Marvel Snap: The Best Man-Thing Deck
Man-Thing revives the toxic archetype in Marvel Snap; here’s how to use it for building deadly lineups.
The Best Deck for Psylocke
In Marvel Snap’s latest META, the ideal Psylocke deck is a Zabu-Bast ramp lineup. To assemble this combination, players will need to have Mobius, Sunspot, Jubilee, Wong, Odin, Forge, Sera, America Chavez, and Absorbing Man.
Card | Cost | Power |
Psylocke | 2 | 3 |
Zabu | 2 | 2 |
Sera | 5 | 4 |
Mobius M. Mobius | 2 | 3 |
Forge | 1 | 1 |
Bast | 1 | 1 |
Absorbing Man | 4 | 4 |
Sunspot | 1 | 0 |
Jubilee | 4 | 1 |
Wong | 4 | 2 |
Odin | 6 | 8 |
America Chavez | 6 | 9 |
Here’s how each card synergizes with Psylocke:
- Psylocke: Gives one extra Energy in the next round.
- Zabu: Reduces the Cost of 4-Cost cards by one.
- Bast: Set the Cost of cards at hand to three.
- Sera: Reduces the Cost of cards that come to hand by one.
- Sunspot: Gains +1 Power for each unspent Energy.
- Mobius M. Mobius: Stops Cost-reduction for the enemy and Cost-increase for friendly cards.
- Wong: Doubles the On Reveal abilities at his location.
- Odin: Activates the On Reveal effect of cards in his lane.
- Forge: Gives +2 Power to the next card.
- Jubilee: Adds the deck’s top card to the board.
- America Chavez: Always shows up in the sixth round.
- Absorbing Man: Copies the text of the previous On Reveal card.
How to Play a Psylocke Deck
Marvel Snap players should use Psylocke in a ramp archetype. The goal with her deck must be preparing the board for a late-game attack with heavy drops like Odin and America Chavez.
In the current lineup, Psylocke, paired with Zabu, Bast, and Sera, reduces the Cost of four and six-Cost cards at hand. This way, she allows a faster Power rush, surprising the opponent in rounds four and five. A nice combo for Psylocke is Absorbing Man into Wong while cards like Jubilee and Forge are on the board.
How to Counter Psylocke
Since Psylocke is an On Reveal card, she can be countered with Cosmo and Yondu. Cosmo stops her effect immediately by disallowing On Reveal abilities in her location. However, Yondu has an indirect impact as it disrupts Psylocke’s end-game strategy by destroying the top card in her deck.
