MARVEL SNAP's first Series Drop happened this week, and to celebrate we've gathered a handful of decks from around the internet that include at least one of the newest additions to Series 3, so you can hit the ground running as soon as one of these cards finds its way into your collection.
Decks for Absorbing Man
On Reveal: If the last card you played has an On Reveal, copy its text. (if it's in play)
Absorbing Man can copy a number of destructive On Reveal effects in this list from MilkySnap to continue the chain of boosts given to Deadpool and the newly-buffed Wolverine. If it's later in the game, he can copy Taskmaster for another source of huge Power.
Zabu and Dracula are a fearsome pair, and, if we're honest, just about any collection of 4-Drops in a deck with Zabu is good - which is why he'll be getting nerfed soon. Absorbing Man works great as a flexible swiss-army knife to copy Spider-Man and deny an additional location, or copy Jubilee to summon another large body to the board.
This deck from TheDycer uses Absorbing Man to his most flexible fullest by either copying other 4-Drops thanks to Zabu's discount, or copying Doctor Doom thanks to turn 3 Wave. We've featured this list before, but it fits so well with the theme of this article that we figured it deserved another mention.
Decks for Luke Cage
Ongoing: Your cards can't have their Power reduced.
The main combo for Luke Cage in SNAP is Hazmat, so it's no surprise that all three of these decks will feature slightly different takes on that synergy. This list is an Ongoing tribal deck that uses Luke both to protect from a Wong-boosted Hazmat, and from the debuff of Typhoid Mary - seeing as how a 4-Drop with 10 Power is pretty good if it has no downside.
If you want to go full Hazmat Cage, this is probably the list for you. It packs in Wong, Mystique, and Odin to send your opponent's cards as far into the red as they can go.
If you're not entirely sure you want to try for the full combo, you can instead go for a half-measure that still runs Wong for Hazmat, but can pivot into a Black Panther play instead. And hey, Absorbing Man is here, too!
Decks for She-Hulk
Costs 1 less for each unspent Energy last turn.
She-Hulk has been a near-staple in decks running Death and Wave since she was added to the game. SafetyBlade put together this list to test the strength of the new-and-improved Wolverine while depending on a reliable turn 6 where you can play as many as three large cards to various locations across the board.
This deck gets a little complicated, but the main idea is to use Moon Girl to copy She-Hulk, then play Magik on turn 5 to add an extra turn to the game. You then skip turn 6, and on turn 7 play a pair of She-Hulks and The Infinaut at the same time for a game-winning influx of Power.
This Ramp deck from Taihou uses the extra Power gained from Electro to make playing She-Hulk that much easier, then packs in a clutch of 6-Drops to make full use of the extra Energy provided to it. When you have two turns to play it, the newly-nerfed Leader isn't as bad as it could be.
Decks for Titania
When ANY card is played at this location, this card switches sides.
Titania is a good target for Zero, while also not being hugely punishing if you can't find a way to Silence her. She is essentially a lower-ceiling, higher-floor version of Ebony Maw.
One thing Titania is really good with is decks that can fill up their opponent's locations quickly and with little hassle. This Clutter deck throws all sorts of junk their opponent's way, guaranteeing that you get to keep the 5 Power 1-Drop on your side of the board.
Did you know that Cerebro can go as high as 5? It's true, mainly thanks to Titania, and Silver Surfer adding 3 Power to 2 Power 3-Drops like Brood and Storm. It's a fine line to walk, but if you have the urge to try it out, you might want to do so quickly, before the Surfer becomes a Nerfer (get it?).

Comments
Thanks for showcasing my deck a second time. If I didn't experiment with other archetypes to ladder faster as I collected more cards, I probably could have ground out Infinite at one or two cubes a match. This is the best list I've been able to pilot so far, but I still have a lot more cards to collect.
Nobody plays this game
You're out of touch. I'm out of time. But I'm out of my head when you're not around.
You mean the game that won the 2022 Game Awards for best mobile game, even surpassing giants like Genshin Impact?
So, aren't you mad that this game no longer as famous as you claimed it ? =]
