Mutants, beware! The Sentinels are coming! Marvel Snap's next season will focus on the machine menace to mutantkind, with cards and locations inspired by the X-Men comics. There'll also be a new Variant Rush similar to the Christmas one, except centered around Steampunk versions of various X-Men and regular men. Let's dive in!


New Cards

First up, we have Nimrod, a 5/5 that, when destroyed, adds a copy to each of the other locations. This is going to be the card that will be obtainable via the season pass.

Next, we have 3 new cards coming to series 5:

  • Master Mold [2/2] - On Reveal: Add 2 Sentinels to your opponent's hand.
  • Kitty Pryde [1/0] - You can return this to your hand to gain +2 Power.
  • Negasonic Teenage Warhead [3/4] - After any card is played here, destroy this card and that card.


New Locations

Three locations were revealed to be coming. We'll go over each one and give you a little description of them.

We start with Orchid Forge, which has the effect After you play a card here, add a Sentinel to your hand. This is a space-station retrofitted by the Sentinels from a dyson sphere made by Tony Stark, that was destroyed during an alien invasion (typical Tuesday). As the name implies, it makes Sentinels.

Up next, we have Krakoa, with the effect On turn 5, takes over and plays both player's cards for them. This a smaller size Ego, which is fitting, as Krakoa is a sentient island that acted as a safe heaven for various mutants.

Last, but not least, is Asteroid M, having the effect After you play a 3 or 4-cost card, move it here. If this sounds familiar, it's because it's a similar effect to Magneto's, who used the asteroid as a base of operations.


Season Cache Variants

Nimrod, Wolverine and Sentinel will be the 3 cards to receive variants in the season pass. 


Variant Rush

As mentioned at the start of the article, there will be a new Variant Rush, similar to the Christmas one. We will get steampunk versions of Bishop, Falcon, Shocker, Cerebro, and Yellowjacket, as well as the "Steam Powered", "Fully Leathered", and "The Googles do Nothing!" titles. Collector's Reserves (above 1000CL) will have a chance to drop the aforementioned items, even if you don't own the respective card (you'll still need to get the card at some point). Unfortunately, we don't have the images for these variants yet.
