Best Starter Marvel Snap Deck for Beginners
One of the simplest decks you can learn to play in Marvel Snap is a Kazoo deck. These decks use simple strategies that rely on low-cost units. For example, the cards used in the deck require very little power to put in play, and the higher-cost cards can benefit or act as buffs for your other units in play.
Kazoo decks rely on cards like Blue Marvel, Captain America and Kazar. You'll also want to pick out Angela and Onslaught for easy cards to raise power on. The others will help to reward you for putting too many cards into play.
Here's the decklist for a popular Marvel SnapZone player's deck. KanyeBest's Kazoo deck is noted as a #1 Infinite Rank, and it contains cards that are relatively simple to obtain.
- Ant-Man
- Blade
- Elektra
- Nightcrawler
- Rocket Raccoon
- Angela
- Okoye
- Bishop
- Nakia
- Kazar
- Strong Guy
