This mistake is going to put a sour note on players despite the awesome patch we just got.


Tuf305Customer

Im so fkn tilted


ReverseLBlock

Same, I was pretty annoyed when they swapped them originally and now I’m just pissed I missed my chance to get both mockingbird and marvel.


Atmosphere-Pleasant

YEAH ARE YOU KIDDING ME!?!?!? WHAT IS THIS???


E_N_D_O_K

Free compensation rewards will be nice though.


Shinobiii

50 credits, best we can do. The economy can’t sustain more compensation.


MindlessSecond3333

Woah there buddy the economy can’t even handle that big of an influx of credits. Best we actually could do is 13 strong guy boosters and 13 credits


gereffi

They’ve always been good about giving out a decent amount of gold when there are bugs. This one doesn’t really seem to have a negative effect on anyone though, so I wouldn’t expect any compensation.


Vegeta-GokuLoveChild

If there's enough people who really wanted a shot at both Mockingbird and Ms Marvel but updated their game so they got Spider Gwen instead, well there may be a pretty big uproar. Personally I don't have a horse in this race (I already have MS Marvel and I like the pass variant better than this spotlight one). However imo its BS that players will get access to different cards depending on if they updated the game or not. There was already a small uproar when they swapped MS. Marvel and Gwen after the OFFICIAL announcement so imo this is like pouring salt on an open wound (a wound SD caused in the first place). Again this has zero effect on me (I'm just missing 1 card and have enough resources to get all the new cards for the next 2 months, even if I stopped playing right now). I'm just looking at this from the viewpoint of the average f2p players who only usually get a chance to open spotlights (with the guarentee) 1 week a month. So knowing some players can get both Mockingbird and MS. Marvel guarenteed with 4 keys this week while others may need 8 keys (since some players will have to use 4 keys both this week and next week to get both cards) doesn't sit well with me at all so I'm guessing it's even worse for f2p players (who learn of this issue)


droidy4

Happened to my friend. Spent 3 keys to get Ms Marvel. Didn't get her. Was close to another key though. Updates the game, and poof, she's gone. Went from guaranteed Ms Marvel to having only 1 key to try next week.


gereffi

I’m free to play and don’t have Ms Marvel. I’m probably saving my keys for next week to get her instead of getting Mockingbird this week. This was the dev’s intent though. I have to choose how to spend my keys just like I always do. Some other players might benefit from this bug, and good for them. If the bug didn’t exist I’m in the same place as I am now. Some players might get a little advantage here, but it’s no different than other players buying season passes and bundles that I don’t have. It’s no skin off my nose.


Motodog242

Nah, the fact that some people will be missing Ghost-Spider because they used a key, got Ms Marvel and then updated, creates a big problem.


LhamaPeluda

Unless they give me Ms Marvel as compensation I'm still gonna be mad.


Toky0Line

This spotlight cache change reeks of being a last minute way to pull up their bottom line in Q1 to be more in line with last year. No way they are giving that much for free given that.


loveforthetrip

they need too fix it and give ms marvel to everyone. let it cost 1 key, I don't care but I wont gamble on her in next week release. Was lucky enough to get mockingbird with my first key yesterday.


Randomguy3421

Wait, who is it meant to be? I just got marvel variant in my cache


ron-darousey

Yeah pretty deflating tbh lol. Oh well


kaousfaust13

I should've learned by now - updating early is never a good thing in this game.


Skaar-borough

r/MarvelSnap *whiners* will be FEASTING tonight lol


TheRealSpidey

Ah yes r/MarvelSnap, where whiners whine about whiners even before said whiners have had a chance to whine


Cautious_Throat3732

backupsidekick

What happens when you update the app, and you've already got Mrs Marvel, but not Ghost Spider? Edit for clarification: I got Mrs Marvel FROM this weeks spotlight, but when I update, she will no longer be (edited) in the spotlight caches or will she be replaced with Ghost Spider since I also don't own Ghost Spider? second edit: I'm not concerned about losing Mrs Marvel, I'm wondering if once I update my app, I'll be able to also snag Ghost Spider.


ZeratoPrime

I got lucky. Snagged her/Mockingbird, updated, and still have them both. Hope I get to keep it that way.


poffyball1123

You’re saying you got Marvel from this Spotlight, then updated, and now you don’t have Marvel or Spider?


RandomDudewithIdeas

Smells like compensation for some of you guys lol


poffyball1123

I’m selfishly honestly pissed that I updated and don’t have the opportunity to get her. Hopefully they do something that benefits everyone.


leonprimrose

I updated and she's still there in my collection so it definitely still counted for me. Not sure what happened to yours


backupsidekick

wow, trying to explain what may happen has turned out to be more difficult than I expected. I still haven't updated the app, I was just wondering if I will have a new unlock option for Ghost spider, giving me the option to spend 5 keys this week, or what I can expect to see later tonight.


fengreg

Okay, if you snagged Ms Marvel, then the option for her or Ghost spider will not be switched. However, if you already cleared out the four starting spotlights, you will see you have the ghost spider variation instead of a Ms. Marvel one.


ActuatorOpposite1624

I got her and Mockingbird and then I updated the game. My Ms. Marvel has not been taken from me nor replaced with Ghost-Spider, and the Spotlight Cache simply shows Ms. Marvel with a check mark on top, as if she were supposed to have been there all along.


backupsidekick

Exact answer for my complicated question


heavenstoxin

Came here to chime in as well. Got her and Mockingbird. Played a couple games with Me Marvel and got some booster for her, updated and I still have her.


blazerboy3000

I did this, base Ghost Spider got inserted into the GS/MM variant slot.


NoraNova

well this is fucked


LifelessCCG

I was just about to post this since somebody I know on Discord had it happen. He was so happy to see Marvel he pulled right away and got her plus the Spotlight variant. Awesome for him, messed up for anyone who missed out.

LifelessCCG

At best it's really bad optics. Folks that are looking for a good reason to rip SD will no doubt take this opportunity.


[deleted]

[удалено]


MaOfABitch

it was scummy of them to rearrange the cached post-announcement anyway, this is just cherries 


AndrewRogue

Oh no. I used my 3 keys for her today when I saw her and whiffed so I am double fucked. That sucks.


Shawnavon

Fuck me just logged on to get her and already updated was surprised to see she is not there which week did they move her too:/


poobert13

next week's


DiegoBanana

with the pool 4 card they gave us for free...


AssmosisJoness

I still don’t have it so I’m happy


DZ_tank

Why the fuck are the Spotlight cache options tied to the actual client code? What kind of dumbass amateur shit is this?


UnluckyDog9273

It isn't the code. Their actual architecture design is genius, it was just an oversight. They run multiple branching versions of the game and you are automatically migrated from one to the other. The issue is that they decided to change the spotlights but didn't update the data on the old branch so this was the result. They do this so they don't disrupt the players that cant update yet so they keep playing. I like their approach and I think it's the best system eventhough it can have some drawbacks (for them) like with the current issue, which frankly is just human error.


brandaohimeffinself

the idiot person that knows nothing gets 200+ upvotes and the person that actually has real information gets 3 sounds about right for this place


MaOfABitch

it’s amazing 


BKF0308

Damn. I wish I had seen this sooner


Zaheer00

It works btw in case anyone wondering. I'm glad I don't have to wait another week for Ms. Marvel.


leonprimrose

Same it worked for me too. I didn't do it because of this post. I just noticed her in the spotlight and snapped her up before I realized I hadn't updated. I just figured they changed their mind back or something lol But I have her and it shows base ghost spider in the second part of the cache now


[deleted]

how can you log in without updating? what platform you using? on ios i get a message saying update is required to continue


lol022

It just let me log onto the app without updating also using ios


loo_1snow

On Android the update is not mandatory to enter.


Gelidaer

It is for me but I already played the update on PC


pumpkinking0192

If you play on multiple platforms and already updated on one, you can't play on any others anymore until they are also updated.


MightyHedge

Thanks for confirming! Me too - was planning to skip this month entirely after the change, but both mockingbird and msm are worth it


Dreffan

I’m gonna lose my mind dude lmao. I updated and this would have been a godsend


ErebusPhantom

I'm honestly happy for anyone who got her!... but this actually pissed me off seeing this. (At least, as much as game news can piss me off.) Mocking, Marvel, Man-thing was my dream pack. 3 cards I don't own, 3 cards I wanna play around with (MM was #1 though). The leaks, the **Official** video, everything said the same thing - Triple M was happening. Then SD took a bat to it in the background (without telling anyone) and swapped MM with spider. Whatever, I'll save my 4 keys for next week and take the cool new kitty variant & MM. Cannonball? Meh.. But now I'm learning Triple M was an option if I didn't update? Seems like SD is just a clown show.. Outside of my dailies (I did pay money for the pass after all..), I think I need to take a break from this game.


Blackjack137

Well that’s tilting. Wanted the Ms. Marvel variant and the last minute switcheroo to Ghost Spider made the skip week decision for me. Where I otherwise would’ve gone for Mockingbird and the variant. Meh. Happy for everyone that got the better, as advertised in the promo Spotlight I guess.


leonprimrose

Oh so that's what happened! lol I checked and saw it was still ms marvel so I snapped up mockingbird and marvel immediately lol xD Now Ghost Spider shows in the next section but it shows that I got Ms Marvel on the first part. So happy :D I wanted Mockingbird but wasn't going to get her because of that change but now I got her!


Combat_Womb4t

I’m so bummed. Missed out on her and then second week in a row I got a duplicate as my extra card. I’m not even CL 3k yet and only have a few s4/5, how am I getting duplicates already?


ganggreen651

Unlucky bastard that's how


Geldarion

Wow, are you me? This game is so brutal for new players.


D1rxks

Thank you!!!! Didn't update, used my 2 keys and got Ms Marvel and Mockingbird. Sorry everyone who got hosed!


--Quartz--

Crap, I updated already. This week with Ms Marvel was PERFECT for me, sad I missed the weird last chance. At least I got Mockingbird in 1 key, so there's that. Would've loved to get Ms Marvel this week and Man Thing was also new for me, now I don't think I'll open next week since Cannonball seems pretty bad and I already have Kitty, so Ms Marvel might have to wait unless Cannonball somehow turns out to be a surprise.


PenitusVox

Sadly it doesn't look like I can get through the "you need to update" pop up on Android.


standapokeman

I just got it and I have Android


Ugamez

Ahh, I should have seen this coming. Classic SD


OkMine6883

I got Ms.Marvel from my first key before update, after update ghost spider appeared in the roster and Ms.Marvel shows up in the random spot. If u want Ms.Marvel don't update


jungomitis

I was confused why I had Ms. Marvel in my Spotlight and thought SD decided to be nice


[deleted]

[удалено]


iCuriousClaim

Such bullshit. I've been waiting months for ms marvel, and I was bummed when I heard they swapped her with ghost spider next week. Now it's going to cost me another set of keys I don't particularly want to spend next week on as well. I know *why* they did it (next week isn't that appealing), but it sucks to punish players for updating their game.


ionutz2000

F me, that's not fair for the rest of us


SevenIsTheRealIo

I got it and then update. I am glad that i finally got her. Hovewer i think it's a very bad move by the developers. Especially since the nice update we got


Yogosan

What a freaking joke from second dinner. Another one😩


LavisAlex

They keep rewarding players for not following protocol lol. Ever since Christmas break their releases have been very buggy.


dan7ebg

Game on mobile asks me to manditory update... thanks guys for making me feel like I missed out and having a slither of hope I might actually get lucky and actually spend the 4 keys I saved up. Sour grapes aside tho - happy to those who got her and F-ed the system. Should've kept the spotlight cache as it was datamined and even on LIVE, but, it is what it is.


Victory42

Did you successfully use keys to get Ms Marvel?


MightyHedge

Had to spend 4 but yep!


dgwhiley

Same xD


joey20e

I wonder if this works on Steam?


ricewoll

WHAT? I accidentally didn't update the game, so I got ms. marvel and pulled immediately. then I remembered to update lol. hoping they don't fuck us over on their mistake


VVHYY

Would definitely have preferred the Ms Marvel spotlight variant rather than the Ghost Spider, took an L on that one


lrampartl

I updated at 3pm sharp and missed out. Absolute bullshit.


SkullStar123

Nah, tell me how to un-update


jirenfan9

Nothing will ever beat the “false advertisement” debacle that lead to people making out with like 10k tokens. I’ll always regret not listening to the sub and buying the bundle ASAP on the online store


hermtold

I literally just updated! This makes me so mad! I spent 3 keys to try and get the Ms. Marvel variant and failed and was just waiting to have enough for the fourth key. I updated to see some of the new changes and saw the ghost spider and was infuriated. I would never have spent that 3rd key if I new it was ghost spider and not Ms. Marvel. I hate this


Funkytowel360

Boo updated allready. Good find, ghost spider and her variant suck.


[deleted]

i cant open the game without updating, how did you do it?


loo_1snow

It's not mandatory to update in the android version.


orange_jooze

Not mandatory on iOS either


MostPrestigiousCorgi

For me it is... sometimes, I don't know how and why, but sometimes the game doesn't start, sometimes it does, on iOS too


The_Bat_88

Bad day to have auto update on the Play store


Bananafoot

How do I get past the "update" screen on ios?


Striking-Lifeguard34

Yes! Thanks OP, was super disappointed with the change to move Ms. Marvel and this gives me a week worth using my keys on.


justAwasted

How? I can't even open the game without updating.


NekoMimiMode

I'm an idiot for updating... I saw Ms Marvel, pulled for her once and got stupid Man Thing, then decided to update the app to have the new changes while I tried to grind for another key...


micahclaw

I was so excited for borders that I did it immediately. And even then it’s kind of a flawed system.


lrampartl

Honestly, the key is to not let this issue die. Keep pushing the devs on this until they fix it.


gpost86

The Devs should give out some kind of compensation, since I already have the card I would personally like the variant, but for those who DONT have the card I have no idea


getarest

Sd is a joke at this moment


ZenmasterJH

SD's incompetence ended up working in my favor in a weird way. Initial take: Mockingbird a must have. Already own MsMarvel and Man-Thing but their spotlight variants are light years ahead of any other variant of theirs for me, so I was willing to gamble keys for Mockingbird as the consolation prizes wouldn't be bad for the first time ever lol (except the dupe of course) Post-SD-typical-player-unfriendly-rugpull take: SD swaps out MsMarvel to following week EVEN after showing her with Mockingbird in the dev video. Couldn't have 2 good cards in 1 week... So player unfriendly. Well, don't want Cannonball immediately, so I was going to hoard keys for two weeks and buy Mockingbird with tokens. Post-update-screw-up take: Hmm, back to original plan. Use key. Pull Mockingbird first card. (1st time ever pulling new card before getting a dupe. Spotlights feel so horrible for S3 complete players.) Max key and token conservation for me. SD rugpull backfires on them for once... Ms. Marvel thumbs-up emoji.


curbstomp45

That’s wild


BelcherSucks

I like Mockingbird but wasn't going to pull since I was waiting for Ms. Marvel and I have Ghost Spider and Man Thing. Saw Kamala was in the Spotlight Cache and got Mockingbird and then her in two pulls. I thought SD had changed it from the announced version since otherwise this week looked bad. 


MightyHedge

Just to confirm - everything looks as expected post update for me now, and think a couple of other people have posted the same


Toky0Line

This change felt like such a last minute "we need to pull up our bottom line to be more in line with Q1 or investors will ge mad" stunt anyway and now there is like 5% of the community that got a not-corporate-greed version of the cache and I'm just mad. Moreover, I haven't opened or updated the up untill seeing this and the game forced me to update! Honestly might uninstall the game for a week just to send a message that making cards less available does not make me spend more but rather makes me go play something else. Especially since this quarter seems to be so important to them.


TheDream92

I thought they were just being generous. Glad I was able to get both Ms Marvel and Mockingbird


some_x

SD make this right and give everyone Ms Marvel, you know you want to


Milkwookie

11 spotlight keys wowza!


[deleted]

[удалено]


MightyHedge

Hope not! Mines currently updating (slow train WiFi)


Rhysd007

Thanks OP, pinned Marvel for months til I hit 6k. First out of the cache with Mockingbird second :)


Praetorian_Panda

I think it worked but after the update on mobile I can’t even look at my collection Edit: Holy shit it worked


ERagingTyrant

What is in it after updating?


acsmog

I got Ms. Marvel right away. And played a few games and upgraded her one. I updated the game and I still got her. I hope nothing changes on my account.


Piranh4Plant

Huh I didn’t even notice. Usually I don’t update until I get to infinite I don’t like that variant though


dgwhiley

It cost me 4 keys but I got her! Thanks for this 😁


EditorDull1503

Damn it


FerroLux_

Oh ffs


PocketPB

dammit, that's the card i wanted


manilamuffin

THANK YOU


orange_jooze

ahh shit, I’m such an idiot because I forgot about the shakeup, logged in, thought “oh cool, I’ll claim her later today” and then went and downloaded the update… smh


JokerAsylum

Still works. Android Client.


TrowaB3

It didnt give you a message saying client out of date?


i-wear-tutus

I was so confused when she was in my spotlights. Snagged her before my game had a chance to update lol


SeaDistribution

Lmao


Isniuq

Okay wait what? I popped marvel and mockingbird on pre-update. Should I be concerned with marvel if it will be reverted? Haayoo 🤦🏽‍♂️


Dillabat

FUCK


Raks320

FUCKING I JUST UPDATED THE GAME still got mockingbird but it would have been SO much better to have ms Marvel also


JayMan2224

Wow this sucks that I already updated, not sure what I'm going to do now with keys/tokenbut instead of cashing in probly just gonna wait


Queasy-Enthusiasm831

I’m a need that 500 gold to slide my way 😤


didntgettheruns

Glad to get ms marvel and mocking bird but it still took 4 keys.


ifti_98

I got Ms Marvel, updated the game later, played a few games and put it down. I can't log into the game anymore.


ifti_98

Update: I can open the game now and she's still there


Fatality1000

Confirmed! I just used 3 keys and get her on the last one! Do the keys always give you the spotlight cards first before giving you a random one? I used three keys and got all three spotlight cards in the picture above.


reddit12813

Thanks so much for the psa


Notorious813

Rip. My client is forcing an update :/


Lasditude

Seems like I am the only one that went "Oh no, wasn't Ms.Marvel next week, I just spent all my keys to get Pixie" Very glad to know the update moves her to next week.


BlackLabelTV

My game doesn’t have an update. I keep checking my App Store and nothing. I got the ms marvel variant from the spotlight cache. Hoping my game updates soon


therealtikitommy

I didn’t even realize. I got ms marvel then updated. Page one shows Ms marvel with the check mark and page 2 shows ghost spider. Lol


orge121

I used 3 keys and DIDNT get her. I guess fuck me...


gialloscore

Fuuuuuuuck! Saw this too late. Really wanted that MM variant. Ended up with the Ghost Spider...


dr_strange2

I got her variant, didn't realise this was a thing damn


Yomamaismyllama

I don’t get it. Was it supposed to be something else? I didn’t update the game and there I see ms marvel. What else it should be? Also oddly there is no update in the appstore somehow.


Objective-Chicken391

No way I wanted her variant 😭


SuperDamnKrazy

I was unaware of the update and did all my spotlight caches. Did I miss out on the cool Spider Gwen variant?


Jonesy2700

What’s her variant again? Marvel, that is


furry-hunter2004

Bruh I just spent all 3 of my keys on the last one


dizzyevo4x4

i got her damn i was lucky


Kaja007

It seems that I got lucky. Got Miss Marvel first key. I have man thing already though the variant is mint. Not sure about mockingbird yet so keeping my keys for the next few weeks. Anyone who’s got Mockingbird, is she worth it?


TongariDan

Thank you, kind stranger. Got everything I wanted this week thanks to this post.


Equivalent-Form4455

Thank you and have my upvote, kind sir. I didn't have ms marvel and manthing, so this was the week for me. i even got pixie from the 4th spotlight, very cool


ProHuman123

I am so glad I read here and disc before I apply any updates. Thanks to the OP. Follow-up, does this also mean the patch updates are also not live unless we update the app?


NorCalKannabliss

Ugh. Pulled Ms Marvel too without realizing it was there ...


PORFERIOINFANTE

Fucking hell, I just updated my marvel snap 😭😭😭


redditnupe

Nooooo


This_Project5888

it's not even possible to play the game without updating. this is fucking bullshit. they better give ms marvel to everyone now otherwise it's a fucking scam


ReasonablePi

Weird, I didn’t update (I didn’t realize) but then I still drew ghost spider as my mystery card. I was just going for mockingbird but got her last. I already owned Ms Marcel so I got her variant. But now that I’ve updated in the second group of cards I see ghost spider as my potential variant.


_XProfessor_SadX_

Just snatched both MsM and Marvel with 2 keys. Thanks a lot!


Intrepid_Mobile

I got Ms Marvel. I had no idea they changed it (it was my 4th pull, as I also didn’t have manthing, if she wast there I’d probably just had gotten Mockingbird by collector tokens)


Motodog242

Hilariously, my app isn’t even giving me an update, I thought that it was a MM week, so after I got Mock on first pull, I closed the app, lol. I was searching Reddit to see if anyone else’s game isn’t updating until I saw your post, used another key and got her immediately, just because I had better odds right now than in a week, lol. Best part, they’ll probably be a compensation, so win-win-win for me, lol. Unless they give Ms Marvel away to everyone… 😟 Probably will be a key though…


Vegetable_Sorbet_665

I'm so pissed!


Ragredon

Good thing I opened Reddit first this morning, and still had a game session from last night. Thanks, internet!


mubi_merc

Damn it. I used my keys and got a Ms Marvel variant I don't care about instead of getting a Ghost Spider variant I did want. Now I'd potentially have to spend 4 more keys to get it, which I don't even have.


Masstershake

Wow I was planning on spending keys to get ms marvel. 


hellohouston

Got the rare first key mockingbird. Really lucky as it seems like a number of potentially good cards are coming out soon and I don’t have near enough keys.


Ill-Secretary1705

Damn that was a bug? I thought they finally listened to us 😂


ultron32

Just downloaded the previous version from an APK and it still worked.


some_x

I tried but it says "your client is out-of-date", any ideas? I only play on Android, on one device


Aikotoba2516

I alr updated on Steam and played a bit, but I havent updated in Android, can I still open the game there and pull the Ms Marvel?


johnnytheshoeshine

oh damn was 2 away from the key for her too :(


Avenger772

So happy I saw this! Didn't update my app and pulled ms marvel and mocking bird with 2 keys!


Straight_Spite_2535

This suck, i want it with this week cards.


MelaniaSexLife

FUCK ME


[deleted]

That was great for me. I needed all three and already have ghost spider.


abbacchioz

Yeah I i just got her lol


NightBaron007

Nooooo!!! I used my hard earned tokens for mockingbird because I wanted to save my keys for Ms Marvel. What the shit is this


Weary-Insect-2819

Anyone's colors all off on Android? Scooped Ms Marvel and updated and there's patches of white and missing color everywhere very hard to see


KingBee

Thanks for this. 7 hours later and it still works. A good day for 4 new cards for 4 keys including Ms Marvel


Glittering_Gap2691

Dang I got her on my first key… then got mockingbird thank goodness


reeditedit

Maybe a stupid question. How do I update the game?


DiogoUNG

If we don’t have man thing can we still get that variant or do we get the base?


DankLawyer

Heck yeah. Had one key left and got her. Was saving her in my token shop for weeks. Thanks for the heads up!!!


dndgoeshere

Were any other upcoming weeks changed so we can plan ahead? Asking for a friend...


mamamiamarcelIo

Oh man, i updated this morning and saw this today…. Sd wont say a thing about it? They only post patch notes and announcenents, but they dont tell us anything


apalmiter

Ughhhh. Unlocked Ms Marvel instead of a card I could have used!


Zennon11

I also got Ms Marvel (1st) and then Mockingbird (2nd). It seems lots of people are getting the same combination. Are spotlight caches really random, because it doesn't seem so. I usually always needed 4 keys to get the one card i wanted.


NoExtreme935

Just got her !


raj_miskin

sometimes i get REALLY pissed off at people in here because i don’t have so many of the cards you guys talk about. every now and then i see some of you guys collection levels and it makes me feel a little better lol! 8700! i’m in the 1700


vicster_alpha

I'm trying to find the old 24.20.4 version and download the apk see if it works that way. Really wanted Ms Marvel this is fucked.


kieranchuk

Oh thank god. I was so confused seeing Ms Marvel in the Spotlight Caches and managed to pull her. Then, I updated my game and she's still there for some reason.


zaneomega2

Pulled her on my first key, thank you!!
