Marvel Snap Favorite Card Variant Feature Improvements Coming

0

Marvel Snap developer Ben Brode explains how favoriting a card variant can help with sorting, and how Second Dinner plans to improve the feature.

Second Dinner’s Ben Brode offers details about Marvel Snap‘s feature for selecting a favorite card variant, how it works, and that improvements are on the way. The variant system in Marvel Snap is a clever and rewarding idea, as players can collect both base versions of cards and variants, much like how Marvel comic books have variant cover art. Other than the art, the cards are exactly the same. It’s easy to get a lot of cards and variants, though, which is why Marvel Snap has a variant system.

In Marvel Snap, players have access to around 230 cards. Each of these cards has multiple variants, with most having between four and six. In addition to variants, Marvel Snap cards can be upgraded until they split. Infinity Splits can give a card an alternative background or special effect, with up to 20 total variations that can all be collected. Suffice to say, a Marvel Snap player’s library of cards grows rapidly, and a feature is necessary to help players sort through them.

Brode went on Twitter on Saturday to explain Marvel Snap‘s system for favoriting a player’s chosen card variant. If players select a card from their library, there’s an icon in the bottom left that looks like four cards arranged in a grid. Within this menu, players see all of a card’s variants they have, and assigning a gold star to the card makes it their favorite. Marvel Snap players can then de-selected “All Variants” from their library’s search and filters functionality to only see their favorite cards.

Many Marvel Snap players are likely completely unfamiliar with this feature, in part because it’s buried within several menus and doesn’t seem to do anything. As players grow their card library, however, using the system becomes much more efficient. Second Dinner is aware of how cumbersome it can be, though. Brode even confirms that an upcoming patch will make “big improvements” to this feature’s availability and straightforwardness.

It’s understandable why Second Dinner may be prioritizing improvements to this feature over some other improvements to the game. Variants aren’t just one of Marvel Snap‘s most interesting features, it’s also a key part of Marvel Snap‘s monetization. Players can purchase variants with Gold, the game’s premium currency, and there are some very cool-looking variants.

As for when the update will arrive, Brode doesn’t provide any specific information. If it’s targeted for an upcoming patch, it’s likely arriving in the relatively near future, though. Brode likely brought the topic up on Twitter just so more Marvel Snap players were aware the feature is currently available.

Marvel Snap is available now on PC and mobile devices.
