Marvel Snap's Amazing Spider-Season Kicks Off with New "Activate" Ability and Exciting Cards!
September brings a thrilling new season to Marvel Snap (Free), themed around the amazing Spider-Man and his universe! This season introduces a game-changing mechanic: the "Activate" ability. Unlike "On Reveal," "Activate" allows players to strategically trigger a card's effect at any point during their turn, offering tactical flexibility and counterplay options.

Season Pass Card: Symbiote Spider-Man
This 4-cost, 6-power powerhouse boasts an "Activate" ability that lets you absorb the lowest-cost card at a location and copy its effect. This includes triggering "On Reveal" abilities again, creating potentially game-breaking combos (imagine the chaos with Galactus!). Expect this card to be a major contender – and possibly a target for future nerfs.
New Cards:
- Silver Sable: A 1-cost, 1-power card with an "On Reveal" ability that steals 2 power from the top card of your opponent's deck. A strong addition to various deck strategies.
- Madame Web: This card features an "Ongoing" ability, allowing you to move one card at her location to a different location once per turn. Excellent for manipulating the board state.
- Arana: Another 1-cost, 1-power card with an "Activate" ability. Activating Arana moves your next played card to the right and grants it +2 power, making her a valuable asset for move-based decks.
- Scarlet Spider (Ben Reilly): A 4-cost, 5-power card with an "Activate" ability that spawns an identical clone at another location. This opens up exciting multiplication and power-boosting strategies.
New Locations:
- Brooklyn Bridge: A classic Spider-Man location with a unique twist: you can't play cards there on consecutive turns, demanding creative deck building and strategic card placement.
- Otto's Lab: This location mirrors Doctor Octopus's cunning. The next card you play here pulls a card from your opponent's hand onto the location, adding an element of surprise and unpredictability.
This season's additions bring fresh strategic depth to Marvel Snap. The "Activate" ability, combined with the new cards and locations, promises countless exciting possibilities.
