Looking for a MARVEL SNAP deck to help you climb to Infinite, or looking for something fresh and hip to take out for a spin? We've gathered 10 decks from around the SNAP community that can help you win games while also having fun. This week, it's (mostly) all about the new Season Pass card, Hit Monkey.
On Reveal: Gain +2 Power for each other card you played this turn.
If you're in the market for some strategic advice, we've included our *personal* recommendations for when it's OK to Snap early with each deck - your mileage may vary.
Series 2 Monkey Zoo
If you're early on in your MARVEL SNAP journey, but still want to find a home for your newly-purchased Hit Monkey, we've got just the budget list for you. This deck is packed with 1-Drops to play and make the most powerful Monkey, while buffs from Ka-Zar, Blue Marvel, and Okoye make each 1-Drop more threatening.
Snap Early If: You have a good curve into AoE buffs, with the ability to get at least 6 Power onto Hit Monkey.
den's Sera Control
Sera Control continues to be very good - it turns out that reducing the cost of your cards makes it easier to win games. This Sera control list from den cut Lizard for Hit Monkey and hasn't looked back. Enchantress is great if you run up against people running Devil Dinosaur or Iron Man.
Snap Early If: You have Sera in hand for turn 5, and you're reasonably sure you can answer any opposing threats.
EducatedCollins's Hulk-Monkey
Sans-Sera, you can still abuse cost reduction and get a lot of Power into play with or without Hit Monkey, in this deck brewed up by EducatedCollins that doubles its potential She-Hulk output with Moon Girl, while using Beast to bounce cheap things back to hand and reduce their cost for an impactful Monkey turn.
Snap Early If: You have Moon Girl and She-Hulk, or if you have Moon Girl and Hit Monkey with enough cheap cards to fuel his On Reveal.
Freddybabes's Anti-Monkey Control
If you're tired of all this monkeying around, FreddyBabes has you covered with a deck specifically designed to thwart the legions of Hit Monkey players. Sandman was made for this moment, but a turn 5 Wave can do just as much damage.
Snap Early If: You can follow up on a turn 3 Wave with something that'll really drive your opponent bananas.
Retsudo's Surfer Control
If you're more interested in a Control deck that doesn't go out of its way to target a specific deck, then this Silver Surfer deck from Retsudo might be more your speed. Daredevil can help win a location on turn 5 by giving you the scoop on your opponent's play, then a turn 6 Surfer will swoop down and bestow the cosmic gift of +2 Power upon all your other 3-Drops.
Snap Early If: You can use Daredevil to spy on your opponent's play, and you can keep priority in your favor for potential Cosmo denial.
Sandman Ramp
If you like proactive strategies, but still want to avoid losing to Hit Monkey, try this Electro Ramp deck that can use the extra Energy to play an early Sandman, or Leech away all their precious card text.
Snap Early If: You have Electro on 3, with either Sandman or Leech to follow-up.
KM Best's Monkey Business
The most popular card to pair with Hit Monkey currently is stalwart Series 4 card Bast, who can boost the Monkey's Power before he even hits the board. This list from KM Best runs Darkhawk as an alternate big body and Bast target, while most everything else is cheap cards that can be bounced by Beast and Falcon.
Snap Early If: You have Bast for some important buffs, with one of your bounce effects to bring her back and do it again.
ninaisnoob's Negative Monkey
Hit Monkey gives Mister Negative another 0 Power target, and this deck from ninaisnoob shows that potential with a couple of ways to get an early Negative swap and a host of cards that can all benefit from being swapped.
Snap Early If: You have either Zabu or Psylocke on turn 2, with Mister Negative in hand.
OrdinaryHarry's Two Punch Monkey
This Hit Monkey deck from OrdinaryHarry delivers a one-two punch with plenty of 0-Drops to aid the Monkey in his journey for more Power. Thor provides some juice with Mjolnir, which can be drawn (along with your other 0 Cost cards) by Jane Foster. If you play an early Monkey, then bounce him with Beast, you can play all those cards plus Valkyrie on the final turn.
Snap Early If: You can bounce an early Hit Monkey, then use Jane Foster to feed a final turn bonanza (or is that bananaza?)
SafetyBlade's Sauron Flood
This deck from SafetyBlade features Hit Monkey (what a surprise!) in a shell with a different Series 4 card: Sauron, who can erase the drawbacks of Ebony Maw and Lizard, thereby making them much more palatable to play (in some cases, possible to play). The Moon Girl She-Hulk combo makes a reappearance, because it's just that good.
Snap Early If: You can use a turn 3 Sauron to free up a later play with Ebony Maw, preferably if you can get an extra copy of the Maw with Moon Girl.
