Let’s dive in a bit earlier this month to make up for last month’s later release. It’s a new month and a new season, and I’m ready to give you some deck-building advice to keep you competitive Marvel Snapshot (free). To be honest, I feel like the game has entered a pretty balanced zone over the course of the last month. A new season means new cards, so everything is going to be chaotic again. Let’s try to figure it out, shall we? As always, remember: today’s winning card may be tomorrow’s crunchy brown leaves. These guidelines are one way to keep your finger on the pulse of your scene, but they’re not the only ones you should use.
Note that most of these decks are the best available right now. They assume you have access to the full range of cards. I will select the strongest five again Marvel Snapshot Current decks, I’ll be adding more decks that don’t require anything too hard to get and are fun to play. You know, a little bit of variety and stuff.
I’d go so far as to say that most of the Young Avengers cards didn’t really make a splash. Kate Bishop hits her mark, as is her wont, and Marvel Boy certainly makes a difference for fans of the 1-cost Kazoo deck, but the rest The ones are a bit messy. You see them everywhere, but they haven’t changed the status quo. I can’t say the same for the new Amazing Spider-Man Season, as it looks like it’s arriving like a wrecking ball with its new activated abilities. I’m sure next month will be very, very different.
Qajar and Gilgamesh
Contains Cards: Ant-Man, Nebula, Squirrel Girl, Dazzler, Kate Bishop, Marvel Boy, Keira, Shayna, Ka-Zar, Blue Marvel, Gilgamesh, Mockingbird
So that’s where it ends, huh? I never imagined that one day Kazu would be among the top decks, but Young Avengers has achieved that goal. At its core, this is a very familiar deck. Get a bunch of low-cost cards and power them up with Khazar and Blue Miracles. The new trick here is that Marvel Boy adds more buffs, and Gilgamesh benefits greatly from them. Kate Bishop and her arrows can help fill the Dazzler’s space if needed, and her arrows will help reduce the cost of your other heavy hitter, the Robin. A very good deck with strong performance. We’ll see if it can hang there.
The Silver Surfer Still Lives, Part 2
Contains Cards: Nova, Forge, Cassandra Nova, Brod, Silver Surfer, Killmonger, Hope Summers, Nocturne, Sebastian Shaw, Mimic, Absorber, gwenpool
Silver Surfer is still in rapid development, with some tweaks being made to account for balance changes and new cards. If you’ve been playing for a while, you’ll know where this is going. Once you have some classic Nova/Killmonger pairs, you can enhance your deck a bit. Forge is ideal for buffing Brood, making its clones stronger. Gwenpool empowers the cards in your hand, Shaw makes you stronger with enhancements, Hope gives you more energy, and Cassandra Nova from Take power from your opponents, and the Surfer/Absorber combo ends it all in style. Copycat takes Red Guardian’s spot as she has proven to be a very useful general tool.
Spectrum and humanoid objects in progress
Contains Cards: Wasp, Ant-Man, Howard Duck, Armor, U.S. Agent, Lizard, Captain America, Steven Universe, Luke Cage, Ms. Marvel, Humanoid, Spectrum
Even the ongoing prototype is at the top, which is another interesting result. Here are some generally useful cards, all with ongoing abilities. This means Spectra will give them a nice final turn buff. The Luke Cage/Humanoid combo is also a really good combo, and Luke will even protect your cards from the powerful effects of U.S. Agent. Another great thing about this deck is that it’s very easy to play, and I have a feeling that as things progress, Cosmo will become more useful than he already is.
Drop Dracula
Contains Cards: Blade, Morbius, Collector, Swarm, Colleen Wing, Moon Knight, Corvus Glaive, Lady Sif, Dracula, Proxima Midnight, Murdoc, Apocalypse
Classics are the mainstream and the theme today. This is a pretty solid Apocalypse-style discard deck, with the only real change from standard being the presence of Moon Knight. His condition improved after strengthening. Regardless, your big cards are Morbius and Dracula, and if all goes well, you’ll have nothing but Apocalypse in your hand by the end of the round. Dracula will eat him, you’ll get a giant Dracula, and Morbius should be running around from all the discard you’ve been doing. Collectors might even be a bit cheeky if you take the swarm to town regularly.
destroy
Contains Cards: Deadpool, Nicomin, X-23, Carnage, Wolverine, Killmonger, Deathlok, Attuma, Nimrod, Knull, Death
Yes, this is the Destruction deck. Even very, very close to tradition. Due to recent changes, Attuma has taken its place here. A very successful hobbyist, that. Kill Deadpool and Wolverine as much as you can, use the X-23 for extra power-ups, end the fight with a nice Nimrod swarm, or throw Knull if you’re feeling cute. It’s weird to see a deck like this without Arnim Zora, but I guess countermeasures have become all too common these days.
Now, there are some fun decks for those of you who are still climbing the collecting ladder or just want to try something different.
Blackhawk is back (did he ever leave?)
Contains Cards: Hood, Spider-Ham, Korg, Nicomin, Cassandra Nova, Moon Knight, Rockslide, Viper, Proxima Midnight, Blackhawk, Black Bolt, Body
I’ve always liked Dahok, even though he seemed goofy from the first appearance. So I’m glad that he’s such a competitive card in Marvel Snap that I enjoy modifying decks with him. The game features classic combos, with Korg and Rockslide adding cards to the opponent’s deck. It also contains some spoiler cards like Spider-Ham and Cassandra Nova, as well as several cards that cause your opponent to discard cards and reduce the cost of your body. Yay, Dochawk!
Budget hotels in Kajar
Contains Cards: Ant-Man, Elektra, Iceman, Nightcrawler, Armor, Mister Fantastic, Steven Universe, Ka’Zar, Namor, Blue Miracle, Klaw, Onslaught
If the Ka’zar decks out there look good, but you’re just getting started, you might as well practice with this beginner-friendly variant. No, it probably won’t win as reliably as the polished version. But it will teach you how this combination works, which is valuable experience. You still get a nice combination of Kajal and Blue Miracle, plus a delicious onslaught of football excitement.
Here’s this month’s deck guide. With the latest season arriving, and whatever balance changes The Second Supper makes over the course of the month, I’m sure October will look very different. This activation ability really changes the flow of the game, and Symbiote Spider-Man wants to be a complete beast. As always, it will be interesting to see how the cards and decks in Second Supper respond to balance changes. It’s fun to see a classic at the top again, but I can’t imagine it staying that way. Now… happy shooting!
