@@Madyson707 thats good too i was thinking of holding out for silk but I don’t have the fortitude I’m gonna get mays pass and buy silk with tokens. Yeah i just was thinking of a simple but strong combo
I really hope they can do something to allow us to make more than 20 decks. Now with so much new cards coming and combos, 20 decks isn’t enough at all. 20 was good the first couple months but now we need to able to make at least 30-40
@LuciferLuvs yeah I think some people just have a problem deleting decks. No reason to have any more than 5 or so at a time, because you shouldn't be playing that many on any given day unless you just change decks every game lmfao
@LuciferLuvs I don't want to say there's no reason for more decks because of casual players, but anyone who is seriously trying to rank up, which should be most people playing the game given there's only a ladder mode, are not able to play more than a few decks well. So those people who are switching decks that much are most likely lower rank
@LuciferLuvs i make a lot of decks and use a lot of cards and test them to see what works with what. Plus there’s so many styles of play and now these new cards unlock even more ways to play. High evolutionary in itself can open up a lot create 3- 4 decks on its own. I play different decks of discard, destroy, cerebro, etc. 20 decks just isn’t enough for me realistically. I have a lot of cards but even then a lot of cards can be put into so many decks. I shouldn’t have to delete a deck to create a new one
The “why birds suck” segment was a hilarious digression lol. So hyped for the new season!! Have a ton of collectors tokens, think I’ll get High Evo AND Iron Lad for multiple deck potential
I would love to hear more of you and Alex riffing about non-Snap things, your content has always been solid but I genuinely think the 3 minutes of you guys talking about birds was the most enjoyment I've had listening to your podcast! Alex's Canadian stories are wonderful, lets get more in the SnapChat!
Looking forward to launching our new Bird Fight Club channel, but as per the first rule of Bird Fight Club, we won't be able to tell you about Bird Fight Club so good luck finding the channel :C
I can see The Watcher coming back in play for Nebula. Cause if you have both of them in your hand at start and see that the other two lane is a no card play lane she can benefit from.
New to the game and looking forward to these episodes!! Amazingly condensed useful info to help veterans and noobs alike. Keep up the great work you 2!
Amazing video as always Cozy and Alex. But i think you missed something here. Using Scorpion on turn 2 to affect your enemy's hand won't affect Abomination at all. Because Abomination's effect clearly states that it's power will only be reduced if a card is affected by -1 power *after* it's in play. Not before. Scorpion affects cards before they are in play. So Abomination won't have it's power reduced even if those cards are played afterwards.
I'm looking forward to High Evolutionary most of all. It may or may not turn out good (though I think it will be good), but I like cards that enable entirely new decks by themselves; they are great value for tokens, and i've got enough saved for him as soon as he shows up :) I am expecting to have ~12k tokens so I can get him and one other.
It is definitely the most interesting of the cards because it creates an alternate no ability deck to patriot, and all the negative effect stuff boosts stuff like hazmat that isnt so reliant on wong.
Not to mention big bad cards are always going to be the best value of token usage. If I have enough tokens for Iron Lad after getting High Evolutionary I may have to grab him if I see him on rotation.
23:04 A wise man once said, "You wanna know what? You got a problem with Canada Gooses, you got a problem with me, and I suggest you let that one marinate."
What I think is so cool about High Evolutionary is that it sets up a precedent for the future of a way to bring new concepts to cards we already have. For example, one thing I always thought was odd is that the Fantastic Four in this game don't have any synergy with each other. But imagine if in the future there was a card (maybe HERBIE the robot?) where if you have it in your deck, it totally changes the effects of your Mr Fantastic, Invisible Woman, Thing, & Human Torch into a new package where they all synergize well with each other and you can play this FF theme deck as a new archetype ?? It bodes well for the long term future of Marvel Snap, as the game continues introducing more & more cards, eventually we might run low on the big iconic characters but this could be a way to make sure that the old characters never get stale if the game reaches a point where there aren't many prominent Marvel heroes left who haven't become cards.
Hey guys, just wanted to say I got infinite for the first time a couple of days ago with a combination of your decks (R&H, Destroy bounce, Monkey Sera) and to say thank you for the incredible content you both put out! 😁
Suggestions: For topic ordering, I'd put the balance patch review first because I'm sure a lot of people have been waiting for your guys' opinion on it (plus, conceptually talking about topics in the order of past/present/future seems like the way to go). Secondly, I'd remove the snap music from the background of the podcast, anyone who is watching this probably plays a decent amount of snap and is over hearing it (probably don't need any music in the background honestly). Regardless, as always, great Snap Chat!
I would really appreciate a new in-depth guide for Thanos from one or both of you! I find the older post-beta videos a little outdated and so far I've been pretty disappointed since i dropped 6k on him
Move decks has this problem with stacking too much power in the same lane, sometimes you end up with 60 power in the same lane if you dont pay attention, so maybe, who knows, Living Tribunal could be goos for the high aggro move decks with that 40+ human torch, 13+ vulturure amd 20+ dagger, so sharing the power looks like a fix for me
Iron Lad's potential to copy a 5 and 6 cost cards, but Lad's played on turn 4, or turn 3 with Zabu, can be huge too.There's Leader, Onslaught, Dr Doom, or even Spectrum since Lad already synergizes so well with ongoing. That said, there is a potential for a Lockjaw or Jubilee deck with a bunch of higher cost cards in the deck. So much potential on Iron Lad
The first deck that came to my mind when I saw High Evolutionary is actually Agatha, it's the only card (I think?) who is guaranteed to be the left-most card in your hand, so Shocker will allow you to play it on t5 🍻🍻
If shocker doesn't ramp your left most card, then he'll potentially provide you with 1 unspent energy providing synergy to the other unspent energy cards.
This was the best Snapchat so far, purely because your casual talk on birds. Your synergy is awesome, the two best content creators for Marvel Snap. Videos from you two: insta-like.
I was an Elektra truther even before Nebula got announced. I'll force her in even more decks now. Even if you just hit a Korg you got a 1/3 out of it, as a 1/1 she's underwhelming but the ceiling is huge in a world of Sunspot, Ebony Maw, Nebula and if prio and foretelling lines up even Kitty Pride
The Gamora variant you showed at the beginning is my favorite variant in the game. Because of this variant and this variant alone, I have never played a single ranked match without her in my deck (since you get her) and have 15 splits of the variant. Glad to see you allow it to linger in the public eye for so long Alex: all twelve cards are of critical importance to your deck Me: my Gamora… is very important
You don’t know how much I appreciate you guys telling the Canadian geese story. Lol that has been my life for the last month. These geese have been terrorizing my coworkers and I. Overall love the videos and look forward to them every week.
Maybe I missed it but have you done a dedicated breakdown video for the locations? Talking about every deck, but from the direction of location interactions
Something to note about Ironlad is that he reveals to your opponent what the top card of your deck actually is, so it does sacrifice some information too your opponent if you use him before turn 6
I think the thing people miss with iron lad is that unlike jubilee, you also draw that top card next turn. So any effect that you only need once like mister negative or Galactus, that you copy with him, leaves you with a dead draw. That doesn't make him bad, but definitely should be considered in deck design in comparison with jubilee. .
I didn't see you mention Hazmat when you were talking about Luke Cage. That's another way to get a TON of negatives on cards in play for Abomination, right?
I'm stoked at the Enchantress buffs, I've always run her in my deck along with Lizard and try to play her to negate his ongoing effects so the nerf is fine by me. Loving the podcasts, though I will say I struggle with deck recommendations just because I'm at a different level to you guys and am facing different opponents, so my matchup doesn't work as planned. That being said my Hit Monkey deck has been working great
Best snap chat ever with all of the bird talk. I think you gotta help the old lady out, but I wouldn't blame you for not stepping in and enjoying the show.
I recently learned that any card that adds to your deck shuffles the deck meaning that korg and rockslide can be devastating answers to Howard the duck and iron lad, and if they are playing Chavez for consistency they can get Chavez stuck in the top of the deck blocking all iron lad plays.
two things - Howard duck is like little daredevil for you - you are not sure if you want to snap because you are missing card for a combo? Howard will tell you your next card - The living tribunal will work great in destroy deck with Knull especially negative - the only problem is like you mentioned Enchantress...
I think Living Tribunal has two paths. Locking away locations with Storm and Professor X then winning those locations by dividing your total power. Similar to what Cozy says in the video. The other path could be hiding a huge lane behind Invisible Woman.
@@dificulttocure Mr.Negative deck to make him a 4 cost could be fun. Then basically at any point at turn 5-6 you could destroy it or enchantress it yourself to bait the opponent to spread. He might not be a card like Galactus where dropping it wins you games but more as another win condition to play big number cards like in a Sandman control deck and only using LT when there are locations you can't play on.
@@ROFLWAFFLELAWL4 No way LT is good in a sandman deck. Sanman decks are already sacrificing a lot of power turn 4/5 to play sandman, you cannot do the same in turn 5/6 with LT. That's supposed to be your Doom/Odin turn. If you play LT you would end up with something like 7 power in each location, which is a joke. Mr Negative is the best option for him I agree, but he's been out of meta since forever. So yeah, if you are saying that LT's best deck is a tier 3 at best, then you're kinda proving my point.
@ShenEvil That's the thing, he's power is just too low for an effect that might not even be beneficial to you. I don't see how he can compete with decks that drop 20+ power in turn 6, which are almost any deck nowadays.
Interestingly the living tribunal is actually already in the MCU. In the latest Dr Strange film we see him as they’re travelling through the multiverse.
I just realized how well Iron Lad synergizes with America Chavez. Think about it: AC increases reliability of getting cards within first 5 turns, but getting a card by turn 6, she's worse, but having Iron Lad allows you to access the ability of that card that you WOULD draw on turn 6, but gets left on the top of the deck because AC is drawn instead...
Imagine iron Lad in your Iron Patriot deck Cozy, you can get early Sera, mystique, iron man, Patriot, blue marvel, Skrull, heck even copying the hood is good, turn into 5 cost 12 power. Or copying bishop and starting at 6 power, he could carry a lane just by himself
Cozy just watching idly by as an old lady getting her eyes pecked out by a goose for the content shows you the dedication this guy brings for our entertainment
iron lad actually seems interesting in a negative deck even though it'd be a pretty dead draw after; it's a 6 power that uses the strong effects you run in the deck from all the low power cards, including negative and is a way to "draw" negative earlier a-la jubilee while also clogging less the board; also works with zabu and psylock to be played turn 3 as negative of course
I think something pretty interesting could be Nebula and Lizard in two separate lanes. That way in order to be able to mitigate their effects, you would have to fill both lanes (playing once a turn in Nebula's lane). Most decks are not built to be able to fill two lanes like that, so you could really see at least one or both Lizard and Nebula do well.
Iron Lad will be a better Nimrod. Nimrod at a 4 cost is significantly more playable than at 5 cost. If Iron Lad can copy that text, he turns into a 4/6 split (possibly 3/6 split).
Think of Ironlad like this: it's a 4/6 card that acts as both a mystique and an Absorbing man for one random card in your deck, plus he can work on cards without on reveal or ongoing abilities such as Dracula
High Evo and hulk alone in a deck is turbo good. Don't even have to intentionally skip mana sometimes you cant play a card np hulk has you covered now. It's like having a sunspot you dont have to play until turn 6 and that is nuts. Worst case scenario you have a 12 point hulk....thats still good!
I wonder if Iron Lad will keep the text if it goes back to hand like if it copied deadpool and you destroy it to sent it back to hand with 12 power does it then keep then deadpool text or does it go back to the on reveal ability instead
So something to note with the living tribunal, it might work well with movement decks. They tend to end up with 1 VERY high power lane, even before heimdal. It might be a staple for some versions of that deck. I'm not sure though.
The thing I'm curious with Iron Lad is when it says it copies the text of the card: Does that mean it can become an ongoing card if the card says its ongoing? Or if it's a sunspot, it would copy the full text and act the same? Basically a similar effect to Leader or Mystique/Absorbing man but it can be anything, it's just a slight gamble like Morph but more influenceable as it's copying from your deck. Also Shocker I could see plays in bounce Sera decks. Imagine using him and reducing the cost of all of your bounce cards by 1 on top of Beast who could get reduced himself or there to reduce further.
Oh I just had a conversation earlier today on the subreddit, but Howard could also be a great bluff card like Kang where you snap turn 5 making your opponent think you have the top deck
Iron Lad with ongoing will be gross with ongoing but imagine getting a Doom effect turn 3, a 3-6 sandman turn 3. Rescue starting at 6 and then bump to 11? I'm excited
That part of the video when you said talked about "playing a deck, you lose, switch decks", etc. is the exact problem I have. I just get so discouraged.
Haven't watched yet. But one thing im excited for is Nebula with Mojo. You force them to play there to stop Neb from growing. But you are also baiting them into making mojo grow. So its a huge mind game for only 2 cards. High Evolutionary is also amazing. So very excited for him. Hes hopefully gonna shake up the meta.
I literally just built Cerebro 2 today. Loved your video on it, sucks that I’m maybe too late to the party. Maybe I need to pick up Luke Cage myself to have a fighting chance haha.
I have a fun video idea; it's a 1v1 (individual matches) against one other person and you have to draft a deck each. The goal is to find an enemy playing a card from the deck you have drafted. Whoever has seen the least cards from the drafted deck loses. It is similair to bingo
This has been a great season for me. For starters, I bought Galactus a few weeks ago and he brought me from 30s all the way to the 80s!! Still trying to get to 90s before the season ends, but im making that climb. And, SOMEHOW i was lucky enough to pull THANOS from a Collectors Reserve Saturday night, completely unexpected and out of nowhere. Excited to experiment with him and look at a few deck guides for him next season and get some cubes. So overall, gotta say this was a great month for me Snap wise
Cozy I’ve recently got both Thanos and Sauron. Love the creativity with Thanos but finding a bit harder of a time running a consistent Sauron/Shuri deck. Would love videos or guides for either deck with all the recent nerfs/buffs
Said it before, the problem with Shanna is that unlike Squirrel Girl, she also summons into her own lane which screws up your own board space on anything but turn 6
Alright Hit Me with your Craziest Nebula Combos/Decks?!
Nebula, armor, and uatu with uatu you can play nebula into sanctum sanctorum if it’s the not revealed yet third location on turn 1 then armor your opponent can’t stop it unless they have Jeff or galactus.

Yup I think Tribunal is easily the worst card this month
@@joseph2000117 yeah seems like the strongest play with him is to pile ironman, mystique and onslaught then tribunal, enchantress just ruins this.

The way Alex said the word docile is probably gonna keep me up at night
Living Tribunal is going to be a good anti-control deck
How is Living tribunal any good? I think the card is unplayable trash. In which deck would you play it?
I agree!
@@dificulttocure Mr.Negative deck to make him a 4 cost could be fun. Then basically at any point at turn 5-6 you could destroy it or enchantress it yourself to bait the opponent to spread.
He might not be a card like Galactus where dropping it wins you games but more as another win condition to play big number cards like in a Sandman control deck and only using LT when there are locations you can't play on.
@@ROFLWAFFLELAWL4 No way LT is good in a sandman deck. Sanman decks are already sacrificing a lot of power turn 4/5 to play sandman, you cannot do the same in turn 5/6 with LT. That's supposed to be your Doom/Odin turn. If you play LT you would end up with something like 7 power in each location, which is a joke.
Mr Negative is the best option for him I agree, but he's been out of meta since forever. So yeah, if you are saying that LT's best deck is a tier 3 at best, then you're kinda proving my point.
@ShenEvil That's the thing, he's power is just too low for an effect that might not even be beneficial to you. I don't see how he can compete with decks that drop 20+ power in turn 6, which are almost any deck nowadays.
Interestingly the living tribunal is actually already in the MCU. In the latest Dr Strange film we see him as they’re travelling through the multiverse.
I just noticed the Cozy Snap around the borders on the cards. Nice touch!
I just realized how well Iron Lad synergizes with America Chavez. Think about it: AC increases reliability of getting cards within first 5 turns, but getting a card by turn 6, she's worse, but having Iron Lad allows you to access the ability of that card that you WOULD draw on turn 6, but gets left on the top of the deck because AC is drawn instead...
Another great episode guys, genuinely enjoyed the bird and duck chat 😂.
Imagine iron Lad in your Iron Patriot deck Cozy, you can get early Sera, mystique, iron man, Patriot, blue marvel, Skrull, heck even copying the hood is good, turn into 5 cost 12 power. Or copying bishop and starting at 6 power, he could carry a lane just by himself
Bro Ironlad brood/sinister,Black Panter is nuts. He is going to be incredible
Living Tribunal with Hela discard sounds interesting
You don't have to skip turns to get Hulk to max power, you just need to play below curve and hold on to 1 energy every turn.
^
The part where Alex was talking about the geese was the best part
Cozy just watching idly by as an old lady getting her eyes pecked out by a goose for the content shows you the dedication this guy brings for our entertainment
You guys are killing it!! Well done boys, content is sounding super pro
Cheers
Howard the Duck will be almost a requirement with Iron Lad, preventing it from being used in non-casino decks unless you have both for the most part
iron lad actually seems interesting in a negative deck even though it'd be a pretty dead draw after; it's a 6 power that uses the strong effects you run in the deck from all the low power cards, including negative and is a way to "draw" negative earlier a-la jubilee while also clogging less the board; also works with zabu and psylock to be played turn 3 as negative of course
I think something pretty interesting could be Nebula and Lizard in two separate lanes. That way in order to be able to mitigate their effects, you would have to fill both lanes (playing once a turn in Nebula's lane). Most decks are not built to be able to fill two lanes like that, so you could really see at least one or both Lizard and Nebula do well.
“Turn 1 matters now!”
Killmonger: Execute Order 66
Iron Lad will be a better Nimrod. Nimrod at a 4 cost is significantly more playable than at 5 cost. If Iron Lad can copy that text, he turns into a 4/6 split (possibly 3/6 split).
I’m asking for the second month in a row. Is there a video feed of the entire podcast anywhere?
So I guess there is not a video feed of the entire podcast?
Agree: tribunal as a surprise in galactus. Especially if you’ve ramped out a destroyer, or doc oc into Shang, and do the math.
Think of Ironlad like this: it's a 4/6 card that acts as both a mystique and an Absorbing man for one random card in your deck, plus he can work on cards without on reveal or ongoing abilities such as Dracula
If i had to bet, ill wager and say this is going to be the best snap month of all time
You guys were on fire this episode. The bird fight club digression slayed me more than a Canadian goose would slay an old lady.
High Evo and hulk alone in a deck is turbo good. Don't even have to intentionally skip mana sometimes you cant play a card np hulk has you covered now. It's like having a sunspot you dont have to play until turn 6 and that is nuts. Worst case scenario you have a 12 point hulk....thats still good!
BFC 😂😂 im loving both your content. I'm well excited for this season, need all these cards ASAP
Got to Infinite today for the first time with Rocks & Hawks. Thanks a lot, Cozy!
Your content is amazing!
I wonder if Iron Lad will keep the text if it goes back to hand like if it copied deadpool and you destroy it to sent it back to hand with 12 power does it then keep then deadpool text or does it go back to the on reveal ability instead
Feel Tribunal is a little underwhelming shoulda been split between two locations but that may be to much.
So something to note with the living tribunal, it might work well with movement decks. They tend to end up with 1 VERY high power lane, even before heimdal. It might be a staple for some versions of that deck. I'm not sure though.
Very True Movement loves to stack power on the left!
The thing I'm curious with Iron Lad is when it says it copies the text of the card: Does that mean it can become an ongoing card if the card says its ongoing? Or if it's a sunspot, it would copy the full text and act the same? Basically a similar effect to Leader or Mystique/Absorbing man but it can be anything, it's just a slight gamble like Morph but more influenceable as it's copying from your deck.
Also Shocker I could see plays in bounce Sera decks. Imagine using him and reducing the cost of all of your bounce cards by 1 on top of Beast who could get reduced himself or there to reduce further.
Hazmat is also good for spreading -1 effects
Oh I just had a conversation earlier today on the subreddit, but Howard could also be a great bluff card like Kang where you snap turn 5 making your opponent think you have the top deck
Iron Lad with ongoing will be gross with ongoing but imagine getting a Doom effect turn 3, a 3-6 sandman turn 3. Rescue starting at 6 and then bump to 11? I'm excited
That part of the video when you said talked about "playing a deck, you lose, switch decks", etc. is the exact problem I have. I just get so discouraged.
Haven't watched yet. But one thing im excited for is Nebula with Mojo. You force them to play there to stop Neb from growing. But you are also baiting them into making mojo grow. So its a huge mind game for only 2 cards. High Evolutionary is also amazing. So very excited for him. Hes hopefully gonna shake up the meta.
@cozy Snap feeling like living tribunal will be crazy to run in desks with super skrull honestly as that card has been on the raise.
Another great video from you both. How does one get into Bird Fight Club?
The Bird Fight Club will contact you
Is living tribunal a permanent series 5?
I literally just built Cerebro 2 today. Loved your video on it, sucks that I’m maybe too late to the party. Maybe I need to pick up Luke Cage myself to have a fighting chance haha.
I have a fun video idea; it's a 1v1 (individual matches) against one other person and you have to draft a deck each. The goal is to find an enemy playing a card from the deck you have drafted. Whoever has seen the least cards from the drafted deck loses. It is similair to bingo
This has been a great season for me. For starters, I bought Galactus a few weeks ago and he brought me from 30s all the way to the 80s!! Still trying to get to 90s before the season ends, but im making that climb. And, SOMEHOW i was lucky enough to pull THANOS from a Collectors Reserve Saturday night, completely unexpected and out of nowhere. Excited to experiment with him and look at a few deck guides for him next season and get some cubes. So overall, gotta say this was a great month for me Snap wise
Damn "Why Birds Suck" may be the best chapter title for a youtube video ever.
Cozy I’ve recently got both Thanos and Sauron. Love the creativity with Thanos but finding a bit harder of a time running a consistent Sauron/Shuri deck. Would love videos or guides for either deck with all the recent nerfs/buffs
Bruh hazmat high evo abomination would be wild
Said it before, the problem with Shanna is that unlike Squirrel Girl, she also summons into her own lane which screws up your own board space on anything but turn 6
Love the snap chat. Look forward to it every week!
I know Uatu isn;t all that either, but I'd like to see a control deck leaning on him and the Duck, maybe using Storm and Witch as well
I have 5800 tokens and have thanos pinned right now. Would you recommend unpinning and going for high evolutionary instead?
