We've got a new featured location in MARVEL SNAP and it'sThrone Room!

Throne Room is a completely new location being added to MARVEL SNAP as part of the November Season: Warriors of Wakanda. The card or cards with the highest Power there have their Power doubled.

This looks like it will play well with any card that has a high enough power to beat out any other card at the location, standard finishers like Devil Dinosaur or Destroyer, or a mid-game beefcake like Namor. It could be tempting to rely upon the effect of Throne Room to double your chances of winning with a single card - but watch out for Shang-Chi.

However you choose to plan for the new location, you'd better get used to it; being a featured location means that Throne Room will have a 40% chance to appear for 48 hours, from 7 PM PT Tuesday night to 7 PM PT Thursday night (2 AM UTC Wednesday to 2 AM UTC Friday).

What Are Featured Locations in MARVEL SNAP?

There are two different types of location events in MARVEL SNAP.

  • Sunday's Hot Location that has a 60% chance to appear for the next 24 hours.
  • Wednesday's Featured Location that has a 40% chance to appear for the next 48 hours.

This helps pave way for new deckbuilding strategies as you may want to be playing something else should the bonus better benefit cards you aren't playing with. We've seen this previously with the featured location, Monster Island, whose boosted appearances meant many players ran Shang-Chi to destroy the 9 Power Monster.

As announced in the developer livestream, MARVEL SNAP will be getting a brand new location every week and it will be featured when it is added, as we're seeing now with Throne Room.
