How Doom 2099 Works in Marvel Snap

Doom 2099 is a 4-cost, 2-power card with a unique ability: "After each turn, add a DoomBot 2099 to a random location if you played (exactly) 1 card." The DoomBot 2099s are 4-cost, 2-power cards that come with an "Ongoing: Your other DoomBots and Doom have +1 Power" effect. This synergy extends to the original Doctor Doom, enhancing his power as well.

The key to maximizing Doom 2099's potential is playing one card per turn post-deployment. Early play can lead to three DoomBot 2099s on the board, adding significant power. If played early or combined with Magik to extend the game, Doom 2099 can act like a 4-cost, 17-power card, with potential for even greater impact.

However, there are two notable downsides. First, the random placement of DoomBot 2099s can sometimes cap your locations, potentially handing your opponent an advantage. Second, the recently buffed Enchantress can nullify the DoomBot 2099's effects, significantly reducing your board's power.

Best Day One Doom 2099 Decks in Marvel Snap

Given Doom 2099's requirement to play one card per turn, it's likely to revitalize Spectrum Ongoing decks. Here’s a recommended list:

• Ant-Man
• Goose
• Psylocke
• Captain America
• Cosmo
• Electro
• Doom 2099
• Wong
• Klaw
• Doctor Doom
• Spectrum
• Onslaught

This deck is cost-effective, with only Doom 2099 as a Series 5 card. Strategies include early deployment of Doom 2099 using Psylocke or using Electro to set up a strong turn 4 play. Psylocke enables powerful combos with Wong, Klaw, and Doctor Doom, while the Electro route allows for playing multiple high-cost cards like Onslaught alongside DoomBot 2099s and Spectrum. The deck is versatile, allowing pivots to regular Doctor Doom or surprise Spectrum buffs if Doom 2099 is played late. Cosmo is crucial to protect against Enchantress.

Another effective approach is a Patriot-style deck featuring Doom 2099:

• Ant-Man
• Zabu
• Dazzler
• Mister Sinister
• Patriot
• Brood
• Doom 2099
• Super Skrull
• Iron Lad
• Blue Marvel
• Doctor Doom
• Spectrum

This deck is also budget-friendly, with Doom 2099 as the sole Series 5 card. It plays similarly to a traditional Patriot deck, with early plays like Mister Sinister and Brood leading into Doom 2099, followed by Blue Marvel, Doctor Doom, or Spectrum. Zabu helps discount 4-cost cards for early plays if Patriot isn't drawn. While this deck is vulnerable to Enchantress, Super Skrull is included to counter other Doom 2099 decks.

Is Doom 2099 Worth Spotlight Cache Keys or Collector’s Tokens?

Despite the weaker cards accompanying Doom 2099 in the Spotlight Caches (Daken and Miek), Doom 2099 is a must-have. His powerful and cost-effective nature ensures he will be a staple in the meta. If you have Collector’s Tokens, use them to secure him, but don’t hesitate to roll for him in Spotlight Caches. Doom 2099 is poised to become one of the most impactful cards in Marvel Snap, unless Second Dinner decides to nerf him.
