    I think wave always gets underrated on the list of broken things you played on 5 to lock your opponent out. One-sided sandman for 3 was pretty disgusting in those deathwave decks

    • @vega7106
      @vega7106 3 месяца назад +1

      exactly a 3 cost which could ramp, disrupt and help you dump is a ridiculously good card

  • @WaitWhat-zw2in
    @WaitWhat-zw2in 2 месяца назад +1

    Something I always like to think about when the topic of broken things gets brought up is what would the meta look like if every card was reverted to its prime state? I can only imagine the potential of something like Black Swan Hit Monkey Deathwave, Zabu Sera Black Knight, Ravonna Darkhawk Clog, or Shuri bounce Taskmaster

    @michaelbesser5348 3 месяца назад +6

    Thanks for the new video KM!
    I think no moment will ever stick out to me like when I cued a game of Snap in January 2023. My opponent played a bunch of 3 costs (including 3/2 Zabu) and I, foolishly stayed in. They then played Magik turn 5 and then, on turn 7, hit me with a Wong Surfer Absorbing Man. I don't think I was ever closer to uninstalling the game than after that game. Needless to say, I'm glad things aren't quite like that nowadays!

    @superviolinsads4525 3 месяца назад +1

    I liked this video. Especially close to the 2 year anniversary. Interesting trip down memory lane for sure. I also distinctly remember every time one of these cards was in play, I would always be looking for whatever deck could potentially counter these cards since I always got them after they had gotten nerfed. Was an interesting time. I'm glad we live in a time where snap cards receive balance updates quickly because going a whole month and a half with Leech-Leader back in the day was really something else.

    • @superviolinsads4525
      @superviolinsads4525 3 месяца назад

      Also not sure if it was broken enough to be on this list, but original Shuri was crazy. You could play shuri anywhere and then double that card behind a cosmo to protect your huge Red Skull from all tech including shang, shadow king, and Valk

    @Evan-fw6wt 3 месяца назад +4

    i agree with old thanos himself (plus the old stones) not quite being one of the most broken cards in the games history, although thanos was the enabler to create some of perhaps the most broken decks in the games history (in particular because of pre-nerf quinjet, lockjaw, leech etc

  • @magnus3448
    @magnus3448 3 месяца назад +3

    In a vacuum 5/7 Annihilus that could send over 0 power stuff was one of the most broken things that was released. A big problem it had was it was actually too popular so almost every game was a mirror especially in the first week and games just ended up being about who dropped prio going into turn 5 which severely hurt the overall win rate and feel of the card
    I dont even want to imagine what Annihilus would be like with old white widow, acid arrow and 3/5 Viper

  • @mglikeabossplaysMC
    @mglikeabossplaysMC 3 месяца назад +3

    As a general TCG fan, love videos like this going over the history of certain aspects in a game! You have great insight so you do good on discussion, but if I had to suggest any improvement it'd be to show some footage of the card being used.
    You wouldn't have to have it going at all times, but maybe just a small cutaway once per card showing an interaction. I think it'd go a long way, but I enjoyed the video regardless!

  • @Baltux
    @Baltux 2 месяца назад

    Loved the video. Discussion videos are always fun. Main reason why the "showing different TCG player, our cards and talking about it" is always such a fun format. You are very knowledgable and the discussion is always great. I know you ended that series, but damn I wish I could have ever seen you pick the brains of CovertGoBlue or Cimoo.

    I've always thought you should have a "custom card" segment where you take card ideas from your X (Twitter) page followers submissions and critique why they would be good/bad and what impact those new creative ideas could have on the game as a whole.

    One thing that it does is make me so sad for the loss of Loki. I know he was a problem but even as a 4/5 Loki was one of my favourite cards, I loved the way it played out and how high a skill ceiling the deck had.

    @JamesSmithisMyName 2 месяца назад

    Love the video. "History of Marvel Snap" videos are important for the continued interest in the game. I vote for a "Best Deck in the History of the Game" video next. I believe it is between the Thanos Lockdown deck using Prof X and Spiderman and the OG Thanos Lockjaw deck.

  • @CandyxSkittle
    @CandyxSkittle 3 месяца назад

    Great video, as someone who has been playing since release I find this list very comprehensive. I think the only cards you didn’t include that should’ve been are original shuri (that you could combo with Cosmo) and original lockjaw. I feel prof x also deserved his own slot to be mentioned, his name was brought up a lot in the vid but didn’t get his own section. Great yap sesh and keep up the vids!

    Cool video, lot of "nostalgia" haha. Only thing I didn't catch you mention was Shuri? That was right there with Thanos as one of the more dominant decks I can think of. Being able to Shuri over here and double the power of a card slotted behind Cosmo was nuts.

  • @Zzzodiackillerrr

    @DLo_MD 3 месяца назад

    Zabu was the 1st thing that came to mind when I started watching this. Great trip around memory lane. Got me thinking about other cards as well... Aero, Lockjaw, Shuri. Anyway, I love all this talking about the game while not talking about general strategies per se. If that makes any sense.

    Nova absolutely needed its own spot. There was a race to get Nova when you hit series 2 cause everyone knew it was getting nerfed. It was just a matter of when. I think I got to enjoy it for about 7-10 days. Just enough to forever remember it.

    • @michaelbesser5348
      @michaelbesser5348 3 месяца назад +3

      I wholeheartedly agree. Original Nova is literally a 1 cost modern day Silver Surfer that worked on all of your cards. That legitimately sounds stronger to me than even 3/0 Devil Dino.

    @bananalord3882 3 месяца назад

    I listened to this during work and didn't have time to write this comment so now I do:
    I think it's an incredible shame that there isn't easy to access data for all the previous patches and OTAs that second dinner has made. As someone who loves data I'd love seeing it, and as someone who is fascinated by all the stuff that came before my time here I didn't even know about a lot of that Spiderman stuff so it is truly fascinating to hear about. A thing I was thinking about recently, is I wonder how many completely unchanged cards there are in marvel snap aside from the newer ones, and how many see play? A lot of destroy is pretty unchanged, nightcrawler. A super interesting one to me is nico, it really feels like for such an incredibly complex card they hit the nail right on the head in the very first try which is amazing to me.

  • @lukehall9948
    @lukehall9948 3 месяца назад

    Great content KM, good trip down memory lane. I remember Loki's release, I had to delete all my decks that card was insane, then Alioth came out at the end of that season and every game I played was a Galatus mirror or vs Loki who made the game a Galatus mirror. Turn 4 after a Wave become the focal point of every game i played, do I go for the Galatus?, or do i play Alioth to blow the oppenent out?, do I play Dr Doom to defend against my opponents Galatus/Alioth?, turns out Leader the best option. A lot of people hated that meta during that season but it was the most fun I ever had with this game. Then Elsa arrived....

    @Theghostofdirtyhall 2 месяца назад

    I think the reasoning Elsa being 1 is solid, but also ignores how literally game-changing Galactus was.
    I was also surprised that Zabu/Spider-Man was understated. That combo broke the game in the same way that Galactus did and with Moon Girl doubling, sometimes with the exact same intentions.

    @teke367 3 месяца назад

    "Subsidizing Power" very succinct way to describe the strength of cards that are (or verge) on broken. Not quite "Peak Surfer" but regarding the tech that deck could run, when Shadow King was 3 power, he was the strongest card in the deck, even over Surfer.

  • @chansky235
    @chansky235 3 месяца назад +1

    i agree that elsa was number 1 because she was so broken that *you cut the collector from loki*. that is bonkers when collector could easily get to 2-9, 2-15 if you loki'd loki or whatever. how do i hammer in how ridiculous that a card was so strong that optimal deck building cut a 2-9 from the deck.

  • @Yam_King
    @Yam_King 2 месяца назад

    Good video, Aero is missing in this list, was pretty broken too when she can moved all the cards. And a card that I never saw, because it was in the beta, from what I hear it was very broken, and it was Nova giving +2 to everything, reaching 14 points wide or more, thats wild.

    My favorite deck of all time was negative sera surfer.
    This deck was beyond busted!!! It had magik it had wong and then mystique to copy it or iron man or sera. Coupled with a brood, killmonger, bishop and ironheart. It was busted enough but then added to it was sera + original surfer + inversed cards from mr.negative + wong + Turn 7.
    You can see I loved this deck!!!
    Good ol times

  • @b3nnyg743
    @b3nnyg743 2 месяца назад

    I think OG shuri was very oppressive. It was the other competing deck with OG lockjaw thanos because you could have your first doubled unit behind a cosmo and the other behind an armor. Very hard to get over the top of at the time because they were both 28 power dudes and there’s very little reasonable tech. Most people resorted to storm goose just to stop the deck from playing cards at all.

    @vitorluiz7538 2 месяца назад

    I think if you revisit this video format, it would be good to delineate better each position. Make it a proper top 10 (still with the honorary mentions) which I think is a catchy theme for videos since it encourages comments to discuss their own picks; is an easy format to follow; and can serve to convey hyperbolic statements which drive the algorithm.
    TheDuelLogs is a channel that got popular doing top 10s in the Yu-Gi-Oh! space, so it might be worth checking it out as a reference. Although their visual style reminds me of… those amateur PowerPoint presentations with tons of different transitions and visual effects, it’s still popular. (I checked one or two videos recently and they do seem more joke-y than they were in the past, but that’s more of a scriptwriting thing than editing.)

    @joshuadickerson9176 3 месяца назад

    Original Prof X is certainly up there, especially in tandem with original Spider Man. Stand alone though? It’s most likely Zabu or even original Elsa Bloodstone. The Elsa pick may be a little recency bias but she was so good.

  • @louisfriend9323
    @louisfriend9323 2 месяца назад

    For the most part, i knew these cards were broken and why, except for the beta ones, when my region was not allowed to play. I did not hit infinite until after Loki, Zabu, Elsa, etc. were nerfed, I think it was with Shuri, thanks to the power of Chavez.
    I like the format, but its view count must be judged longer term compared to other videos.

      Of the "final turn slam the door" cards (Leader, Alioth, Aero), I honestly would make the argument that Aero was the weakest one. Which goes to show how rediculous the others were, but the point still stands.

  • @BrandonHeld-u6o
    @BrandonHeld-u6o 2 месяца назад

    It’s a quibble over how powerful is interpreted, but I consider Zabu far and away most powerful because of how it shaped the game. The 3/2 iteration was strongest but the 2/2 version that lasted far longer than probably all of these other cards combined dictated card creation. We are still living in a world of underpowered 4 energy cards and overstated 3 energy cards because of him.

    Elsa was great at her peak (and probably my personal favorite card that has ever existed) but there is no world in which she was better than Surfer/Zabu. Surfer was routinely a 3-27 or bigger and those Zabu decks were running Spiderman, Darkhawk, and Chavez. Then on top of that they would moon girl and then double Spidy, double Darkhawk.
