    There are three nerfs coming in this Marvel SNAP OTA update according to the official patch notes, including a nerf to the ever-popular Spider-Man:

    Spider-Man

    The webslinger is performing to well in various decks, so he’s being nerfed to ensure he doesn’t remain too frustrating to play against.

    • [Old] 4/3 – On Reveal: Your opponent can’t play cards at this location next turn.
    • [New] 5/4 – On Reveal: Your opponent can’t play cards at this location next turn.

    Beast

    Beast is also receiving a nerf as a result of his powerful effects in Bounce decks, and he’s being changed to a 3-cost card. This will also help Falcon out, since he’s kind of like a worse beast at the moment.

    • [Old] 2/2 – On Reveal: Return your other cards at this location to your hand. They cost 1 less.
    • [New] 3/4 – On Reveal: Return your other cards at this location to your hand. They cost 1 less.

    The Hood

    Lastly, The Hood is being nerfed to make him more punishing to play if you can’t counteract his base power. His power has been nerfed, but he might actually be better in certain decks like Viper.

    • [Old] 1/-2 – On Reveal: Add a Demon to your hand.
    • [New] 1/-3 – On Reveal: Add a Demon to your hand.

    Marvel Snap OTA Update: All buffs

    Just two Marvel Snap cards have been buffed in this OTA update, with changes to both Rogue and Medusa.

    Rogue

    Rogue is receiving a small boost to power to help her out a bit. She’s currently underperforming, so this change should help her gain a bit more traction.

    • [Old] 3/1 – On Reveal: Steal an Ongoing ability from a random enemy card at this location.
    • [New] 3/2 – On Reveal: Steal an Ongoing ability from a random enemy card at this location.

    Medusa

    Medusa is seeing virtually no play nowadays, so she’s being buffed to allow her to compete with other cards a bit more.

    • [Old] 2/2 – On Reveal: If this is at the middle location, +2 Power.
    • [New] 2/2 – On Reveal: If this is at the middle location, +3 Power.

    And there you have it, all the balance changes dropping in the June 8th Marvel Snap OTA update.
