Who I'm Chasing with Keys - Marvel Snap - November Spotlight Caches

[@gcookie22]

Nice to see a lower collection level content creator. The new card release analysis from perspective of a non complete collection is needed in the scene

[@D4REPlays]

@gcookie22 Thank you! Honestly when I started I recognized that so I'm really glad people are enjoying it!

[@eannane8712]

Yeah I'm pretty close to complete but I find this interesting too

[@LennyGabri]

What I really like about you, that you are so casual. You don't have every card like many f2p players so i can identify more with you. It's refreshing. Keep it up

[@D4REPlays]

@LennyGabri It really means a lot hearing that it's relatable, so thank you so much!

[@aligertor]

even so it feels strange in the first moment that u talk about "your problems" in fact its actually the closest to a good advice for players that people can find. As all the other content creators just hype every card but u show the process of decision making very transparently and realistically. good approach, i like it

[@D4REPlays]

@aligertor Thank you so much! I worry I ramble through my thoughts too much so it's good to hear this!

[@zerklajerk659]

Absolutely loved High voltage. Wish we could get to a point where there’s always a rotating casual mode to play.

[@D4REPlays]

@zerklajerk659 Agreed. I don't need to be sweating for my dailies.

[@BigJohnny214]

Only going for Gorr. Just for the cool factor

[@D4REPlays]

@BigJohnny214 I was literally thinking that when i was doing this video. Gorr is just a cool looking character.

[@ParkerH22]

Annihilus Bounce with Werewolf used to be a powerhouse deck about a year ago resulting in nerfs to Annihilus, Sentry, & Wolf. One of my favorite decks.

[@Bongkaiii]

Great advice as always. Frigga and Fenris week probably the only ones I’m going all in on. Really want that Copycat spotlight variant. Would like Gorr but only if I have the tokens for him.

[@D4REPlays]

@Bongkaiii Great weeks! I would really like a few of the variants but going to hold off. The copycat and Thena ones are real good...

[@DieDieNacho]

I started playing the game at the same point you did, so it is very interesting to compare the differences in both collections.

[@D4REPlays]

@DieDieNacho I am curious what collection level are you and how close to series 3 complete?

[@DieDieNacho]

@D4REPlays Collection level 4557, with 9 Series 3 cards yet to collect.

[@D4REPlays]

@@DieDieNacho Oh so literally right in line! nice!

[@DieDieNacho]

@D4REPlays Yep, I started right towards the end of the Blink season, too. Loved the video, and I'm looking forward to seeing more!

@@DieDieNacho4786 with 5 series left to go! Right there with you guys

[@MrStatistx]

Haha, i know it does not help you at all, but i am so happy to finally see someone on youtube not having all those fancy cards either XD

[@DrStryde]

You earned a sub just from the way you talked about Legion xD Edit: Gorr is gonna go insane in a negative deck

[@D4REPlays]

@DrStryde haha, it's a real love/hate relationship. Oof I didn't even think about him in a negative deck... that could be so good!

[@Oomomo325]

Yes this the content we need. We need series 3 content creators for the every day man!

[@D4REPlays]

@Oomomo325 One of us! Sadly I'm going to have to hide in shame once i hit series 3 complete soon...

[@Riceburner427-x8q]

Thanks for the content 🎉 high voltage was a different mindset. Collectors vault is a slap in the face.

[@BryanRoach]

High Voltage was the best thing to ever happen in the game imo, it was the most fun I've ever had. Sure you had some goofies out there sweating but for the most part everyone was playing for fun and trying out crazy combo decks. It should definitely be added to the game as a permanent mode. Anti-Venom has potential but to get the most out of him you'll need to have Howard in play and then hope RNGesus blesses you in how your draws go so he lines up with something along the lines of IM, Knull, Taskmaster etc. Supergiant is criminally underrated by the majority of the playerbase because they don't realize just how strong her disruption is. There's a ton of decks that crumble if you disrupt their T4 or T5 play. I'm going for Frigga and Red Guardian on their week, if I end up getting Copycat during the process I wouldn't mind but ideally I'd get them in the first 2 keys. After that it's all in on Gorr, I already have some theorycrafted decks to slap him in where he'll definitely shine and a few more potential ones. The rest of the weeks either only have one card I'd want so they're not worth gambling on or have nothing I'm interested in. As for you referencing your saved up tokens and wanting Sage all I can say is she's one of the few cards I wouldn't hesitate to drop 6k tokens on if I didn't have her. She's an absolute powerhouse and has won me a ridiculous amount of games by hitting crazy power numbers (regularly hits 40+ and has hit 80-90+ often enough). I personally thought Toxin was overrated so I skipped him and haven't seen anything from people playing him that swayed my opinion on him. The only bounce decks I play are movebounce and I'd rather have Falcon to pick up my 1drops no matter where they are and Beast for his cost reduction effect than him. The bounce deck that everyone is gassing Toxin up in gets folded by Killmonger, Sera Control and gets outpowered by a ton of other decks and has been free cubes for me ever since everyone and their mama started playing it. Havok is a great card that continues to be slept on by the playerbase. He fits into a variety of decks and has crazy power potential for a 2drop, even if you had the worst-case scenario of playing him unbuffed on T6 he still ends up at above average power for a 2drop.

[@bob_penguin]

Congratulations on 1k subs. Well deserved! I’m a new player and really relate to your content and how you deliver it. Keep em coming!

[@D4REPlays]

@bob_penguin Thank you! Welcome to snap and glad content it helpful!

[@Blazecap]

For my plans to I will spend ALL 4 keys for Mal and Freg weeks. I don't have most of the cards in those weeks. From there, since we don't even know what december looks like yet, I think, regardless, I'm gonna save for the rest of this year.

[@D4REPlays]

@Blazecap Those are great weeks, and yeah saving seems to be a good idea right now.

[@StrawhatMonster]

Honestly im saving keys for Werewolf by night and finris wolf only cards im getting this season besides that just loading up on keys for some hopefully good pulls next season ive got 2 keys now im gonna try to make it to 3 before the end of the week

[@munteanucatalin9833]

Werewolf by night can also be an excellent keep prio card in most decks with a low curve. With Gorr, multiple on reveal look extremely good to play. Frigga and Fenris week 4 keys... The rest can wait. Also you get 1.25 keys per week and even more if you are in a good alliance / factor in free credits from ladder and from season caches.

[@D4REPlays]

@munteanucatalin9833 WWBN will be a lot of fun to play around with, and you're right the synergies with Gorr are going to be really good!

[@Tyron-u9c]

as a fairly new player still to snap and busy with my pool 3 grind but oh boy is it painfully slow and time gated and doesnt help me being f2p also but atleast it feels like i can relate to u since u also at a lower collection level, i think high voltage was a huge success i loved it hope it comes back altho its not for every1 being not a competitve game mode and all but i feel majority of the playerbase loved it

[@D4REPlays]

@Tyron-u9c The grind is real for sure! Really hoping they make adjustments to that soon. I do agree high voltage had a wider appeal than just the competitive players which i felt may have been the opposite with deadpools diner.

[@Austinpowers869]

Going to try for Anti-Venom just because I got lucky this month and was able to open caches with one wasting one key for each, but the two cards that I'm really hyped for are Fenris Wolf and Gorr

[@D4REPlays]

@Austinpowers869 Bonus keys are always nice to roll, lol. Fenris sounds so good on paper but we will see once we get our hands on him!

[@gavin3935]

Congratz on the 1k subs 🎉

[@D4REPlays]

@gavin3935 Thank you!!

[@tempire3523]

My best week is the first week. I couldn't pull Copycat and Red Guardian on yheir debut week. I might be able to get 3 keys for that week. We'll see.....

[@D4REPlays]

@tempire3523 I hope you can get them!

[@Incident00]

Absolutely go with Pokemon and Bazaar. I will wait for open, free Beta on that one but looks awesome:)

[@D4REPlays]

@Incident00 I'm really excited to check out Bazaar. Looks like a great concept!

[@SkuffD]

Hope you change your mind on Toxin in time. There are so many ways to bounce you don't need who you think you need. I hit infinite with a bounce running The Hood, Selene and Silver Sable abuse and Misery. That was pretty much the heart of the deck. Good luck!

[@D4REPlays]

@SkuffD I think I would have been more open to splurging on him if I knew what was coming. I know I'm going to regret not grabbing him though.

[@MrStatistx]

Collectors Vault sounds like a good idea, but then you look at your gold and it's not enough to get anything :(

[@D4REPlays]

@MrStatistx Yeah, and even worse because you can't pin them like collectors tokens...

[@BryanRoach]

The other issue is that even if you had the gold you wouldn't be progressing your collections as much to unlock the rewards on the tracks as you would if you were to buy the cheaper variants in the rotating shop. For instance why would I buy a variant for 2.4k gold to move forward one spot when I could buy 3 700 gold ones or 2 1.2k gold ones? The vault is yet another addition to the game that is only for whales.

[@vdv237]

I think Ima save for week 2. I need all those cards and they benefit my decks pretty well. Then I would love Malekith but I don't think Ill have enough keys to guarantee him. Then I'll save for Gorr and Havoc as I dont have either. Gorr sounds perfect for bounce. Love your video and input. I will definitely subscribe to keep up with you.

[@D4REPlays]

@vdv237 It really is a strong week if you dont have them! thanks so much for the sub!

[@shea42]

Super keen to go all out for Werewolf by Night. Thinking I'll skip the Frigga week - I already have Red Guardian and I feel like I'd rather slot in a three cost tech card instead of copycat.

[@D4REPlays]

@shea42 That's fair. I really enjoy copycat but I do find myself leaning towards rogue over her lately.

[@LFanimes333]

Im getting Gorr exclusively because of AV and Negative. Don’t really care about decks that play him with no “cheats”.

[@NagasakiNightmare]

Just recently made S3 complete this month. It does feel good. I guess the nominal 100-200 tokens you get per spotlight key do add something. I had a bunch of keys but had to spend 7 to get the two cards I wanted last two spotlights I used them

[@D4REPlays]

@NagasakiNightmare Congrats on the series 3 complete! Yeah the tokens in the caches will help moving forward for sure.

[@horror2705]

I loved High voltage. I hope they bring it back once a month to maybe ever second month. As for next month. I am looking forward to week 4 but I only need fenris. Week one I only want guardian but it is not worth it for me to get the other two. I might just save as much as i can for december as I don't spend much in this game. Thanks for the input.

[@D4REPlays]

@horror2705 That's tough because guardian is great. Wish we knew would December had to know whether to be conservative on keys or not.

[@Zzzodiackillerrr]

Supergiant is only good for a niche Taskmaster , Blob play, but literally shes just a worse Invisible woman. A 4 cost doing less than a 2 cost is crazy.

[@D4REPlays]

@Zzzodiackillerrr I'm shocked she didn't get an adjustment in the OTA before being in this weeks spotlight.

[@BryanRoach]

Supergiant is amazing for disrupting what your opponent is trying to do, there's a ton of decks that crumble if you interrupt their T4 or T5 play.

[@D4REPlays]

@antoniostewart2584 Yeah she will!

[@SlaycGurlitsgoingdownnn]

I think Frigga can be useful in the bounce agent venom deck where you can copy Silver Sable, Nico, rocket raccoon, Demon, and even toxin.

[@D4REPlays]

@SlaycGurlitsgoingdownnn that could be really good! especially with black swan to make it free.

[@meeee32156]

Subbed! Just started back up after a year break. I think I’m CL 6k I think, but good god I am so far behind I have no idea how I’m ever gonna make an actual meta deck. I made a toxic sera surfer deck and a dark hawk agent venom deck that got me to rank 80 this week I’ve been playing. Got a basic Deadpool destroy deck without Nico or x23. This is roooough. But your channel seems great! Guess I gotta be patient and eventually I’ll be able to put something together :/

[@BryanRoach]

@@meeee32156 You'll never catch up thanks to the changes they made to card acquisition unless you spend a ton of money. The key to those in this situation, which I'm on too since I quit for like 6 months, is to focus on strengthening a few archetypes you like that will stay relevant and pick up as many general purpose cards as you can along the way. Even if you were to whale I still wouldn't recommend chasing the meta since due to how often it shifts you wouldn't perform as well due to lacking familiarity with what you're playing. This is the reason you see so many cards that fit into the more complex archetypes have mediocre or bad win and cube rates when they release and then be quickly given up on by most of the playerbase, Madame Web is one of the best examples of this (I've had over an 80% winrate with her since her release but tons of people claim she's not good due to not having enough experience with the nuances of moving cards). You've already got a few good archetypes to build on that fit the mold of always being relevant. There's a ton of variations of Surfer decks so you can always have a few builds around him that will serve you well, Darkhawk has and most likely always will be a solid card to build around and destroy has always been relevant though not having Noco or Laura is definitely not doing you any favours. Another great option is Sera Control, there's tons of variations of it you can build so it's always been relevant and performed reliably.

[@D4REPlays]

@meeee32156 Thank you! Yeah the returning player seems to be in the same boat as the new player, but you don't any kind of buffer before being tossed in the general pool of players. I picked a few consistent decks that I could put together based on the coming spotlight caches and use those for my infinite runs. Started with Destroy and then built out zoo and surfer. It takes some time but once you start putting those decks together it's so great. Welcome back to snap and thank you for watching!

[@seessa4379]

I enjoyed high voltage, really fun. The collectors vault is ok, but wouldn’t spend my gold on them .

[@3tmaan507]

you look like a character from stranger things and the music too lol

[@D4REPlays]

@3tmaan507 I will actually gladly take that comparison, haha!

[@oblivion9999]

It's not too bad holding off on tokens if youre gonna play for a longer time. The way the game is set up, the more cards you have the less you get, (your odds of getting a variant in a spotlight or a dupe in the random spotlight increase), tokens are the only way to bypass the nonsense. So in theory the most cards you have the more valuable they are. But I imagine being a content creator makes it a bit tougher, cause you want to be able to show off most decks asap.

[@D4REPlays]

@oblivion9999 Yeah, I feel making content clouds my judgement a little bit when chasing cards. I try not to get cards based on the sake of content but I can't say it doesn't happen. I think having that bank of tokens would be nice in case I need to grab a card for that reason.

Own Copycat but dont have Red Guardian so I'll likely be pulling on that week. Though man I really want Fenris too. Don't have Werewolf either (I still don't really care if I get it or not) but I'm willing to wait to get enough tokens for Fenris (at 3k rn). But Frigga. I've always been in the boat that one of the strongest effects in this game is being able to use a card twice. Grandmaster, Wong, Iron Lad, Copycat (sort of) etc. With Frigga? Shes straight up giving you another copy. It's a targeted Iron Land or Mystique that works with any card but played next turn. It can synergize with QuinJet as well as Mockingbird. Works with Collector. I could even see it used in Destroy to put a large powered Venom or 2nd Carnage in your hand or even a high powered Deadpool. And of course bounce decks with plenty of targets. Yeah I just convinced myself. Next week is a 4 key week lol.

[@D4REPlays]

@ROFLWAFFLELAWL4 Frigga is definitely going to see play. I enjoyed being with you on this journey to convincing yourself, haha.

[@ROFLWAFFLELAWL4]

@@D4REPlays lol. You're definitely right in that assessment that shes somewhat slow though. I could see possibly replacing or being a back up to Absorbing man for Surfer decks. She'll allow using 2 Shaws, Sages, Broods, etc. Though she's definitely going to feel better when we get a good 2 cost power ramp card.

[@MrStatistx]

I did enjoy High Voltage (also killer mode to deal with daily goals), but also no real incentive to play after the rewards. I was contemplating it and thought that maybe they could do it like after you got the last reward, you get 1 cube for winning, no snap, no additional mechanic to double or quadruple it, just a simple cube since the matches are fast too, or just do goals that give you the usual credits and whatnot, maybe smaller amounts though.
