Marvel Snap Series Drop May 2023

Marvel Snap has confirmed the cards for the May 2023 Series Drop that happened with the patch. There was no previous announcement to warn players about these changes, and there were some deviations from the previous patterns. Check out the Card Acquisition Updates post for more related information regarding these changes.

The cards for the May 2023 Series Drop deviated based on the chronological order of card releases and previous Series Drops. Based on the Card Acquisition Updates post, the Series Drops will be more flexible going forward and will also depend on the power level of cards.

Knull and Darkhawk looks to be staying in Series 4 for a bit while longer, and to compensate four extra cards have been added to Series 3 earlier than usual.

Master Mold and Negasonic Teenage Warhead, were understandably not used much as it was not a popular candidate to be purchased as Series 5 card. More players will get a hold of them slowly, but the real use of them will start when they reach Series 3!

Remember, players will eventually get the First Edition Badge (not yet implemented in game) to these cards if you obtain them before they drop in Series.

Series 4 to 3

These cards will be offered as your free Series 3 card for the season after you update to the May 16th patch if you have not claimed it yet.

Remember, you can pin Series 4 cards and when the patch drops, their price will go down to 1,000 tokens so it won’t use up your free Series 3 card!
