- New Sanctum Showdown mode brings a new way to compete with fresh snapping mechanics
- First to 16 points wins
- The new mode is available until March 11th
Can you rise to the rank of the Sorcerer Supreme? A new limited-time mode called Sanctum Showdown has just gone live in Marvel Snap and it’s here for the next two weeks. This event brings a fresh way to compete, introducing a different win condition, a special Sanctum location, and brand-new mechanics for snapping.
In Marvel Snap’s Sanctum Showdown mode, instead of playing until turn six, victory goes to whoever reaches 16 points first. The Sanctum location plays a central role, awarding the most points each turn. Snapping also works differently here. Starting on turn three, you can snap once per turn to increase the Sanctum’s value by one point, ensuring that the momentum is always shifting.
Entering a match costs one Scroll, but winning earns you another, keeping the action going. You start with 12 Scrolls and get two more every eight hours. If you run out, you can purchase more for 40 Gold. No matter the outcome, every match adds to your Sorcerer Rank and earns Charms, which can be used in the Sanctum Shop for cosmetics or new cards.
Have you already thought of a plan and decided to use Captain Marvel or Dracula to turn the tide in your favour? Well, that’s not going to work because some cards and locations are banned in this mode to keep the matches fair. Abilities that interact with final outcomes won’t work here. Other cards, including Debrii, have also been removed to prevent one-sided strategies.

If cards like Laufey, Gorgon, and Uncle Ben are on your radar, Sanctum Showdown is your only way to get them before they hit the Token Shop on March 13th. Portal Pulls give you a chance to unlock them for free, along with up to four Series 4 or 5 cards.
Sanctum Showdown will be available in Marvel Snap until March 11th. Visit the official website for more information.
