As a long-time Marvel fan and a combat veteran who lost my legs in a war, I can’t help but feel a surge of nostalgia with the upcoming “We Are Venom” season in Marvel Snap. The focus on Agent Venom, Flash Thompson’s transformation, brings back memories of his heroic struggle to find purpose after the conflict and the bond he formed with the symbiote.
As a die-hard fan, I can’t help but feel excited as October rolls around because it’s clearly “Venom Month” for Marvel! The epic symbiote movie saga is about to reach its climax with “Venom: The Last Dance,” while the comic book world is engulfed in the catastrophic “Venom War” storyline. With symbiotes popping up everywhere, it’s only fitting that Marvel Snap joins the fray with their own October offering, “We Are Venom” season!
Instead of Eddie Brock being central in Marvel’s ongoing stories, Second Dinner is concentrating on a different host of the Venom symbiote, who comic fans might remember as Flash Thompson. After his service in the Iraq War, Flash briefly bonded with the Venom symbiote to replace his lost legs and secure a position within S.H.I.E.L.D. post-conflict. Marvel Snap is highlighting this chapter of the symbiote by making Agent Venom (Flash Thompson) the featured character for October’s Season Pass offer.
Look forward to the following cards coming to Marvel Snap for the month of October:
- (2) Agent Venom (4) (Season Pass card) – On Reveal: Set the Power of all cards in your deck to 4.
- (2) Toxin (1) – On Reveal: Return your other cards here to your hand. +2 Power for each returned.
- (2) Scream (2) – When an enemy card moves, steal 2 Power from it. (once per turn)
- (4) Misery (7) – On Reveal: Repeat the On Reveal abilities of your other cards here, then destroy them.
- (4) Anti-Venom (6) – On Reveal: Set the Cost and Power of your deck’s top card to 0.
- (1) Scorn (2) – When you discard this, return it to your hand and give +2 power to itself and one of your other cards in play.
In the Marvel Snap’s October 2024 season, we’ll discover and add two new spots to our game world. F.E.A.S.T. locations grant an extra Energy boost for your next turn whenever a card is played there. On the other hand, filling Our Lady of Saints will cause all cards in that location to combine into a Symbiote.
Starting from October 18th until the 25th, there’s a special game mode called High Voltage that’ll be available. This mode lasts for three turns and at the beginning of each turn, players’ energy levels will be randomly assigned. As you play this mode, you’ll accumulate Volts, and since Snaps are disabled, it’s less stressful to participate. By completing High Voltage, you can obtain a new card called Agony, but don’t fret if you can’t get it during the event; it will also be available in the Token shop when the event concludes.
The last thing to note is that Marvel Snap is celebrating its second birthday. Second Dinner will be offering free goodies over a seven-day stretch in October to celebrate, including a free variant that players will vote on. Depending on how the vote swings, players will pick up a new Howard the Duck, Armor, or Destroyer.
On Tuesday, October 1st, the new season of Marvel Snap’s We Are Venom is set to begin. Keep an eye on the Marvel Snap news page for updates.
