Grab your axe and get ready to jump into the mosh pit when Marvel SNAP's November War of the Nine Realms Season launches this month. If you're planning to pick up the new cards, you'll need our Spotlight Cache Schedule to budget your resources. Read below for the official Spotlight Cache Guide for November, including new cards, Spotlight variants and cards worth getting if you don’t have a complete collection.
Spotlight Cache information has been confirmed by Marvel SNAP in their November War of the Nine Realms Developer Update. If you want to see datamined Cards, Spotlight Caches and other unconfirmed data for November and December, check our Datamined Schedule.
Here are the Spotlight Caches for Marvel SNAP’s November War of the Nine Realms season.
NOV 05 - NOV 12
FRIGGA (Series 5)
On Reveal: Add a copy of the last card you played to your hand. (if able)
RED GUARDIAN (Series 5)
On Reveal: Afflict the lowest-Power enemy card here with -2 Power and remove its text.
COPYCAT (Series 5)
When you draw this, copy the text from the bottom card of your opponent's deck.
The first Spotlight Cache week of the War of the Nine Realms Season offers a few building blocks for players looking to add options to their collection. Frigga's ability will fit well in Surfer Archetype and Mill Archetype, while Red Guardian and Copycat are solid additions to a number of decks. While Copycat has seen less and less play since its release, Red Guardian is a powerful tool to counter a number of meta decks and both still in Tier B on our Card Tier List.
This will be the first week of the November Marvel SNAP season, so in addition to the featured Spotlight Cache cards, players can get Surtur by buying the Season Pass. Surtur is 3-Cost, 5-Power card with ability: After you play a card with 10+ Power, this gains +3 Power. Check out the Developer update for more info on Surtur and the War of the Nine Realms Season.
NOV 12 - NOV 19
MALEKITH (Series 5)
On Reveal: Add a 1, 2, or 3-Cost card from your deck here. It reveals at the end of the game.
VALENTINA (Series 5)
On Reveal: Add a random 6-Cost card to your hand. Give it -2 Cost and -3 Power.
THENA (Series 5)
After each turn, +3 Power if you played (exactly) 2 cards.
The second Spotlight Cache week features Malekith, an interesting deck-building card that at the very least, serves as a deck-thinner. Valentina and Thena join Malekith this week, and while Valentina may still be waiting for its time to shine, Thena is a great pickup for players who may have missed it first time around.
NOV 19 - NOV 26
FENRIS WOLF (Series 5)
Activate: Resurrect the highest-Power discarded or destroyed enemy card to your side of this location.
ANNIHILUS (Series 5)
On Reveal: Your cards with Power below 0 switch sides. Destroy those that can’t.
WEREWOLF BY NIGHT (Series 5)
After you play a card, move there to gain +2 Power if it has an On Reveal.
The week of NOV 19 - OCT 26 features Fenris Wolf, our first new Activate card since the keyword's initial launch, which is shaping up to be a powerful Turn 6 combo with Shang-Chi. The new card is joined by Annihilus and Werewolf By Night - the latter having a minor resurgence in a few Bounce lists.
NOV 26 - DEC 03
GORR THE GOD BUTCHER (Series 5)
Ongoing: +2 Power for EACH On Reveal card in play.
HAVOK (Series 4)
After each turn, you lose 1 Max Energy and this gains +4 Power.
LEGION (Series 4)
On Reveal: Replace each other location with this one.
Unfortunately, value wise, the final week of the War of the Nine Realms Season is the worst of the month. While Havok is interesting and Legion is a powerful card in its own right, they're both Series 4 cards - difficult cards to recommend spending keys on. Gorr is sure to be a powerful finisher, as decks are often made up of mostly On Reveal cards and Gorr gains power for both your and your opponent's cards in play.
