We do want to just say thank you guys for being with us, sticking with us, staying with us, and we're excited for the future, and what we have to deliver. There's some special stuff coming, and you know, on that, here is some of, some the best moments from the Snapchat and we hope you guys enjoy. Welcome back snappers to the first ever snap chat. I'm just pumped to have you on the channel and finally do a collaboration together What's up, man? Oh,
Alexander Coccia:you're talking about being excited. Do you have any idea how excited I am? Ladies
Cozy Snap:and gentlemen
Alexander Coccia:Let me
Cozy Snap:introduce you to the first ever snap draft. So Alex, are you ready for a draft?
Alexander Coccia:I'm ready I'm ready to ruin your draft. I mean, I'm ready to make your deck.
Cozy Snap:We're teamwork, man We're gonna hope we get the win. I'm gonna go with the collector. I think it's risky, dude But what, what would you say? What would you say?
Alexander Coccia:I, these are horrible, horrible options. I'm glad you're picking it, not me. That's what I'm going to do.
Cozy Snap:And you're probably going to get fun options. Look at that.
Alexander Coccia:Oh my God. I got, these are so easy. You're, you're begging to donate cubes. If you pick three
Cozy Snap:Oh man, the king pen, the king pen would have been huge with arrow. We'll see you guys on the battlefield. All right, so we're here. We're on the battlefield now with the draft special. All right, where do you want to play Sunspot? Oh,
Alexander Coccia:I'm not, I can't handle that kind of pressure.
Cozy Snap:So Alex, do we, do we try to go for the collector synergy?
Alexander Coccia:I would lean protect Sunspot.
Cozy Snap:Mojo World is the
Alexander Coccia:third location. It's Maximus! And Achillean wrecks his hand anyways. Oh my gosh, Cozy, you are on another level. You called. The Maximus synergy. Let's go. Look at this. This is god tier. Let's go. I want to snap.
Cozy Snap:Let's do it. Risk the cute for the content. So he's playing Mojo World. That's fine. And he's going Storm. So this actually works out better. This is absolutely perfect. So do you want to go Captain here? Oh, we got the retreat. You broke him. We broke him because of Maximus. Hey, hell of a first time draft of that deck, dude. Unbelievable. And armor's just like, man, there's not a faster retreat in all the land. And when you throw this out before they can destroy their combo they're looking for. So armor's one that I would say is probably my most used second to Shang Chi.
Alexander Coccia:Yeah, this card's unbelievable. It is so good. You get it in pool one. When you Bring it on and pull two. It protects your sunspot. It blows up Destroy Dex. Like Destroy Dex, absolutely hate it. I'm actually kind of sad you took it down because that variant was so beautiful. I absolutely love it. You got, you always have the best variants.
Cozy Snap:What's going on, Alex? How are you doing?
Alexander Coccia:Oh, I'm doing amazing. Anytime I get to sit down with you and talk Marvel Snap is an amazing time in my books. Lastly,
Cozy Snap:I will say the audio version. We hear you. We'll be coming by the next episode, guys. Excited to launch that for those that want to listen to our banter and not look on the videos.
Alexander Coccia:Alright, so there's a card that is synonymous with the X Men. And as I say that, you probably know exactly who I'm gonna talk about. It's Cyclops. Can you tell me why Cyclops has been done so dirty? You can't even find him. You don't even remember what he looks like because you haven't played him in a deck. Like, he's so terrible, Cozy. Like, you, you, you're struggling because know what Cyclops looks like. Yeah.
Cozy Snap:I'm struggling. So to close on this subject, Alex, let's go and talk best unlocks. We both made lists, okay? We made, we made lists on what we think are the best unlocks for pool 3 players. We just
Alexander Coccia:have a quick conversation about what it's like as a content creator making a tier list. Oh my, like, like we know we're gonna get absolutely ruthlessly assaulted in the comments, but as soon as you make a tier list, like everyone is gonna hate you. This tier list. Oh, dude. Okay. Between, between
Cozy Snap:tier lists, mis mispronouncing a name in the Marvel Universe and and like a slight misplay, it's over. Like, your comments are just ruthless and I, I love it. Buddy,
Alexander Coccia:I mispronounced the name already in this podcast. Like, literally, I did that this podcast. You can rewind and hear me mispronounce the name. I bought Super Scroll.
Cozy Snap:Have you used them since? Who's you know, the token shop's been around now. Biggest regret, favorite card that you've gotten. Both sides.
Alexander Coccia:I've regretted all my purchases. Cozy, I'm sorry. I gotta be honest. I'm not gonna sit here and lie. And she I bought, I bought Papa Thanos, and okay, we gotta bring this up again. Are we gonna do this again? Because the other week you told me Papa Thanos was gonna carry, carry us to infinite. Papa Thanos is carrying me into sadness. He's
Cozy Snap:taking me there! I think
Alexander Coccia:this card still sucks, man.
Cozy Snap:It's because he knows you're talking crap about him. It's because he knows. He's like, I'm not giving this guy any of my damn stones. Alex, Alex, Alex, none of them.
Alexander Coccia:No kidding. I don't never get a stone. I got, I just want stones, man. Aw, oh my god. Alright,
Cozy Snap:alright. Just give me a stone. Alex let's get your once a podcast description to the audio listeners of what you're looking at.
Alexander Coccia:It looks like a red haired beautiful woman who's wearing an iron man suit, gently grasping You You
Cozy Snap:know, I was getting lost, but the gently grasping pulled me right back in. That was, that was, that was beautiful. That was beautiful, guys. I know you guys liked that in the comments and audio listeners. You're welcome. Now, moments before filming, Alex told me he's not feeling great. He's a little under the weather, but he still showed up for our weekly
Alexander Coccia:podcast. What's up, man? Hey, I'm not going to miss this. Honestly. Yes. My voice is giving out suddenly. And, but you know what, this is like my favorite time of the week.
Cozy Snap:You know, you're not going to get that crisp, smooth Alex voice that you guys have grown accustomed to, but this will do as well. Alex, we are at the number 4 spot on the top podcast, as far as Apple podcasts go at least, for the charting gaming podcast. Even, I know, I know. Hey, audio listeners, I've got Mbaku on the screen. I want to take a moment. To apologize to him, his tribe, everything about M'Baku I'm sorry. And I'm also sorry for the one commenter that took me going out into the street and yelling in traffic as an actual fact. I thought that was fantastic. That did not happen. But it did happen in my mind. M'Baku works, man! When you've got a card like M'Baku, that can come on the board and be like a one sided Alex, that's, that's awesome, dude! It's awesome!
Alexander Coccia:The fact that you're calling Umbaku awesome right now would make me question the flavor of water you're drinking over there, my friend. Like, I don't, I don't know, man. I don't know, it's such a stretch! I love Cerebro, but to tell me that Umbaku is a good card now? We just finished talking about how terrible this card is, Cozy!
Cozy Snap:Listen, first of all, I am drinking Umbaku juice and I am absolutely wasted. It is The truth. Happy 2023 in January. We've got brand new cards coming every single week. Card balances were leaked and we got some confirmation from Ben Brode that they're actually true. And hopefully, maybe, Second Dinner leaked these out to see the initial reactions of everybody. And people were like,
Alexander Coccia:Oh, now we're in like the metagame of the leaking. So, what you're saying is, Second Dinner leaked the patch notes to a North Korean website in advance, just to get our impressions.
Cozy Snap:This is National Treasure 3's next subject. Alex, did you get the bundle?
Alexander Coccia:I did. I bought both bundles. Yes, sir.
Cozy Snap:I saw a Reddit comment that said, Who's gonna buy this bundle? And I saw Cozy probably bought it. And I, I smiled, because I didn't get it yet. Yet. Keep that in mind. But I haven't been, here's my biggest issues. And just to sum all of my thoughts up with the bundles, right? Number one, poor timing. Terrible timing. Number two, introduce ways that people can support the game that isn't 100, that's not 50, throw some 15, 10, 7, 8, 9, throw those in there, just mixed in. If those were mixed in, this would not feel like such a what the hell, tone deaf, kind of like, what's going on kind of bundle. What my biggest problem with it is, just like, give us an X, man. Don't have this on I don't want this on my screen every there's not even a timer! Not even a timer! So I have to see this every single time, like, let me X out of it and get out of it. You know, I give them kudos for not having pop ups and stuff. But, but they, they've got to allow us a way to X out of this. And lastly, I will say probably the most disappointing thing that I want to speak up more about, and hopefully, Second Dinner, you listen to this, is localization. From what it looks like right now, it, I, it feels like they're just putting the, the, the, it through a converter. Countries, the wage differences, all of those things is so different than the U. S. that that has to be looked at. But the localization, the timing, and then mixing in things that we can support the game, that's what I want to see. Which today is joined to me by Mr. Molt. Now Molt, you are not Alex. Everybody, Alex big congratulations in the comment section. Alex is a I can't say he's a dad, he's already a dad but he's a new dad of a new baby, and we have been awesome enough to have Molt here on the Snapchat. Molt, thank you for joining us today, bud.
MOLT:Of course, man. I've been wanting to, so I'm happy that happy we got the opportunity to sit down and chat for a little bit.
Cozy Snap:Absolutely. And now people can absolutely see that we're both at the same place. At the same time, we're not the same person. Nope, we're not the same person. I like the multiverse idea, though. I like the idea that we're in the same, just different timelines, you know? Hilarious. And guess who is back? Alex, what's up, man? Good to have you back. Happy new dad ship.
Alexander Coccia:Yeah, it was absolutely wonderful. And I want to say thank you to everyone for all the kind comments. It actually was incredibly heartwarming. And, Also, huge shoutout to Molt for filling in. I mean, Molt literally filled in on like, last moment's notice.
Cozy Snap:Alex, my gosh, the biggest update to ever hit Marvel Snap. Battle Mode Pool Series drops the works, man. What do you think? How are you doing?
Alexander Coccia:I'm doing great, and you're right. This has been an absolutely momentous week in Marvel Snap. Battle Mode coming out has opened up an entire new landscape for Marvel Snap. Competitive. Is in full swing. We have just straight up friendly battles. You could actually just play your friends. Right. And it's couldn't be more exciting time to be a Marvel snap player. I think arrow continues to be one of the absolute best cards in the game. Your face lit up as soon as I said the word it's on your list too. Come on. Of course, it's on your list. Guys,
Cozy Snap:are you even surprised? Are you surprised that I made a top 10 list and I didn't have my wife at number one arrow is by far the best card in Marvel snap, and I don't even think it comes close. I think she hook is great, dude. But the fact that she's 5'7 and she has the most unique ability in the game, and she's what you said, plug and playable. Now, she's not a one cost at times, but I, I find myself winning more cubes, more games, and putting her in just most of my decks. There's no con of putting Arrow in your deck. What about Thor, dude? I think Thor is, is, is also just so good. Like, man, the guy's always got value. Oh, what has he got? Ladies and gentlemen, audio listeners, he's got Thor's hammer himself. Alex, are you worthy? You're, you're picking that up pretty easily.
Alexander Coccia:I mean, it's pretty light. I gotta be honest with you. I don't think it was made all that all that Not made in Asgard? No, it's not made in Asgard. So I was able to pick it up with relative ease.
Cozy Snap:As Hella would say, a cheap replica, right? But Yeah, that's
Alexander Coccia:exactly what
Cozy Snap:I am. You know, Alex You've spent many Snapchat episodes dogging and just talking down to the lord and savior of Marvel Snap. And now, not only is he getting buffed massively, he gets to just bring it all together here on the Snapchat. Dude, can you
Alexander Coccia:believe? It actually crossed my mind, I'm like, Cozy is gonna be so happy that Thanos got buffed. It also crossed my mind that like, Thanos just won a tournament and is now emerging in the meta legit, and now it just got buffed again. What is happening here? And like, it blows my mind. Like, obviously they locked in these changes like a week or two ago. They could not have predicted that like, it would win a tournament and all of a sudden get like, really popular in the meta. And then like, by the way, we're buffing it. I'm doing great, Cozy, honestly, and I say it almost every single week, but like, it's such a great time to be a Marvel Snap player. There actually is a 100 percent win rate strategy right now with Kang. What you do is you Iron Fist him in a Cosmo, and then you just Zole it until you're, Your opponent retreats. 100 percent win rate strategy. You heard it here first.
Cozy Snap:Yeah, well, it's the infinite loop glitch, but I'll say this, I think it's a bit clickbait. It's hard to pull off. It's not, I think I watched my buddy Reid just try it for like an hour plus to try to get it to work, and it's like, you know, It shouldn't exist. We should not have infinite combos. It feels like a storm is brewing, right? It's been kind of a slow couple of months. I mean, we had the friendly battles come by, we've had some obviously balanced adjustments, but I feel like we're about to get smacked with a lot of different content, Alex, and man, we're getting towards that 20 mark. I think it's our next episode. It's gonna be episode 20, man. That's awesome. Yeah,
Alexander Coccia:it's crazy. It's unbelievable. Can't wait to hit that 20 mark, and the next 20, then before you know it, it'll be 100. Completely insane. I can't believe it's been 20 weeks, honestly. 20 weeks of, by far, my favorite thing that I do in Marvel Snap. And I can't wait for the next 20, Cozy. I gotta be honest with you.
Cozy Snap:Yeah, dude. I mean, it's three months away and I've been playing for almost a full year. That's around when I got accepted into the the beta of Marvel Snap. Arrow, who is still just a such a good surprise card of getting good cubes, and do you still use Arrow? She's a card to me that you know I've loved
Alexander Coccia:forever. Yeah, it's one of those things that I'm ashamed to admit. I should have picked up on Arrow earlier, like you were telling me about how much you loved Arrow, like legitimately, like you had a romantic obsession with Arrow. I understood it. Yeah, I understood it, but like I for some reason was like,
Cozy Snap:ah, it's a good card. But Alex, we do have a special guest today, and I want to introduce him. We're gonna bring him in right now. K. M. Best, a top player since the beta
KM Best:days. K.
Cozy Snap:M., it's good to have you here,
KM Best:bud. It's great to be here. I did not know I was the first guest that has ever been on this podcast. That is, I learned that right now. I had no idea.
Cozy Snap:You are the first. We had Moult when Alex was sick, but you are the first with us two, man, and it's long awaited. We've been wanting to have a guest here, and I couldn't think of a more perfect person to have. Kind of more of an annoying thing than anything else. And Alex, that's gonna be Bugs in Marvel Snap. I have come from other games. I have come from games that their bugs got out of hand so badly. And it was, it was a joke at some point. It became a joke across it, and mobile games kind of suffer with this a lot in general. And I thought Marvel Snap did a pretty good job, but the bugs are starting to stack up, don't you feel?
Alexander Coccia:Yeah, most definitely. And I'll tell you right now, Kiddie Pride has a plethora of bugs, like, like, I had games crashing non stop.
Cozy Snap:I think they had, like, a bug thing happen a couple times ago, and they're like, Everybody, we're giving 50 credits away, check your inbox, you know? And it's like, 50 credits, oh boy, Grandpa, I can buy a Quicksilver upgrade with that, you know? I just feel like they need to up that just a little bit, in my opinion, too, huh? Kiddie went down. We have a Kiddie down, man. Kiddie Pride is down. Got pulled from, sadly, the game.
Alexander Coccia:How the hell is Uatu a maybe? That's what I wanna know. That's my opening comment.
Cozy Snap:Believe it or not, very few Uatu comments. In a thousand comments, very few said Uatu. I think we've just all accepted that we hate him. Like, he's just dumpster. I don't hate
Alexander Coccia:him. Speak for yourself, I love Uatu.
Cozy Snap:Alex, you haven't talked about him since week, like, four in the Snapchat, let's be honest.
Alexander Coccia:That's because every time I talk about him, I take emotional damage with your negativity.
Cozy Snap:Yeah, well I don't know what to say. He begs it. He calls it to himself, man. Look at that. Look at that cue ball over there. Hit me with your one cast. I'll let you I'll let
Alexander Coccia:you start. Okay, so this is going to be a little controversial. We're getting started. Off with a banger here. My favorite card this season, coming in at cost one, is Kitty Pride. Heh, we only got to play for a day. I'm telling you guys, Kitty Pride was so good. I don't want to just keep bringing this up. I actually released a video, like, two days ago. It was called, like, Remembering Kitty Pride, where I released all my day one footage, because I'm like, guys, this deck, this card is so good. Like, it's so fun to play. Let's not forget that this card is literally absent from the game right now.
Cozy Snap:The first thing we have to announce, this will be our last Snapchat. On a Thursday. We are going to be having SnapChat moving forward on Drumroll Mondays guys. We decided Mondays for multiple reasons But mainly outside of this week all of the card balance changes will happen on a Thursday And that gives us time to
Alexander Coccia:play test and figure it all out Yeah, I'm seeing a lot of Darkhawk out there right now. Some YouTuber I follow releases like Rocks and Hawks deck, and then now I feel like it's all over the place. You know, I'd love to talk to that guy about, you know, how he designs his decks to make them absolutely so soul crushing, but I gotta tell you, it's a damn good deck that wins games! I want quite a few playing that Rocks and Hawks deck, my friend. It was a solid one.
Cozy Snap:I kind of hate birds. All together, I kind of think they just suck.
Alexander Coccia:I can see that, like we have Blue Jays where I'm from, so Blue Jays will actually fight other birds. I watched a Blue Jay headbutt a squirrel off of a bird feeder. So, you wouldn't know this, but Canadian geese, like they're like huge, huge bird things. They look like mini ostriches, right? Yeah, yeah. They are absolutely evil. They will run at you and attack you ruthlessly for no reason whatsoever. And they like, they end up everywhere too. Like, I would, I used to work at a place where like they would all congregate like on a farm. This was a field where like the entrance of a building was, and if you were walking to the building they would just start running at you And like we'd have like old ladies be like, oh my god like swinging the purse around trying to fight these geese It's the best pay per
Cozy Snap:view of all time. I mean like I would watch that on TV I mean that's that's but that's why I hate them. They're just they don't Dude,
Alexander Coccia:we'd stand at the window and just watch. We would watch old ladies fight Canadian geese non stop. And old ladies don't run fast, the geese catch up. Oh my God.
Cozy Snap:I wish I could consecrate for that so badly. Just like bird fights and birds fighting people. Dude, it'd be off the There's got to be a channel for this already. There's got to be a Canadian channel. It sounds
Alexander Coccia:illegal, honestly. Like if we, if we started like a bird fight club, I don't know if that would do so well. I don't know if it could be monetized.
Cozy Snap:When do, when would we step in, right? Like if the birds are really kicking the lady's ass, do you, when, when do you, when do you go in there and help her out or do you just watch it for the content?
Alexander Coccia:I think eventually you do have to step in like a referee in a UFC fight. You got to get in there. Gotta like, you know, make sure she can, you know, she's all right. First rule about Bird Fight Club is that we shouldn't be talking about Bird Fight Club. So I think we need to.
Cozy Snap:Yeah, we made a big mistake here for sure. And and, and, and guys, if you see another channel come up, that's called B BFC, then you know, subscribe, like all that good stuff. I'm going to be going to New York next week, but I actually think the hot dogs. Are tremendous the street dogs. I just the dogs on the side of the street the vendor dogs in new york, man I think they're tremendous street
Alexander Coccia:meat. No, you're wrong. I'm, sorry. Try it. I don't like okay I don't
Cozy Snap:like that term
Alexander Coccia:at the you don't like the street meeter street meet I don't want to ask questions about that. Let's look we got to keep this monetized. So let's not go there cozy is a hot dog A sandwich, why would anyone ask that?
Cozy Snap:Well, it's obviously a sandwich No, don't. Alex, I can't find another co host for this show. You think it's a sandwich. Oh yeah, it's meat between two buns. I get it, the definition of a sandwich is two breads with meat in between, but Alex, do we call it taco? Are we going crazy? We're going to call it tacos as well? Tacos are sandwiches. Oh my god, I've lost you. No, you've lost yourself, sir. You believe in your full heart that a hot dog is a sandwich.
Alexander Coccia:No, I wouldn't say my whole heart, but like, if your major problem with it is that like, it's one piece of bread that you have a meat in the middle, you can just separate the two. The piece of bread, so it's two pieces of bread and just stack them together. It becomes a sandwich again.
Cozy Snap:A hot dog is a culinary masterpiece, good sir. To confine it to being a sandwich is so, is, is, honestly, it's disrespectful.
Alexander Coccia:Is a hamburger a sandwich? No. No, it's not. See, now you're cracked because a hamburger is a hamburger because a sandwich has like lunch meats in it.
Cozy Snap:But it has its own identity. You don't need to call it. You'd if, if I went, if we were going to go on a hot steamy date and I was like, Hey, let's go on a picnic. I'll bring some sandwiches. And you're like, Oh, love sandwiches. Love them. We go to the date and I whip out a couple hot dogs. Not, not, not whip out a hot dog, but a couple of hot dogs that I've made that are sandwiches, stay
Alexander Coccia:monetized. You're cozy. Settle down.
Cozy Snap:What would, would you reaction? Would you be like, Oh, I'm so glad you brought some sandwiches. Or would you be a sane, normal person who said, Hi, those are, those
Alexander Coccia:are hot dogs. I would say, sir, do you have any mayo for this sandwich?
Cozy Snap:You put mayos on hot dog and we need to move forward before I get lose myself here, okay. Finally, the return of Kitty. Pride is happening and goodness it is a different Kitty than we've had before. And we have to kind of see how she's gonna work out in its entirety. But man, I'm excited. I think it's so cool that It's very rare that the entire snap community gets to, like, have access to something at the same time. Almost never. So finally, Alex, we are going to be ending the snapchat with a first time subject and that is going to be a snapchat mailbag.
Alexander Coccia:I always joke about how it's a great time to be a Marvel Snap player, and I think this last week was a wild time to be a Marvel Snap player. I'm in Orlando, and I'm getting, like, these updates about, like, how, like, Wave got completely destroyed, all these changes, card acquisition changes, massive patch, and I'm just like, trying to just bathe myself in sunscreen, avoiding the biting sun of Florida, just being like, what is happening in Marvel Snap Land? And it was just complete chaos, but I'm all for it, because anytime the game is changing, I think it's a good thing, and It changed a lot. Cozy.
Cozy Snap:I can tell you, were at Disney. You got like the red face, you have the exhaustion in your voice, the, the look of death in your eyes a little bit like, you know, Disney is the happiest place on earth, but it also sucks the living soul out of you. I, I gotta say, Alex, one of the worst things as a content creator is to get sick and I have been hit. By the sick plague this week. If you guys haven't seen a lot of my videos, that's because I have been bed ridden. This is actually the first time I've popped out of bed. So you might have to excuse me if Mr. Alex will kind of carry the torch on this one a bit
Alexander Coccia:more. You sound great. You look great. Look at you. You look like an absolute chat.
Cozy Snap:The hair's
Alexander Coccia:hiding though. You're hiding your hair behind the behind the hat though. I think that's a little unfortunate, but other than that, buddy, you, you look like an absolute chat.
Cozy Snap:I've not gotten out of bed in three days. So this is a, it feels good to kind of bounce back here. The move master himself. We're going to break down. Everything you could possibly want to know about M. O. V. E. Let's welcome in M. O. L. T.
MOLT:What's going on, man? Not much, man. Really, really excited for this season. I'm excited for people to finally give M. O. V. E. a chance, you know? I feel like it's been slept on, and I'm excited for people to see what's possible. I got to meet the literal GOAT.
Alexander Coccia:Look at this absolute boss in the middle of the screen here. I, literally a GOAT. I couldn't believe it. The friendliest GOAT I've ever talked to. This GOAT was one of the nicest GOATs I've ever had an opportunity to meet. To cuddle with, converse with, and quite frankly smelled horrible, but was a great presence overall, Cozy. I gotta tell ya, with everything that's going on right now in Marvel Snap, between the massive changes coming to the Spotlight cash system, It's an absolutely incredible time to be a Marvel Snap player.
Cozy Snap:Dude, where why why were you with goats in July? I don't know if the month matters, but yeah, yeah. Are you a petting zoo?
Alexander Coccia:Yeah, we took the kids to this really cool petting zoo. And the petting zoo, basically, the goats walk around, they eat your clothes, and they poo everywhere. And then every once in a while, one of the goats will be like, just kind of walk up to you, and it's like, looks friendly, you pet it a little bit.
Cozy Snap:I you'll be surprised to hear this, Alex. I have not been to a petting zoo in like in like 30 years. What, what, what do they have outside of goats?
Alexander Coccia:So they had goats they had chickens. The chickens were a hit with the kids, cause the kids could chase the chickens, and the chickens would like, run away and stuff, and they make funny sounds. And then outside of that, there's horses. My, my daughter got kicked by this, like, mini horse? What are they called? They're, I don't know, they're called something, not a pony. It's like, it's like a miniature horse. It's even smaller than a pony. If you could pit, pet any dangerous animal, what would you pet?
Cozy Snap:If I could pet any, or if I could have one, cause like, I really want an orca. Not just cause the card, I want an orca in my pet. In my living room, kind of want a panda. Pandas are pretty cool, but it comes down like when it comes down like the best animals ever by far, it's penguins, man. Emperor penguins, by far.
Alexander Coccia:No question. Penguins, the best animal ever. Yeah, seriously. No question. What do you think it is? What do I think the best animal ever is? Yeah. I mean, I would, I would like to pet a hyena because I think that like petting hyenas, like the ultimate, like kind of like, yo, check this out. That's the best animal is the most pet animal.
Cozy Snap:I haven't broken them down by like pet status. So.
Alexander Coccia:No, like, this is the most, like, most dangerous animal to pet, I think, would be, like, a hyena, because I feel like it would just attack your arm right away.
Cozy Snap:Give me, like, an S tier animal and an F tier animal. So, like, for me, S tier animal, Emperor Penguin, F tier animal, like, a giraffe. They kind of suck.
Alexander Coccia:You know what? I've always been pretty low on elephants. They don't impress me all that much. Like, I get they're huge, but, like, I would, I wouldn't say it's an F, but I would give it, like, a C. Like, people are like, oh, it's an elephant. I'm like, it's an elephant. Like, okay, it's a huge ass. Thingy that walks really slow with a massive trunk like I get that. What's an S tier? What's the S tier? Oh, man, that's hard to say. I mean, I kind of like squirrels.
Cozy Snap:You're giving an elephant a C and a squirrel an S. Squirrels are super cute, man. Where's like, I'm gonna say an animal, you just off the top of your head give me a letter grade, okay? Gorilla.
Alexander Coccia:Oh, that's a, that's a B for sure.
Cozy Snap:I'll be a silverback. Oh.
Alexander Coccia:Oh, silverback, those are, okay, silverbacks are bad. Oh, sorry, I wasn't, I
Cozy Snap:didn't, you needed an adjective for the gorilla. That looks too innate.
Alexander Coccia:That's like, okay, he can punch through a tree. Yes. A. Rhino. Rhinos? C.
Cozy Snap:Oh my god, it's something about the gray animals with you. I'd give rhinos like a solid like B Lions.
Alexander Coccia:Okay, lions. Every time I see a lion, they're so lazy. They're just laying in the sun. They're always sleeping. Is that what? Yeah. A D?
Cozy Snap:So squirrels are S's. I'm like, I'm, I can't wait to know your top of the list here. Tigers? Tigers are basically lions, so D. Are you just being, are you just hot man? Are you just hot taken here? You really hate all these animals. The zoom must suck.
Alexander Coccia:You really hate all these animals, is what you just asked me. I mean, you have like, I don't think I hate animals.
Cozy Snap:D you talked about a goat for 15 minutes and then you gave a tiger a deed.
Alexander Coccia:Well, I mean, it's a tiger. I mean, obviously they, like, they're very pretty animals, but I don't, I don't see them as being that friendly hippo. Oh, hippos are a, because like I've, I've watched a hippo look. I hippos might be s I'll tell you why I saw a video of a hippo. Literally run into a river for the sole reason to simply attack a Pride of Lions solo. There was like five lions in the water trying to like cross the river and this hippo was like, Nope! Get the hell out of my water! It just charged at the king of the jungle. Crazy. Hippos apparently are insanely aggressive. I'm all for it. S tier.
Cozy Snap:What about penguins? Where do you put penguins?
Alexander Coccia:Penguins are pretty cool. I like how they they cuddle and they waddle and stuff. I'd give them a good A.
Cozy Snap:A good A? Okay, I was about to end the podcast like right here. Okay, fair enough. There you go. There's Alex's zoo tier list and, and most of mine, pretty much all those animals are up there. I think hippos kind of suck, actually, controversially. What? That's the
Alexander Coccia:hottest thing. How, why do hippos suck? Just fat grey cows. That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard in my life.
Cozy Snap:Special episode of the snapchat 52 episodes 52 weeks one full year of the snapchat and for one year running straight I am joined by Mr. Alex Coccia man. We made it. We did it 52 weeks in a row And this is our year iversary the beginning of season 2 of the snapchat man. Can you believe
Alexander Coccia:it? I can't believe it honestly and what I really can't believe is how much every single week I look forward to this This is the piece of content that I look forward to the most, not just because I get to talk to one of my absolute best friends about a game that I absolutely love, but because of like, the amount of community support we get. I don't know about you Cozy, but I cannot express how thankful I am to everybody for a year of support. This has been remarkable, I can't think of any other word.
Cozy Snap:I mean, it's crazy to look back and think when we started it, I remember it was like very different content, like, you know, it was just deck guides on deck guides. And it was so cool to do something different. And when we first started, like, the views weren't there. You know, it was really kind of risky per se, right? But like, we didn't care because it was just fun to film together. Like, that's kind of what was the base of this. And we kept saying we're gonna just keep doing it, and if people choose to watch, awesome. And it's just a great way to talk about more than just like a deck or whatever. We can just talk like each other, you know, Zoo Animals, Snap, and everything in between, so. 52 strong, and we start Season 2. Here's to another year, man, and just happy anniversary to the Snapchat. Absolutely love it. December, December, man. Are you you guys celebrate the holidays a lot over there?
Alexander Coccia:Oh yeah. Oh yeah. We're going pretty hard. The kids love it. I just I put up a 12 foot santa right in front of my house. Massive. Were you like massive? Santa
Cozy Snap:Claus bolting that down to the, to the house. How do you keep that baby up? Inflatable? Yeah.
Alexander Coccia:Oh yeah. It's inflatable. It's one of those big Costco Infl. It's Costco. It's a Costco inflatable Santa.
Cozy Snap:Okay. Okay. Here, here's a good question for you to get things going in December. Okay. If there was a Mount Rushmore, alright, and it did Mount Rushmore of Christmas songs hit me with like a few of those like that, that are on there for the Alex. Are you a Christmas like music guy?
Alexander Coccia:You know what? I'm not like a huge Christmas song person, but I do love Feliz Navidad. I can listen to that song. It's just such a good spirited song. The one that I really hate is that that last Christmas I gave you my heart song. Which is just so, it's so overplayed. I can't, I can't handle it. In fact, when I used to work retail years ago, years ago, I worked at a, basically a Best Buy, Canadian Best Buy. It was called Future Shop. And what I did was, we had like a CD player that c that controlled all the music in the store. And I would sneak in there, and I would put that song on repeat for hours and hours and hours until someone would notice and change it. But sometimes there'd be like an eight hour shift where that one song would repeat over and over again and no one would notice. That's how forgettable it is.
Cozy Snap:Hey, I hate you because literally it's on the rush more. There's no Dude, Wham! got the exclamation point from last Christmas. I mean, last Christmas is a is a is a Easily on the top four, man. And maybe there's a divide, like maybe there's a divide. We'll have to find out from our viewers. But dude, Last Christmas has got to be on. My most hated is probably, and I didn't know I hated this song until like it was playing. And I was like, I kill it. Get rid, the 12 Days of Christmas. I, I, it drives me, dude, it drives me nuts. I can't do it. Can't do that one. What else is on there? What
Alexander Coccia:are your other
Cozy Snap:like
Alexander Coccia:bangers? I mean, I really like, like Silent Night is a nice one, but you gotta be in the mood for that, like, you just gotta, it's a, it's a very somber song, right? But, like, I, I don't, I don't know, just, I just hate that one song. Everything else is good. I'll listen to anything else.
Cozy Snap:Rockin Around the Christmas Tree is like, is a, is a staple. We'll have to do, like, movies next week. Is a staple. The Christmas song, the, the chestnuts roasting? I mean, come on, that's like I'm not even sure what song it is. Chestnuts roasting over an open fire? You're pulling my leg. Come on, Jack Frost nipping at your nose?
Alexander Coccia:Okay, is that Frank Sinatra?
Cozy Snap:So you hate
Alexander Coccia:Christmas. I'm actually not sure. That was a legitimate question. I'm not trying to be funny.
Cozy Snap:Yeah. You hate the holidays. No, I get it. It's called the Christmas song. It's the Christmas song. I was not prepared for, I hate last Christmas. And what is the Christmas song by the way? Like invent I, we need to move on. I'm gonna get too angry here. And live from Boston, as always, I'm joined by the one and only Mr. Alex Coccia. We're getting to see each other for the first time at three dimensional space. I can confirm, guys, he is absolutely more of a dad than I thought. We had fans come up to us, and they were like, Can you take a photo? And Alex, like, had it on the selfie mode, and he was like, Oh, man! And then he smells like Costco. It's beautiful.
Alexander Coccia:Oh, thank you. I smell like Costco. I smell like the Costco hot dog.
Cozy Snap:Yeah. Maybe like, you know, maybe like the pizza. Okay, I'll give you the pizza. Okay dude, this is awesome. Like what, it's 73 plus weeks talking to you almost every day of my life, and we get to see each other, like, finally.
Alexander Coccia:I know, it's actually a surreal experience, and I bet you a lot of people online have a similar experience in the sense of like, you know, in gaming, you make friends. You make long lasting friends, and then like, They might live across the world from each other, right? And I think the first time you might experience this in like, World of Warcraft, other games, and then for Cozy and I, it's like obviously, Marvel Snap brought us together, our podcast brought us together, our content did, and it literally has been over 70 weeks where we talk literally on a regular basis, day to day, do this, we've never missed a week. We've never missed a week. And to see you in three dimensional space, it actually was like, mind blowing to me, and it took me like, hours to get used to
Cozy Snap:it. It was, it was a weird, for looking at someone every day, it was weird to like, Ha I have this like, unknown feeling of who you like. I'm like, whoa. Like I do. I don't know. I know you, but I've never seen you, but I've seen you. It's a weird concept. It's almost like, listen, we have like near, damn near a hundred plus people come up to us, which that the fan interaction has been mind blowing. I still like guys, I'm just a dude, right? Like, and, and Alex, just a dad. You know, we're both dads. But it, it's crazy to, to have this interaction of someone that you, you spend. Kind of a lot of time with, in a sense, right? And so PAX has been awesome, just the love of just games, people being able to be themselves, man. PAX is a really special event, it's really cool.
Alexander Coccia:It is, like, the thing I really love about it is just the freedom to be who you are, like, honestly. And if you want to spend seven hours playing card games with your friends, then play PAX. Card games for seven hours with your friends, you know what I mean? I mean, we
Cozy Snap:sat down and played this, some Star Wars Unlimited game that was a card game. Who, I forgot, my memory is, who won that? I think you remember who won, yeah. I think Alex won. Darth Vader, yeah, conquered, guys. It was a good time. We got something else. We got an announcement. We're pumped. It's been two years of Snapchat doing it all the time. And finally! Alex and I are gonna be hosting, co hosting Marvel Snap Conquerors. It's gonna be Maximum Effort Edition and I'm pumped, man. We've got you know, it's a, it's a song and dance. We've got creators. There's more specifics can be announced on like the Marvel Snap official channels. You'll see it on ours as well. But Alex and I, this Friday, are casting. I am amped to essentially just take this, like, we're just gonna take this, and go, and go cast some, some Snap games, man. I
Alexander Coccia:couldn't be more excited. This is like a lifelong dream coming true, being able to, like, cast an event for a game that I absolutely love, with someone who I absolutely love. This is gonna be so good, dude. I'm so excited. I don't know what else to say, other than, like, I cannot believe this is happening, and I cannot wait till Friday, and the guest list is absolutely remarkable. You guys are gonna be floored.
Cozy Snap:So through it all, I know that was long for some of you guys. For others, you could watch that all day and you know, that's why we wanted to put it together. And Alex, just, man, cheers, man. Cheers. I don't have we should have had, man, when we had the spicy apple juice the other day, we should have had that here, now. That's when you do toast, is on celebrations.
Alexander Coccia:Where is the spicy apple juice? I used to have a bottle with me and then people were like, why is Alex drinking directly from a spicy apple juice bottle? So I had to put it away. You had to put it away. It wasn't a good look.
