Marvel Snap's Newest Addition: Moonstone and Her Top Decks
Moonstone, a relatively obscure Marvel Comics character, joins the Marvel Snap roster during the Dark Avengers season. This 4-cost, 6-power card boasts a unique ability: "Ongoing: Has the Ongoing effects of your 1, 2, and 3-Cost cards here." This makes her incredibly versatile and powerful.
Moonstone's Synergies and Weaknesses:
Moonstone excels when paired with cards like Ant-Man, Quinjet, Ravonna Renslayer, and Patriot. Combining her with Mystique allows for powerful duplication of Ongoing effects, including those of Iron Man and Onslaught. However, she's vulnerable to Enchantress, which negates lane effects unless countered by Cosmo. Echo is another, less common, counter to watch out for.
Top Moonstone Decks (Day One):
Two prominent archetypes immediately benefit from Moonstone's inclusion: Patriot and Victoria Hand/Devil Dinosaur.
-
Patriot Deck: This deck utilizes the classic Patriot/Mystique/Ultron combo for massive power generation. Adding Moonstone amplifies this strategy significantly, potentially doubling the power output. Ant-Man and Dazzler provide additional synergy, while Iron Lad helps find crucial cards. Invisible Woman protects key cards from counters (excluding Alioth). A sample decklist includes: Wasp, Ant-Man, Dazzler, Mister Sinister, Invisible Woman, Mystique, Patriot, Brood, Iron Lad, Moonstone, Blue Marvel, Ultron.
-
Victoria Hand/Devil Dinosaur Deck: This popular deck focuses on buffing and copying Devil Dinosaur. Moonstone enhances this strategy by inheriting the buffs from Victoria Hand, especially when copied by Mystique. Careful placement of Cosmo is crucial to counter Enchantress. A sample decklist includes: Quicksilver, Hawkeye, Kate Bishop, Victoria Hand, Mystique, Cosmo, Agent Coulson, Copycat, Moonstone, Wiccan, Devil Dinosaur, Gorr the God Butcher, Alioth. Note that Victoria Hand, Wiccan, and Copycat are Series 5 cards. Copycat can be substituted with a suitable 3-cost card.
Is Moonstone Worth the Investment?
Yes. Moonstone's synergy with Mystique and her potential in various decks (including Zoo) make her a valuable addition. Her impact on the meta is expected to be significant and long-lasting.
