I guess we’re really into the Marvel stuff today, eh? Fortunately, Deadpool & Wolverine has made it all trendy again, so maybe it will work out. Marvel Snap (Free) is rolling along with its latest season just fine and dandy, but the usual update drop today had a lot more than balance changes on offer. The new Alliances feature that has been discussed often in the past is now a reality! Also: balance changes on offer. Let’s go!
The big thing is as mentioned the new Alliances feature. Now you can group up with other players and work together towards common goals. Take on special missions and clear them to earn points for your Alliance, ultimately earning some nice extra rewards at the end of each week for your individual and collective performance. And hey, it’s nice to collaborate with other players for once.
The free Credits the game gives out are also seeing a slight change. Instead of 50 credits once per day, it’s 25 credits three times per day. More overall, but you’ll have to be checking in more. That’s how they get ya. Moon Knight has been given some cool visual and audio effects, and his ability now targets even-numbered Cost cards so that he isn’t quite so random. Uatu’s ability has been restored to its original power of letting you see all the locations at the start of the game. Shadow King’s ability has been slightly reworked to prevent cards like Luke Cage from stopping him. Other than some text changes to clarify the difference between Cost and cost, that’s about it for the tweaks.
And indeed, that’s about it for this particular update for Marvel Snap. The Alliances thing is a pretty big new feature, and I’m looking forward to more fully exploring it over the next few days. The other updates are fine. Nothing Earth-shaking, and really at this point I think it’s okay to take a break from that. Further nerfing Arishem can come another week. But what do you think of this update? Are you looking forward to joining an Alliance? Psyched to use Moon Knight now that he can’t accidentally spoil your whole strategy?
