magen… I mean magnetos all the way across the sky

[@omargeddonthemighty]

Don't disrespect THE landshark. TWICE today I played Shawna and the one of the cards was ebony maw and I was able to play JEFF. The second time I played sandman and guess what? I played 1 card PLUS my boy JEFF.

[@miles_0234]

Hot take: Hotdogs are a of bottom C tier food item.

[@0KT0B3R]

Mailbag: During your segment on June 17th, you went through the Best Cards in Snap. Do you realize that, besides Shang Chi and the 6 cost cards (Magneto and Ultron), all the cards are series 4 and 5 (mostly 5). Do you feel this is power creep or do you think this is part of their sales strategy to put out cards that are overly strong to get people to spend, then balance (nerf) the cards? Thoughts?

[@M.Marcel.6.9]

Mailbag : What do you think about having a speedrun game mode? You have half of the time to play your turn, so that you don't have to wait after people that take all the time of every round and you're obligated to think quick!

[@russco6985]

I think they could make Thanos better,if you get all six stones they all turn in to the gauntlet and only take up one space instead of six spaces, don't know if anyone thinks the same way?

[@SirBMW82]

Mailbag: When we're all done glorifying the movie of the year with Deadpool, do you see them ever tweaking destroy? To me it's as difficult to play as a Hela deck. I've always wondered why they let Deadpool double his damage instead of just coming back with +3/4. It's not like he grows back two arms when he loses one!

[@rellik4193]

Spotlights was the only thing keeping me from trying for Sersi.

[@braxtonmiranda7224]

Man I played this game so much and then took a break and now theres so many new cards that I don't have and it sucks!

[@BetarayBillLover]

I know Reddit isn’t the majority but my god you would not think buying a border is a bad thing if that’s your social of choice

[@Mordrek]

best 0 drop is wasp, best 7 is arishem and best 8 is death 🤡

[@DaveToulouse]

Mailbag: it is so easier to play creative decks during the week vs the weekend. Should casual players just skip weekend play if they want to do well...

[@mikeh10]

Mailbag: Do you think there is a downside to stating a card sucks and weeks should be missed. Do you think we're missing out on people discovering cool things with cards when they are actively ignored? I understand a deck being categorised as good or bad, but to me a card only has attributes and scenarios in which it is played, not good or bad. Would like to hear your take.

[@bigowl2542]

Damn I’ve been playing for a while now, series 3 complete and own a good few series 4-5 cards and yet I still do not own Jeff

[@jonathanruiz8697]

Mailbag: thoughts on marvel snap in game tournaments with tokens or gold to buy in and winner takes all?

[@thebrendan03]

It would turn into a place mostly played by whales

[@An.Unsought.Thought]

Hot Take: White Widow needs to be a 3 cost. In fact, I'd rather Black Widow be a 2 cost and White Widow be the 3 cost.

[@Aion08]

Oh no, let me draw my cards please!

[@morebakeder]

My problem with collectable borders is you buy it and it only applies to that 1 card. I'm not spending 900 gold on a border for just one card, If you bought a border and it unlocked for all your cards then i might consider buying it, but even then I'd rather spent my gold on a random card than a decorative border.

[@aidanparker7536]

I’m of the same opinion - I even feel like 900 and you get a set of 12 to use on any cards you want - that way you can sort deck out a whole deck

[@screwkingsisle6459]

How was the Costco chicken bake not mentioned?

[@bobby5359]

"Damn, I gotta put PANTS on!" - Alex Coccia, 2024

[@Degenerate01]

Costco Pizza is S tier

[@beetsbro_tv]

MAILBAG! How did you and Cozy meet and begin your Snapchat journey?

[@JeremyHoffman]

I respectfully disagree about Sersi being a good candidate for a series 4 release. I mean, of course I'd rather Second Dinner go back to doing some Series 4 releases. But if we take as given that most cards will release at Series 5, the question is which cards are the best candidates for Series 4 release. My answer is, cards that are simple (e.g., Cull Obsidian) and/or serve an important purpose as a tech card to correct the metagame (e.g., Mobius M Mobius). Fun should be a factor, too, and Sersi is fun. Still, weird cards like Sersi make sense as Series 5 releases. Power level shouldn't really be a factor one way or the other.

[@AvGAktion]

This dude said pass on I am Legend!?!?!? No one else find that to be blasphemy? lol

[@ksnicol12993]

Someone Has to tell cozy that they are Vampires Not zombies in I am Legend

[@Arakn1dz]

Mailbag: Thoughts on Snap having a storymode/campaign

[@simonbirch8914]

Shadow King at 2 is ridicilious, and should be mentioned. Honestly Hope Summers could easily be a 3/2. The effect is so powerful. When you have a card, that is the best at its cost, by a mile, a nerf is probably not a bad idea

[@Malvenue]

"Sersei is hot garbage." ~ Alex Coccia 2024 🤣

[@jonathanstorms4530]

Sersi is a tech card, not a "build around"

[@marcsarfati3291]

The problem with Seri, you can only build one lane. Then your F-D for the other two The card will better if text was Transform random lane Transforms lane with most cards Transform cards with 3 or less power Transform all cards in this lane on both sides

[@UndeadEggmiester]

Honestly it took me three keys for sersi and i don't regret it but i kinda fo eith how shit her catche was.

[@fernandozevallos5101]

40 seconds late!

[@jedipenguin96]

Mailbag; weird deck idea with the steggy buff: Hercules, steggy, kingpin, Polaris, kraven,, spiderman, juggernaut- just really make your opponent sad with all of the movement 😂 - what do you think?

[@batmanwins5701]

Sasquatch as a 6/12? Isnt skarr harder to cast and it is 6/11? Alex is high😂

[@MrsKing-xp5jc]

My teen daughter has a nice question for your next Snap Chat Podcast guys. I ofcourse cannot answer. Maibag: (Bee) 15 -"Hi, I know you both are not big comic followers, but if you could pick one artist or cover from any comic artist or book for any Marvel character in game or not, which one would it be?" Thank you both kindly-Mrs. King

[@BKF0308]

Imma be honest, I've never been so unmotivated to play Snap. I told myself the next/Deadpool season would be my last, but I'm not sure if I'll even make it through this one. I'm just not having fun anymore.

[@truemrfu9673]

Sersi in patriot surfer is awesome. You can change cards like forge and miter sinister into 3 cost cards if you don’t draw patriot. Then you always have the brood/absman if you do get patriot. Or you gamba sersi into brood on 5 if you don’t get anything. I’ve also been running wong and white tiger. Then sersi turns wong into a 5 cost, then a 6 cost. And tiger becomes a 6 cost too.

[@555whatever666]

The fancy paid-borders would be an awesome addition to the collection track. Replace every gold conquest ticket with one.
