Marvel Snap Update Nerfs Thanos Deck

gamerant.com:

Marvel Snap’s developer Second Dinner has once again made some changes to Thanos and his deck of Infinity Stones that nerf the cards after they’ve proven to be a little too powerful. Thanos is an ultra-rare Pool 5 card that can be acquired sometime after reaching Collection Level 486. His card was added during Marvel Snap’s Power Cosmic season which ran from late December 2022 through January 2, 2023.

When Thanos gets added to a deck, six Infinity Stone cards are shuffled in as well. The Infinity Stones each provide different abilities that make Thanos more powerful. If all Infinity Stones are played, Thanos gets a +10 power buff, bumping the card up to 18 power. Or, at least that’s how it used to work.

Marvel Snap Is Releasing a New Competitive Game Mode

In the recently released update for March 21, Thanos has been given a new sound effect, but his card has been nerfed like many Marvel Snap cards before it to bring some balance to the game. Thanos’ power has now been reduced from 11 to 10. In the patch notes, Second Dinner states that it doesn't believe this will dramatically impact the success rate of Thanos decks since most of the card’s strength comes from the player’s luck at drawing Infinity Stone cards. According to Snap.fan, a Marvel Snap information website, Thanos ranks first among all cards with the highest win-percentage rate when the card is in a player’s deck, coming in at an astonishing 59% win rate.

One Infinity Stone has been reworked as well. The Space Stone was arguably the strongest of all the Infinity Stones that can be shuffled into a player’s deck. On reveal, it allowed a player to move any card at the location the Space Stone was played, and then the player was able to draw another card, which could
