Oh, SNAP! 🙄 While *Marvel Rivals* is busy actually, you know, being a *game* with Emma Frost, *Marvel Snap* is desperately clinging to relevance by throwing more X-Men into the digital card abyss. Because what this game REALLY needed was *more* mutants, right? 🙄
Summer is apparently code for “we’re recycling old ideas again!” as *Marvel Snap* gears up to unleash another season of… well, more cards. And guess what? They’re mutants! 🤯 Specifically, Esme Cuckoo, one of the five (count ’em, FIVE!) telepathic Stepford Cuckoos. Because one Emma Frost wasn’t enough, apparently. Now we need her cloned quintuplets cluttering up our digital decks. 🤦♀️
This “powerful” new card lets you copy a card from your deck, then nerfs it by making it a 3/4. Genius! 👍 Who needs strategy when you can just randomly pull a card and make it mediocre? It’s the *Marvel Snap* way! Behold, the glorious addition to your already overflowing collection:
But wait, there’s more! Because one lackluster card isn’t enough to justify a whole season, *Marvel Snap* is blessing us with a whole host of other Series 5 cards, each more underwhelming than the last. Prepare to be amazed (or, more likely, mildly inconvenienced) by:
- Surge [2/2]: On Reveal: Makes the top card of your deck worse, then does it again. Because who needs consistency when you can gamble on random card buffs? 🎲
- Prodigy [3/4]: Basically Surge, but slightly different. Because innovation is hard. 😴
- Elixir [2/3]: Revives a card destroyed last turn. Great, now you can bring back your trash cards! 🎉
- Xorn [2/3]: Moves 3 or 4-cost cards to another location. Because sometimes you just want to screw over your opponent (and yourself). Chaotic neutral, baby!😈
But the fun doesn’t stop there! 🥳 These Series 5 cards will be drip-fed to you weekly through the card shop, because *Marvel Snap* loves nothing more than to squeeze every last penny out of your wallet. 💰 And don’t forget about the Seasonal Series 5 SNAP Packs, because who *doesn’t* love gambling for cards they’ll probably never use? 🎰
And just when you thought it couldn’t get any better, *Marvel Snap* is adding *two* new locations! Because what this game *really* needed was more RNG.
- The Pit of Exile: No cards with 10+ power allowed! Because big numbers are scary. 🥺
- Genosha: Resets the board after turn 5! Because who needs strategy when you can just throw everything at the wall and see what sticks? 🤪
For more information on this groundbreaking new season, head over to the *Marvel Snap* website (if you dare). You can also check out the latest patch notes and balance changes, because apparently, this game needs constant tweaking to stay afloat. 🚑 And if you’re struggling to climb the ranks, don’t worry! We have a list of “ten deck builds to try,” which will probably be outdated by the time you finish reading this article. 🤷♀️ Good luck, and may the odds be ever in your favor (spoiler alert: they’re not). 🍀
