Swing Into ‘Marvel Snap’ With The Amazing Spider-Season

Marvel Snap's Amazing Spider-Season Swings into Action!

September brings a thrilling new season to Marvel Snap (Free), themed around everyone's favorite web-slinger and his extensive rogues gallery! 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.

The Season Pass card, Symbiote Spider-Man, exemplifies this new mechanic. A 4-cost, 6-power powerhouse, he activates to absorb the lowest-cost card at his location and copies its abilities, even triggering "On Reveal" effects again! Expect some seriously fun (and potentially overpowered) combos.

Beyond the Season Pass, several other exciting cards join the fray:

• Silver Sable: A 1-cost, 1-power card that steals 2 power from the top card of your opponent's deck upon reveal. A sneaky addition to any deck.
• Madame Web: An Ongoing ability card that lets you move another card at her location once per turn, creating tactical repositioning opportunities.
• Arana: A 1-cost, 1-power card with an Activate ability to move the next card you play to the right and boost its power by +2. A must-have for move-based strategies.
• Scarlet Spider (Ben Reilly): A 4-cost, 5-power card with an Activate ability to create an identical clone at another location. Prepare for power duplication mayhem!

Two new locations add further strategic complexity:

• Brooklyn Bridge: A classic Spider-Man location with a twist: you can't play cards there on consecutive turns.
• Otto's Lab: This location mirrors Doctor Octopus's cunning: your next played card draws a card from your opponent's hand onto the location, introducing an element of surprise.

This Spider-themed season delivers a potent mix of new cards and a game-changing mechanic. The Activate ability opens up exciting new strategic possibilities, and the new cards offer unique and powerful gameplay options. Are you ready to embrace the chaos? Let us know your thoughts and deck-building plans in the comments! Our September deck guide is coming soon to help you navigate this web of new cards.
