Great video guys. My thoughts on aero/leech are they need a rework. I played hundreds of games in infinite this week and 99% of games I see an aero or leech come out they are way overused in high rank. I really prefer a match where 2 players dish out theyr best combo in the 50-100 power range and see who wins rather then who plays aero or leech and retreats the other retreat first. Leader got nerfed because people felt cheated by opponent who did a 0 IQ play and won. Leech feels the same. Aero is not as annoying as leech in that regard. When spend time and time figuring the most convoluted strategy and 5 card in hand ready to burst out a crazy smart play and boom 1 card ruins your whole deck feels terrible. Cosmo had to be there for Wong who would go nuts I understand that. But leech is sole purpose is making people retreat is so frustrating. He forces retreat on 90% of decks red skull destroyer infinaut being the exception but if u don't run these 3 card it's insta retreat it's so annoying.
You get 4500 credits a week just from the weekly missions and weekly boxes. By the time you get to 1700 you'll guaranteed have half of the pool 3 cards. Personally get on average 2-3 collector caches per day, and a new card every 1.5 days. I'm at collection level 2100 with 53 of the 84 pool 3 cards, and I started playing on January 1st 🚩Educated Collins is not pool 3 complete! The people complaining about not having every card with every combo and claiming every archetype is overpowered do not represent a good opinion of how the game should be going forward. I really hope you see this comment
Also, a lot is said about Super Skrull, and he's one of my 3 pool 4 cards. Super Skrull works because you are matched up with players using similar decks to yours pretty often. If you're running an Ongoing/Destroyer/Spectrum/Ultron deck or what have you, throw in Super skrull and you'd be surprised how often you get Klaw, Iron Man, Blue Marvel, Patriot, etc etc etc added to your board. It's also an incredible cube winner against people playing Hazmat and Luke cage because they never see that coming
I guess I’m too casual, or too casual of a player. I play every day, complete my missions and buy the season pass, never reach infinite, I only go for my rank 60 variant and I’m done. Anyway, I find that I don’t resonate with the community on this one. Of course I want thanos, it’d be sweet and all- but I know myself well enough that if they gave me everything I wanted, I’d walk away from the game. I’m only 1700 on the track, so I’m missing plenty of key cards, but I still get plenty of enjoyment out of the game. The other day I pulled shuri! I was so excited, but that wouldn’t happen if they give me the ability to buy or rent the best cards in the game. Looking for venom and wave in the shop so I can fill out a destroy deck or an alternate card for my electro-ramp gives me something to strive for. Anyway, I can see how this represents a problem to some, but I worry that if done wrong, it’ll lose the magic of the rarest cards feeling rare.
Yeah I can't understand this, its not like they get these cards from Second Dinner, that would be a thing that would be frustrating, these guys earn their cards, and I want to hear how they feel they work.
Also that everybody got all the cards, at least in my área I face against thanos with galactus with kang all in the same deck...and sometimes sometimes a shuri or a lockjaw.. but 99% is against the big bad ones. I use hazmat for fun. Cheers from México
@@bradleymancil7851Not really I got serious 3 complete at the end of January and all I purchased was the season pass, and still had 6k tokens to get Kang on release. Those guys put money into the game so it's even easier for them.
Love the game, I’ve embraced the grind as a new player but I don’t love the grind and the fatigue is real. Pushing my collection level feels necessary but feels equally punishing. I was excited to get over 1k collection level and so far I’ve mainly unlocked some of the less than stellar variants and 100 tokens… so now I can face tougher opponents with some flashy new avatars and catch phrases… yay!
My first pool 3 unlock was Mr Negative and since then has been my favorite archetype and always try to make it work. This are the good things that this system gives you.
How i built My favorite deck out of pool 3 for a while is i took a spectrum destroyer deck. But i didn't have destroyer. I played redskull, traded out a few things that made more sence with him, and bamn its a completely different deck. I feel this is in the spirit of the game. However card acquisition will get me to play more meta focused as i continue to play and get better cards. And if I'm not the only one, things will continue in its own power creep way. Different game modes might really help.
@@Atariese Definitely card acquisition is a problem. Specifically for new cards that I prefer them to be band instead of good one I will never play. But having unique decks is more important in this game than any other card game I play. Surprise cards that nobody expects on certain deck is what gives you the cubes.
I remember when I started playing league of legends and I only had a few champions. I was so excited to play every week with the new rotation of champions and try everything, and then if I loved a certain champion I used to save RP and buy It. Why don't they put a weekly or daily or whatever rotation of cards? Like look, shadowking is free today, lets try what can I do with him and surprise people
A huge issue is that these new powerhouse cards (like Kang) cost 6000 tokens which is extremely difficult to acquire for free-to-play or low spenders. This is mostly problematic now that there are token bundles, allowing whales to buy powerful cards that majority of players won't have access to. Unfortunately, when losing to these new overpowered cards it won't feel exciting but rather unfair as the player won't feel on an even playing field with the whale. This was less problematic in the earlier phases, but as more pool 4 and 5 cards are released the game becomes more pay-to-win over time. I agree on many of the points made in this video, and I'm confident they're aware of the issue. I do genuinely hope they're able to find and execute a solution (that makes players happy and doesn't damage their profits).
I really don't understand people getting angry over videos of new cards. I really enjoy it: I'm able to see cards, how they work, and if it's something I want to save up for or not. There's so many good decks that don't need the new cards, I think it's just silly for people to be mad about interesting content, just because they themselves can't get it immediately.
I'm at CL 4,211 and haven't unlocked a new card in 529 levels - the last card I unlocked was Maria Hill, and I'll absolutely never use it. I can live with not having the latest and greatest pool 5 cards right off the bat, but it is absolutely ridiculous that I've progressed through that many levels and am still missing most of the pool 4 cards from my collection. When you throw in stuff like "token Tuesday" into the mix, the whole thing starts feeling pretty scummy when my choices are either a) try and grind through the slow drip of token unlocks to save up or b) open up my wallet.
What do you think about borrowing from MOBA's where a champion/god is free for everyone and it changes each week? You could have two Series 5 cards, two series 4 cards, and two series 3 cards available for everyone to use and try out and each week it would change allowing players to play with cards they don't have, especially the Series 4 and 5 cards. One of the weekly Series 5 cards each week could even be the newly released one so people can try it out and see if they like it.
I think they should implement a draft system similar to Magic The Gathering. They should have a draft event that resets every expansion, which allows players to pay gold or tokens to enter. Once they enter they will be given a random series 4 or 5 card, then they will have a pool of cards randomly assigned to their draft collection, which can include cards that they do not own. This collection is used to make the rest of their deck for the event. For clarification, they only keep the series 4 or 5 card they got, they do not keep any of the other cards that are assigned to their draft collection. This game mode would allow players to get the cards they want in a controlled manner that would allow players to feel like they are progressing, and they get to play with other cards they may not own yet.
I just got to pool 3 and it has been an experience. On one hand I got baron mordo and drax as my first pool 3 cards, and on the other, I already have electro, sera and wave. Can't wait to get a pool 4 or 5 card and for it to be horrible.
The only way I want to receive a avatar or title is via logging on for the day and claiming it via the shop free daily getting them in the collection level rewards is just scandalous
Slow acquisition is my problem with the game right now. I’m only Clvl 1600 or so and I’ve been unlocking cards every 50-70 ranks for the past 500 levels. It’s made the game such a grind not having all the cards so many people do at my level.
It’s would be nice to be able to prioritize certain cards that you don’t have so that they take priority on your next T3, T4, T5 card pull. Or at least group cards into what you want right away and what you’re willing to wait on.
I see so many takes on Thanos/Lockjaw and no one really says what I feel is the biggest (not the only one though) reason why it's broken. It's the Space Stone. Lockjaw is not only high roll but it limits you to a single lane for the most part (sans Doom, odd Cloak play etc). Space stone allows you to continually move cards to other lanes after bringing in high power spikes. Once that is gone you'll see the power level go down dramatically in my opinion.
Card acquisition sucks if you haven't played since day one. I've played since day one and I'm missing around 38 cards. But, that's me being f2p, using my gold on tokens in the shop, mission refreshes, and wasting my resources on anything else like those fast upgrades. I get a new card at around 2-3 a week.
I consider myself a F2P to low tier spender: I buy the season pass and before February, I only bought the Starter bundle, I ended up buying the Deadpool bundle, the first Token Tuesday and the Mystery Variant bundle, I had the gold saved up for the most part, but I spent like $5 to top off. I think if they keep offering lower end bundles with decent value, I'd be happy to spend like $25 a month on the game.
I wish the rewards for daily and the ladder ect should be more rewarding. Boosted. The every boosters from the collection should be every other with tokens for the other spots. So Tokens, Boosters, credits, and then collection creates
I think my biggest problem is with the lack of real progress I can make for my collection playing the game outside the daily missions. Like if I level up the monthly xp ladder, the beat I can do is 50 credits. It makes grinding when you don't even have a full pool 3 even less appealing cause why am I going to play games with my scraped together deck vs. Players who can put together full combos if playing those games won't progress me really any faster after completing the missions.
Im climbing a lot (omega) with a dino-mistique deck just cos i have fun with it, i think everyone has their playstyle. The important thing is to have fun above all.
i'm 5 cards away from series 3 complete. from here on out i'm just saving my tokens for one of the series 5 baddies. but yes i think not having an unranked mode and changing how new cards are put into the game are the two biggest needs for this awesome game.
I dont see why people get mad at you guys im subscribed to both you guys get tips from you and believe me if those people that hate on you had tje money to spend ok the game the would but you guys are right this is really unbalanced
I thing one of the biggest problems was the uneven starting position at global launch. I don't have a problem with playing 5 months to have a full collection. But most of the content creators had a head start of three to five month. That created an imbalance in our feelings of the game. We "new" players were always behind. With no chance to catch up in time.
They should change the system, and fix the improvements which are inflated... I've more than what I need... the Credits are important and are the currency of the game... The Golds should be tied to the collection system and allowed to spend money to advance the collection. If they allow you to choose the collection or the cards in order to build your deck, it is good for the game because you can build the deck you want a slowly make others, but at least you play... Also, the token prize should be based on time... The more time goes by more the card will be discounted... and not random when they choose based on stats.
I understand people’s frustration with not having certain cards but that’s just how things are at times. Everyone can’t have everything. If they did then nothing is exclusive
New cards should just be put in the season chaches for like 10% chance. We’ll be able to actually have a chance of getting them and then the developers also will get more money as people pay for the extra tiers battle pass to get to season chaches quicker
Due to tokens being better once you're out of Series 3, but they keep adding cards in Series 3, makes it harder for us to complete series 3 and get more tokens. Chasing to complete and the goal line keep getting push back is very frustrating. and It's ridiculous to face 80% Thanos Decks every game Retreat, retreat, retreat, retreat doesn't helps.
I like the idea of the test token but at the age of 49 y.o. I really don't care about pixel or baby variants of cards, so I'd love to get rid of these, even with the price of 100 collector's tokens. This gives me some value of the misfortune I experienced while I was expanding my collection, and all of these right now are clutter and eye sore for me, and don't want to deal with them. Right now there is no excitement about the new card release cause I feel only content creators can afford to pay 6000 tokens for a card cause I'm collecting tokens for Colleen wing, Dr. Doom, and Hazmat. I don't even think that I'll ever have Galactus and Thanos, so good luck getting these new cards. I'll be busy collecting avatars and titles and after I get 99% of them I might get one new card from the 18% that I'm actually missing because certainly, I don't need 5 Mantis or Drax cards.
I couldn’t dislike the card acquisition design of snap more than any other game ever. I like the game, but I can’t make any of the top decks. And there’s no hope of doing so soon.
They could add a practice mode where you can use any cards to create a deck and vs a bot. You can get card boosters but no ranks. This would let casuals try new decks and play without worry.
I don't mind dishing out some money to a f2p game that is actually fun and worth the money, how else are they sopose to make money and keep the game great and smooth with updates, once in a while they should add new cards to series 3 pool, more people would spend money to try and get it.
COMPLETELY AGREE with the visual upgrades, collectors cache should always be something card related. Random card upgrade, variant, new card, limited edition frame, effect when you play the card. Something that makes you want to use the cards you already have. I play for collection and upgrades, which feels rough when the collectors cache aren't really that rewarding.
Yeah getting an avatar and 2 title 100 token in 4 cache In a row u worked for a week saved your cache for a small unlock party and all u get is junk is so frustrating.
@@XXSittinsidewaysxX they have tons of facilitators reading comments on RUclips on high vues about the game they will change the stuff people ask for the most but only in a way they believe they will make more bang for buck. That's what drive most game/companies we can only hope it's a win/win situation like they started testing cheaper bundles to see if they do make more money with cheaper bundle they with expensive one they will keep going down that path. Game will be in a floating stage of back in forth for 6-18 month of testing the price range for stuff/rate of acquiring new cards.
I like the Test Drive idea so people can try cards. How about they take a page out of League of Legends and do weekly rotating cards you can try out? They keep cycling and you eventually get to try out all the cards.
I used to play League Of Legends and one of the things I liked at the time was there rotation of Champions to play..I would ONLY hope that Ben Brode sees and hears this idea for the sake of the game itself..
I dont think the problem isnslow acquisition. The problem isnyouve no choice in the cards you get. If you're pulling cards with no synergy. I recently got darkhawk and have gone from winning maybe 50% of games to climbing 20 ranks in 3 days. Before that I would be matching up against "meta " decks when i was missing 2 or 3 core cards in basically every deck.
Regarding the terrible pixel variants, I almost opened up a full pixel movement deck. I'm close enough to buy the last few variants if they appear in the shop just for the memes.
The thing that beta players don't get is how slow the token acquisition is for players still in pool 3. I'm almost pool 3 complete and been playing every day since global release and naturally acquired 3500 tokens on the collection track total (excluding the gift and bundles) since the token system was rolled out. So it's really not realistic to save for 6k big bads. Even 3k monsters like shuri you can't really save for because by the time you save up they are dropped or nerfed.
What needs to happen is to have anything that is not card related, so avatars and titles, to be its own item on the track, and for those items to be removed from the caches. Getting those two things is just as bad as getting boosters off of the caches. SD is literally scamming the players.
Can we also talk about the Season Pass Caches past 50? I feel like its ALL boosters. Between that and the Collectors' Cache there are too many boosters.
Wow, I didn't realize the devs play as a consumer. That actually gives a me a ton of respect for them. Would love to care about the new cards, and I love a lot of the suggestions you guys brough up. I hope the Devs take a look at this!
The problem is that supposedly Marvel Snap is making $10 million a month in comparison to the $1.8 million Hearthstones monthly revenue. Let's be realistic here, Second Dinner wants to make and enjoys making tons of money. The card acquisition is shit, they know it, and they have known it since December (when Ben Brode announced they would be fixing it in one of those update videos). They are taking their sweet ass time because they want to push the player base to their limits on how much they can get away with. If they wanted to fix it right away they would have add daily/weekly token missions to those that already exist in the game. They also would have only made Series 5 for the big bads, as you mentioned in the video. Easy and quick fixes that haven't been implemented by Second Dinner.
I am F2P and make sure to hit all of my dailies, weeklies, etc. I believe I have been playing for ~45 days and passed collection level 1000 today. I don't have enough of pool 3 to make lots of the decks (and can't get much above rank 70, so no free 500 gold for me atm), but am saving my tokens for Thanos (made bad decisions with some tokens and gold prior to watching both of your channels). The grind is not easy, but these games are always a long haul, you just have to have the patience for them.
@@sheldor8909 yeah you do, and then even then, you have to pull those exact cards in an exact order, or you lose every game you don’t. Not worth the tokens at all.
The solution to leech and Aero are turns 1-4. So many decks want to only play 5&6, and those counters (like leader) are very strong counters to people who aren't playing tempo. (Leech's other issue is lockjaw and thanos. Being able to cheat him out early is something Cozy minimized, but is a giant issue too. Leech on curve is fine)
About the Collection level i absolutely agree, I'm 4k CL and I have so little variants! So many cards I could be playing only if I had a decent variant for them.. This is something they should do, increase the % of variant drop and lower the titles and avatars, because there's so many variants coming out each month it's crazy how much we're missing out!
@@oddjr Same here, I don't care about having 6 Mantis cards. There should be either option to pick variant or basic cards in the menu. Once I have 95% of the cards and could afford to collect tokens to buy the remaining 15 cards, I wouldn't mind about variants. About avatars and titles, we all use them because we have them, but given the option, I'm pretty sure most of the players will play like me with no title and "special" avatar.
@@XXSittinsidewaysxX these are fillers to entice players to spend money to speed up progression to get more cards and chances for variants. This is sadly how 2nd dinner's business model works.
Getting a title or an avatar feels horrid, anything other than cards feels like a waste, even 100 tokens means we are spending 6000 Credits to buy a single Pool 3 card in the token shop...
Just a quick feedback: the fact that most people don't have access to cards, for me at least it feels like I don't even want to watch content with Pool 5 decks, why bother?
These podcasts are my favorite Snap content! Y'all are spot on about the card acquisition. 2 months in, I'm ~1200 collection level, and seeing new cards feels like I'm just a class below and unable to participate. I get needing to level up and complete pool 3, but 1 new pool 3 per month, 2 pool 4 cards, and 1 pool 5 with a big bad every 3-4 months is a easy ti implement step in the right direction. It doesn't solve the issue, but it reduces the barrier for entry for the game from 6 to a couple of months.
Awesome advice for the F2P players! I've been on some forums and chatting with some people trying to figure out how run the collection track gauntlet. Currently on 1k collection score just need she-hulk for that awesome baero deck. Thanks for making our Fridays awesome as always!
I have been playing for 2 months. I am by no means F2P. I have 18 cards left in series 3. And only 3 non season pass pool 4/5 cards. Yes it is too slow. Considering I play against people with 4-5 series 4/5 cards at times. Just let me play against those around my CL level. 😊
Do they know how this game works? As FTP player I PREFER current system with demotions of cards pool 5->4 4->3 etc and a chance getting good cards (e.g. Shuri was my last demoted card I got, Shehulk before that) over introducing new crappy cards in pool 3 with no chance of eventually getting good pool 4 and 5 cards. 4:00 Player who spends big money and tokens are upset about FTP players who gets these good cards later for free? 10:35 After complete pool 3 I will be looking towards demoted cards. I see no problem there. 12:40 How many cards they demoted to pool 3 in last month? 3 in feb and 4 in jan. IT IS A CARD A WEEK. What he is talking about? 25:00 no I will not spend those 10$. What a horrible suggestion for FTP newbie. I have 10k gold and 7k tokens, but at least I see some value in them. I have not spent them at all. But I have 1k boosters for my Sentinel. What to do with them? And "variants" after Infinity split is always dissapointment. And no, I will not spend money to boost progression. Goal is to get earlier in "boring" post pool 3 phase? And spend money for it? I still have 2-3 month of healthy ~10 card unlocks per month.
Hello guys, hope you are all well. My daughter had a suggestion or question, if it has been asked. I apologize. "Hello, maybe this can be a subject to discuss, and I many not explain this right, but why don't the card set have their own themes, why they do not work well together, like all the Pyms, Fantastic Four, Masters of Evil, Thunderbolts. They sold Daredevil and Elektra and they don't work together at all. Why they work better individually mixed decks and don't have a central theme together. I think it would give some value if certain pair worked better together, like Magneto, Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch, or the Avengers, where they get a bonus ability or theme ability?" Thank you gentlemen.
People should be more comfortable allowing the collection adventure guide their decks and playstyles. I got Mr. Negative as one of my first cards, and I strictly used that until I had a broader collection, and it was fantastic anyways. KM Best and others have also made videos saying there are NO EXCUSES for being bad at the game when they can use your pool 1 or pool 2 cards to play at the highest levels
I'm at around 1770:ish CL F2P. Unlocks feel so bad honestly. Have only gotten one non series 3 card so far, Attuma. And I recently opened 6 reserves in a row without a card. Yes I know it evens out, 2 cards in 8 opened but sucked when you go that far in between. Also have had the worst luck. My last card was Psylocke which was good. However before that I opened Rockslide ( sucks without Darkhawk), Baron Mordo ( no comment needed), Hela ( I hate playing discard) and Deadpool ( having already bought the Deadpool bundle so had the variant). Also why have sooo many titles in the game? I have 3 infinite titles from the 3 seasons I have played the game. Personally I want to use those since they actually came with some form of accomplishment I did in the game. I have zero appeal using a random title I got out of a reserve. Avatars I have one I have grown to like and "identify as myself" in the game. Basically any other avatar I get will be useless. And finally... pixel variants. Getting those just feel bad because you know it could have been a non pixel one and you got the damn pixel version. If they need to have low effort pixel variants make it so we get them as a bonus when we receive a normal variant. So for example when you get a variant there is a 10% chance you will receive a pixel variant on top of the one you got. The majority of the playerbase doesn't like the pixel variant so for the love of god stop flooding us with them. If they only are a bonus you will feel good getting them since it's at least a 25 credit CL upgrade and you didn't get cheated out on a normal variant.
YES it takes far too long to gain cards, 2nd it takes far too many games to actually be able to play your deck. Too many times you either don't get the cards that you need to play while your opponent gets optimum pulls and worse too many zones are negative and lazy effects so you can only play two maybe one zone. A game that was fun a few months ago is slowly strangling the enjoyment I've noticed myself less and less. Instead of giving all these variant cards GIVE ACTUALLY NEW CARDS, gain variants when you split the card. Oh yay new cards that all my opponents will have that I will never get to see in my deck, can't wait.
Also an Issue. I also got Ghost and Stature, yet I dont know what to do with them and bc noone does content on them, I feel like I had a bad draw. Than when they'll drop they might be the best card in the world. I just didn't knew how to play with them so I feel bad once more. Happened with She-Hulk. When I first got her, I was like... 10 power... that's weak. Rather play Leader on 6 and be fine. Now she's an S Tier card.
I'd really like to see card acquisition modified a bit. Keep the token shop and keep the same costs, slightly increase token gains, make cards "craftable" for like 20%(or whatever) more than the token shop. Keep new releases to token shop and caches etc. That way The grind doesn't feel like such a casino. Maybe even Keep pool 5 to token shop only etc. Just a thought
I have Thanos pinned. Im halfway through pool 3 unlocks and he popped as my offer. The card unlocks just need to be a tad more frequent. Im sick of spending 1000 credits to get to the next reserve to get 100 gold or 200 credits instead of a card I dont have.
I disagree that cards like Leech are fine. Leech and Scorpion need to be nerfed to where they only effect the 2 left cards in the opponents hand or something like that. There’s no reason your opponent should be able to drop a card that effects every card in your hand. Up to 7 cards. That’s too powerful. It’s different with cards like Sauron or MODOK because they are effecting your own cards. But effecting 7 cards of an opponent is too strong.
In regards to the meta right now I think it's the worst it's ever been (minus maybe leader). I made it to the 90s this season after finally giving in and getting shuri and feel awful for it. I'm not interested in getting infinite bc I don't want to play shuri decks anymore but anytime I play any other decks (mainly been trying negative and destroyer knull) my rank gets knocked back below 90 after losing to the same couple cards over and over again
If there was just a token shop that wasnt random, and you could just select any card it would alleviate a lot of this. However, that goes against their design philosophy, because they want people playing different decks. Even though that isnt what happens
I understand all the frustration about not having the cards but as content creators of course you're going to put out content about a new card. Fans are being quite unreasonable because it's not as if all your content is being made about that card. I do understand everyone's frustration but it doesn't make sense to expect you to not do videos about a new card when it comes out. Fans need to keep in mind one very important rule of card games.... STFU
The rental option is great, actually. I got lucky and got Galactus at CL1498, so the infinite climb was much easier for me as f2p (except for battle passes.) But given how RNG heavy this game is, not everyone will be lucky in their pulls, which can cause a ton of burnout because they may not he having fun.
The slow drip is my favorite part of the game. If everybody can get everything right away, games end up with a stagnant meta with everybody only playing the top cards. Forced creativity is literally why I'm here.
Sure and this conveniently helps them getting money from Whales... And all the people with strong rare cards get free cubes while all the others don't make the meta stagnant because they're forced to play with garbage decks. If you think most people will play this game for long at this current state you're dead wrong.
If you’re poor and can’t afford it. Play free to play cause you’re a free loader. If you pay then you should get premium stuff. This is the most free to play card game out there lol :) Can’t believe people like Mario Exists in this world… go inside a restaurant and expect steak dinner for free 😂 I agree that card acquisition is slow and they should improve the cache but F2P people shouldn’t complain :)
@Timothy Yap bro shut up, Runeterra card acquisition is much better. I'm tired of card games that dont want to give you cards unless you spend hundreds of dollars. Most of the players base is mad because it's borderline pay to win. Yeah people that paid have played with zabu and surfer when they were op. As soon as everyone can play them they're suddenly a problem and get nerfed. Yeah bro I'm not stupid, I even paid premium to get Zabu but I see what they're doing, and it's clear this game cannot be taken seriously.
So while I agree generally with what Cozy said about cards not making the biggest difference, I got Knull right when he dropped to 3k (he was pinned in my shop) then pulled Galactus in the same day from a Reserve, and went from having topped out around level 60 in previous seasons to around 90 this season (maybe I'll hit infinite before it ends?), so certainly SOME cards can make that big of a difference.
Yes, it is. I don't know what threshold I passed, but I was at 87 2 days ago and now 75% plus matches I am in have Thanos, Knull, Galactus and a bunch of other Series 5 expensive token cards that just smoke me. I'm back down to 57, and I feel like I am only able to beat bots these days. CL 2943. Card acquisition is terrible.
The slow drip is my favorite part of the game. If everybody can get everything right away, games end up with a stagnant meta with everybody only playing the top cards. Forced creativity is literally why I'm here.
Just commenting to say that I'm glad to see your channel is doing well with the Marvel Snap coverage. You had a few great DOTA2 videos that taught me a lot a few years ago, straight to the point and very useful, but obviously DOTA is a very saturated market. Glad to see snap is working well for you!
Thank you so much! I truly appreciate it! I do miss Dota sometimes, but ultimately, I'm having a blast with Marvel Snap. Its literally the polar opposite to Dota LOL. Thank you for your kind words and for taking the time to leave such a nice comment
A little off topics, I would love to see a QOL change that would allow players to tap on a card then tap so that we could see all the variants for that character. And we could buy the variants we want.
@@lstealth would they? I don't care if I had friends join the game and get the cards a lot faster than I did. Doesn't mean they'd beat me in game. Nerfing pay walled cards after they reach FTP is a bigger issue.

Great video guys. My thoughts on aero/leech are they need a rework. I played hundreds of games in infinite this week and 99% of games I see an aero or leech come out they are way overused in high rank. I really prefer a match where 2 players dish out theyr best combo in the 50-100 power range and see who wins rather then who plays aero or leech and retreats the other retreat first. Leader got nerfed because people felt cheated by opponent who did a 0 IQ play and won. Leech feels the same. Aero is not as annoying as leech in that regard. When spend time and time figuring the most convoluted strategy and 5 card in hand ready to burst out a crazy smart play and boom 1 card ruins your whole deck feels terrible. Cosmo had to be there for Wong who would go nuts I understand that. But leech is sole purpose is making people retreat is so frustrating. He forces retreat on 90% of decks red skull destroyer infinaut being the exception but if u don't run these 3 card it's insta retreat it's so annoying.
You get 4500 credits a week just from the weekly missions and weekly boxes. By the time you get to 1700 you'll guaranteed have half of the pool 3 cards. Personally get on average 2-3 collector caches per day, and a new card every 1.5 days. I'm at collection level 2100 with 53 of the 84 pool 3 cards, and I started playing on January 1st
🚩Educated Collins is not pool 3 complete!
The people complaining about not having every card with every combo and claiming every archetype is overpowered do not represent a good opinion of how the game should be going forward.
I really hope you see this comment
Also, a lot is said about Super Skrull, and he's one of my 3 pool 4 cards. Super Skrull works because you are matched up with players using similar decks to yours pretty often. If you're running an Ongoing/Destroyer/Spectrum/Ultron deck or what have you, throw in Super skrull and you'd be surprised how often you get Klaw, Iron Man, Blue Marvel, Patriot, etc etc etc added to your board. It's also an incredible cube winner against people playing Hazmat and Luke cage because they never see that coming
I guess I’m too casual, or too casual of a player. I play every day, complete my missions and buy the season pass, never reach infinite, I only go for my rank 60 variant and I’m done. Anyway, I find that I don’t resonate with the community on this one.
Of course I want thanos, it’d be sweet and all- but I know myself well enough that if they gave me everything I wanted, I’d walk away from the game. I’m only 1700 on the track, so I’m missing plenty of key cards, but I still get plenty of enjoyment out of the game. The other day I pulled shuri! I was so excited, but that wouldn’t happen if they give me the ability to buy or rent the best cards in the game. Looking for venom and wave in the shop so I can fill out a destroy deck or an alternate card for my electro-ramp gives me something to strive for.
Anyway, I can see how this represents a problem to some, but I worry that if done wrong, it’ll lose the magic of the rarest cards feeling rare.
I understand the player frustration, but misdirected anger at you guys for showing and playing new cards is BS. good episode!
Yeah I can't understand this, its not like they get these cards from Second Dinner, that would be a thing that would be frustrating, these guys earn their cards, and I want to hear how they feel they work.
People just love scapegoating
Also that everybody got all the cards, at least in my área I face against thanos with galactus with kang all in the same deck...and sometimes sometimes a shuri or a lockjaw.. but 99% is against the big bad ones. I use hazmat for fun. Cheers from México
@@chrisvasko16 idk it did seem a little sus that ALL the big streamers got Kang immediately...
@@bradleymancil7851Not really I got serious 3 complete at the end of January and all I purchased was the season pass, and still had 6k tokens to get Kang on release. Those guys put money into the game so it's even easier for them.
Love the game, I’ve embraced the grind as a new player but I don’t love the grind and the fatigue is real. Pushing my collection level feels necessary but feels equally punishing. I was excited to get over 1k collection level and so far I’ve mainly unlocked some of the less than stellar variants and 100 tokens… so now I can face tougher opponents with some flashy new avatars and catch phrases… yay!
My first pool 3 unlock was Mr Negative and since then has been my favorite archetype and always try to make it work. This are the good things that this system gives you.
How i built My favorite deck out of pool 3 for a while is i took a spectrum destroyer deck. But i didn't have destroyer. I played redskull, traded out a few things that made more sence with him, and bamn its a completely different deck.
I feel this is in the spirit of the game. However card acquisition will get me to play more meta focused as i continue to play and get better cards. And if I'm not the only one, things will continue in its own power creep way.
Different game modes might really help.
@@Atariese Definitely card acquisition is a problem. Specifically for new cards that I prefer them to be band instead of good one I will never play. But having unique decks is more important in this game than any other card game I play. Surprise cards that nobody expects on certain deck is what gives you the cubes.
Don't usually come to the Alex side of the snap chat but glad I did today. Very good discussion on the progression track.
I remember when I started playing league of legends and I only had a few champions. I was so excited to play every week with the new rotation of champions and try everything, and then if I loved a certain champion I used to save RP and buy It.
Why don't they put a weekly or daily or whatever rotation of cards? Like look, shadowking is free today, lets try what can I do with him and surprise people
A huge issue is that these new powerhouse cards (like Kang) cost 6000 tokens which is extremely difficult to acquire for free-to-play or low spenders.
This is mostly problematic now that there are token bundles, allowing whales to buy powerful cards that majority of players won't have access to.
Unfortunately, when losing to these new overpowered cards it won't feel exciting but rather unfair as the player won't feel on an even playing field with the whale.
This was less problematic in the earlier phases, but as more pool 4 and 5 cards are released the game becomes more pay-to-win over time.
I agree on many of the points made in this video, and I'm confident they're aware of the issue.
I do genuinely hope they're able to find and execute a solution (that makes players happy and doesn't damage their profits).
Only money I've spent is to get the Captain America icon and I'm having fun.
I really don't understand people getting angry over videos of new cards. I really enjoy it: I'm able to see cards, how they work, and if it's something I want to save up for or not. There's so many good decks that don't need the new cards, I think it's just silly for people to be mad about interesting content, just because they themselves can't get it immediately.
I'm at CL 4,211 and haven't unlocked a new card in 529 levels - the last card I unlocked was Maria Hill, and I'll absolutely never use it. I can live with not having the latest and greatest pool 5 cards right off the bat, but it is absolutely ridiculous that I've progressed through that many levels and am still missing most of the pool 4 cards from my collection. When you throw in stuff like "token Tuesday" into the mix, the whole thing starts feeling pretty scummy when my choices are either a) try and grind through the slow drip of token unlocks to save up or b) open up my wallet.
What do you think about borrowing from MOBA's where a champion/god is free for everyone and it changes each week? You could have two Series 5 cards, two series 4 cards, and two series 3 cards available for everyone to use and try out and each week it would change allowing players to play with cards they don't have, especially the Series 4 and 5 cards. One of the weekly Series 5 cards each week could even be the newly released one so people can try it out and see if they like it.
I think they should implement a draft system similar to Magic The Gathering. They should have a draft event that resets every expansion, which allows players to pay gold or tokens to enter. Once they enter they will be given a random series 4 or 5 card, then they will have a pool of cards randomly assigned to their draft collection, which can include cards that they do not own. This collection is used to make the rest of their deck for the event. For clarification, they only keep the series 4 or 5 card they got, they do not keep any of the other cards that are assigned to their draft collection. This game mode would allow players to get the cards they want in a controlled manner that would allow players to feel like they are progressing, and they get to play with other cards they may not own yet.
I just got to pool 3 and it has been an experience. On one hand I got baron mordo and drax as my first pool 3 cards, and on the other, I already have electro, sera and wave. Can't wait to get a pool 4 or 5 card and for it to be horrible.
The only way I want to receive a avatar or title is via logging on for the day and claiming it via the shop free daily getting them in the collection level rewards is just scandalous
I got an Adam Warlock pixel variant from that bundle… I was PISSED lol 😅 never used Adam Warlock and never will
Not even with bast?
I agree with you guys. Renting cards, using them in batte mode, new cards going into pool 3. All of that. Those are great ideas.
Slow acquisition is my problem with the game right now. I’m only Clvl 1600 or so and I’ve been unlocking cards every 50-70 ranks for the past 500 levels. It’s made the game such a grind not having all the cards so many people do at my level.
It’s would be nice to be able to prioritize certain cards that you don’t have so that they take priority on your next T3, T4, T5 card pull. Or at least group cards into what you want right away and what you’re willing to wait on.
Being f2p is painful. These recent cheap token bundles have helped a bit.
I see so many takes on Thanos/Lockjaw and no one really says what I feel is the biggest (not the only one though) reason why it's broken. It's the Space Stone. Lockjaw is not only high roll but it limits you to a single lane for the most part (sans Doom, odd Cloak play etc). Space stone allows you to continually move cards to other lanes after bringing in high power spikes. Once that is gone you'll see the power level go down dramatically in my opinion.
Card acquisition sucks if you haven't played since day one. I've played since day one and I'm missing around 38 cards. But, that's me being f2p, using my gold on tokens in the shop, mission refreshes, and wasting my resources on anything else like those fast upgrades. I get a new card at around 2-3 a week.
I consider myself a F2P to low tier spender: I buy the season pass and before February, I only bought the Starter bundle, I ended up buying the Deadpool bundle, the first Token Tuesday and the Mystery Variant bundle, I had the gold saved up for the most part, but I spent like $5 to top off. I think if they keep offering lower end bundles with decent value, I'd be happy to spend like $25 a month on the game.
Best Snap video I’ve seen all year
I wish the rewards for daily and the ladder ect should be more rewarding. Boosted. The every boosters from the collection should be every other with tokens for the other spots. So Tokens, Boosters, credits, and then collection creates
I think my biggest problem is with the lack of real progress I can make for my collection playing the game outside the daily missions. Like if I level up the monthly xp ladder, the beat I can do is 50 credits. It makes grinding when you don't even have a full pool 3 even less appealing cause why am I going to play games with my scraped together deck vs. Players who can put together full combos if playing those games won't progress me really any faster after completing the missions.
Im climbing a lot (omega) with a dino-mistique deck just cos i have fun with it, i think everyone has their playstyle. The important thing is to have fun above all.
i'm 5 cards away from series 3 complete. from here on out i'm just saving my tokens for one of the series 5 baddies. but yes i think not having an unranked mode and changing how new cards are put into the game are the two biggest needs for this awesome game.
May i ask which collection lvl you are? :)
@@iridescent_92 currently at 3270
@@juliankuhn5990 wow :D thanks for the answer
I dont see why people get mad at you guys im subscribed to both you guys get tips from you and believe me if those people that hate on you had tje money to spend ok the game the would but you guys are right this is really unbalanced
I thing one of the biggest problems was the uneven starting position at global launch. I don't have a problem with playing 5 months to have a full collection.
But most of the content creators had a head start of three to five month. That created an imbalance in our feelings of the game. We "new" players were always behind. With no chance to catch up in time.
There should be a card you keep in hand that protects your deck from mill, Leach and other effects
They should change the system, and fix the improvements which are inflated... I've more than what I need... the Credits are important and are the currency of the game... The Golds should be tied to the collection system and allowed to spend money to advance the collection.
If they allow you to choose the collection or the cards in order to build your deck, it is good for the game because you can build the deck you want a slowly make others, but at least you play...
Also, the token prize should be based on time... The more time goes by more the card will be discounted... and not random when they choose based on stats.
I only have Madame Hydra and Falcon left for series 3 . FeelsGoodMan
I understand people’s frustration with not having certain cards but that’s just how things are at times. Everyone can’t have everything. If they did then nothing is exclusive
New cards should just be put in the season chaches for like 10% chance. We’ll be able to actually have a chance of getting them and then the developers also will get more money as people pay for the extra tiers battle pass to get to season chaches quicker
FYI I don't have She-Hulk but boy oh boy does that deck work
Due to tokens being better once you're out of Series 3, but they keep adding cards in Series 3, makes it harder for us to complete series 3 and get more tokens. Chasing to complete and the goal line keep getting push back is very frustrating. and It's ridiculous to face 80% Thanos Decks every game Retreat, retreat, retreat, retreat doesn't helps.
Was there actually someone who bought the more magic for the mystery variant and not the tokens? Confused about this conversation
That Dr.Doom's variant is fire!!!
love Hell Cow pixel variant tho
Imagine a game without leech and aero. A floodgate of decks would open up that would be so fun.
I’ve had Wong pinned on the shop for a few days now. Is he worth buying with tokens?
Good Video one of the better ones.
I like the idea of the test token but at the age of 49 y.o. I really don't care about pixel or baby variants of cards, so I'd love to get rid of these, even with the price of 100 collector's tokens. This gives me some value of the misfortune I experienced while I was expanding my collection, and all of these right now are clutter and eye sore for me, and don't want to deal with them.
Right now there is no excitement about the new card release cause I feel only content creators can afford to pay 6000 tokens for a card cause I'm collecting tokens for Colleen wing, Dr. Doom, and Hazmat. I don't even think that I'll ever have Galactus and Thanos, so good luck getting these new cards. I'll be busy collecting avatars and titles and after I get 99% of them I might get one new card from the 18% that I'm actually missing because certainly, I don't need 5 Mantis or Drax cards.
I couldn’t dislike the card acquisition design of snap more than any other game ever. I like the game, but I can’t make any of the top decks. And there’s no hope of doing so soon.
They could add a practice mode where you can use any cards to create a deck and vs a bot. You can get card boosters but no ranks. This would let casuals try new decks and play without worry.
I don't mind dishing out some money to a f2p game that is actually fun and worth the money, how else are they sopose to make money and keep the game great and smooth with updates, once in a while they should add new cards to series 3 pool, more people would spend money to try and get it.
Getting title in a collectors cache feels so bad
COMPLETELY AGREE with the visual upgrades, collectors cache should always be something card related. Random card upgrade, variant, new card, limited edition frame, effect when you play the card. Something that makes you want to use the cards you already have. I play for collection and upgrades, which feels rough when the collectors cache aren't really that rewarding.
Yeah getting an avatar and 2 title 100 token in 4 cache In a row u worked for a week saved your cache for a small unlock party and all u get is junk is so frustrating.
This is one of the best ideas I’ve heard, props to you bro
@@emmanuelpaquette3310 I feel ya man! It’s such a feel good mechanic and build up.. until you see the reward.
The REAL question is…Will Ben Brode even care to hear us out and make a change to the game..we can only hope he will
@@XXSittinsidewaysxX they have tons of facilitators reading comments on RUclips on high vues about the game they will change the stuff people ask for the most but only in a way they believe they will make more bang for buck. That's what drive most game/companies we can only hope it's a win/win situation like they started testing cheaper bundles to see if they do make more money with cheaper bundle they with expensive one they will keep going down that path. Game will be in a floating stage of back in forth for 6-18 month of testing the price range for stuff/rate of acquiring new cards.
I like the Test Drive idea so people can try cards. How about they take a page out of League of Legends and do weekly rotating cards you can try out? They keep cycling and you eventually get to try out all the cards.
I used to play League Of Legends and one of the things I liked at the time was there rotation of Champions to play..I would ONLY hope that Ben Brode sees and hears this idea for the sake of the game itself..
Wouldnt work because everyone would run the direct counter for those cards
@@chirag4122 theres a hot location every week already and everyone runs counters for those locations anyway. Doesnt seem to bother anyone
Any heat you guys get from viewers about a card is unwarranted. All you’re doing is showing us how it works. Keep up the good work
I dont think the problem isnslow acquisition. The problem isnyouve no choice in the cards you get. If you're pulling cards with no synergy. I recently got darkhawk and have gone from winning maybe 50% of games to climbing 20 ranks in 3 days.
Before that I would be matching up against "meta " decks when i was missing 2 or 3 core cards in basically every deck.
Regarding the terrible pixel variants, I almost opened up a full pixel movement deck. I'm close enough to buy the last few variants if they appear in the shop just for the memes.
Let's go
The thing that beta players don't get is how slow the token acquisition is for players still in pool 3. I'm almost pool 3 complete and been playing every day since global release and naturally acquired 3500 tokens on the collection track total (excluding the gift and bundles) since the token system was rolled out. So it's really not realistic to save for 6k big bads. Even 3k monsters like shuri you can't really save for because by the time you save up they are dropped or nerfed.
Yup 3k and I have 7 cards left. Every mission since launch
But you’re still getting new cards
@@paulakroy2635I'll trade the chance to unlock gambit, titania Ultron and rescue for the possibility of getting Thanos this month.
cozy’s chill nature is always a nice reminder to calm down about this game 😂
What needs to happen is to have anything that is not card related, so avatars and titles, to be its own item on the track, and for those items to be removed from the caches. Getting those two things is just as bad as getting boosters off of the caches. SD is literally scamming the players.
Can we also talk about the Season Pass Caches past 50? I feel like its ALL boosters. Between that and the Collectors' Cache there are too many boosters.
Wow, I didn't realize the devs play as a consumer. That actually gives a me a ton of respect for them. Would love to care about the new cards, and I love a lot of the suggestions you guys brough up. I hope the Devs take a look at this!
I don't believe that for a second
They play as a whale consumer.
The problem is that supposedly Marvel Snap is making $10 million a month in comparison to the $1.8 million Hearthstones monthly revenue. Let's be realistic here, Second Dinner wants to make and enjoys making tons of money. The card acquisition is shit, they know it, and they have known it since December (when Ben Brode announced they would be fixing it in one of those update videos). They are taking their sweet ass time because they want to push the player base to their limits on how much they can get away with. If they wanted to fix it right away they would have add daily/weekly token missions to those that already exist in the game. They also would have only made Series 5 for the big bads, as you mentioned in the video. Easy and quick fixes that haven't been implemented by Second Dinner.
I am F2P and make sure to hit all of my dailies, weeklies, etc. I believe I have been playing for ~45 days and passed collection level 1000 today. I don't have enough of pool 3 to make lots of the decks (and can't get much above rank 70, so no free 500 gold for me atm), but am saving my tokens for Thanos (made bad decisions with some tokens and gold prior to watching both of your channels). The grind is not easy, but these games are always a long haul, you just have to have the patience for them.
I feel you, im in the same boat. Keep up the grind 💪
Don’t buy galactus. RUclipsrs make him look fun and cool, what a dog shit situational card. Wasted 6000 tokens on him the other day.
get thanos
@@LunarXZ_ Thank you, I agree they make him seem cool and fun, but seems like you need several other big token cards to win with him.
@@sheldor8909 yeah you do, and then even then, you have to pull those exact cards in an exact order, or you lose every game you don’t. Not worth the tokens at all.
The solution to leech and Aero are turns 1-4. So many decks want to only play 5&6, and those counters (like leader) are very strong counters to people who aren't playing tempo. (Leech's other issue is lockjaw and thanos. Being able to cheat him out early is something Cozy minimized, but is a giant issue too. Leech on curve is fine)
Leech into retreat is my favorite combo
About the Collection level i absolutely agree, I'm 4k CL and I have so little variants! So many cards I could be playing only if I had a decent variant for them.. This is something they should do, increase the % of variant drop and lower the titles and avatars, because there's so many variants coming out each month it's crazy how much we're missing out!
I was in the opposite boat. Awesome variants and InfSplits.. but missing basic S3 cards!
@@oddjr fr got the variants, just missing key cards like she hulk and others
@@oddjr Same here, I don't care about having 6 Mantis cards. There should be either option to pick variant or basic cards in the menu. Once I have 95% of the cards and could afford to collect tokens to buy the remaining 15 cards, I wouldn't mind about variants.
About avatars and titles, we all use them because we have them, but given the option, I'm pretty sure most of the players will play like me with no title and "special" avatar.
Don’t Ben Brode know that the majority of us don’t care (including me) for Titles and Avatars smmfh 🤦🏽We want shiny cards and Variants lol!
@@XXSittinsidewaysxX these are fillers to entice players to spend money to speed up progression to get more cards and chances for variants. This is sadly how 2nd dinner's business model works.
Getting a title or an avatar feels horrid, anything other than cards feels like a waste, even 100 tokens means we are spending 6000 Credits to buy a single Pool 3 card in the token shop...
Just a quick feedback: the fact that most people don't have access to cards, for me at least it feels like I don't even want to watch content with Pool 5 decks, why bother?
I think a system like League of Legends, f2p hero rotation would be great, make 1 or 2 or 3 cards for a limited time free to play
These podcasts are my favorite Snap content! Y'all are spot on about the card acquisition. 2 months in, I'm ~1200 collection level, and seeing new cards feels like I'm just a class below and unable to participate.
I get needing to level up and complete pool 3, but 1 new pool 3 per month, 2 pool 4 cards, and 1 pool 5 with a big bad every 3-4 months is a easy ti implement step in the right direction. It doesn't solve the issue, but it reduces the barrier for entry for the game from 6 to a couple of months.
Hearthstone has treated me so poorly as a F2P that I don't think the card acquisition is that slow.
Awesome advice for the F2P players! I've been on some forums and chatting with some people trying to figure out how run the collection track gauntlet. Currently on 1k collection score just need she-hulk for that awesome baero deck. Thanks for making our Fridays awesome as always!
I always look forward to yalls podcast. Keep up the great work guys!
I have been playing for 2 months. I am by no means F2P. I have 18 cards left in series 3. And only 3 non season pass pool 4/5 cards. Yes it is too slow. Considering I play against people with 4-5 series 4/5 cards at times. Just let me play against those around my CL level. 😊
what CL are you ? that's kinda fast ngl, i've been playing since December and still on 1.7kish
Do they know how this game works? As FTP player I PREFER current system with demotions of cards pool 5->4 4->3 etc and a chance getting good cards (e.g. Shuri was my last demoted card I got, Shehulk before that) over introducing new crappy cards in pool 3 with no chance of eventually getting good pool 4 and 5 cards. 4:00 Player who spends big money and tokens are upset about FTP players who gets these good cards later for free?
10:35 After complete pool 3 I will be looking towards demoted cards. I see no problem there. 12:40 How many cards they demoted to pool 3 in last month? 3 in feb and 4 in jan. IT IS A CARD A WEEK. What he is talking about?
25:00 no I will not spend those 10$. What a horrible suggestion for FTP newbie.
I have 10k gold and 7k tokens, but at least I see some value in them. I have not spent them at all. But I have 1k boosters for my Sentinel. What to do with them? And "variants" after Infinity split is always dissapointment.
And no, I will not spend money to boost progression. Goal is to get earlier in "boring" post pool 3 phase? And spend money for it? I still have 2-3 month of healthy ~10 card unlocks per month.
Hello guys, hope you are all well. My daughter had a suggestion or question, if it has been asked. I apologize.
"Hello, maybe this can be a subject to discuss, and I many not explain this right, but why don't the card set have their own themes, why they do not work well together, like all the Pyms, Fantastic Four, Masters of Evil, Thunderbolts. They sold Daredevil and Elektra and they don't work together at all. Why they work better individually mixed decks and don't have a central theme together. I think it would give some value if certain pair worked better together, like Magneto, Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch, or the Avengers, where they get a bonus ability or theme ability?"
Thank you gentlemen.
People should be more comfortable allowing the collection adventure guide their decks and playstyles. I got Mr. Negative as one of my first cards, and I strictly used that until I had a broader collection, and it was fantastic anyways. KM Best and others have also made videos saying there are NO EXCUSES for being bad at the game when they can use your pool 1 or pool 2 cards to play at the highest levels
I'm at around 1770:ish CL F2P. Unlocks feel so bad honestly. Have only gotten one non series 3 card so far, Attuma. And I recently opened 6 reserves in a row without a card. Yes I know it evens out, 2 cards in 8 opened but sucked when you go that far in between. Also have had the worst luck. My last card was Psylocke which was good. However before that I opened Rockslide ( sucks without Darkhawk), Baron Mordo ( no comment needed), Hela ( I hate playing discard) and Deadpool ( having already bought the Deadpool bundle so had the variant).
Also why have sooo many titles in the game? I have 3 infinite titles from the 3 seasons I have played the game. Personally I want to use those since they actually came with some form of accomplishment I did in the game. I have zero appeal using a random title I got out of a reserve.
Avatars I have one I have grown to like and "identify as myself" in the game. Basically any other avatar I get will be useless.
And finally... pixel variants. Getting those just feel bad because you know it could have been a non pixel one and you got the damn pixel version. If they need to have low effort pixel variants make it so we get them as a bonus when we receive a normal variant. So for example when you get a variant there is a 10% chance you will receive a pixel variant on top of the one you got. The majority of the playerbase doesn't like the pixel variant so for the love of god stop flooding us with them. If they only are a bonus you will feel good getting them since it's at least a 25 credit CL upgrade and you didn't get cheated out on a normal variant.
YES it takes far too long to gain cards, 2nd it takes far too many games to actually be able to play your deck. Too many times you either don't get the cards that you need to play while your opponent gets optimum pulls and worse too many zones are negative and lazy effects so you can only play two maybe one zone. A game that was fun a few months ago is slowly strangling the enjoyment I've noticed myself less and less. Instead of giving all these variant cards GIVE ACTUALLY NEW CARDS, gain variants when you split the card. Oh yay new cards that all my opponents will have that I will never get to see in my deck, can't wait.
Also an Issue. I also got Ghost and Stature, yet I dont know what to do with them and bc noone does content on them, I feel like I had a bad draw. Than when they'll drop they might be the best card in the world. I just didn't knew how to play with them so I feel bad once more.
Happened with She-Hulk. When I first got her, I was like... 10 power... that's weak. Rather play Leader on 6 and be fine. Now she's an S Tier card.
I'd really like to see card acquisition modified a bit. Keep the token shop and keep the same costs, slightly increase token gains, make cards "craftable" for like 20%(or whatever) more than the token shop. Keep new releases to token shop and caches etc. That way The grind doesn't feel like such a casino. Maybe even Keep pool 5 to token shop only etc. Just a thought
I have Thanos pinned. Im halfway through pool 3 unlocks and he popped as my offer. The card unlocks just need to be a tad more frequent. Im sick of spending 1000 credits to get to the next reserve to get 100 gold or 200 credits instead of a card I dont have.
I disagree that cards like Leech are fine. Leech and Scorpion need to be nerfed to where they only effect the 2 left cards in the opponents hand or something like that. There’s no reason your opponent should be able to drop a card that effects every card in your hand. Up to 7 cards. That’s too powerful. It’s different with cards like Sauron or MODOK because they are effecting your own cards. But effecting 7 cards of an opponent is too strong.
In regards to the meta right now I think it's the worst it's ever been (minus maybe leader). I made it to the 90s this season after finally giving in and getting shuri and feel awful for it. I'm not interested in getting infinite bc I don't want to play shuri decks anymore but anytime I play any other decks (mainly been trying negative and destroyer knull) my rank gets knocked back below 90 after losing to the same couple cards over and over again
It’s not a huge problem
UNLESS
The meta is defined by Tier 5 cards
Then it’s absolutely a problem and we are dealing with that now
If there was just a token shop that wasnt random, and you could just select any card it would alleviate a lot of this.
However, that goes against their design philosophy, because they want people playing different decks. Even though that isnt what happens
I understand all the frustration about not having the cards but as content creators of course you're going to put out content about a new card. Fans are being quite unreasonable because it's not as if all your content is being made about that card. I do understand everyone's frustration but it doesn't make sense to expect you to not do videos about a new card when it comes out. Fans need to keep in mind one very important rule of card games.... STFU
I got a odin pixel from that mystery variant bundle no way pixels should have been possible very disappointing
Hey Alex you should read the jeff comics on marvel unlimited they’re literally a minute long but so funny
The rental option is great, actually. I got lucky and got Galactus at CL1498, so the infinite climb was much easier for me as f2p (except for battle passes.) But given how RNG heavy this game is, not everyone will be lucky in their pulls, which can cause a ton of burnout because they may not he having fun.
I also refuse to buy good cards because I don't want to pay for future nerfed cards
I'd love titles to be removed from collectors caches and give us more opportunities for card unlocks
Being honest with you I have like 14 cards left in p3 and its a chore to aquire cards atm
The slow drip is my favorite part of the game. If everybody can get everything right away, games end up with a stagnant meta with everybody only playing the top cards. Forced creativity is literally why I'm here.
Sure and this conveniently helps them getting money from Whales... And all the people with strong rare cards get free cubes while all the others don't make the meta stagnant because they're forced to play with garbage decks. If you think most people will play this game for long at this current state you're dead wrong.
If you’re poor and can’t afford it. Play free to play cause you’re a free loader. If you pay then you should get premium stuff. This is the most free to play card game out there lol :)
Can’t believe people like Mario Exists in this world… go inside a restaurant and expect steak dinner for free 😂
I agree that card acquisition is slow and they should improve the cache but F2P people shouldn’t complain :)
@Timothy Yap bro shut up, Runeterra card acquisition is much better. I'm tired of card games that dont want to give you cards unless you spend hundreds of dollars. Most of the players base is mad because it's borderline pay to win. Yeah people that paid have played with zabu and surfer when they were op. As soon as everyone can play them they're suddenly a problem and get nerfed. Yeah bro I'm not stupid, I even paid premium to get Zabu but I see what they're doing, and it's clear this game cannot be taken seriously.
@@SuperMarioTomma95 love Runterra
So while I agree generally with what Cozy said about cards not making the biggest difference, I got Knull right when he dropped to 3k (he was pinned in my shop) then pulled Galactus in the same day from a Reserve, and went from having topped out around level 60 in previous seasons to around 90 this season (maybe I'll hit infinite before it ends?), so certainly SOME cards can make that big of a difference.
Yes, it is. I don't know what threshold I passed, but I was at 87 2 days ago and now 75% plus matches I am in have Thanos, Knull, Galactus and a bunch of other Series 5 expensive token cards that just smoke me. I'm back down to 57, and I feel like I am only able to beat bots these days. CL 2943.
Card acquisition is terrible.
You need to have 1 deck that you love and is complete and just grind it and master it.
The slow drip is my favorite part of the game. If everybody can get everything right away, games end up with a stagnant meta with everybody only playing the top cards. Forced creativity is literally why I'm here.
The moment you hit Level 50 you're playing full meta decks with all rare splits regardless, with your Level 49 "What you have" deck
Just commenting to say that I'm glad to see your channel is doing well with the Marvel Snap coverage. You had a few great DOTA2 videos that taught me a lot a few years ago, straight to the point and very useful, but obviously DOTA is a very saturated market. Glad to see snap is working well for you!
Thank you so much! I truly appreciate it! I do miss Dota sometimes, but ultimately, I'm having a blast with Marvel Snap. Its literally the polar opposite to Dota LOL. Thank you for your kind words and for taking the time to leave such a nice comment
It sucks because I actually love seeing videos on new cards even if I don't have them
A little off topics, I would love to see a QOL change that would allow players to tap on a card then tap so that we could see all the variants for that character. And we could buy the variants we want.
This might be the most insightful one yet love this series. I don't wanna be annoying but can we get Snap Drafts back with you and Cozy?
Wouldn't it be ironic if we all struggled to get pool 3 complete only to have them overhaul the system and make it easier?
Isn't that life though?
I would want new players after ms to have it easier than me otherwise the game loses all promises of longevity
It would destroy the game, players would be furious and quit the game if new players got all series 3 cards unlocked for free.
True, but it'll help Snap get more players. And more the players, more the fun
@@lstealth would they? I don't care if I had friends join the game and get the cards a lot faster than I did. Doesn't mean they'd beat me in game. Nerfing pay walled cards after they reach FTP is a bigger issue.
I agree, don't buy those $100 bundles, send them a message!!
I clapped when Alex said : can we get a card a week, why do we feel so behind
An idea i have is after a set collection level every 3rd collectors box it gives you a 3 card draft and you get to pick which one you want.
