How Gorgon Works in Marvel Snap

Gorgon is a 2-cost, 3-power card with the ability: “Ongoing: Your opponent’s cards that didn’t start in their deck cost 1 more (maximum 6).” This directly counters Arishem decks and impacts strategies relying on cards drawn into the hand, like Discard decks. However, effects like Mobius M. Mobius or anti-Ongoing cards (Rogue, Enchantress) can negate Gorgon's power.

How Laufey Works in Marvel Snap

Laufey is a 4-cost, 5-power card with the ability: “On Reveal: Steal 1 Power from each other card here.” With four cards in a location, Laufey effectively becomes a 13-power card. Similar to Spider-Woman, but potentially stronger due to Zabu synergy, making it a powerful addition to decks including Diamondback and Ajax.

How Uncle Ben Works in Marvel Snap

Uncle Ben is a 1-cost, 2-power card with the ability: “When this card is destroyed, replace it with Spider-Man.” This synergizes well with Destroy effects (Carnage, Venom, Lady Deathstrike), offering an alternative to Bucky Barnes.

This deck utilizes Ongoing effects with Moonstone, aiming for discounted Iron Man and Mystique plays. While Gorgon isn't always the optimal turn 2 play, he provides value in specific matchups and game modes.

• Scorpion
• U.S. Agent
• Luke Cage
• Diamondback
• Red Guardian
• Laufey
• Malekith
• Anti-Venom
• Man-Thing
• Ajax

This deck aims for lane dominance with Ajax and supporting cards like U.S. Agent and Diamondback. The high number of Series 5 cards makes this deck expensive to build. Consider replacing Red Guardian with Rocket Raccoon and Groot.

Uncle Ben Deck:

• The Hood
• Uncle Ben
• Yondu
• Cable
• Iron Patriot
• Killmonger
• Baron Zemo
• Gladiator
• Shang-Chi
• Misery

This deck focuses on disrupting the opponent's deck while leveraging the synergy between card destruction and Uncle Ben's transformation into Spider-Man.

Should You Grind Sanctum Showdown for Gorgon, Laufey & Uncle Ben?

Acquiring all three cards requires 3600 Charms, a significant investment. Laufey is the most valuable for specific deck archetypes. Consider prioritizing Series 4 and 5 cards instead, unless you're heavily invested in affliction decks.
