Marvel Snap Patch Notes – October 3, 2023

New Refresh Time

Daily and Weekly Refresh Times have been adjusted in this patch. The refresh time has shifted from 3 AM UTC to 7 PM UTC, which is a significant change of +16 hours. Please note that you may experience a one-time extension on countdown timers when updating to this patch.

Card Quality Preview

When browsing cards in the Shop, including Bundles, Daily Offers, and the Token Shop, players can now preview cards at any Quality Level, such as Epic, Legendary, Ultra, and more. This feature provides a better view of the cards you intend to acquire.

Earn Rare & Super Rare Avatars

Collector’s Reserves now have the potential to reward Rare Avatars, featuring art from Rare Variants, even for Variants you don’t own yet! Once you possess all Card Variants for a Rarity (e.g., all Super Rare Variants), you’ll have the opportunity to earn those Variant Avatars from the Premium Mystery Variant. Additional methods to acquire Rare and Super Rare Avatars are planned for the future.

Location Emoji Reactions

Express your emotions about Locations just like you do with Cards using Emoji Reactions. When viewing Location details by tapping on a Location, you can choose from three options: Starry-eyed, Shocked, and Angry.

News Feed Notification Pip

A red notification “pip” will now appear on the News Feed icon in the Main Menu whenever new items are listed in the News Feed. This feature keeps you updated on the latest in-game news.

Audio

Added sound effects (SFX) to Morbius.

Art & Visual Effects

Added visual effects (VFX) to Morbius.
Enhanced Cable’s VFX, which now draws the card from the top of the deck rather than the bottom.

Balance Updates

Card Updates

Mojo:
- [Old] 2/2 – Ongoing: If both players have 4 cards at this location, +6 Power.
- [New] 2/2 – Ongoing: If both sides here are full, +6 Power. Developer Note: This adjustment aligns Mojo with Dazzler’s mechanic, focusing on full locations instead of a specific number of cards. Further adjustments may follow for other characters in the future.
Uatu:
- [Old] 1/2 – Once this is in your hand, you can see the unrevealed locations.
- [New] 1/1 – At the start of the game, shows the right location to you. Developer Note: To make Uatu more relevant throughout the game, this change ensures that his effect functions regardless of whether you draw him early on.
Mantis, Cable, and Maria Hill:
- Various adjustments made to these cards to differentiate their effects and utility.

These changes aim to provide a more diverse and strategic card-playing experience.
