    I am someone who spends money on this game and can easily say that the weekend missions need to be more inclusive to F2P players. Win this many matches with 2 X-Men / Avengers / villains…..put 3 two cost cards in your deck…….just making them have variety with cards that everyone has access to would make it a lot better. And that way you aren’t going up against basically the same couple decks. But you know it’s all about money.

    Huge issue I have... Why can I not organize my decks?! This is a basic feature that needs to come soon. Also I stand by my comment last week; when passing a Spotlight cache in your track it should auto-collect it into a "bank" of sorts. Like in the top right corner it should be the spotlight symbol and how many you have available to open whenever you feel like it. It prevents me from having to keep endlessly scrolling to find where the hell they are on my track when I want to open.

    I think the issue they're having with Spectrum is buffing her without blowing up the new player experience. Odin manages to be decent in early collection levels with basically just White Tiger, Ironheart and Wolfsbane and still scales well as you get more On Reveal cards. Onslaught is similar. Spectrum doesn't scale so as your other cards get better, she gets worse by comparison and ends up not making the cut. However in low levels Spectrum decks are very legit and they might not want to throw the balance off.

      @shanedbunting ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I agree that she just doesn't have "it" . I put forth Spectrum ongoing: your other ongoing cards add 3 power.
      Edit
      Or make her non keyworded with something like " for each location that you have an ongoing card at give each ongoing card plus 1 power.
      And make her a 6/7

    I do think ladder has become very easy and i usually hit Infinite within a few days, where as I didn't Infinite the first few months I played. However, I don't think it's entirely bad that there isn't much of a challenge after hitting Infinite. I think it's nice that you can then start playing new decks since you aren't stressing the climb and feeling forced to play meta decks, especially now that Conquest exists. I think people often forget that it's ok to play casually just for fun and not want every game to be a sweatfest.

    • @PersonShot
      @PersonShot ปีที่แล้ว

      Even tho I hear you about it being nice hitting infinite fast, i completely disagree about your point about it being ok to play casually and for fun. If you want to play casually then you just don’t hit infinite and it’s totally fine, everyone deserves to enjoy the game the way they want. But making infinite so easy is not fair to people who do want it to be an achievement

    • @BatDad-qu4fo
      @BatDad-qu4fo ปีที่แล้ว

      @PersonShot I didn't say infinite should be easy or that you should be able to play casually and hit Infinite, I said I don't mind that there isn't a challenge AFTER hitting infinite. Alex mentioned that he doesn't play ladder after hitting Infinite because there is no challenge, so he just plays Conquest, which is understandable. My point was simply that it's fine to continue to play ladder casually for fun after you've hit infinite and play Conquest if you want more of a challenge. I didn't say ladder should be easy, and I'd be completely fine with them reducing bots so it became harder again. It does seem weird to disagree that it's ok to play a video game casually for fun though...

    I think the main issue with weekend missions is the way they warp the meta for two days.
    This weekend, my Marvel Snap experience was ~80% destroy mirrors. Knull was hands down the best card in the game all weekend.
    This is not fun or healthy for the game.

      I absolutely agree. For me, 150 gold is not enough to make me want to win 15 matches with a card I don’t really want to play. And since I’m not in infinite yet, I just played a counter deck. Devil Dinosaur with armor and cosmo in it. A Cable, who was a real MVP this weekend, stealing my opponent’s key cards.

    Marvel Snap 100% needs a free card rotation. For the week of the card spotlight it should be in a free card rotation along with 2 others that players who do not own them may use them during that week. It allows players both current and new to try out new cards and allows them to get a feel for themselves if they like the card than having to watch a video that tells them if it's good or not. It would also allow those players to finish weekend missions which in turn helps towards obtaining that card (if they're just a little bit off).

  • @banan9377
    @banan9377 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Regarding ranked not mattering, I'll do you one better: rank 91-100 doesn't matter. Once you hit 100 you get into post infinite where there's nothing to do, the only reward you get is a card back. I've hit infinite multiple times yet I've never used any of the infinite card backs recently, you don't need that many card backs, maybe the first few you get would be a cool feeling but after a few seasons of hitting infinite the card backs become worthless. I no longer see a point in grinding to infinite since all I get is a card back that I'll never use, so I only grind to 90 because at least you get 500 Gold which has actual value, but after hitting 90 I just shift to conquest which I think is the more fun game mode where you also get actual rewards. Even worst case the boosters you get from unspent medals and tickets still has a bit of progression value compared to a card back that you'll never use. Why bother grinding 10 more levels of ranked only for you to drop it immediately after and switch to conquest, when you can just stop at 90 and get to play the more fun mode faster.

    @bootersuncoast6410 ปีที่แล้ว

    You guys are right on with the airing of grievances. I don't understand the spotlight cache/series drop stuff either and it's my biggest complaint, along with the changes to collectors reserves.
    Right now, as of today, they have 14 series 4 cards and 16 series 5 cards. They're releasing 3 or 4 new cards every month outside the season pass week, so usually 3 cards but longer months they'll do 4. That's 30 cards they have for their rotation currently. Assuming a 4 week month as it's the most common, you only need 9 cards in the rotation to be "featured" as well as an option for the mystery s4/5 which is random. Each month, they're adding 4 or 5 additional cards to that listing including the season pass. I'm not sure how many months in the rotation they need to have saved up, but they could do what they have now for over 3 months and not run any repeats. Cards like howard the duck, snowguard, master mold should be dropped to S3 already. I won't get into the other issue of them keeping "good cards" like darkhawk and knull in S4 and not dropping as I think that's a separate problem, but we need to at least get the bad cards out of cache fodder.
    They should just change collectors reserves back to what they were before. Monetize variants and the money bundles is fine. It just feels like with this game every time we take 1 step forward, we take 2 steps back. It really would be nice if they could change that up.

    SNAPchat has made Mondays less shitty for sure (ive heard even Garfield is rethinking his stance on Mondays simply because of the power of friendship Cozy and Alex radiate during each episode)
    Anyways I've been playing a slightly modified version of Rocks & Hawks and have been winning pretty consistently. I teched in Armor (ofc for all the destroy decks) and another card that I forgot but it's essentially still cozys classic R&H deck.
    Ive gotten so many retreats when I drop armor on their bucky and Nova turn 2 or keep holding it until turn 5 or 6 and messing up their big Shuri/Nimrod or Zola play. It's tough being a marvel SNAP destroy enjoyer atm.
    Like you mentioned ive also been seeing more Galactus decks being used especially in conquest. Imo Galatus isn't the best deck for that mode unless you build it with other win conditions. However everyone I played who was using Galactus seemed to have blinders on and just kept trying to make Galactus go off even when I knew exactly what they were doing and could make plays or use tech cards to easily stop it from happening. After a few of these games I've decided to cook up a Galactus deck where he's just a surprise/hail Mary in the deck since therell be at least a couple other ways to win with the deck.

    Hey guys, I'm sure you didn't need it this way but I wanted to put it out there in case you weren't aware of how it came across. I'm a person who's been playing since November with the launch on mobile and I've never hit infinite, not once. I've gotten as high as 96 a couple of times and I own most of the cards so building a meta deck is usually not a problem for me. I don't know how to reconcile you all saying that infinite is super easy now and there's no veneer left when I'm sure that there's plenty more people out there just like me who for whatever reason cannot get over that hump. I'm sure that most of the replies to this comment are going to be along the lines of "Well just get good, scrub". I watch the snap chat every week and I will continue to watch the show because you two are beacons of positivity in the community, and I just wanted to let you know that it kind of came across like you all were saying that if you don't hit infinite then you're just a bad player.

We'll be sure to keep that in mind next time we have a conversation about the ranked system, because you're right, it isn't fair to say that "infinite means nothing" when there are people still striving towards it. You aren't a bad player, we just play too much I think lol :)

    3. Mega battles so you have 3 games with 3 different decks (no card over lap) and you have to win 2/3 games. It'll force you to play different decks and add more stakes.
    4. 1v1v1 with a shared location in the middle where all 3 can play there.
    5. A campaign where you fight the same (very hard) opponent who always plays the same cards in the same place (and aren't restricted by power and card draw) and you have to figure out to counter and beat them.
    6. Just different fun game modes

    I think every 3 seasons, Ladder should have a massive reset where everyone starts at 1.
    Just like in seasons in games like Diablo, Path of Exile, Destiny 2, they reset your progress every season (typically 3 months).

      Agreed I too have 30+ cards that need an upgrade and no credits. Also I have America Chavez 5 splits all shit and look similar, maybe because I'm a relatively new player and started playing in March this year

    I will die on the Orka hill. He’s helped take me to infinite the last two seasons. No one ever accounts for 16 power, and when used with Mr Fantastic, it’s 18 points in one lane with almost no hand tipping for the opponent.

    Climb to Infinite I usually just play what I find fun. Snapping and when to do so is what's important, not the deck. I made infinite my second month of playing and it was a Sub lvl 1000 deck.
    I will say this month was a quick climb playing discard the first week, but last month it took 2 weeks and I switched up decks a lot on the way.

    As someone who has only hit Infinite once since launch, I feel like getting there is made out to be a lot easier than it actually is. However, I do think that the reward system in the ladder needs to be restructured now that we have Conquest.

    @the_flash_v9840 ปีที่แล้ว

    Personally, I think the top decks will always be decks that can run answers.
    Typically, I'm finding for a conquest run. You need 1 answer in your deck for your opponents. Which means if you cant go vertical you MUST have Shang, but you also need Enchantress, Cosmo or Rogue because of the amount of Wong decks right now.
    I'm not seeing a lot of destroy, which makes me favor Rogue for those Zabu/Dark Hawk match ups but it is very much a risk.
    I think other decks will become relevant if they allow us to side deck during conquest. Even if they cap it to siding out 2 cards, and your side deck is a selected 5 cards during your deck build.
    Might make it "too competitive" because you'll be able to main deck full throttle and then side out for the 2 answers you need.

    When I play marvel snap, it feels genuinely like a game first, then “mobile” game second. I say it like that because it doesn’t feel like the cliché pay to win game because it honestly doesn’t feel like that and I love that about Marvel snap. What breaks that immersion and reminds me of that reality are the weekend missions. Using cards people may or may not have and incentivize them to get those cards via spotlight caches instead of saving hurts the player base because there’s no alternative to the rewards from them. Credits is something anyone can get, but now with the scarcity of tokens and especially gold, locking the majority out of that AND making them take a long time to complete turns me and a lot of others off to the idea. The need to be shorter and instead of cards like Nimrod, use series 3 cards that anyone can get.

    Infinite is fine as it is. The rewards could use a change though for sure but with the removal of so much stuff out of caches infinite even being a slow climb needs to be attainable by many. Not just the top 10% that’s what conquest was made for.

  • @kelarax
    @kelarax ปีที่แล้ว

    I've been playing since Global launch last October, and have YET to hit Infinite. I was watching Molt the other day on Twitch, and I told him I'm convinced I'm just a bad player, and make a ton of misplays. Like, I'll be on a hot streak, and then just straight up TANK down. The highest I've hit is 89. I thought for sure last season or the season before I was going to hit Infinite, and then I just had a string of bad luck. I went from 85ish, all the way back down to the high 60's. I got so frustrated. And I'm playing "meta" decks too (minus a few cards like Legion, Silk). My most consistent deck that I've been playing is Mirage Control.

  • @Plushmellow
    @Plushmellow ปีที่แล้ว

    I think the first few games of each season have more bots, to help you get back to the rank you were at previously. I routinely get bots all the way from 70 to 100 each season but when I helped my friend get to infinite for the first time, we didn’t face a single bot all the way from 70 to 100.

    There a tons of bots on the ranked ladder between 70-100. Rushed to Infinite by farming 4 or more cubes from them. I understand that the bots are needed due to cube economy, but I kinda feel like there are a tiny bit too much bots.

    I was getting worried that no series drop since May wasn't going to be brought up. I'm honestly a bit upset because Jeff came out and I overlooked it in the old system. I thought they were gonna drop him relatively soon. I thought there's no way he stays in the same tier as Galactus, High Evo, and Thanos who totally redefine what cards you can play and who wipe planets out in the lore. But nope, Jeff has stayed series 5 the whole time and now I have to either get new cards that breathe new life into old archetypes or get Jeff now that the control meta isn't running rampant.

  • @tylerseale1684
    @tylerseale1684 ปีที่แล้ว

    I very much disagree with just changing weekend missions from "win" to "play". I agree with Cozy with the Star Lord mission being cool when it came up, and it wouldn't have been as cool if it was just "play". the "Win" clause isn't that hard, but it helps push people to play the card for real.
    That said, I agree that weekend missions suck. They need a rework for sure.
    Also, I was unaware that the weekend mission timer was crunched so I ended up losing resources expecting to wrap them up like normal from that 48-72 hour range.

    I'm going to disagree with you guys about ranked. I think it and the rewards for it are fine (of course wouldn't say no to more rewards) and anyone who puts the time into the game should be able to reach infinite and receive those rewards. The difficulty should come from climbing the leaderboard once you reach infinite and then rewarding the players who reach, for example, top 5 each season with a cosmetic. Similar to how players who play enough can get all the rewards in conquest but only the best can get the avatar border.

    I might be the only person who actually likes the Weekend Missions (at least in concept.) I like that they are hard and take some interesting deck design. Their regular "Hard" missions are such a joke, so I like a real challenge once in a while.
    However, I will agree that I wish they came with a better reward. Grinding for just 100 gold seems a bit off. And i wish it never involved the season pass card or the new release card. It kind of defeats the purpose of getting more people to play on the weekend when you focus in the challenges to something only a certain percentage of the players can even attempt.

    • @kurtvalentine4433

      Weekend missions is actually not that hard. The problem is the rewards sucks. Ot only do you need specific cards to get gold or the collectors the amount you get is displeasing. I try get it none the less if i have the cards to do so. Every little bit helps in the long run until they stop being so greedy for our money. That will never happen

    I wonder if they will ever be able to add another ability-less card for HE/Patriot or if the current cards are the only ones that will exist.
