In this episode of the "SNAP Material" podcast, Jesse and Evan dive into the brand-new "Amazing Spider-Season", which launched on September 3, 2024. The hosts begin by breaking down the season's premier card, Symbiote Spider-Man. This four-cost, six-power card introduces the highly anticipated "Activate" mechanic, allowing players to merge Symbiote Spider-Man with the lowest-cost card at a location and copy its text as though it just revealed. Evan shares his first-hand experience with the card, explaining how the merge worked with Colossus, retaining Colossus's ongoing abilities. The hosts compare the new card to Hulk Buster in its merging ability, but with more strategic flexibility due to its Activate trigger. They speculate on the possibilities of pairing Symbiote Spider-Man with cards like Devil Dinosaur and discuss whether the merge mechanic could lead to boosted power and multiple ongoing effects.

The episode also covers other key cards from the season, including Silver Sable, a one-cost card that steals two power from the top card of your opponent's deck, and Madame Web, who enables players to move one card from her location each turn. Evan excitedly talks about the potential of creating move-based decks with cards like Phoenix Force and Vulture, while Jesse emphasizes the strategic depth these cards bring. Arana, another one-cost card, offers a boost by giving the next card played +2 power and moving it to the right. The hosts discuss the synergy this creates with move-based decks and the potential to power up cards like Human Torch and Spider-Man 2099.

The episode wraps up with a discussion on new locations, such as Brooklyn Bridge, which restricts card placement to every other turn, and Otto’s Lab, where playing a card pulls a random card from the opponent’s hand. Jesse outlines his strategies for taking advantage of these locations, including using Legion to lock down Brooklyn Bridge. Both agree that these new locations will add a fun dynamic to the season’s meta.
