Have you considered doing something like a snap all stars video where you do real quick lore summaries for a few of the snap cards that are staples in the game but very obscure from before you started these videos? For instance, characters like jeff, zabu, iron lad, hood etc. who are very frequently seen but people dont know about? It could be less detail than these videos but i think theyd be very cool because seriously who tf is Zabu.
Yes! He's a big sabertooth cat- Nando, I need a video asap
I don't think there's really much to Zabu past his connection to Kazar who is like the actual important character. Zabu is just kind of his pet sabertooth cat who goes on adventures with him. I think they could easily be combined into one episode if Nando decided to do it though.
@@koifish835 I guess that's the idea about doing a bunch at once, he could summarize all Savage Land characters in one video, or all "Obscure 1-Cost cards" in one.
Zabu is the sabertooth sidekick for Ka-Zar. (long story short, Marvel Tarzan)
I've wanted this for a while. I consider myself a very average Marvel fan, here is the list of characters I know 0 about:
The Hood
Misty Knight
Nico Minoru
Selene
Snowguard
Zero
Martyr
Quake
Colleen Wing
Maximus
Brood
Crystal
Debrii
Deathlok
Sword Master
Hell Cow
Typhoid Mary
Sera
Aero
Giganto
I think the idea is that Thena and the goddess she’s based on is supposed to be a master battlefield strategist, so she rewards you for carefully coordinating how you play your cards.
Tzaboth is a Hebrew word that means "Armies", usually translated as "Hosts". Its kinda like being called "Legion".
I honestly liked what they did with Thena in the movie: I thought Angelina Jolie brought a cute playful energy to the character and they brought an allegory about mental illness seen as dangerous that I thought was the most compelling part of the movie
I've mentioned this before on one of your videos, but Sera and Angela are two characters that I 100% did not know existed before playing marvel snap; it would be fun to learn more about them
I knew Angela from spawn, but yeah sera was unknown to me. Same with infinaut
I feel like I remember, in the movie, that Thena is basically like “the Greek god Athena is me, they just misrepresented my name over the years, I’m the only one.” Just some weird “I’m basically worshipped as a god” type shit. Felt weird.
I think a video on zero would be interesting
I’d like to learn more about Armor. She seems like a semi high profile X-Men character from what I can tell but I know almost nothing about her (yes, it’s because she hasn’t been in a movie, don’t judge)
Definitely my favorite character from the eternals movie
Thank you for this one! The Eternals are probably my favorite Marvel characters, and their movie is one of my favorite of the mcu!
Nando, SD said Ikarus isnt in this season bc theyre planning on doing another Eternals season at some point and they already had gilgamesh designed so they didnt want 2 "strong dudes" in the same season
9:35 got me Googling if I missed Karen Gillan changing career paths into comic writing
You did him briefly in the Mockingbird video, but Kazar could be fun!
Have you considered doing a video on Ikaris, and then brainstorming what his card would look like if he was in Marvel Snap?
Sersi's son Apocryphus is a member of the Anachronauts in Chronopolis.
I believe he is from an alternate reality or timeline.
It would make a lot of sense to fold the Eternals into Thor stories. They're connected through all the gods stuff and with Love having/being Eternity it can connect to all the higher beings of the universe including the celestials.
Ikarus had a son once, he flew too close to the sun and died, so he named himself after him
I think for her abilities, they just figured the playerbase could compare her to Angela visually, so might as well make a different version of Angela in an ability too
I play her with Kitty Pride, Riri, Grandmaster, and a few Guardians
Love the series, thank you for keep doing it :). As for existing cards, I'd love Sera and Angela. They are both in the Twitch drops rewards this month, so there is a nice angle as well 😀.
Man, ive been using her and she is STRONG, especially with how powerful the cheap card decks are these days.
I cant see her not getting nerfed in coming weeks.
I'd love to see you tackle Nico Minoru for 2 reasons:
1) the original run of The Runaways is my favorite comic.
2) I have no idea where she went to after they rescued Clara (give us a new volume damit!), but I'm aware she has showed up in other stuff, including one or two of Arcade's Murderworlds.
Maybe an Angela/Sera episode could be fun! Also Nico Minoru and Hit Monkey, I didn't knew they existed before Snap
I’d like to see one of these videos on Darkhawk
It would be interesting to cover other Snap characters by deck archetype! Maybe pick a popular meta deck and do a quick run down of each card and if they have comic history together.
Love these videos, I would like to know more about Enchantress or Nico, we didn’t see much of marvel’s magic based characters in the movies and they look very interesting!
These videos got me to play snap, I've never gotten into a card game before but this is so addicting! I just got my day 7 magneto and I recently got to gold. I like how each series has its own meta and you can either try to incorporate the new cards into your current deck or build something completely new. I'm getting some series 2 cards and running a hybrid of devil dino and destroy that works pretty well somehow
It's really fun to get to know more less known characters this way
The Eternals can in fact have children. They just can’t have children with each other. For example, Ikaris is the father of the mythological Icarus, taking on his son’s name to honor his death.
I might’ve fever dreamed this cause the movie put me to sleep but I swear there was a line in the Eternals that said something along the lines of Athena the Greek goddess is named after Thena because the Eternals have been around forever and were the inspiration for all the other gods. Idk I could just be making it up
I'm more interested in seeing your wishlist for future snap cards
The eternal movie is good, i want a sequel
I know their ability don’t make any direct/obvious connection to anything from the comics or the movie but so far I really like them a lot! And I assume we would get the other 5 eternals from the movie and the dreaming celestial in a season next year or sometime. Would you ever make a video “fan casting”/theorizing what their powers could be/what you would like them to be?
At the end of the day, not all cards can be thematic..... It's Just Better to prioritize playability.... Props for the "Twins" interpretation tho
Eternals *was* great, nando!
I'd love a breakdown of Medusa. She's the only card in my deck idk anything about.
Enjoying a bounce deck with Gillgamesh, though you can't often get a lot of activations out of him. This looks better in that area, but we already have Collector and Angela in this capacity. Sage is an option too. And Cull.
I’d be interested in a history of Elsa Bloodstone. I only know from the MCU.
I am annoyed Ikaris, THE Eternal, has no card in this season.
As far as 'specific' sugguestions, I really don't. But how about a 'double feature' where you talk about 1 card you like, and 1 you don't?
What comic run was that storyline where they meet the gods then get into a fight with them?
I wanna know about Deathlok
Isnt the Eternals having kids esencial to Thanos backstory?
🤔 conspiracy theory - this release was meant to coincide with Eternals 2 and August’s leaked release with MCU Young Avengers (?)
Do Infinaut! […finishes video…]
I hope someone just decides to make an eternals series. Be it animation or love action because there was so much wasted potential
the Eternals movie *was* great though
Who is Zero?
Not the twins! Only i remember them. I know marvel editorial doesnt.....
Thena, named for the famously VIRGIN goddess, is the one with a lot of kids... I kinda wonder if Kirby knew that when he wrote that. I would have had her named istara or something, one of the fertility goddesses.
🤓
Ângela and sera
I am begging you to clarify that you're saying Kieron Gillen and not Karen Gillan because it's fricking my brain up every time you say his name.
A lot has been changed for the movie with the intention of making it relevant to current society. The movie turned out to be the most irrelevant of all MCU films IMO. Angelina Jolie looks amazing in the role though.
Yeah cause the mcu doesnt deserve an an actual decent film......
Y'know, I'd give the eternals another chance in the mcu is they took the group that went into space and gave them a thor: ragnarok or Guardians of the galaxy style movie, but I'm part of a weird subset of fans who doesn't care if the movie is super great as long as its fun. The eternals and thor 2 were the only mcu movies I didn't like, including the recent ones
