Best Gorgon, Laufey & Uncle Ben Decks in Marvel Snap

Navigating the ever-expanding card roster in *Marvel Snap* can be a challenge. This guide helps you understand and utilize three recently added cards: Gorgon, Laufey, and Uncle Ben. We'll explore their mechanics and showcase effective deck builds.

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 decks that heavily utilize generated cards, like Arishem strategies. It also impacts decks relying on cards drawn into their hand, such as Discard decks. However, cards like Mobius M. Mobius or Ongoing effect negators (Rogue, Enchantress) can counter Gorgon's effect.

How Laufey Works in Marvel Snap

Laufey, a 4-cost, 5-power card, has the ability: “On Reveal: Steal 1 Power from each other card here.” Its effectiveness scales with the number of cards in the location. Combined with Zabu, Laufey becomes a powerful addition to decks featuring cards like 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 from cards like Carnage, Venom, and Lady Deathstrike, providing a potent alternative to Bucky Barnes.
