    Oh good. So if we at one point assigned a support which cannot ever be removed, it now slows us down. *slow clap*

    The support banner won’t slow anything down, it’s all one banner with more information on it. It’s a good change, IMO.

    I'm going with Nebula. I'm reminded of the scene in IW when I see snappy dresser.

    Really hoping its Kitty Pride.  She's gone through more costume changes since her introduction than anyone else I can think of.  And we are way overdue for her.

    Snappy Dresser, as in a dresser that you snap together. In other words, IKEA furniture. IKEA is a Swedish company. The most well-known Swedish Marvel character is Erik Selvig from the MCU. Since he had been mind-controlled by Loki, who was just released, Erik Selvig is the most obvious choice for a new character.

    Or take the initials, SD, and decide they mean Surprise! (not) Dazzler!

    Someone who clicks their fingers to put on their suit/armour so I don’t know why but i.m came to mind first so maybe another variant? Infinity war armour maybe?

    other than that if it’s a new character maybe chameleon or morph as they change costume a lot when they change into other characters

    Just to note, it's not fixed as in "her spear no longer covers any tiles at all", but fixed as in "her spear no longer fully obscures the tiles, so they are identify-able and icons on them are legible"
    Can't come soon enough.  I just had a match where I missed a match-5 in the bottom left corner first move, obscured by the cursed -3 Spear of Obscuration.  My opponent didn't miss it.

    "As a workaround, just turn your monitor around and look at the pic from the back, where the tiles are obscuring the spear" XD
    only possible with a good connection, depends on the quality of your wlan cable

    • Nightcrawler's power BAMF will now display what color is most present on the board.
    Glad to see this particular improvement, thank you!

    You snap your fingers when listening to music, and, seriously, who's a better dresser than Dazzler?  Wearing a disco ball as a necklace is the height of fashion!

    Snappy = fast. 5* Quicksilver. Maybe 4* Speed.  Who gets dressed faster in Marvel?

    We know it won't be Snapper Carr. :-)

    why can't you remove supports?

    Nightcrawler and Okoye updates = great stuff!

    As for snappy dresser... how about Azazel? Would make for an interesting villainous addition.

    You can't directly, but you can just shift it over to Sentry or someone like that and it won't matter.
