Marvel Snap September 14 update patch notes: The Collector nerf Marvel SnapThe latest Marvel Snap update for September 14 includes some big nerfs to The Collector along with Shadow King buffs. The season of Loki is well underway, with the God of Mischief and Alioth already wreaking havoc on unsuspecting Marvel Snap players. However, Second Dinner has elected to trim some power off a long-time powerhouse in The Collector, who\u2019s gotten a boost when paired with Loki. But it\u2019s not all bad news for Dino deck and Discard deck players, as Spider-Ham, Shadow King, and Black Cat are also getting buffed this patch. Let\u2019s take a look at all the big changes being made in Marvel Snap\u2019s latest patch notes for September 14. The Collector finally faces nerfs Taneleer Tivan was already a strong addition to Devil Dinosaur decks as he ramps up with each card drawn from outside the player\u2019s deck, potentially reaching 8 or 9 power when played in combination with Nick Fury, Phil Coulson, and\/or Moon Girl. The Collector [Old] 2\/2 \u2013 When a card enters your hand from anywhere (except your deck), +1 Power. – [Change] 2\/2 -> 2\/0 – But with Loki, who can cheaply (only 3 cost) replace the player\u2019s with a copy of the opponent\u2019s starting hand, pairing him with The Collector can instantly get Tivan to 6 power at turn three! As a result, The Collector is having his base power drop from 2 to 0, meaning that Loki will only springboard him to 4 power when they\u2019re played in combination. However, it also likely means that we will see far less of Taneleer Tivan in those Devil Dino decks. Marvel Snap September 14 card balance updates The Collector wasn\u2019t the only card to get changes in the latest patch notes. Let\u2019s delve deeper into the other updates. Shadow King [Old] 3\/3 \u2013 On Reveal: Set all cards here to their original base Power. – [Change] 3\/3 -> 2\/3 – The recent surge in Shuri and The Collector has been good news for Shadow King, who is seeing play despite being relatively inefficient and occasionally reliant on revealing last. We decided to take a similar approach here to what we did successfully for Luke Cage and Invisible Woman, boosting his base rate to a level that players can justify playing in a wider range of strategies than Silver Surfer and Cerebro. We expect this will also relieve some of the pressure on Shang-Chi by diversifying the ways in which players can counter huge amounts of Power. Lady Sif [Old] 3\/4 \u2013 On Reveal: Discard the highest-cost card from your hand. – [Change] 3\/4 -> 3\/5 – Lady Sif is one of those cards that\u2019s always been solid and had a home in a couple specific decks, most obviously Apocalypse, Hela, and Agatha. However, her individual performance hasn\u2019t been stellar, and when a lynchpin card for so many decks isn\u2019t doing well, we like to poke at that a bit. We don\u2019t feel this will upend the metagame or anything, but pushing some medium-performance decks towards some time under the sun is one of the things we like to do via OTA, so let\u2019s try it out here. Spider-Ham [Old] 2\/2 \u2013 On Reveal: Transform the leftmost card in your opponent\u2019s hand into a Pig, keeping its Power and Cost. – [Change] 2\/2 -> 1\/1 – We suspected the change in last week\u2019s patch might be damaging to Spider-Ham\u2019s usage, but we weren\u2019t sure\u2013probably something like 65% sure, but that\u2019s a fair amount of doubt. Given we had an OTA coming just one week later, we decided to launch the patch with his 2\/2 stats, then buff to 1\/1 if that week indicated he needed the help. It did, so here we are. Black Cat [Old] 3\/7 \u2013 If you end the turn with this in your hand, discard it. – [Change] 3\/7 -> 4\/9 – Black Cat\u2019s been one of our weaker-performing cards for a long time. That might not be something we can fix with an OTA, but we\u2019ve played with this version enough ourselves to at least be interested in seeing what develops, especially with a couple future cards forthcoming. Yes, this makes you more likely to discard her than play her, but the only decks interested in Black Cat were already assuming you\u2019d be doing that. Increasing her Power makes that a better perk, and the number 9 is especially apt for the feline femme fatale.
