Marvel Snap Swings into Action with Spidey-Season

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

September brings a new Marvel Snap (Free) season, and it's a web-slinging extravaganza! 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 flexibility and avoiding certain counter-strategies.

The Season Pass card, Symbiote Spider-Man, is a prime example. This 4-cost, 6-power card's Activate ability lets you absorb the lowest-cost card at a location and copy its effect – even triggering On Reveal abilities again! Expect this card to be a major player, potentially requiring a nerf later in the season.

Beyond Symbiote Spider-Man, the season introduces several other compelling cards:

• Silver Sable: A 1-cost, 1-power card with an On Reveal ability that steals 2 power from the top card of your opponent's deck.
• Madame Web: An Ongoing ability card that lets you move one card at her location to another location once per turn.
• Arana: A 1-cost, 1-power card with an Activate ability that moves the next card you play to the right and gives it +2 power. A strong addition to move-based decks.
• Scarlet Spider (Ben Reilly): A 4-cost, 5-power card with an Activate ability that spawns an identical clone at another location.

Two new locations also join the fray:

• Brooklyn Bridge: A location with the unique restriction that you can't play cards there on consecutive turns.
• Otto's Lab: The next card played here pulls a card from your opponent's hand into the location – adding an element of surprise.

This Spider-themed season introduces exciting new strategic possibilities with the Activate ability. Stay tuned for our September deck guide to help you navigate this thrilling new meta! What are your thoughts on the new season? Share your strategies and predictions in the comments!
