Zabu and Surfer had really been holding the Mad Titan back.”As a result, Thanos’ has been changed from 6/11 power to 6/10, though Second Dinner has acknowledged it won’t “dramatically impact” the success of Thanos-oriented decks.Thanos has been one of Snap‘s strongest performers of late, though the patch has also dialed back the power of She-Hulk and Quinjet.

While Red Skull is also being targeted for his synergy with Shuri and Taskmaster, Second Dinner has said the changes to his power and ongoing ability should be “mostly a buff to the base card usage”.Elsewhere, patch 13.13 has also brought welcome news to players lagging behind, as anyone who hasn’t finished Series 3 of the game will now earn four times the usual amount of Tokens.Series 3 cards have been moved into a separate section of the in-game shop, and each month players can choose one of the series’ cards to unlock for free.As for the Token Shop, it will only offer Series 4, Series 5 and Ultimate Variant cards going forward.
