Marvel Snap: Up Your Game with Victoria Hand Decks

Marvel Snap's Victoria Hand: Deck Strategies and Spotlight Cache Value

Despite the ongoing popularity of Pokémon TCG Pocket, Marvel Snap continues its steady stream of new cards. This month's addition, Victoria Hand, offers exciting synergistic possibilities, especially when paired with the season pass card, Iron Patriot. This guide explores the best Victoria Hand decks currently available in Marvel Snap.

How Victoria Hand Works

Victoria Hand is a 2-cost, 3-power card with the ongoing ability: “Your cards created in your hand have +2 Power.” This straightforward ability functions similarly to Cerebro, but only for cards generated in your hand, not your deck. This means cards like Arishem won't benefit. Optimal synergy exists with cards such as Maria Hill, Sentinel, Agent Coulson, and Iron Patriot. Initially, be wary of Rogues and Enchantresses attempting to disrupt her effect; her 2-cost Ongoing nature allows for strategic late-game deployment.

Top Victoria Hand Decks (Day One)

Victoria Hand's best pairing is arguably with the season pass card, Iron Patriot, which generates a high-cost card with a cost reduction. These two cards are often found together in decks. One such deck revives the Devil Dinosaur archetype:

• Maria Hill, Quinjet, Hydra Bob, Hawkeye, Kate Bishop, Iron Patriot, Sentinel, Victoria Hand, Mystique, Agent Coulson, Shang-Chi, Wiccan, Devil Dinosaur

This deck utilizes Hydra Bob (substitutable with a 1-cost card like Nebula), Kate Bishop, and Wiccan (essential). Victoria Hand's synergy with Sentinel is particularly potent: a single Hand boosts generated Sentinels to 2-cost, 5-power cards; with Mystique, this increases to 7 power. A Quinjet further amplifies this effect. Wiccan provides a late-game power surge, potentially combining with Devil Dinosaur, Victoria Hand, and a Sentinel for a powerful final turn. If Wiccan fails to activate, Devil Dinosaur provides a fallback option, potentially copied by Mystique for broader board control.

Another deck incorporates the often-dreaded Arishem, even though Hand doesn't directly affect cards added to the deck:

• Hawkeye, Kate Bishop, Sentinel, Valentina, Agent Coulson, Doom 2099, Galactus, Daughter of Galactus, Nick Fury, Legion, Doctor Doom, Alioth, Mockingbird, Arishem

(Copyable list available via Untapped)

This deck leverages the card generation of Hawkeye, Kate Bishop, Sentinel, Valentina, Agent Coulson, and Nick Fury. While Arishem's nerf reduces energy gain until turn 3, the deck's inherent randomness keeps opponents guessing, building on Arishem's established meta presence.

Is Victoria Hand Worth the Investment?

Victoria Hand is a valuable addition for players enjoying hand-generation strategies, complementing Iron Patriot perfectly. Her powerful effect suggests future meta appearances. However, she isn't a must-have, collection-defining card. Her value relative to upcoming cards might make her a worthwhile investment.

Conclusion

Victoria Hand provides exciting new deck-building possibilities in Marvel Snap. Whether you choose to add her to your collection depends on your playstyle and collection priorities. Marvel Snap remains available to play now.
