as if Hela decks weren't already running Luke Cage so this is pretty much just a buff for her

Hela
[Old] 6/6 - On Reveal: Resurrect all cards you discarded to random locations with -2 Power.
[New] 6/7 - On Reveal: Resurrect all cards you discarded to random locations with -3 Power.
Helas seen a resurgence in popularity with Hellcows change to Activate and Black Cats buff to 10 Power. While her win and cube rates havent been out of line, this change has strengthened the deck by making it easier to resurrect more Power with less risk than before, which can feel frustratingly difficult to contest for many decks. Were taking some additional Power away from the resurrected cards as a bit of compensation for this added strength, but balancing it a touch with more Power for Hela.

Marvel Boy
[Old] 3/2 - After each turn, give 3 of your 1-Cost cards +1 Power.
[Change] 3/2 -> 3/1
Ever since Marvel Boys release, Zoo decks with tons of 1-Cost cost cards have been riding high. Were glad to see this deck back in contention at the top of the metagame, but the games with an early Marvel Boy tend to put up some particularly strong numbers. Were making a slight ding here to make it a little bit easier to challenge the Zoo deck for multiple locations, given how often Gilgamesh can win them one.

War Machine
[Old] 4/7 - Ongoing: Nothing can stop you from playing cards anywhere.
[Change] 4/7 -> 4/6
With the recent change from an On Reveal ability to an Ongoing one, War Machine has really taken off. Were excited to see the decks with Ebony Maw and The Infinaut that players have been perfecting for a long time finally get their day in the sun. However, War Machines win rate has been among the highest in the game, and a lot of that has been in decks focusing on using Storm and Legion to deny the opponent any turn 6 plays. Those decks have a place, but because they can be frustrating to play against repeatedly, we don't want them headlining the metagame. We're taking War Machine down a peg by removing Power, since that recent buff turned out a bit stronger than expected.

Symbiote Spider-Man
[Old] 4/6 - Activate: Merge your lowest-Cost card here with this. Copy its text like it just revealed.
[Change] 4/6 -> 4/7
Youve all found a ton of awesome things to do with Symbiote Spider-Man, from retriggering Doctor Doom to safeguarding the Power of Human Torch. But a lot of those strategies have been a bit inconsistent, and when they dont pan out, Symbiote Spider-Man has been underdelivering on board presence. To ensure those cool things are less risky, we want to raise the floor so that Symbiote Spider-Man contributes a meaningful amount of Power the rest of the time.

Galactus
[Old] 6/5 - On Reveal: If youre winning this location and this is your only card here, destroy all other locations.
[Change] 6/5 -> 6/6
Galactuss stats have been lagging as weve added more 3/5s to the game, and weve been looking at buffing him for a while. One reason we waited was that we were wary of his interaction with Symbiote Spider-Manour internal testing didn't reveal this to be problematic, but we can't ever know we've "solved" a deck for sure. Now that weve seen the potential to create a higher-Powered Galactus hasnt proven too frequent and frustrating in the real world, were comfortable boosting Galactus up as wed hoped to.

Negasonic Teenage Warhead
[Old] 3/2 - After an enemy card is played here, destroy it. (once per game)
[Change] 3/2 -> 3/3
Negasonic Teenage Warhead has been in a similar boat, to a smaller degree. Resetting her ability with Symbiote Spider-Man has the potential to blow up a lot of Power, but it's proved easy enough to adapt to Symbiote Spider-Mans looming combos. So we're giving Negasonic the Power she needs to perform better on her own.

Black Panther
[Old] 5/4 - On Reveal: Double this cards Power.
[Change] 5/4 -> 5/5
Black Panther has long been one of the most exciting "combo cards" in Marvel SNAP. The combo is awesome and has the potential to take over games with the likes of Wong and Arnim Zola. We think thats a cool deck as long as theres enough counterplay to it, so buffing Black Panther should help the deck compete when it doesnt draw enough of the full combo, albeit making the combo easier to stop preemptively with Shang-Chi. That's good, on the off chance this buff makes such a deck too prevalent.

Kraven
[Old] 2/2 - When a card moves here, this gains +2 Power.
[Change] 2/2 -> 2/3
Weve been glad to see all the experimentation around new move decklists with Madame Web and Araa, but the rising tide hasnt lifted all boats. Kraven has struggled to compete with Madame Web asking to be played on the same turn, so we wanted to give him a little extra Power to keep the decision interesting and hopefully prompt even more diversity among move builds.

Hercules
[Old] 3/4 - The first time another card moves here each turn, move it to another location.
[Change] 3/4 -> 3/5
Hercules has similarly been struggling to make a major contribution to move decks. When the setup is just right he does amazing things, knocking cards like Human Torch and Vulture back and forth between his location and Madame Webs. But when that doesnt pan out, hes not contributing enough. Given we've just introduced some fun new movement cards to the mix that have room for more strength, were happy to give Herc some extra Power.

Patch Out

Black Swan
[Old] 3/5 - On Reveal: Until the end of next turn, your 1-Cost cards cost 0.
[New] 2/3 - Activate: Until the end of next turn, your 1-Cost cards cost 0.
We revealed earlier that Black Swan and Hellcow would be changing to Activate as a bit of an experiment in seeing how the mechanic could be used to freshen up some older cards where On Reveal wasn't quite getting the job done. We didn't reveal that doing so would also come with some stat updates. Making an effect an Activate can be riskier, because it requires playing the card earlier in the game to time it properly. For Black Swan that's extra true, because playing Swan on turn 5 still won't be fast enough to get the Cost reductionremember, Activate resolves with your other plays, so you can't activate for a same-turn Cost discount. So we're dropping the Cost to ensure more opportunities to get Black Swan into play. It's possible this update won't land Black Swan in a better position, and we're open to a reversion in that case. However, the risk seemed appropriate given Black Swan has been languishing on multiple metrics.

Hellcow
[Old] 4/8 - On Reveal: Discard 2 cards from your hand.
[New] 4/6 - Activate: Discard 2 cards from your hand.
So if we moved Black Swan down to 2-Cost, why are we shrinking Hellcow? Well, not all effects are created equal! Being able to time the discard on Hellcow makes it substantially stronger than the On Reveal in a couple of key ways, not the least of which is you can now curve Hellcow into MODOK without risking losing your MODOK. To reflect that shift in strength, we weakened Hellcow a little bit while we see how strong it proves to be.

Sword Master
[Old] 3/7 - On Reveal: Discard a card from your hand.
[New] 3/7 - On Reveal: Discard an odd-costed card from your hand.
Similar to how we updated Moon Knight, we've decided to create an alternate option with Sword Master. We did debate changing the statsand yes, it does look weird that Moon Knight is a 3/3 and Sword Master is bigger. However, in addition to discarding an enemy card, Moon Knight just has more and stronger synergies: Apocalypse, Proxima Midnight, Stature, and even Wolverine. Sword Master has X-23, Ghost Rider, and maybe a different kind of Hela deck? Given the gap and our Sword Master decks not feeling too scary, we decided to wait and see rather than preemptively adjust the Power down.
