Has it happened to you that you are sure of a victory only for your rival to ruin everything using the Galactus card? We are not the only ones who have screamed in frustration at this situation and the developers have finally decided to do something about it. Following the changes in the Tuesday, June 13, 2023 update, the Galactus card works differently in Marvel Snapbut is it enough?

Until yesterday, this was a 6/2 card with the effect “if this is your only card here, destroy all other locations.” Let’s see how it changed and if it will have any effect on the metagame.

Galactus Card Changes in Marvel Snap

After the update on Tuesday, June 13, this is the new Galactus letter.

• Cost: 6
• Can: 7
• Effect: “Upon Reveal: If you’re gaining this location and this is your only card here, destroy all other locations.”

This is a bit confusing. Doesn’t this change make this card more powerful and keep it just as frustrating?

According to the developer’s statement, the “earn this location” condition is a restriction that will force players to create a different strategy for Galactus, such as using Hobgoblin previously. They also say that they reserve the right to keep making changes to this card if these changes aren’t enough to balance it.

The text is confusing. It is necessary to be earning the location BEFORE playing Galactus, but some may think that it is enough to be winning it after playing it. They must manage to get the opponent to have negative numbers with Hobgoblin or Green Goblin on their side or power it up with another card like Claw or Mr. Fantastic if they want to play Galactus there.
