Features

Card Shop Updates!

• Featured Sets
  • Featured Sets are a new offering in the Card Shop that feature limited-time
    combinations of individual Cards, Variants, and/or Featured Snap Packs. Want to
    crack open a Pack of Variants? Sure! A pack of Destroy cards, you got it! A pack
    of X-Men cards, sure thing bub! You can even purchase a featured single card or
    Variant directly for Tokens. Remember that you can always view the full contents
    of any Snap Pack by clicking on it.
• Bonus Card Protection
  • This adds triggers to a Snap Pack’s “goodie” drop table so that after a certain
    number of goodie rolls, a bonus base card(s) is guaranteed.
  • Bonus Card Protection only exists for base cards granted by goodie rolls, and
    does not exist for any other reward types in a pack’s goodie drop table.
  • Each individual goodie roll counts towards triggering an eventual guaranteed
    bonus card.
• Snap Pack Booster Matching
  • When players open a Snap Pack, if they earn Boosters from their “goodie rolls”,
    those Boosters will match the new card. This will help kickstart players’ Character
    Mastery journey.
• Improved Red Pips
  • The red pips in the Card Shop should be clearable and working more as
    expected!

Gameplay

Grand Arena – Coming July 24th – Aug 7th

• This brand new limited time game mode lets players choose one of eight Champions to bring into the Grand Arena to battle for Glory. Players can either use the Champion’s preconstructed deck, whether they own the cards or not, or build their own. Mole Man and Mad Thinker will be available as rewards during the event!
• Each Champion card starts in your hand, and brings with it a brand new skill card to synergize with its core strategy. Invoke the Council of Reeds with Mister Fantastic or show up for Clobberin’ Time with The Thing First Steps.
• This game mode will be available between July 24th and August 7th, with the shop open until August 9th.
• Stay tuned for more details as we get closer to the event.
