Best Gorgon, Laufey & Uncle Ben Decks in Marvel Snap

Navigating the ever-expanding card roster in *Marvel Snap* can be daunting. This guide simplifies things by focusing on effective decks built around Gorgon, Laufey, and Uncle Ben—three cards recently added to the game.

How Gorgon Works in Marvel Snap

Gorgon, a 2-cost, 3-power card, boasts the ability: “Ongoing: Your opponent’s cards that didn’t start in their deck cost 1 more (maximum 6).” This directly counters Arishem decks and impacts strategies like Discard, hindering cards like Swarms and Iron Patriot. However, effects like Mobius M. Mobius, Rogue, or Enchantress can negate Gorgon's power.

How Laufey Works in Marvel Snap

Laufey is a 4-cost, 5-power card with the ability: “On Reveal: Steal 1 Power from each other card here.” With four cards in the opposing location, Laufey becomes a potent 13-power card. Similar to Spider-Woman, but potentially stronger due to Zabu synergy, Laufey pairs well with cards like Diamondback and Ajax.

How Uncle Ben Works in Marvel Snap

Uncle Ben, a 1-cost, 2-power card, has the ability: “When this card is destroyed, replace it with Spider-Man.” This synergy with Destroy cards like Carnage, Venom, and Lady Deathstrike makes him a viable alternative to Bucky Barnes.
