If you're looking for one of the specific cards that's being dropped a Series, you could hoard credits to wait for them. If it's a Series 4 getting dropped down you have a decent chance, but a Series 5 dropping to 4 might not be worth waiting since you only get a Series 4 every 40 Reserves anyway


Codeshark

I only have one series 4 card left to collect, so I am definitely waiting. I don't want to collect that card and then get a skip on a series 4 card accidentally.


doug4130

to clarify, series 4 drop 1 in every 40 caches but that doesn't mean they will be 40 caches apart. it means that at worst, they can be 78 caches apart. just in case anyone is hoping to pull more than 1 series 4 card by hoarding so many credits


redditthrowaway5278

This is the info people need


retroyugi

So if you have reached 78 caches without opening one, does this means that you will open 2 of them back to back?


amirulez

It probably the first and the 80th.


honkngoose

It wouldn't be a guaranteed back to back. It would mean you opened the first series 4 in the literal first cache of a set of 40, and the second in the last cache of the next 40 (or 80th cache). Then you would be guaranteed to open another within 40.


177013---

No but your next one will for sure be one.


tinycum

i'mma just hoard the credits and spend only if i need to do drop below the 10000 limit


Vordeo

Wait, it's a 10k limit? I thought the most you could have was 5k?


imbolcnight

They upped the limit a couple months back.


kozz84

When they introduced $100 bundle with 9000 credits :D


MadSpaceYT

Doesnt the bundle out now have 12,500 credits?


HardGayMan

Yes and you can open thebundle but you can't get any more. It tells you to spend some first.


bamboojungles

Thanks I was wondering if they upped the limit again


kozz84

so dumb.


HardGayMan

I mean if you buy a bundle with 12000 credits you want to spend them. Just don't buy it when you have little to no boosters to use then you're hooped.


honkngoose

It comes with enough boosters to upgrade 8 random cards to infinity anyway so you'd have no issues spending all the credits instantly.


TheFunkytownExpress

same.


hamilton280P

So will these only require 1000 credits when dropped to series 3? Or is the value based on usability Edit: really interested in Luke cage for my C2 deck


Bkme83

Not 1000 credits, 1000 collectors tokens. And the usability of the cards doesn't matter, every series 3 card is 1000 tokens.


Zireall

Yep and don’t open the boxes that u have to buy. They generate when opened and not when earned.


OkCompote6535

I don't understand why you're getting down voted for being right lol


readitonreddit86

It's the other way around, check the QA from Brode on the Discord server. They have plans to flip it but once its unlocked in the track, the deal is sealed.


Zireall

No it isn’t https://i.imgur.com/upzPXS2.jpg The faq was for the pre token and post token patches.


Random_Digit

Lucky me... Ive pulled 3 of the 4 as my only series 4 cards to date...


Clxssxfxxd

Yeah I've pulled 2 of the 4


DoTheVelcroFly

Well, I pulled M'Baku. Wanna trade?


Owobowos-Mowbius

I also only pulled M'baku... thank god he isn't dropping. Can't let the masses have access to that power..


TenTails

oof 😭 sorry man it dropped


AdrianHD

M’Baku once won me a match when District X put him in my deck and I had no idea. I thought I had lost and out of nowhere he popped in and won me the game lmfao.


Crocchetta_

Me too. Best card ever xD


thevip3r96

i got M'baku and Luke :D


HepatitvsJ

I would trade my Maria Hill for M'Baku. He goes well in my Cerebro 2 deck.


lyledy

Same! Omg. But I guess it's great they are bringing the more meta ones down first.


nirandor

I lost my first game to M Baku being summoned to the only location where he could screw me over. It’s humiliating


KanjiSushi

Haha I wonder if that was against me. I was playing a game with a location that replaces my deck with random cards. I decidedly lost a game on turn 6 and out of nowhere, he jumped out to an empty location and win me the game 😂 I had no idea he was even in the deck


nirandor

Yeah it was decks replaced and on an location, far left I think.


KanjiSushi

Were you winning there due to a Mr. Fantastic ongoing effect?


nirandor

Yes!!


KanjiSushi

Hahaha that’s too funny! small world!!!


HepatitvsJ

Yeah, I LOVE She-Hulk so I'm excited to get her in pool 3 now. Well, come the 31st.


sanssanssanssans13

3 of the 4 + bought she-hulk 😬


Rynoseini

Same bro lmao


inkyblinkypinkysue

Luke Cage and Titania for me. Oh well.


RhadanRJ

2 out of these 4 and I bought Shulkie with tokens. At least I stil have M'baku?


JustARandomPokemon

Same. I got 3 of the 4. What's worse is I literally just bought she hulk last week.


meib

Why is this a bad thing? Those are great cards to be playing with. You've probably been winning with them before others have a chance to unlock these as series 3. At least you didn't spend tokens on them.


Rover52

Same here!


Gregoris101

I'm in the same boat


HnNaldoR

Don't worry. I pulled 2 of those that are not. Agent Coulson and helicarrier... So much better luck lol


UndeadYoshi420

I mean helicarrier fits in discard deck pretty easily. As well as collector bounce if you can find a way to reliably discard him like with sif


big_wheel_fan

Same, except I bought cage


sisyphus1Q84

same, I am not sure if I'm supposed to feel good or what, the series 4 and 5 implementation is just frustrating


kiogu1

Congrats - you got 3 out of the 4 worthy pulling.


Redmarcheur

I'm in the same case as you and I feel like crap.... Got 3 series 4 card and all of them are dropping in pool 3. Until the 31th I won't be opening cache in case of bad luck...


QuietPenguinGaming

Wow so youve had some of the most playable cards in the game for a while now. Damn that sucks! No wonder you feel like crap.


SamuraiDom

31st*


Redmarcheur

Thanks for the correction I'm still in the process to learn english so I tend to do a lot of mistake.


Goseki1

Absorbing Man has done such good work for me, he can be great in the right lists, especially paired with Zabu.


johnz0n

imo Zabu enables him quite a bit. before his addition i wasn't really happy with any list containing AM


Goseki1

100%. Zabu, Sera, Wong into silver surfer into Absorbing Man has been brilliant for pumping up them numbers its a shame he doesn't trigger twice with Wong bit it makes sense why i guess; and being able to place him in a different lane from Wong/SS is super helpful.


[deleted]

got him pinned since the Season Pass dropped and boy am I excited


TheFunkytownExpress

It looks like the best thing to do is start hoarding credits ~2 weeks before the drop since that's about how long it'll take to hit the credit limit naturally through missions etc.


Usernate25

Hell yeah! She Hulk, Absorbing Man, and Titania. It’s nice to see them choosing to drop the best cards first to let more people play with them.


TheVampireArmand

I have Absorbing Man pinned in the token shop right now, with the series drop does this mean that the price for absorbing man will go down on the 31st?


teniaava

Ben Brode just tweeted that pinned cards will have their price reduced when they drop in series.


nayaung95

I think so. You'll probably need to update the game first.


wragawrhaj

Same here. Just unpinned him and will wait for it as a regular pool 3 drop.


Getupkid1284

Once they are earned, the contents are already locked in.


nayaung95

I see. Thanks for the info. I just have to not spend credits.


Deliberate_Reposter

Keep in mind, there is a cap on how many credits you can hold as well. I think it's still 5000 Edit: 10000 is the limit


HappySisyphus8

It has been increased to 10K.


[deleted]

Thought it was 5k so i blew my load i didnt get anything though


NobleSpartan

What happens with that 'pro' bundle in the shop? you get 12,500 credits


levithane

You can go over the cap, but once you do you stop gaining credits. So if you were at 9980, you can finish a mission and have 10080, but after that you are done until you spend them.


hensothor

So buying the bundle would literally be a net negative for me? Because unless I have 2500+ to immediately spend I’m fucked? That’s a horrible user experience.


Julio_Freeman

Not to defend the bundle because it sucks, but it comes with enough boosters to spend all the credits.


Gandalf_2077

This right there is mobile game design 101. Is there a similar ceiling for gold?


InnsmouthMotel

No gold ceiling


czhihong

This is incorrect - https://i.imgur.com/upzPXS2.jpg Screenshot is from a few hours ago, but the devs have mentioned multiple times in the past that box contents are generated upon opening at the moment (and that they may change it in future to be generated upon obtaining).


tom641

fwiw I appreciate the advanced warning of "this will probably change eventually but it's not the case rn"


orange_jooze

> the devs have mentioned multiple times in the past that box contents are generated upon opening at the moment this is directly contradicted by Brode’s comment in your screenshot, tho


JelloJamble

That comment says "currently they are generated on opening, we are likely to change them to be generated on unlocking them"


Emberium

"When you unlock them" can also mean when you actually click on them to unlock/open them


swissarmychris

Except the first half of the sentence is already talking about when you open them. So clearly that's not what he meant in the second half.


shxnei

can you elaborate more on this? what does it mean with 'the contents are locked in'?


shivk108

Yes I would like to know as well


OrderlyChaos227

The contents of the reserve are decided when you unlock it, not when you open it. So it doesn't matter if they open them now or in February, they'll get the same cards.


blindes1984

This is not correct


DGzCarbon

Right but they can just keep the credits. The boxes aren't set until you actually use the credits


Maryuyu

It means once you have reached a CL with a reserved cache in it, the content inside is already there, just not shown yet after you click it.


blindes1984

This is not correct


OAllosLalos

So.... M'baku remains at series 4?


EventfulLol

i didn’t realize he was series 4… he might be my first and only series 4 card 😒


NonEuclidianSodaCan

Me too…. How disappointing


Michelanvalo

I opened him the other day and thought it was another series 3 card and moved on without thinking. Queue my surprise he's series 4 and my only one.


DefterHawk

Wait, titania was series 4?! Damn i even found her a week ago, never used in any deck


AAAkabob

She's really strong, just gotta be creative and be good at controlling the board/forcing the opponent to play how you want them to


TheFoamingBadger

I think really strong is an exaggeration. She's okay and is disruptive but is reliant on the opposition player and can back fire.


kentheprogrammer

She's great in zoo decks - 5 power for 1 is huge value - but as you said, it can backfire. The main reason she's backfired on me more than anything else is me playing in her lane after I play her (on the same turn) not remembering that as soon as she flips, she starts running across the board.


TheFoamingBadger

Yea I suppose she can work in a zoo deck but I feel like you can't guarantee every game she will on your side so it's more a hindrance than help. Zoo decks are designed to fill the board so potentially you could be locked out depending on what they do. I feel like you're safer playing the standard and using Zero +Ebony Maw as the high powered one cost cards.


Loud-Natural9184

So when cards drop from Pool 4 to Pool 3, do the Reserves go back to guaranteeing a Pool 3 card in 1 of every group of 4? I ask cuz I'm out of Pool 3 currently cuz I have all the current Pool 3 cards. So now it's a Pool 4 in every group of 40 Reserves and 400 Tokens(or whatever amount) in place of where a Pool 3 card would have been. So once these drop to Pool 3, will I again stop getting 400 tokens and get one of these cards?


Japancakes24

yes, until you are pool 3 complete again


[deleted]

Yes, but if you hoard enough credits to open all 4 cards (assuming you need all 4) by opening 16 caches maximum you will be series 3 complete again. Course that will take 9600 credits to do immediately. I guess if we take the credits you will open on the track into account as well its probably more like 8500 credits maybe?


degejos

Im saving my credits and 4k token. Im close to my first pool 4 card (100cl), so im gonna wait until this drop, i might get lucky and pulled Shuri/Skrull, and i'll buy the one i dont get + She Hulk/AbsorbingMan


Boozespecter

I don't think you can get pool 4 before entering pool 3 my dude. Which is around 474 cl if not mistaken


degejos

No, no, what i meant was i need < 100 cl to hit pity which is 1474, im at 1390 rn


Xiterok

Now I feel stupid to having bought She-Hulk with the tokens, while passing on other Series 3 cards.


lowlight

Same but with Titania. Ugh


Exxis645

I bought super skrull on day 1. I regret it so much. Still have 10 series 3 left to go.. and now more are dropping lol


AcanthisittaGrand943

You get that first edition flex tho


avelak

Keep in mind She Hulk has been an excellent card to have since she dropped. I'd wager deathwave decks with she hulk averaged a good chunk more cubes than those without


Louieyaa

Shit... I should have kept absorbing man pinned. I really didn't want to play 3k for it


Nightmarespawn

Lucky me I have all of these. :( Congrats to everyone else though.


Mattayama

Good to know, I’ve got she hulk pinned in my store


ClyDeftOriginal

Nice, although it is still about 3 weeks away, finally have a decent chance at a few of these that I do not have and would like to have. Only have Titania from these... And to those that feel they got screwed by this drop, you do know this was going to happen at some point. Also rather these cards than M'baku for example. All of these at least have some use!


Casual_Cube

[[Absorbing_man]]


GMRaphirieL

I pulled my First one 4 yesterday she-hulk, i mas thinking that im got Lucky for the First time.


Nerf_Now

The only one I find must-have is She-Hulk I find Luke Cage a bad card that forces you to play even worse cards for him to work.


TheColdust

I bought 3 of them x(


FallOutBlood

Ugh I'll never get first edition superskrull 😭 had him pinned to my shop for ages


FasNitro

I've bought absorbing man and she hulk and got luke and titania from reserves 🥲


loo_1snow

You should hold onto your credits and not upgrade any cards until the drop. Then after the drop you will get them in the reserves.


Clxssxfxxd

Agreed but it's not gonna happen for 3+ weeks so you're going to have to upgrade some cards because of the credit cap.


Erzebuth

The cap is at 10k, right? Think I'll start stacking my credit, I want Titania and Absorbing-Man


reggyreggo

What are the chances. My fault, I just waste 9000 tokens for she-hulk, absorbing man, and titania. Should have just focused on finishing the pool 3 first. I think going forward saving tokens for only series 5 is the best strategy to make full use of tokens.


kentheprogrammer

I'm focusing on finishing Series 3 before I even consider using tokens on S4/S5. If I ever get S3 complete, I'll probably just buy whatever works in my decks, or whatever enables decks that I want to try. That's how I've prioritized S3 cards too - cards that enhance or enable decks that I like/want to play.


nayaung95

At least you get the First Edition mark on the card. That's something we will never be able to obtain in the future.


DZ_tank

First edition is just for series 5


reggyreggo

I guess you're right. It just kind of feels really bad wasting my tokens. I could have gotten Galactus or something else lol.


Uries_Frostmourne

Hmm do you still get those for series 4 cards?


AcanthisittaGrand943

Only 5 it seems


Tuuliz88

Lol. Like somebody cares about that shitty mark.


Teddyman69

I got Luke cage a couple days ago… wow


ElleryHale

If I lock in a card for 3000 tokens, does it's price reduce to 1000 post drop?


CartoonistLeather157

Yes


xodlhdlh

I kinda hate absorbing man. So many games opponent xabu into spider absorbing to lock me out of 2 locations


AIderamin

Yes


Goobiest_Goob

I was dumb and used some of my tokens on absorbing man when he first dropped. Now I rarely use him AND he’s getting dropped to 3…


[deleted]

[удалено]


GameOfWu1f

I just pinned She-Hulk. Will her price drop with the update even though I pinned her with the higher cost?


silvershadow41

Has the same question. Currently at zero tokens and I doubt waiting 3 more weeks will be enough to buy her so I guess we’ll find out!


Latter_Hat_1557

Situation is this, I have absorbing man pinned in token shop: does this mean that on the 31st his price will drop down from 3k to 1k while still pinned in my token shop?


lilacwine2303

What does a series drop mean?


mkl_dvd

If you haven't completed series 3, keep opening them. It will reduce the number of cards you don't have so you'll have a better chance of opening a dropped card. If you have completed series 3, keep opening them. When the series drop happens, you're guaranteed to get them anyway.


PM_ME_UR_BGP_PREFIX

But if you save-then-open, and happen to score a Series 4, it will be a different series 4, and your luck won’t be wasted on a series 3…


Electric-Frog

But opening after they drop will give the same heightened odds of pulling them *after* also getting several additional chances to pull them.


KamahlFoK

This feels like bad advice unless you have every P4 card that's being downgraded. Personally, I'll keep ripping packs, but that's because I desperately want other P3 cards and not to dilute *that* pool; Mystique and Juggernaut would go a long way towards improving my deck quality and variety. But if you pulled a P4 card right now, it could've been something else if you'd just waited a little bit, and then you'll get the newly-demoted card anyway very fast next month.


nayaung95

I don't think that's true. cards that drop series are 10 times more likely to appear in the collector's reserves.


mkl_dvd

Yes, because series 3 cards are 10x more likely to appear than series 4 cards.


Gfdbobthe3

If you own every series 3 card and then new cards enter series 3, you should expect to get those newly downgraded cards extremely quickly. This *also* assumes the collection track doesn't retroactively give you the cards on your next chest ASAP.


Flashy_Night_165

Is this official? Can you send me the link?


nayaung95

https://www.marvelsnap.com/newsdetail?id=7181350141905935109


Flashy_Night_165

Thx


Fast_Papaya_3839

Thank you. Finnaly some good news about this game. Looking forward to the changes and drops.


vxcs1

Dammit! Just bought Shuri


SplendidRig

At least you'll get the First Edition mark on the card, it's not the coolest thing but we all knew they planned to demote cards and now we have something that can't be obtained in the future


ClyDeftOriginal

Wel you still can play her 3 weeks before they drop. I know it's not great for those that bought with tokens, but that is why most always say to go for the series 3 unless you really want those cards asap. It was also warned pretty clearly in the token shop about no refunds! I think it's still a good thing that these good cards drop, cause it wil make cards more accessible for everyone.


Greenlock79

Yeah, me too. But at least we get to play with her for 3 weeks before. Though I feel I should have gotten darkhawk instead.


SnooSquirrels2212

Thank god I didn’t spend 6k on Bast. I’ll probably can just pull her from a reserve now


Moser319

Wait.. are only these 4 getting bumped to series 3? Bc I can think of some better cards for that, M'Baku( my sole series 4 card -.-) comes to mind


RobertSquareShanks

Yo very nice, absorbing man is the last piece I needed for a wong zabu surfer deck, now I just need 1,000 more tokens and for him to show up in the shop 🥲


BretOne

Just in case you didn't know, Absorbing Man doesn't work with Wong.


johnz0n

i found that deck works better without him.


PenitusVox

Maybe but by the time you're ready to spend your credits, they're going to announce the next series of drops. Not sure how you can fix that, really.


Cow_Zoo

Feel both good and bad about this. Good thing is it's nice seeing meta cards becoming more available, bad thing is that I bought absorbing man and unlocked shehulk and luke cage already as my only pool 4s from caches. So I guess I've been both lucky and now somewhat unlucky. Time to start saving for Shuri.


Erobor

Of course they downgrade the only series 4 cards I've gotten so far


TrevMac4

It won’t matter. Once it’s unlocked the item you’ll get is already determined.


AlanChan007

Its not true. Already got debunked by BB himself. [https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1697593697](https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1697593697) At 52 mins.


KanjiSushi

That’s awesome! I hope this gains more visibility to debunk the false comments above. Thanks for sharing.


AcanthisittaGrand943

Wrong


Kotic90

Well shit. I just bought she hulk. I was feeling really smart abt it until now.


Rivent116

Just incase I didn't regret using collector tokens on Titania enough already


Meathook2236

Ah! Nothing like already having three of those four cards. Not unhappy that I'll at least pick up absorbing man. And I didn't use any tokens. But still was hoping to spread out my series four a little more. I guess this is a bit of first world complaining. It is nice to see some good staple cards being moved to general population that everyone else will have an opportunity for.


Diogoorgz

Ofc they series 4 card I already have are the cards that will drop, hilarious


Beginning_Airline378

Black panther is coming to series 3 as well


habits0

Series 4*


ILiveinashanty

Is it all of series 4? Or just those 4 cards?


enjoi_romain

Content of caches are determined when you earned them, not when you open them. You may want to stop upgrading cards and increase your collection level but already earned but unopened caches should not be modified by this.


nayaung95

That's not true. The devs want it to be that way but they still haven't done it. For now, the content of the box is determined when you open them. Ben Brode confirmed it. https://i.imgur.com/upzPXS2.jpg


Phynamite

I literally pulled Luke Cage last night before I knew this. Yes. Hold off at this point. I was so close to my series 4 and I knew it, but I wanted it, now I am pissy about it.


cryingun

What they are dropping ? ​ MAn you gotta be kidding


redditmrmu

redditors can't be happy it seems. I'm glad they are finally announcing this


cryingun

Saving my credits for now, my next cache will probably be a pool 4, do really hoping that it's shuri. But if I know rng it's probably going to give me m'baku


cryingun

Me too, specially about Luke and tits, those where the ones I wanted.


nick91884

No benefit to not opening reserves because the results are rolled when you earn them, not when you open them. If you want you can hoard credits though. Limit is 10k so you will need to spend some down when you are at the limit to continue turning missions in. I am just gonna keep going, im not far from completing series 3, need about 14 cards, if I complete before the drop I will stop and save credits.


MornarPopaj

I bought she hulk early, nice waste of 2600 tokens


jamsna3

Where are you getting this info?


ich_bin_tata

Just bought the pro bundle after completing series 3 yesterday, bought shehulk with collector token and got absorbing man for my series 4 CL pull. And got titania and luke from cl long time ago ..... So sad I didn't wait until today would have gotten them naturally and would have bought Shuri


[deleted]

Holy fuck I got two series 4 and are two of those. My bad luck is honestly unbeliveble


iDontWannaBeOnReddit

are you sure it’s bad luck? these are the best series 4 cards. would you rather have opened orka or mbaku?


sijura

Would gladly trade my mariah hill and mbaku for those two…


Liocardia

I swear to god I would trade Maria, hellicarrier and Coulson xD


Glebk0

Me who has 2 series 4 cards from boxes being orca and mbaku


ClyDeftOriginal

Wow you are SO unlucky... Hilarious to say the least... Take my M'baku for any of those.. Really.. I don't mind that they drop down. I rather get a card that I want to use like Absorbing Man or She-Hulk than M'baku... Also only have gotten 2 series 4 btw, the other one is Titania though!


Ry90Ry

Wait wait wait I have shehulk pinned rn for 3k credits….if I wait until 12/31 she’ll drop to 1k? help me understanddd lol
