We've been given a massive new update in Marvel Snap. It introduced several key changes as promised in the devs' recently updated development roadmap for 2023. This included adjustments that make it easier for you to unlock cards and improvements to Collector's Tokens.

Besides this, we saw the usual patch contents like the monthly balance changes and Series Drops. They'll be setting the stage for the new season after the Days of Future season comes to a close.

In terms of new cards, we saw the addition of Negasonic Teenage Warhead to the game.

Besides these changes, players who have not yet collected all cards from Series 3 will now earn four times more Collector's Tokens than before.

Various balance changes were implemented in the March patch. A key thing to note is that there were only card nerfs and adjustments. The devs made it clear that these changes were made to keep overpowered decks in check and to allow for better card innovations down the line.

Here's a look at this patch's balance changes:
