Marvel Snap has a new Featured Location called Sacred Timeline. This Featured Location has a 40% chance of appearing during the event's 48-hour window, meaning you should be familiar with how it works if you plan on playing. It rewards the first player to fill the location with a copy of their starting hand, which could be enough to emerge victorious.

　　While it's tempting to simply place a bunch of 1-cost cards down in Sacred Timeline, we don't recommend doing that--at least, not without a plan. Doing so will certainly trigger Sacred Timeline's effects, but you'll likely lose the location. And as always, you'll want to come with a viable deck that works, regardless of if Sacred Timeline appears.

　　Use at least some of the following cards to win the Sacred Timeline location:

　　Squirrel Girl (1 Cost, 1 Power)Quinjet (1 Cost, 2 Power)Mister Sinister (2 Cost, 2 Power)Brood (3 Cost, 2 Power)Lockjaw (3 Cost, 2 Power)Mystique (3 Cost, 0 Power)Cosmo (3 Cost, 3 Power)Patriot (3 Cost, 1 Power)Kazar (4 Cost, 4 Power)Blue Marvel (5 Cost, 3 Power)Devil Dinosaur (5 Cost, 3 Power)Spectrum (6 Cost, 5 Power)Thanos (6 Cost, 8 Power)The main idea with Sacred Timeline is to fill the location with cards that can continue to have their power boosted afterward. One of the best strategies is to utilize the good old Patriot (Ongoing: Your cards with no abilities have +2 Power) deck, which is an effective method, even outside of the context of this Featured Location. Play cards like Squirrel Girl, Mister Sinister, Brood, Wasp, and others with no abilities into Sacred Timeline to maximize this strategy. Then play Patriot to boost their power.

　　While the above strategy is useful, it does rely on you pulling one specific card, which is a downside. Instead, there are other, more consistent strategies such as utilizing Lockjaw (When you play a card here, swap it with a card in your deck) alongside other powerful choices. Play low-power cards that will hopefully swap for more effective options thanks to Lockjaw's effect. Likewise, we highly suggest having Devil Dinosaur (Ongoing: +2 Power for each card in your hand) in your deck, as its power will be maximized after you fill Sacred Timeline.

　　Another thing we recommend is to play lots of Ongoing cards that boost your Power across the board -- similar to Patriot, but for a wider range of cards. For this, we advise sticking with Ka-Zar (Ongoing: Your 1-Cost cards have +1 Power), Blue Marvel (Ongoing: Your other cards have +1 Power), and Mystique (On Reveal: If the last card you played has an Ongoing ability, this card gains it) to boost the power of your cards at Sacred Timeline.

　　You can also utilize Quinjet (Ongoing: Cards that didn’t start in your deck cost 1 less) alongside Thanos (At the start of the game, shuffle the six Infinity Stones into your deck) to reduce the cost of each Infinity Stone to 0. You can then play them into Sacred Timeline to easily win the location, while reaping the benefits of the Infinity Stones. Remember, if you play all six of them, Thanos gets +10 Power.
