Best Gorgon, Laufey & Uncle Ben Decks in Marvel Snap

Navigating the ever-evolving world of *Marvel Snap* can be daunting with the constant influx of new cards. Thankfully, The Escapist is here to break down the best strategies for utilizing Gorgon, Laufey, and Uncle Ben in your decks.

How Gorgon Works in Marvel Snap

Gorgon is a 2-cost, 3-power card with an ability that reads: “Ongoing: Your opponent’s cards that didn’t start in their deck cost 1 more. (maximum 6)”

This card is a direct counter to Arishem decks, but its influence extends to other decks like Discard, which utilize Swarm, Iron Patriot, and Devil Dinosaur, though the latter is less common. Gorgon's effect can be negated by Mobius M. Mobius or anti-Ongoing cards like Rogue or Enchantress.

How Laufey Works in Marvel Snap

Laufey is a 4-cost, 5-power card with an ability that reads: “On Reveal: Steal 1 Power from each other card here.”

With this ability, Laufey can become a powerhouse, especially when there are four cards in the same location, turning him into a de facto 13-power card. Laufey synergizes well with Zabu for discounts, making it a perfect fit alongside cards like Diamondback and Ajax in affliction-style decks.

How Uncle Ben Works in Marvel Snap

Uncle Ben is a 1-cost, 2-power card with an ability that reads: “When this card is destroyed, replace it with Spider-Man.”

Spider-Man, a 2-cost, 4-power card, has an ability that reads: “On Reveal: Move to another location and pull an enemy card from here to there.” Uncle Ben works well with Destroy enablers like Carnage, Venom, and Lady Deathstrike, functioning similarly to Bucky Barnes.

These "free" cards are not necessarily must-haves, with Laufey being the notable exception for affliction-style Ajax decks. Let's start with Gorgon, which can be slotted into various decks:

Ant-Man
Ravonna Renslayer
Gorgon
Sam Wilson
Captain America
Mystique
Mister Fantastic
Luke Cage
Captain America
Moonstone
Anti-Venom (Or Iron Lad)
Iron Man
Spectrum

The Series 5 cards in this deck are Moonstone and Anti-Venom, which can be substituted with Iron Lad if needed. This deck excels in game modes like Conquest where Arishem decks are prevalent. Gorgon, when combined with Spectrum and Moonstone, can significantly hinder opponents by increasing the cost of their generated cards.

For Laufey, the ideal deck is Toxic Ajax:

Zabu
Hazmat
Scorpion
US Agent
Luke Cage
Diamondback
Red Guardian
Laufey
Malekith
Anti-Venom
Man-Thing
Ajax

This deck includes multiple Series 5 cards, but they're crucial for its effectiveness, except for Red Guardian, which can be replaced by Rocket Racoon and Groot. The strategy revolves around winning one lane with Ajax while dominating another with cards like US Agent and Diamondback. Anti-Venom and Malekith enhance the deck's performance.

Uncle Ben, the weakest of the trio, is challenging to integrate into decks. Here's an attempt:

The Hood
Uncle Ben
Yondu
Cable
Iron Patriot
Killmonger
Baron Zemo
Gladiator
Shang-Chi
Misery
Lady Deathstrike
Death

The Series 5 cards in this deck are Iron Patriot, Baron Zemo, and Misery, with the latter two being essential. The deck aims to disrupt the opponent's strategy while discounting Death and leveraging the effects of The Hood and Yondu with Misery. Killmonger and Lady Deathstrike can destroy Uncle Ben, summoning Spider-Man to further disrupt the opponent.

Should You Grind Sanctum Showdown in Marvel Rivals for Gorgon, Laufey & Uncle Ben?

Acquiring all three cards through the Sanctum Showdown in *Marvel Rivals* costs 3600 Charms, a hefty investment. Laufey is the only card truly worth considering if you enjoy affliction decks. It might be more beneficial to spend 2250 Charms on unowned Series 4 and 5 cards to diversify your collection.

And those are the best Gorgon, Laufey, and Uncle Ben decks in *Marvel Snap*.
