With the constant influx of new cards in *Marvel Snap*, keeping up can be a challenge. Thankfully, The Escapist is here to guide you through the latest additions. Here's a detailed look at the best decks featuring Gorgon, Laufey, and Uncle Ben, helping you maximize their potential in the game.
Gorgon is a 2-cost, 3-power card with an ability that reads: "Ongoing: Your opponent’s cards that didn’t start in their deck cost 1 more. (maximum 6)"
This card serves as a direct counter to Arishem decks, but it also impacts other strategies like Discard decks that rely on cards like Swarm, Iron Patriot, and Devil Dinosaur. However, its effect can be neutralized by cards like Mobius M. Mobius or anti-Ongoing cards such as Rogue or Enchantress.
Laufey is a 4-cost, 5-power card with an ability that reads: "On Reveal: Steal 1 Power from each other card here."
This ability can make Laufey a powerhouse, especially in locations with four cards, effectively turning it into a 13-power card. It's similar to Spider-Woman but enhanced, as Laufey can be discounted by Zabu, making it a great fit for decks featuring Diamondback and Ajax.
Uncle Ben is a 1-cost, 2-power card with an ability that reads: "When this card is destroyed, replace it with Spider-Man."
Spider-Man, a 2-cost, 4-power card, has an ability that reads: "On Reveal: Move to another location and pull an enemy card from here to there."
Uncle Ben synergizes well with Destroy enablers like Carnage, Venom, and Lady Deathstrike, offering a strategic alternative to Bucky Barnes.
While these cards are "free," they aren't necessarily game-changers, except perhaps Laufey in affliction-style Ajax decks. Let's explore how to integrate them into your decks effectively.
Gorgon Deck:

This deck includes Series 5 cards like Moonstone and Anti-Venom, which can be substituted with Iron Lad if needed. Gorgon can be a versatile addition, particularly effective against Arishem decks in Conquest mode, and can be enhanced by Spectrum and Moonstone. The primary win condition involves stacking Ongoing effects or leveraging discounted Iron Man and Mystique for a powerful final turn.
Laufey Deck:

This deck is heavy on Series 5 cards, which are crucial for its effectiveness, except for Red Guardian, which can be replaced by Rocket Raccoon and Groot. The strategy focuses on winning one lane with Ajax while dominating another with cards like US Agent and Diamondback. Anti-Venom and Malekith add significant value, especially in decks with Luke Cage.
Uncle Ben Deck:

This deck includes Series 5 cards like Iron Patriot, Baron Zemo, and Misery, with the latter two being essential. The strategy revolves around disrupting your opponent's deck while discounting your Death card, retriggering effects with Misery, and using Killmonger and Lady Deathstrike to destroy Uncle Ben, spawning Spider-Man to further disrupt your opponent.
Acquiring these three cards in the new game mode costs 3600 Charms, which is quite substantial. Of the three, Laufey is the most worthwhile if you're interested in affliction decks. However, it might be more beneficial to spend 2250 Charms on unowned Series 4 and 5 cards, depending on your current collection, as this approach could yield more impactful additions to your deck.
And those are the best Gorgon, Laufey, and Uncle Ben decks in Marvel Snap.
