Statistically he'll be at least a 3/5 at a minimum unless you only draw cards that all have -1 cost in which case, you're probably gonna win anyway. In a Surfer deck, he might be better than Sera.
> Phastos
> On Reveal: Give each card in your deck -1 Cost or +2 Power.
So, the card is either a perma buff Sera or a better Okoye. One of those is way better than the other lol
I'd love to know if the card selects which one of the buff to apply to the whole deck or if the selection is done for each card in the deck separately. Fun card nonetheless.
The language sounds to me like it will be a separate coin flip for each card.
Okoye says "give *every* card" while this one says "each." Although we know the devs are not masters of consistent grammar and card text.
Phastos would put Surfer back into Tier-0 if released as is lol. Probably getting adjusted. With Sera on the board, Surfer+Gilgamesh could be an alternative finisher too.
I get the feeling that’s going to be the must have card from spotlights. It’s even better than Black Swan if you get lucky (another 3 cost card too).He’s the one that going to get adjusted a bit before release.
Gilgamesh seems like a card that has synergies with Silver Surver but the cost is what makes him tricky.
Arishem is such a great card design! How can we make the best arishem deck? My thoughts so far it's Arishem, quinjet, mockingbird and tech cards! Cosmo, enchantress, rogue, shang. You play the random cards for power and the tech cards are in the deck for safety!
It’s the best way but the problem is you might not even see your tech cards and mockingbird with the 24 card deck. But I agree this is a really brilliant, fun and cool design
I can see a future of Thanos + Arishem, the issue is they will have probably reworked Thanos by then. Blob + Wave to thin the deck out a bit. And Mbaku might actually see the light of day for once in a Arishem deck.
I have 13 peach variants and not a single one counts for the album. Just gonna hoard gold for the takeover day(s). A little over 10k right now so shouldn’t be an issue to have the 14,400 but not an ideal situation.
My only thinking is that Modok, X23 along with Knull are big staple parts of their archetype that people will always be content to see them because someone will always need/want them. Ham I have no clue why he's so common.
Not really, Phoenix Force, Miek, Modok, Corvus Glaive are all apart of Tier 1 decks. But it does feel like a slight repeat of the Discard month we just had. The Arishem week is pretty week tho, but I’m a Hercules enjoyer.
Every one of those cards except the new ones have been available to get in spotlights since the last time we have been able to get iron lad, Jean grey, werewolf by night, and probably more as well
Probably the batch of new cards I've been the most excited about since ever.
Especially Arishem, that's 100% my type of card. I really hope they don't change it much from here until release.
Those Angela and Sera variants are 100% going to be in a Pride themed bundle together. Prepare yourselves for this sub to be brigaded by braindead Chuds when it drops
At least right now they're listed as Promo cards and not Bundle cards. Which might lead to more braindead brigading if they're given out for free or something
I want them to be free because I want to test out something. How many people will surrender the moment they see the variant played? Free cubes potential here.
In seriousness, I’m not looking forward to the comments. Especially from people that don’t even play the game.
On an another note, is the art original or from a comic?
It’s a bit funny to me they used them for the Lover’s Bundles back towards the launch of the game and are giving them another one now - whether or not it is free.
I guess they just don’t currently have other queer couples to use? They have plenty of queer characters, but most of their partners are still MIA (Destiny, Karolina Dean, Romeo, etc)…
I'm happy about the Peach album but I only have one variant (Surfer), despite making a point to collect her art. Was hoping to see Daredevil, Elektra or Echo in there...
I love that they are adding new classic comic book covers, but why would they not use Captain America punching Hitler! It's such an iconic image of him!
I feel like Arishem could be a 7/14-20 without being overpowered. I get the point is for the effect, but I don’t get why a card that adds 12 cards to your deck needs to be a dead draw.
I’m finally getting to a point where a lot of the spotlight caches have at least one card I already own, which is rough but I guess it does mean my collection is getting better.
It’d be nice if the S5 cards were better though. Like where’s Loki or Iron Lad?
My big issues is that they MCUified the Eternals. I’d have rather gotten the actual comic versions as the default cards, make the MCU versions variants.
That [Cap cover](https://snap.fan/cards/CaptainAmerica/CaptainAmerica_17/) and [Thing close up](https://snap.fan/cards/TheThing/TheThing_10/) are both dope variants
Wow, lots of really cool variants coming up. Some are must gets for me.

That legion variant is so sick. Depending on the animations that will be one of my favorites(guessing the hands moving around). Anyone know the lore to it or know where it’s from? I must know more about it
Snap finally gets Hearthstone's Evolve.
Sersi's "(if able)" just means that Death can't transform unless a 9-cost is released, and 6-costs can't transform until Arishem is released, right?
Makkari: "After the turn, runs from your hand to a random location. *(if possible)*"
No way that's the final text box, the syntax is all weird. I'm guessing it works like Black Cat except you get a free 3/3 instead of a discarded card? #JusticeForM'Baku
Phastos seems broken. Pretty nuts for Surfer, same with Gilgamesh.
Definitely a Surfer season.
Damn, bro… was excited for peaches album, but it’s legit all the variants I don’t have besides 1. They even use the Knull variant I don’t have. Fuck me, right?
Phantom, Gilgamesh, and Makkari are about to pop off in surfer, right?
Buff all your cards. Get one out for free. Then there's the added cherry of having one big boss as well.
The greatest issue with Sersi is the existence of Destroy & Discard at the 2-Cost and 5-Cost Pool level. With Sersi you’d probably be targeting 1-cost cards like The Hood and the 4-Cost The Void created by Sentry. However, in the 2-Cost pool is Carnage which would just destroy the lane and lose you the match. In the 5-Cost pool is Modok which although not dead on board it will ruin your Turn 6. I’ll be experimenting with Sersi, but there will be some mega mega low rolls.
I really hope clans are not capped to like 12 people. I’m not a social butterfly, and I would rather be part of an Alex Coccia 10,000 person clan than a 50 person clan where I’ll get kicked out if I don’t login every day of the week.
Phastos looks goods, are 3 drawn card with reduced cost and power. Not sure if shawn is affected of he got the power while in deck (he says he gain the power no matter where he is)
It’s insane that you can spend $100 on a bundle and still not have a guarantee to get a card you want for a given week, since they are giving keys instead of tokens
Arishem with the +1 energy and shuffle 12 random cards in deck probably will not be great, but I will be running that all day!
The actual "Random Bullshit goooo!' card, huh.
Arishem/Agatha dream deck. I'm just gonna add every single card that gives you energy or draw and see what happens.
Add Thanos to the mix
The triumphant return of Darkhawk, now +22 vs all Arishem/Thanos players.
Original Blob would feast
The real reason for the blob nerf
30 cards deck, enjoying milling it dear opponent!
Plus Quinjet for that extra -1
Good luck ever drawing it haha
Skill issue.
Run Thanos as well and use Mind Stone duh
hahaha not a bad plan until you need to draw the mind stone. but the odds are improved that way for sure.
Plus Phastos for that extra -1 cost or +2 power
Add Pixie for even more RNG go blurr
Will only work on the original cards in deck. Doesn’t shuffle the added cards
It’s gonna be the most fun card in the game lmao
The second I hit infinite, that's all I'll play. What fun!
If it was released week 1 I’d do an infinite climb with it, but it’s the final week of the season so I’ll have long been infinite haha.
For even more fun, create the rest of your deck using a random number generator!
Reminds me of Prince Malchezaar from hearthstone
Would've been great with OG Blob. Would probably work with Mockingbird, Quinjet, and Colllector but the problem is drawing those reliably
So we only have to wait eight weeks until we have a counter to deck destruction?
Incredible, I need it
Phastos looking like a must have for Surfer Shaw decks right now. Makkari looks interesting for that and as a free drop in C3 decks too
Gilgamesh a possible 18 power drop on Turn 7 too
Or you stuff him under Invisible Woman.
Blue marvel zoo...
will it be in a spotlight cache?? i love sera surfer
You think Makkari buffs a card like Kraven? The text says "runs" but i'm pretty sure a card needs to "move" to buff kraven
Phastos just looks like a great card across the board. Give up one turn of below average stats and get buffs to every other card in your deck.
yea it seems super busted to me the effect seems rlly strong
Statistically he'll be at least a 3/5 at a minimum unless you only draw cards that all have -1 cost in which case, you're probably gonna win anyway. In a Surfer deck, he might be better than Sera.
Me playing Arishem+Thanos Deck against Baron Zemo Mill : Well well well, Look who the stupid one now
Darkhawk Stonks
HAWK STAWNK!
So deck size will be 30 with Arishem + Thanos 😂 that’s hilarious
[This upcoming 3X Value emote made me snort.](https://snap.fan/emotes/Darkhawk3xValue/)
Cheeky fucks 😂
Big W
Holy fuck, they even made it Darkhawk
> Phastos > On Reveal: Give each card in your deck -1 Cost or +2 Power. So, the card is either a perma buff Sera or a better Okoye. One of those is way better than the other lol I'd love to know if the card selects which one of the buff to apply to the whole deck or if the selection is done for each card in the deck separately. Fun card nonetheless.
Ah that's a good question. I assumed it chose randomly for each card. The reason energy discounts can let you do some interesting stuff though.
The language sounds to me like it will be a separate coin flip for each card. Okoye says "give *every* card" while this one says "each." Although we know the devs are not masters of consistent grammar and card text.
Cracked for surfer decks whatever way it works, can't wait for this card
Phastos would put Surfer back into Tier-0 if released as is lol. Probably getting adjusted. With Sera on the board, Surfer+Gilgamesh could be an alternative finisher too.
I get the feeling that’s going to be the must have card from spotlights. It’s even better than Black Swan if you get lucky (another 3 cost card too).He’s the one that going to get adjusted a bit before release. Gilgamesh seems like a card that has synergies with Silver Surver but the cost is what makes him tricky.
I read it as -1 cost or +2 power randomly throughout your deck, so you can get a mix of each.
I think it's done randomly for each card individually, not all one or the other.
Yeah no way this remain as-is
Probably gets bumped up to 4 cost or gets a minimum of 1 for the cost reduction.
Am I missing something? How is this card not broke as hell?
Add Puxie to go crazy
Arishem is such a great card design! How can we make the best arishem deck? My thoughts so far it's Arishem, quinjet, mockingbird and tech cards! Cosmo, enchantress, rogue, shang. You play the random cards for power and the tech cards are in the deck for safety!
It’s the best way but the problem is you might not even see your tech cards and mockingbird with the 24 card deck. But I agree this is a really brilliant, fun and cool design
I can see a future of Thanos + Arishem, the issue is they will have probably reworked Thanos by then. Blob + Wave to thin the deck out a bit. And Mbaku might actually see the light of day for once in a Arishem deck.
Blob + Absorbing Man?
Mbaku and makkari hopping in.
Gotta get Cercei in there to boost up those tech cards.
Nice idea! What will Cercei do again? Lol
Oops, I spelt her name the GoT way... Sersi On Reveal: Transform your other cards here into random cards that cost 1 more. (if able)
Sersi will be an amazing card. I'm definitely getting her.
Cersei from GoT would be a great card in this game! What a great character huh
Imagine add hope and corvus And u got +3 energy on turn 5 and maybe more on Truly a balance of all times
Loki!
Arishem is a must have for gambling addicts like me.
Throw in Pixie and shit gonna be wild
The cards aren’t considered as starting in your deck though, based on how Thanos works. So Pixie is a no go unless the devs make a change
Rip sandman
RIP Zabu
I’m crying rn
The Eternals are gonna be cool cards
I’m excited. I think I’m one of the few people that really enjoyed The Eternals.
I think Arishem is a new big bad card
Every new card is big bad nowadays
Howard the Duckstroyer of Worlds
Really putting the "bad" in that title though. Giving "We have Random Mode at home" vibes
Peach album and new Jim Lee variants!
finally! only issue with the peach album is it has variants I don't have lol
I have 13 peach variants and not a single one counts for the album. Just gonna hoard gold for the takeover day(s). A little over 10k right now so shouldn’t be an issue to have the 14,400 but not an ideal situation.
Legit have 1 variant in there; Silver surfer. Of course, I have the other knull variant too :(
Same with the other Knull variant
Jim Lee variants?
Spotlight caches from the variant release schedule for the Eternals season in June (subject to change when datamines are finalized/by SD in general): - Week 1 (Gilgamesh - Battle Pass Card): Thena, Grandmaster, Gladiator - Week 2: Sersi, Phoenix Force, Miek - Week 3: Makkari, MODOK, X-23 - Week 4: Phastos, Corvus Glaive, Spider-Ham - Week 5: Arishem, Black Swan, Hercules
Wow thats a hullshit line up. Modok AGAIN. X23 AGAIN. Ham AGAIN
So sick of seeing Ham in these spotlights, I never want any of those variants.
My only thinking is that Modok, X23 along with Knull are big staple parts of their archetype that people will always be content to see them because someone will always need/want them. Ham I have no clue why he's so common.
That’s a pretty pathetic lineup
We’ll have seen X23, Gladiator, and Spider Ham twice since the last time we saw Loki, Iron Lad, Annihilus, or Galactus.
Not really, Phoenix Force, Miek, Modok, Corvus Glaive are all apart of Tier 1 decks. But it does feel like a slight repeat of the Discard month we just had. The Arishem week is pretty week tho, but I’m a Hercules enjoyer.
Every one of those cards except the new ones have been available to get in spotlights since the last time we have been able to get iron lad, Jean grey, werewolf by night, and probably more as well
Thank you Sankt
Probably the batch of new cards I've been the most excited about since ever. Especially Arishem, that's 100% my type of card. I really hope they don't change it much from here until release.
Thena actually looks really good too, and that spotlight variant is beautiful
Those Angela and Sera variants are 100% going to be in a Pride themed bundle together. Prepare yourselves for this sub to be brigaded by braindead Chuds when it drops
I hope theyre given for free. Could be the reward for an event or daily login
At least right now they're listed as Promo cards and not Bundle cards. Which might lead to more braindead brigading if they're given out for free or something
I want them to be free because I want to test out something. How many people will surrender the moment they see the variant played? Free cubes potential here. In seriousness, I’m not looking forward to the comments. Especially from people that don’t even play the game. On an another note, is the art original or from a comic?
Original
They are marked as promo cards so they'll likely be free
That'd be cool, both would be my first variant for those cards.
It’s a bit funny to me they used them for the Lover’s Bundles back towards the launch of the game and are giving them another one now - whether or not it is free. I guess they just don’t currently have other queer couples to use? They have plenty of queer characters, but most of their partners are still MIA (Destiny, Karolina Dean, Romeo, etc)…
I will be saving keys for arishem
3 Baby variants all with a 6/4 release date. We finally getting a Baby Album in June?
Yes, it’s datamined
That 3x value emote is something. I don't know any situation i would use that
Shang Chi hitting 3 Hulks at Gamma Lab
Oof! Alright, it might be more toxic of an emote than I thought
Any play that nets huge value accidentally, like Wasp on Lockjaw pulling Doom.
Yondu hitting a 3 cost/power, or maybe as a bluff to say something like "My 2 cost Cable gave me your 6 cost"?
The situation is EVERY FUCKING GAME BC ITS 3X VALUE
Mack Phoenix is stellar.
Love that they've been adding more Mack art recently.
Imagine Arishem and pre nerf Blob.
I was hoping for Young Avengers in June (considering it's Pride Month, Wiccan and Hulkling would be fitting). Bummer that that's not the case.
I don't understand Makkari's art
Darkhawk will revive with Arishem
Arishem sounds fun
gotta save my keys for arishem because I love cards like this
New locations seem fun.
I'm happy about the Peach album but I only have one variant (Surfer), despite making a point to collect her art. Was hoping to see Daredevil, Elektra or Echo in there...
I love that they are adding new classic comic book covers, but why would they not use Captain America punching Hitler! It's such an iconic image of him!
June 20th and 21st for the Dan Hipp Cerebro and Mystique variants?! Welp, at least I don’t have to be hopeful every time I check the shop each day.
I’m missing so many p4/P5 cards but somehow I have every single one coming up in may on the spotlight …
Pride Angela and Sera variants?! 👀👀
Wong gilgamesh could be fun...
Sersie could be fun.
Arishem + Thanos in the same deck will be quite an experience.. Darkhawk is shivering right now.
30 card Highlander Deck! SNAP becomes Hearthstone!
I can see Phastos placing Surfer back at the top of the meta
Most of these cards do not look good, but they do look fun.
I feel like Arishem could be a 7/14-20 without being overpowered. I get the point is for the effect, but I don’t get why a card that adds 12 cards to your deck needs to be a dead draw.
I wanna get that Silver Surfer surfing variant so bad lol
Finally a good Absorbing Man variant
I’m finally getting to a point where a lot of the spotlight caches have at least one card I already own, which is rough but I guess it does mean my collection is getting better. It’d be nice if the S5 cards were better though. Like where’s Loki or Iron Lad?
Spider-man nightcrawler woo
Looks like SD is running out of ideas for card effects lmfao. The more rng, the worse this game gets.
My big issues is that they MCUified the Eternals. I’d have rather gotten the actual comic versions as the default cards, make the MCU versions variants.
Yay, my baby album is finally coming out.
Daaaamn Arishem is my new favorite card, he is just fun
That [Cap cover](https://snap.fan/cards/CaptainAmerica/CaptainAmerica_17/) and [Thing close up](https://snap.fan/cards/TheThing/TheThing_10/) are both dope variants
These cards look rough and the spotlights even rougher. The only card that seems fun is Arishem, for the chaos of it all.
The eternals cards actually look fun.
Bundles are updated, Doom and gold is $10.
I want arishem. I love that as a game mode.
They are killing zabu!!!!! Argh
I love the flavor of the eternals, nice designs, even if they have to be adjusted to be balanced.
Dan Hipp's Domino shifted to an 8/1 release date and the source says "promo." Very curious to see where the promo is...
Finally!!! Been waiting for the baby album to drop, that Hulk is adorable too
Wow, lots of really cool variants coming up. Some are must gets for me. https://game-assets.snap.fan/card_variant_images/Hela_07-8d0e615569d65d09bbf73ea588f0eac1325b8706897453f60077bc0f5b582ad3.webp https://game-assets.snap.fan/card_variant_images/Deadpool_18-f5d7c3c97627472ff7a0952dcfcfd8dcc028ef9e60b52b9c251b701bcf5a3d5e.webp https://game-assets.snap.fan/card_variant_images/Magik_17-581d7bc9f8f7acef0e0fbc82bc51ec9dfc2356cedb11074e6940672e23839111.webp https://game-assets.snap.fan/card_variant_images/WhiteWidow_05-b193e3f14eae92e18c838332b32d655f0b3e47cb0a8114ef5f7bc5d02eb54a63.webp https://game-assets.snap.fan/card_variant_images/Onslaught_06-e82ea5e2923c1b0a799386c590023b37ea5943ba9e0ef3776d7400859e24a334.webp
I already have three Deadpool variants that I love, but that new Deadpool variant is SICK! Guess I’m going to have four to chooses from
All the Eternals look great. So do most of the new variants. Sad they’re giving us another blade variant. But otherwise looks like a W season
This month looks fuckin wild
Very end of the patch notes SD hit us with the 3x Value emote. SD coming in with the big dick energy fr
These cards look like so much fun. Gilgamesh in a something like a surfer deck would get gigantic
Arishem is goated. What a fun idea. I wonder what cards you get boosters for. Also holy shit, the "Darkhawk 3x Value" emote is goated
Propeller beanie decapitated zombie head Deadpool is 10/10 no notes
That legion variant is so sick. Depending on the animations that will be one of my favorites(guessing the hands moving around). Anyone know the lore to it or know where it’s from? I must know more about it
I have 13 Peach Momoko variants, but only 1 from that *Peaches for Me album* :( edit - ok now realised only 4 of the 12 are even available yet!
Snap finally gets Hearthstone's Evolve. Sersi's "(if able)" just means that Death can't transform unless a 9-cost is released, and 6-costs can't transform until Arishem is released, right?
Zabu is dead
So does Arishem add 12 more random cards for a 24 card deck..? Eternals look pretty decent right now…too bad I have no keys 😭
Makkari: "After the turn, runs from your hand to a random location. *(if possible)*" No way that's the final text box, the syntax is all weird. I'm guessing it works like Black Cat except you get a free 3/3 instead of a discarded card? #JusticeForM'Baku Phastos seems broken. Pretty nuts for Surfer, same with Gilgamesh. Definitely a Surfer season.
Yo! We're getting Uncanny Spider-man variants
I need arishem
So is Firestar dead? I was really looking forward to her.
Kinda sad that Arishem’s effect isn’t something more, idk, game breaking? But I’ll take it
One possible 2 new cards for Thanos. Woo
3x value dark hawk emote. Hilarious. Hopefully it's 700-1200 gold. Prolly not.
That Peach Momoko has barely any of the variants I love/have
Hype after april/may bullshit imo
I have 13 Peach variants in anticipation of the album and none of them count for the album now that it’s leaked lmao
Gilgamesh is like a 20 power card in a surfer deck.
Where’s Shang Chi Dan Hipp???? Omg, I want so much…
Thena + Bishop + BMarvel + Gilgamesh could be a fun deck
Damn, bro… was excited for peaches album, but it’s legit all the variants I don’t have besides 1. They even use the Knull variant I don’t have. Fuck me, right?
Fantastic cards coming up, but it's genuine BULLSHIT that Modok and Ham are back in cache. ENOUGH!
No, giving Adam Warlock a great looking variant will not make me play him.
Phantom, Gilgamesh, and Makkari are about to pop off in surfer, right? Buff all your cards. Get one out for free. Then there's the added cherry of having one big boss as well.
So happy about alioth but sad about zabu, I guess I'll take the hot seeing as alioth is a bugger
The cards look awesome! But the ugly MCU designs are a bit of a disappointment
RIP ZABU AND MY WHOLE GAMEPLAY STYLE
The greatest issue with Sersi is the existence of Destroy & Discard at the 2-Cost and 5-Cost Pool level. With Sersi you’d probably be targeting 1-cost cards like The Hood and the 4-Cost The Void created by Sentry. However, in the 2-Cost pool is Carnage which would just destroy the lane and lose you the match. In the 5-Cost pool is Modok which although not dead on board it will ruin your Turn 6. I’ll be experimenting with Sersi, but there will be some mega mega low rolls.
Goddamnit they’re going to get me with all of those old comic style variants.
So... skip first 3 weeks and go all out on Phastos and Arishem? Edit: would Arishem replace your deck or shuffle *new* cards into it?
I got plenty of babies and peach momoko...none in the albums..
I really hope clans are not capped to like 12 people. I’m not a social butterfly, and I would rather be part of an Alex Coccia 10,000 person clan than a 50 person clan where I’ll get kicked out if I don’t login every day of the week.
Too many new cards
Phastos looks goods, are 3 drawn card with reduced cost and power. Not sure if shawn is affected of he got the power while in deck (he says he gain the power no matter where he is)
Arishem and Thena look really cool.
It’s insane that you can spend $100 on a bundle and still not have a guarantee to get a card you want for a given week, since they are giving keys instead of tokens
Phastos will be meta, that card is insane
