The halls of Xavier’s Institute are buzzing once again in Marvel Snap, as the May season brings the exciting theme of the New X-Men to the card battler. This month, the game introduces a new class of rising stars, shaking up your matches with fresh tactics and powerful abilities. Leading the charge is Esme Cuckoo, the newest character to join the squad. This telepathic clone of Emma Frost is ready to disrupt the battlefield with her On Reveal effect, which pulls a card from your deck, adjusts its cost to three and boosts its Power to four, handing you a potent psychic weapon.
Throughout May, Marvel Snap will continue to roll out new Series 5 mutants, each week introducing a character that adds unique twists to your strategies. Look forward to characters like Surge, Prodigy, Elixir, and Xorn, all bringing their special abilities to the table. Additionally, Captain Carter's seasonal pack makes a comeback for those who missed it earlier.
The new locations for this season are equally thrilling. Pit of Exile forces players to rethink their strategies, as it disables high-power plays, promoting leaner builds and smarter sequencing. On the other hand, Genosha sets the stage for dramatic final turns by clearing all but the most expensive card, turning the tide in your favor at the last moment.
To stay ahead of the game, be sure to check out our Marvel Snap tier list to build the best deck tailored to your playstyle and the new season's dynamics.
Beyond the battles, Marvel Snap is expanding its collection with three new albums this month. The first, launching on May 8th, is a collaboration with Penny Arcade, featuring Mike Krahulik's unique variants. This will be followed by Rian Gonzales' chibi-themed collection on May 15th, and a disco-themed dance fest on May 30th, showcasing Deadpool, Spider-Man, and Dazzler in vibrant, groove-worthy variants.
