Marvel Snap's Sanctum Showdown: A New Limited-Time Mode

Get ready for a magical duel in Marvel Snap's new limited-time mode, Sanctum Showdown! Running until March 11th, this event introduces a unique gameplay experience with altered snapping mechanics and a focus on rapid point accumulation.

How to Play:

  • First to 16 Points Wins: Forget the usual six-turn structure. Victory goes to the first player to reach 16 points.
  • The Sanctum Location: This crucial location awards the most points each turn, making it a prime target for strategic play.
  • Dynamic Snapping: Starting on turn three, you can snap once per turn to boost the Sanctum's point value by one, creating constant shifts in momentum.

Rewards and Progression:

  • Scrolls: Entering a match costs one Scroll, but winning earns you another. You begin with 12 Scrolls and gain two more every eight hours. Additional Scrolls can be purchased for 40 Gold.
  • Sorcerer Rank and Charms: Every match, win or lose, increases your Sorcerer Rank and awards Charms. These Charms can be spent in the Sanctum Shop on cosmetics and new cards.

Strategic Considerations:

  • Banned Cards and Locations: To maintain balance, certain cards and locations are prohibited in Sanctum Showdown. Abilities affecting final scores are also disabled, along with cards like Debrii to prevent overpowered strategies.
  • Exclusive Card Acquisition: This mode offers a unique opportunity to acquire Laufey, Gorgon, and Uncle Ben before their March 13th Token Shop release. Participate in Portal Pulls for a chance to unlock these cards and other Series 4 or 5 cards.
