How Moonstone Functions in Marvel Snap

Moonstone is a 4-cost, 6-power card with the ongoing effect: "Ongoing: Has the Ongoing effects of your 1, 2, and 3-Cost cards here."

Moonstone's synergy is exceptional with cards like Ant-Man, Quinjet, Ravonna Renslayer, and Patriot. Crucially, combining her with Mystique allows for powerful duplication of effects, especially with cards like Iron Man and Onslaught.

However, Moonstone is vulnerable to Enchantress, which negates lane effects unless countered by Cosmo. Echo is another, less common counter to be aware of, particularly in combo-heavy decks.

Top Moonstone Decks on Day One

Moonstone integrates well into decks featuring low-cost Ongoing cards. Two leading contenders are Patriot decks and Victoria Hand decks incorporating Devil Dinosaur. Let's examine the Patriot deck:

Wasp, Ant-Man, Dazzler, Mister Sinister, Invisible Woman, Mystique, Patriot, Brood, Iron Lad, Moonstone, Blue Marvel, Ultron. [Untapped decklist link here]

This deck, excluding Moonstone, avoids Series 5 cards. The core strategy involves combining Patriot and Mystique, followed by Ultron for a powerful final turn play. Adding Moonstone amplifies this effect significantly. Ant-Man and Dazzler provide additional synergy, while Iron Lad offers card draw flexibility. Invisible Woman protects key cards from counters (except Alioth).

The next recommended deck is a Victoria Hand deck with Devil Dinosaur and Wiccan:

Quicksilver, Hawkeye, Kate Bishop, Victoria Hand, Mystique, Cosmo, Agent Coulson, Copycat, Moonstone, Wiccan, Devil Dinosaur, Gorr the God Butcher, Alioth. [Untapped decklist link here]

This deck includes Series 5 cards (Victoria Hand, Wiccan, potentially replaceable Copycat). The strategy centers on Devil Dinosaur, amplified by Mystique and Agent Coulson. Victoria Hand boosts card effects, while Moonstone adds another layer of strategic depth. Careful placement of Cosmo is crucial to counter opposing Enchantress or Rogue cards.

Is Moonstone Worth the Investment?

Yes, Moonstone is a valuable addition to Marvel Snap, likely to remain meta-relevant for an extended period. Her synergy with Mystique unlocks numerous possibilities, and her adaptability extends to Zoo decks. The release of any new Ongoing card will necessitate consideration of its synergy with Moonstone, promising further deck innovation.
