Board 8 > Marvel Snap Topic 14: Spidey's Kong Quest

(+) Yeah! (+)

It would discount if Titan said "cards that cost 6 cost 1 less" but then they'd cost 5 and not qualify and go back to 6 and create an infinite loop I guess.

I think that's because of that glitch that takes Pig to a certain base energy amount, then retroactively changes it to whatever the transformed card's energy was.

Pig is now a 0-cost. The cost gets added as an effect afterwards. It's not a glitch, it's intentional to make it avoid 4-cost card effects like Zabu.

What a stupid fucking day, whenever I'm not playing a move deck all I get is opponents that are playing move decks and getting nothing but locations that really bolster move decks, as soon as I switch to a move deck nothing but opponents that aren't playing move decks with locations that hinder move decks or are neutral on them, so switch back more move decks and move locations, switch again hindering and non move decks, switch again game just keeps saying fuck you IGCD.

Just lost 24 cubes in 3 games, you do the math on that

Lots of people still complain about High Evo, but Bounce is probably the best deck in the game now and nearly just as annoying to face

turn 5 wave wave wave wave wave wave

GG enjoy the free win

That might work in ranked, but in Conquest after one time theyll just expect it and unload everything they can before the last turn and then how do you turn it around? I dunno feels like Bounce is just very very good with few answers too

I play Bounce and I get bodied by Shuri decks

And now I got bodied by a Wong deck

The weakness of Bounce is that theres no room for any counterplay card except Spider-Ham. No Shang Chi, no Enchantress, no Rogue, no Wave, no Sandman, no Cosmo, nothing. I can pretty easily get 15-20 power on multiple lanes, but Im at their mercy if they can get 20-30 power on multiple lanes

But the only decks that can do that are Shuri and Wong

I feel like the biggest strength Bounce has is its best cards are extremely low energy cost relative to some other decks where you need high cost high power cards to come out somehow. This strength is even more impactful because those low cost cards can hit fairly high powers turning a lot of them into stuff like a 1/10 or a 2/12

Was up 8-2 on my first Infinity Conquest match, then it took me all the way to round 8 to finally beat them

They were using Valkyrie, a card I have not seen since Shuri nerf. And of course I was using Shuri. The final round I won was after they Spider-Manned my turn 5 Shuri, but I played Jeff there on turn 6. They knew I had that card by this point, but I think they thought me not having it in hand was their only chance, they were definitely behind that round.

Lost on Round 5 of that Conquest to a Destroy deck that got either Collapsed Mine or Rickety Bridge on 4 separate rounds

I swear they have boosted Mine and Bridge in conquest

Over the last 48hrs I've gone from 89.9 to 79, no matter what deck I play I've gotten nothing but locations that hinder my decks, the only wins I've gotten are from afk's and 1 cube retreats in the middle of the game.

Hit my timer and pulled Stature, guess now is when I start hoarding.

Do medals and conquest tickets expire when the new season hits?

yes, they turn into boosters

I got enough medals to get the GG variant thanks to that good Infinity run, probably won't have time to use up the rest of my tickets before rollover

Lmao I was getting beat by this guy with a cornball Wong/Mr. Negative deck with my Patriot Ultron deck that has only Storm as control and I kept fucking up everything by using Storm turn 6 on his Magik lane or by using Storm the moment he dropped Wong.

He rage quit before the last round. No respect to Wong players.

At a higher rate than buying boosters in the Medal Shop too, lol.

Wong is by far the least annoying archetype

Oh really? How many boosters per ticket?

You say that until you have to deal with Wong then Mystique/Ironheart or Gambit on one turn and Odin on the last.

He hasn't been played as much recently but he should always be disgraced.

Bro that shit is my bread and butter lol

Not sure about per ticket, but its 1:2 per Medal

So you can buy 35 Boosters for 250 Medals or just wait and convert 250 Medals to 125 Boosters at the end of the season

where do you see that? my searches tell me you'll get 15 boosters per 100 medals (which funny enough is still better than the 35 boosters for 250 but significantly worse than the 500 medals for 105 boosters)

Oh well youre probably right, my info is old

https://youtu.be/ooIsZZd8_Os

Now that their statlines and effects are official, I really only love Jean.

Phoenix Force will be very powerful but very niche except as a turn 6 counter to Shang Chi

Eh still better than nothing. Ill just have my medals convert and I guess convert my tickets to medals?

Both of those are Exodia combos that are extremely rare to actually pull off, especially Gambit. He very often discards Odin from your hand, basically guaranteed to if you play him after Wong.

It's also one of the few combos where anti-Ongoing AND anti-Reveal tech cards work against it. Run literally any 1 of those and you're fine. Rogue is my fav, especially if you have Doom in your deck.

Finally, it's the most telegraphed combo in the game. You get 3 whole turns to decide whether to retreat. Compare that to Galactus or Sera or Monkey T6 nonsense.

The real combo now is some combination of Negatived cards, Magik, and Zabu to play out Wong/Mystique/Gambit/Absorbing Man on the last turn

Took me a while to get that Ben Brode was doing a Hot Ones kinda thing, that's hilarious. The cards seem pretty cool overall!

Want:
Echo, seems very OP since it's not even a 2-sided effect, super versatile due to 1-cost
Mirage, effectively a 2/4 and can lead to tricky plays, maybe a fancier sort of Maria Hill?

Fun:
Legion, may or not get him, but even just playing against him should be interesting
Phoenix Force, could be used against Yondu in Galactus decks?

Ugh:
Jean Grey, a little bit more interesting than Morag but not really

Jean Grey and Echo are launching in Series 5

Legion and Mirage are launching in Series 4

want Band Wong & Grecke Deadpool

Of course the only anti-Ongoing card that cant be crippled to worthlessness by Cosmo is a pool 5 card

With Spotlight Caches, you can have a fair chance at her! They launch with Jean Grey a week from this coming Tuesday

I guess well see. It sounded like you get 1 of those per 120CL?

Correct

Its funny when you can win a match like this

I got a guy down to 1 cube and I had 10 left. It switched over to high stakes which was still costing me 2 cubes even though he had 1 left.

He bled me down to 4 before I got his last cube. It was silver but still come on man.

Yeah battle mode really needs to handle 1-2 cubes left better

Pulled MODOK today as my 3rd cache out of a new bucket of 40

Maybe now is when I should start hoarding for Spotlight Caches.

When do spotlight caches start?

I have 103 collectors caches in reserve, lol.

I've been opening all of mine since I want gold.

Yeah the Gold and the larger Token drops will keep me opening them as long as I can I think.

Please hurry up and tell us who is in the first week of this thing SD

now Im starting to question matchmaking targeting my deck

esp in conquest

it feels like my last 5 matchups were against decks specifically shitty for my decks to deal with

Made the absolute dumbest deck possible in order to get the play-6-cost mission asap. The name is a coincidence.
