@KMBestMS @GreGor_2424 @MARVELSNAP People blamed Activision on a lot of the problems they had with 2010's Blizzard, and while I'm sure Acti/Kotick were responsible for some of those issues... people just didn't want to believe Blizzard themselves could be the ones fumbling so often.

Pokemon TCG probably about to kill the dwindling hype I have left for it. Was really hoping for a Silver/Gold or Team Rocket set. I’ll give it a chance but, really surprised this is what they landed on…

[ninaisnoob @ninaisnoob]

looks like we’re getting gen 4 for the new set of Pokemon pocket.

I FREAKING CALLED IT IN MY NEWS VIDEO WHEN I TALKED ABOUT THE TEMPLE DISPLAY BOARD!!

also, i’m SO excited for Gible, one of my favourite Pokemon 🥹🤍

[Oban @TheLochKing]

Saw this being played on @OrdinaryHarry stream today and it’s 💯 one of the most fun decks you can run right now. I love when a new card release can breathe new life into forgotten or niche cards like Daken & Frigga here. @MARVELSNAP

[Oban @TheLochKing]

@LaurenWhatevs Yep, High Voltage is so great for this. Proving Grounds is just people that don't snap for 8, or they do and seem to get frustrated and punish you by staying, or all sorts of delays for hardly any gain. I love how in Pokemon I can just do v.s. AI challenges too.

[Oban @TheLochKing]

None of yesterday was palatable, and yes the salute is only a gesture - real lives were immediately impacted in harrowing ways - but I fear it's a rallying cry for the very worst that is to come. So many Americans are gleefully covering their eyes to their past, present & future.

Sounds good! I've seen some suggest this could lead to changes in Snap's monetisation/adjacent issues, and I would love to agree, but I don't think history supports that. I'm sure publisher pressure exists, but SD has a lot of data for what sells and what they can get away with.

[Second Dinner @seconddinner]

MARVEL SNAP is back online in the U.S. But to make sure this NEVER happens again, we’re working to bring more services in-house and partner with a new publisher. This is the start of a new era for MARVEL SNAP.

We know this probably leaves you with even more questions than answers. We appreciate your patience, but in the meantime enjoy playing MARVEL SNAP.

We’ll continue to update with more information as soon as possible!

[Oban @TheLochKing]

I think it's pretty clear now the devs really didn't know (although it seems higher up the chain may have?). It seems like the TikTok ban might be ending already, so hopefully Snap will be back for impacted players quite soon.

[Oban @TheLochKing]

This is INSANE, did Second Dinner know and not warn anyone? I hope they are able to resolve this very quickly for US players, because this is the last thing Snap needs to be dealing with right now 🤦‍♂️

[RegisKillbin @RegisKillbin]

Oh hey, Marvel Snap, the game I play for a job, just got banned in the United States because of its corporate connection to TikTok. No idea when it'll be back.

Cool. Cool Cool Cool.

I have something I would REALLY love to show you right now, but it's not quite ready...

[Oban @TheLochKing]

.@marvelsnap fans stuck without access in the US, if you like Marvel, and you like cards, and you like a lot of things that really have nothing to do with cards at all, do I have the game for you.

[Oban @TheLochKing]

RT @seconddinner: Unfortunately, MARVEL SNAP is temporarily unavailable in U.S. app stores and is unavailable to play in the U.S.
