Just days after Second Dinner dropped an over-the-air balance update for Marvel Snap, the team is back again, this time with a content update that’s gotten some mixed reception in the community.
The theme of content updates lately has been customization, with previous patches adding the ability for players to create Custom Cards, mixing and matching unlocked borders, variants, and split effects, with some caveats. The split effects were only available in Custom Cards for the variants that had unlocked the split. So an ink split for one variant wouldn’t unlock an ink for another, even for the same character. That changed this week with an iteration on the feature that allowed for unlocked character splits to be mixed and matched with any of that character’s card variants.
Second Dinner also added the first iteration of Collectible Borders. Cards are no longer limited to just the borders that are unlocked through an infinity split. Players can purchase additional color borders such as Metallic Copper or Neon Blue as well as many others. More character specific borders will come later once card mastery is introduced in a future update.
The purchasable collectible borders haven’t gone over super well with the community, however. Second Dinner is selling each color border for 900 gold and this is on a per card basis instead of being unlocked globally. Players are excited for the new colors, but not about having to pay for them across the many cards in their collection.
