Marvel Snap: Is Spider-Man 2099 Worth 3000 Collector’s Tokens?
The final new card release of the Marvel Snap Spider-Versus season is none other than Spider-Man 2099. The Spidey of the future gives some serious firepower to the Move archetype, but is it enough to justify its cost of 3000 Collector's Tokens? To find out, we’re going to break down what the Spider-Man 2099 card does, explore what strategies best suit it, and what decks it can be used in.

Then again, because the card he destroys at his new location is chosen at random, he’s far less effective on locations with multiple units. If your luck is bad, then he’ll only remove a small unit, like Spider-Ham or Korg.
