Marvel Snap’s contents of the Spotlight Caches for the Avengers vs. X-Men (starting March 6, 2024) Season has been revealed! Each week, three cards will be featured in the Spotlight Caches, and their corresponding Spotlight Variants if you have already collected the card. We recommend that you carefully choose the cards you want, and save up at least four Spotlight Caches to open to get your desired card. So take a look at the Spotlight Cache card release schedule below, and plan ahead!
You will also be able to find the full Spotlight Cache release schedule for past, current, and upcoming months in our dedicated new card release guide:

Week of March 5, 2024
| Card | Series | Variant |
|---|---|---|
| Pixie | 5 | PANDART |
| Mobius M. Mobius | 4 | Chibi |
| Spider-Ham | 4 | David Nakayama |
Kicking off this month is one of the wildest cards Marvel Snap has seen in a while! Pixie looks like a fun mix-up to the Mister Negative style of decks. She works perfectly with Mobius M. Mobius to ensure your cards don’t increase in coat, but only decrease! What’s great is Mobius is also available to pick up this week, though he also counters Pixie if your opponent plays him against you.
Spider-Ham also makes a return this week! He works great as a low cost disruption tool that can sometimes single handedly win a game if he bonks the right card!
All in all, this looks like a week that may start dull due to Pixie‘s counter being available at the same time she is, but may end up being a ton of fun once players stop teaching against her.
Week of March 12, 2024
Note: Ghost-Spider has been swapped for Ms. Marvel, and will be reflected after the patch on March 12, 2024.
| Card | Series | Variant |
|---|---|---|
| Mockingbird | 5 | PANDART |
| Ghost-Spider | 4 | Derrick Chew |
| Man-Thing | 4 | Frank Brunner |
For our second Spotlight Cache rotation of the month, we get a unique set of card abilities! Mockingbird, Ghost-Spider, and Man-Thing are all available this week! While Man-Thing has seen very little competitive play, Ghost-Spider is a key piece in several combo decks and move decks.
Mockingbird also premieres this week, and she looks like a sleeper great card! She should interact well with tokens, making a card like Squirrel Girl alone reduce her to a 3 cost! She definitely should be at least a fun card to experiment with, if not shake up the meta. Definitely an exciting week!
Week of March 19, 2024
Note: Ms. Marvel has been swapped for Ghost-Spider, and the variant has been changed for Kitty Pryde and Ms. Marvel. This will be reflected after the patch on March 12, 2024.
| Card | Series | Variant |
|---|---|---|
| Cannonball | 5 | PANDART |
| Ms. Marvel | 5 | Jorge Molina |
| Kitty Pryde | 4 | Hellfire Gala |
Cannonball flies in as the new card this week! He looks like a better Stegron in every way. Even if you move 1 Power out if a lane, replacing the card with a rock is a great way to add value to Movement. It even potentially allows you to move Vision or Jeff the Baby Land Shark and clog the lane behind then so they can’t move back!
The supporting cards this week are a mixed bag. Kitty Pryde is a fun card that got butchered from nerfs to herself and surrounding cards like Angela and Elsa Bloodstone. Second Dinner promised a buff to Elsa in the upcoming patch. Hope Summers also works well with kitty to retrigger the extra enegy each turn. Will this change bring Kitty back to the meta?
Ms. Marvel, on the other hand, is a solid meta card that has remained relevant since her release. While her popularity may come and go, her strength is nearly unmatched at a 4/14!
Week of March 26, 2024
| Card | Series | Variant |
|---|---|---|
| War Machine | 5 | PANDART |
| Silk | 5 | Tim Tsang |
| Silver Samurai | 4 | Gianluca Gugliotta |
Closing out this week is the premier of an iconic hero, War Machine! His ability looks to simply be a tech card against Lockdown metagames and oppressive Locations. Basically, all of your cards can go where Jeff the Baby Land Shark goes for 1 turn. Pretty niche if you ask me. After reading how the card works from developers, this card looks much better than I anticipated! With his ability to let you play any card anywhere, you can play Infinaut without skipping, Ebony Maw After turn 3, or Cull Obsidian without a 1-cost card. This opens up a ton of deck building possibilities and is very exciting to experiment with!
Silk and Silver Samurai return this week as well – though both are fairly unfavored in the current meta! Silk, while good on stats, hasn’t seen much play besides Cerebro-5 after Angela‘s nerf. Silver Samurai never caught traction in the popular Discard lists.
