There are a ridiculous amount of different decks to be built from Marvel Snap’s vast cast of characters. But which will help you win the most matches? That’s the golden question. We spoke to creator Ben Brode and asked him for the inside scoop on three of his best decks as well as what his favourite overall card is.
“Okay, so the deck I was playing earlier today is an Omega Red deck, and it's a sneaky deck”, says Brode. “It has a combo. The combo is three cards. It's Omega Red, Iron Man, and Onslaught. With that combo you have just a humongous amount of power in a location because Omega Red is five power, Iron Man doubles it, and then Onslaught doubles the double again.

“So on turn one I play like Ebony Maw somewhere, and on turn three I just play like Punisher, or maybe Mister Fantastic. Or just a one drop and a two drop to try and just get as much power as I can somewhere, to make it so that my plus eight power will eventually win it. It's
