Knowing when to Snap can be difficult, so we asked a group of Marvel Snap full-time streaming “pros” to give tips on the best time to Snap at dinner with your family or partner.
“One of the reasons Snapping is so great is because there isn’t one right or wrong answer as to when to Snap. There’s a lot to consider. Are your kids making fart sounds and ignoring every one of your requests to quiet down and eat the meal you spent the last hour making? Most “parenting experts” would say maintaining a calm, yet firm demeanor is correct here, but sometimes Snapping is the only thing those little shits respond to.”
Though you are gambling with a Snap, the pros want you to know it’s more than just a wager.
“People forget Snapping is a psychological tool as well. Once you start to realize it’s great for bluffing, you’ll start understanding how to use this tool, rather than treating as nothing more than a gamble. For example, if you Snap at just the right time you can get them to leave, which means a bunch of extra time to yourself to play Starfield without worrying if they’re perceiving your hobby as you ignoring them.”
It’s also wise to try and use your best judgement to predict the outcome, a Snap judgment if you will.
“Don’t be afraid to Snap early either. If you’re in a position to make a solid evaluation early on you can nip the whole thing in the bud, walking away as the winner without putting in the time and effort to play things out. Sometimes she’s just in a shit mood and nothing you do is going to change that, so Snapping as soon as dinner starts saves both of you from wasting time so you can move on with your respective evenings.”
The Marvel Snap pros went on to expand upon getting rid of your stock partner for a premium variant and we plan on providing their thought in another article at a later date.
