  12. My favorite recent ridiculous location setup I had lately was Sanctum Sanctorum (no cards can be played), Altar of Death (kills cards played there), and Westview (changes on turn 4) that turned in to another Altar of Death (sadly opponent was playing a destroy deck so had to retreat)

  18. I attended this stream viewing without having watched the Julia introduction. I followed some parts better than others. I watched the Julia VOD later that day and within 24 hours I started playing. I just hit collection level 200 yesterday (so like, 5 days). Thaaaaaanks Jacob, Nathan, and Julia!

  19. OK laughing at myself, was thinking "what are all these cool monochrome variants Nathan is running" for way too long before realizing that was just Mr. Negative's visual effect

  24. Yup I got into Marvel Snap thanks to these last two streams. Honestly having a good time so far, so instead of blaming you guys, I am going to thank you for giving me something chill to play during my down time 🙂

  37. I'm sick, don't have my glasses on, and don't know anything about this game so I'm just lying on the couch with a headache and listening to Jacob and Nathan talk nonsense. It's perfect.

  38. Ive found that when you play with bots (or just rookie players i guess) they often keep playing a lane that you have already given up. Like the first game Jacob played. The left lane was pretty much abandoned. Jacob knew he wouldnt win there. So he prioritized the middle and right. But the Bot just kept stacking cards onto left lane. So weird

  42. I've been playing since the Jacob and Julia Snap stream, and i can say that it is pay-to-win, just more subtly so and a bit less egregiously so than many mobile games.
    It's likely not such a problem if you've been playing for a while and aren't behind on unlocking new cards because you just started playing in the last month, but for a new player, the progression system is designed so that it feels good and fair for like a month, and then you hit a new "pool" of cards to slowly, arduously unlock, but now you're matched up against people with those cards already, stomping you with decks you simply can't build or compete with. And this is clearly a deliberate manipulation tactic, which is clear because there's now a $100 purchase advertised as being for new players to become competitive right away by skipping the long, slow process of unlocking those cards.
    Furthermore, the season pass can, depending on the new card in question, be all but necessary to be truly competitive, as if you don't buy it to get the new card, you won't have it for a month. And the last two season pass cards have been amazing for a lot of different kinds of decks. You'll see them in a good half of your games, i'd wager, and they will be appreciably improving those decks they're in.
    So i think it's mistaken to call the game not pay-to-win, and also disingenuous to say it's not pay-to-win because you can unlock everything for free "eventually." By that logic, Diablo Immortal isn't pay-to-win because given 25,000 hours of play you could unlock everything — or maybe you couldn't, i dunno, but the point remains, time-gating can be pay-to-win. And is definitely psychologically manipulative.
    And the argument that it's not pay-to-win because paying is "inefficient" is even weaker. Inefficient compared to what? Yes, it's prohibitively expensive to buy credits with gold, and yes they time-gate how much you can buy in a day… except now they don't because that $100 purchase bypasses that time restriction and just gives you a bunch of credits that would take like a month to earn. But in either case, you're exchanging money for new cards, which would otherwise be painstakingly unlocked, with next to no control over which you get and win, over many weeks, and those cards will make your decks better and let you make new, more competitive decks.
    And the statement that you can't unlock cards for money, well, they immediately admit that's false. But also, those packs aside, you still can. Just not specific cards you choose. But you can unlock credits for money. Which gets you cards. That you're not choosing the specific cards i'd argue is even worse as it just encourages paying more until you get the cards you want. The randomization is very… well, CCG or gacha game, fittingly enough. The way they mask it by not having normal booster packs is just that; a mask. It's no better than any other card game, and worse than some.

  43. It´s very funny just listening to this without knowing marvel snap and not actually looking, "I´m gonna debuff the lizard" "Does Hulk go in Tinky?" 😀 I use Drawfee/SSS as friend noises everyday and sometimes I have to stop what I´m doing and go look what the hell is going on 😀

  47. Sorta sad this incredibly predatory game is touted as some great achievement :
    Yeah, you can't pay to unlock the cards you want, all you can do is pay to gamble to unlock what you want, which is way way worse.
