Marvel Snap has finally been released to the public on PC and mobile devices after spending a long time in closed beta testing. It seems like all the hype is finally paying off as more and more players are exploring the game each day.
There are a ton of different decks that players can build depending on different abilities and strategies, but some decks are just stronger than the rest. Players have been trying to find the best strategies and hidden tactics that can give them an advantage, and the bet synergies aren't always obvious.
10 Ongoing Decks With Spectrum
This particular deck makes use of cards with the Ongoing ability, but the use of Spectrum at the end can boost all the cards present on the board. Turn 6 Spectrum will add a +2 power to all the cards with Ongoing abilities.
Players can also play Cosmo to stop the Ongoing abilities of the opposition card, and the use of Armor is recommended because of protection from a destruction deck. Iron Man is also a great addition, as he can double the power in one of the lanes. Klaw and Mr. Fantastic have synergy with this deck as well, while using Namor can help lock down a location with only one card.
9 Discard With Apocalypse
This deck is primarily based on the use of cards with the discard archetype. The main aim is to discard as many cards that want to be discarded. For example, if players use Apocalypse, one of the strongest cards in the game, he will return with increased power each time.
The main discard cards should be Lady Sif, Blade, and Sword Master. Lady Sif will discard the highest-costing card, while Blade and Sword will discard a random card. The other cards should be 1-drops like Angela, who can provide a powerful push in the beginning.
8 Buffed Swarm
Marvel Snap was one of the most anticipated Marvel video game announcements in 2022, in large part to the flexibility and speed of its gameplay. This deck uses a really effective strategy of not relying on one single power or ability card. Instead, the play here is to flood the field with a lot of smaller cards in the beginning and then boost all of them in the second half.
For low-cost cards, Antman, Nightcrawler, and Squirrel Girl are great choices. For the second half, use cards such as Kazar, Blue Marvel, and Onslaught. They will buff all the smaller players on the field.
7 Stun Or Control
The aim of this deck is to nerf the opposition characters as much as possible. For example, using cards that stop the opponent from performing certain actions or cards which can change locations.
Spider-Man will stop the opponent from putting any cards at his location on the next turn, which can be huge. Similarly, Enchantress will remove any Ongoing abilities from her location, which wrecks characters like Devil Dinosaur or Blue Marvel. Storm is another great control card with her ability to change a location to "Flooded" and only allow one more turn of play there. Using swarming cards is also helpful in ensuring that there is enough power on the field to attack: Debris and Dr. Doom are great choices.
6 On Reveal With Wong
Marvel Snap is one of the best turn-based games out right now, and there are a lot of deck combinations left to be discovered. On-reveal cards have a surprising impact on the game, and using Wong with this archetype is a great play. He has the Ongoing effect, which will activate any On Reveal effects twice at his location.
Using Iron Heart, White Tiger, and Scorpion, which have on-reveal effects, will get triggered twice when played at Wong's location.Black Panther is also a new card with fantastic synergy, as he will double his power not once but twice on reveal with Wong.
5 Destruction With DeathPool
The name of this deck might confuse some players. DeathPool comes from two main cards in this deck, a cheap Deadpool, who is 1/1, and Death, who is 9/12. The main aim is to use cards that give a boost when they are destroyed.
This can be used to keep buffing Deadpool, who will become very strong by the end of the game. Characters with this destruction effect, like Carnage, Deathlok, and Killmonger, will have great synergy with the leading two players, as will cards that like being destroyed, like Bucky Barnes and Nova.
4 Destruction Synergy
Destruction or Removal is not that common in Marvel Snap, but when used with cards that benefit from its ability can make quite an effective deck. Destroyer is a great card here which will destroy all the other cards in play during its reveal.
With this card, players should focus on using cards that are either immune or benefit from this. For example, Bucky Barnes transforms into the much more powerful Winter Soldier when he is destroyed. Armor protects cards from destruction at her location, so she is a great addition to build up a second location and win condition away from the Destroyer.
3 Sera Miracle
Sera Miracle is a great combination of multiple strategies. Using Sera reduces the cost of every card by 1, which allows players to use 2-cost cards as if they are one cost, and so on. Angela and Bishop are examples of cards that benefit from more, cheaper cards hitting the field.
The aim here is to flood the field with as many 2-cost cards or play Sera in turn 5, letting the players flood the field in turn 6. Mysterio is a great choice with Bishop as his clones will power up Bishop. Using Dracula can help absorb Chavez's power. Some great choices for the deck would be Ant-Man, Scorpion, and Scarlet Witch, who is also one of the strongest female characters in the MCU, along with the rest mentioned.
2 Ka-Zoo
Ka-Zoo is a great deck to play in Pool 1, especially. The name of the deck comes from the use of a lot of cheap 1-cost cards (several of which are animal-themed, like Rocket Racoon) and playing Kazar, later on, to boost them up. Using Angela in an empty lane will help her gain +2 power with every card played.
Using Nightcrawler is also a great idea, as he can buff Angela and can be used to buff other lanes where needed later in the match with his teleport. Bishop will also gain +1 power with every card played after him. Blue Marvel is also a great play, along with Kazar, as Blue Marvel adds +1 power to all the cards on board. Onslaught can also be played in turn 6 to further increase their effects. Having America Chavez is also a great option, as players will only draw her in turn 6, which gives them the chance to play Kazar, Blue Marvel, and Onslaught before her. In card pool three, Patrio is another solids addition that boosts all the cheap cards without abilities on the board, like Squirrell Girl's squirrels.
1 Zero Destroy
Zero Destroy is also a great deck to play with once players are familiar with using it correctly. The deck should have Ebony Maw, Red Skull, and Typhoid Mary as the big power pushes and using Zero before them removes their detrimental negative effects.
Using Bucky Barnes, The Hood, Nova, Scorpion, and Sabretooth is a great destroy package that also provides some power in the deck. Using Venom as a target for Taskmaster other than Red Skull also gives the players choice while using this deck.
