To me, my X-Men! Xavier's School for the Gifted is throwing open its doors to a whole new class of marvelous mutants, including - YOU! The X-Men take center stage in the latest season of Marvel Snap, Second Dinner's addictive, quick-hitting card battler.
The game's newest character is Esme Cuckoo, a clone of the White Queen Emma Frost with some unique telepathic abiltiies of her own. Her on reveal power copies a card from your deck into your hand, setting its cost to three and power to four.
Each week of the season a new member of the X-Men will join the Marvel Snap lineup. New Series 5 cards will launch as spotlight cards in the shop, and they will also appear in Season 5 Snap Packs. New Series 4 and 5 cards will remain in Snap Packs for the next two seasons. The previous month's Season Pass card will enter seasonal Snap Packs on Day 1 of the new season.
The X-Men are the main focus this season, but we'll get some other highly desired characters too. Captain Carter, the What If variant in which Peggy becomes Captain America instead of Steve Rogers, is now available.
Two new locations enter the fray as well. Pit of Exile prevents cards with power 10 or more from being played there. Keeping with a mutant theme, the nation of Genosha arrives. After Turn 5, everything but your highest cost card at this location gets destroyed. Decks that want to destroy their own characters will have a good laugh here.
Your favorite Snap Twitch streamers will have bonuses for you watching their content from May 6-13. You'll be able to earn 65 random boosters for watching two hours, a Penny Arcade border for watching four hours, and a Welcome Home card back for watching six hours of content. Excelsior!
