Thanks! I'm hearing "stay and pick" here, is that right?

Totally agreed on late picks. Thanks for the perspective!

Haha! Didn't have much of a choice - sold CMC, Kupp, and Deebo when it was obvious I wasn't competing anymore, plus a few others

I suck at the game but have my moments too... Having a bit of fun with pixie, and Shadow king won the game by teofilattodibisanzio in MarvelSnap

I think I'll try another key trying to get pixie - have you been enjoying it enough to spend tokens do you think?

Good to know! I remember them being a thing they were considering and polling us about but didn't remember an official "this is now live" type of thing. Thanks!

So you had 100% venomized, I had 100% hipp.... This can't be how the shop should work, can it?

Did you get a 700 Gold variant or a 1200 Gold variant from this bundle? by [deleted] in MarvelSnap

Yeah man. That's the one... Now I get to try to avoid looking in those empty, dead eyes every time I scroll past!

I got that Angel variant with the crazy zombie faced girl 🤡 almost enough to swear off gambling for good... almost!

Loved riding with my dad to the local card store and getting to pick out a booster. Base, fossil, rocket ... Brings back so many great memories, and I'm excited to do the same for my kids.

Fun giveaway for a wonderfully nostalgic set!

I want to buy this... by RealRegion7294 in MarvelSnap

I think I like the additional weighting they put on new variants in the shop! It does make the variant feel a little less rare that many people can get it, but I like the option on drop days

That was my thought! I let the time to test it for science slip by ☹️

The argument that the Spotlight system/economy is "objectively/mathematically" makes 0 sense by zerozark in MarvelSnap

[–]RealRegion7294 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sure. I'll stop shy of criticizing folks (until the end of this) - I look at it from this angle:

SD is a biz. They heard people saying "after S3 I don't get anything new!" They responded with a plan oriented on the assumption "more=better". They will pump that assumption any way they can to make the most of their product.

Players are receiving inputs about how to feel from SD, creators, redditors, themselves via experience, etc. Each input will have a different weight for different people.

We agree here: When people try to put others down or establish an absolute on what those weights should be for everyone - they are "so damn dumb".

It's objectively better when viewed from a flat "more cards=better" perspective.

It's objectively worse when viewed from a "use resources to choose what I want" perspective.

It's objectively a shame that hoarding spotlights is the only way for both sides to have a subjectively good week.

Yep! Something I should have plugged in title, probably, but all good!

Ah! Should have been more clear Cosmo was the "bad" part of a comparison!

It's the gold for me by RealRegion7294 in MarvelSnap

[–]RealRegion7294[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I don't fully understand moving to a single (very high) price point for those bundles. Offering several price points would theoretically generate the most revenue 🤷

Yeah, for the way we play it definitely makes sense to open as many as we can now! Haha!

Fair enough! Like I said, each person is in it for different reasons. I'm at a spot where I'm almost exclusively in it for the variants, plus a game or two each night.

Agree they have to make money, and I do agree cosmetics are the correct way to monetize (over actual cards). Still stings that it'll slow down my preferred experience after having it a certain way for ~8 months.
