Iron Patriot - this is really easy to play and should feature heavily. Its combination with Victoria Hand in particular is great, but also just as a 2 drop you can easily play on 2 and maybe even bait plays etc. However it isn't an instant "game winner" so I expect the pre opinion is too high

safetyblade.bsky.social•58 days ago

Which is why my number one is the silly card. Activate on discard was strong with Hell Cow (I actually suspect that card is still "good"but just outclassed) and this one target Scorn and Swarm. Discard is already super powerful and this can give you multiple ""Gambit"" like effects, its busted.

Moonstone is the first card I think is overrated but fun and should be strong in the right decks. 4 energy is why, it's harder to combine than it might seem and clashes with some slots. Likely best in a generic ongoing deck but only lifts that too playable? Tribunal will be fun but tricky.

The reason this ranks 3rd is only because Iron Patriot doesn't require real build around. This does. However it can come down on 6 and add the buff, thats big, but it also REQUIRES you play the generated cards. This will hold it back more than it seems.

This is actually trash in anything that isn't Surtur and 10 power cards and even then, its just, bad? You can play 10 power without working for 4 energy.

Maybe in mill decks? Once your opponent’s deck is gone it’s a guaranteed 4/12.

I think there is a place for it as a secondary win condition in Darkhawk deck.

I think your list is spot on, but I personally would switch Ares and Moonstone.

If it buffs Swarm like the card language suggests, it could go very well with Bullseye in classic discard.

This seems like an investment card. On a long enough timeline, more qualifying cards will be released and raise this ones stock. Otherwise, C6?

hardcasual.bsky.social•58 days ago

I'm skeptical about this card. Generally in marvel snap, simplicity wins the day. Raw stat cards are the big performers and the safe bets, and this is a card we are hoping to high roll. Also missing an immediately apparent home.

How did your predictions perform this season?

safetyblade.bsky.social•58 days ago

Yeah I was good

1. Galacta
2. Doom 2099
3. Rocket Racoon and Groot
4. Peni Parker
5. Luna Snow
...
6. my personal favorite - Lasher

dinomorose4000.bsky.social•58 days ago

Seems about right. I wasn’t interested in Bullseye until I got Scorn in a spotlight cache so now I’m thinking hmmmm.

safetyblade.bsky.social•58 days ago

Pretty sure I was spot on but can't remember if I had RR and Groot behind Peni

scosco.bsky.social•58 days ago

I think I am going to end up getting all of them. There's a chance I don't play Moonstone enough and end up regretting it. Also, Bullseye I might not play enough but idc because he's looks fun to build around and that's all I truly care about.

safetyblade.bsky.social•58 days ago

I'm still all in on every card for a few months so I'm happy with the average level of interesting this month

scosco.bsky.social•58 days ago

I think that's a good way to describe it. Interesting enough, nothing crazy (thankfully)

thesaavedra.bsky.social•58 days ago

Bullseye is my number 1 must have. Vic should be good too. Begrudgingly I want Moonstone since it’s the only week where I can get a secondary card (Nocturne) with my keys. 🤷‍♂️

safetyblade.bsky.social•58 days ago

Moonstone is the card I'm actually most excited for favorite actual character of the bunch and I was big into ongoing combos for a long time

thesaavedra.bsky.social•58 days ago

Oh I know it’ll be great I’m just hoping I can budget the keys correctly haha the ongoing combo potential is going to pay off for months to come.

safetyblade.bsky.social•58 days ago

It's also very much a me card where I can do tricky combos etc. And feel big brain

migz-in-space.bsky.social•58 days ago

I'm with you on this. I'm here for the Bullseye hype train. I think Hell Cow can allow you to still play some Swarms on T6. Hell Cow plus additional discard can easily multiply the hand again for Bullseye proc. Unfortunately Luke Cage is gonna make the card "fall flat" during release week

safetyblade.bsky.social•58 days ago

Yeah release week will suck, turn 3 gambit hitting Luke Cage though everytime
