Spider-Season Swings into 'Marvel Snap'

Marvel Snap's Amazing Spider-Season Swings In!

September brings a thrilling new season to Marvel Snap (Free), themed around everyone's favorite web-slinger and his amazing allies! This season introduces a game-changing mechanic: Activate abilities. Unlike "On Reveal," Activate abilities let you choose when to trigger a card's effect, offering strategic depth and counterplay options.

New Cards in Marvel Snap

The Season Pass card, Symbiote Spider-Man, is a prime example. This 4-cost, 6-power powerhouse boasts an Activate ability that lets you absorb the lowest-cost card at a location and copy its effects. This opens up exciting combos, particularly with cards like Galactus. Expect this card to be a major player (and potentially a target for future balance adjustments).

Let's look at the other new additions:

Silver Sable: A 1-cost, 1-power card with an On Reveal that steals 2 power from the top card of your opponent's deck. A solid card on its own, but even more effective in specific deck builds.
Madame Web: An Ongoing ability allows you to move one card at her location to another location once per turn. Expect tactical maneuvering and board control with this one.

Arana: Another 1-cost, 1-power card with an Activate ability. Activate her to move your next played card to the right and give it +2 power. A valuable addition to move-based strategies.
Scarlet Spider (Ben Reilly): A 4-cost, 5-power card with an Activate ability that spawns an identical clone at another location. Double the power, double the trouble!

This season also introduces two new locations:

Brooklyn Bridge: A classic Spider-Man location with a twist – you can't play cards there on consecutive turns, demanding creative deck building and strategic placement.
Otto's Lab: This location mirrors Otto Octavius's chaotic nature. Your next played card here pulls a card from your opponent's hand into play, adding an element of surprise and disruption.

New Locations in Marvel Snap

This Spider-themed season delivers exciting new cards and mechanics, promising fresh strategic possibilities. The Activate ability adds a new layer of complexity, and we can't wait to see what innovative deck strategies emerge. Stay tuned for our September deck guide! What are your thoughts on this season?
