Here’s how these budget cards synergize:

  • Moon Girl doubles the cards in hand to buff Devil Dinosaur.
  • Sentinel, Agent 13, and White Queen add cards to hand to maximize Dino’s Power.
  • Iron Man and Klaw serve as support cards to boost losing locations.
  • Cosmo is the defense utility.
  • America Chavez and Spectrum are win conditions.

Rocket Racoon, Iron Man, and Klaw are flex cards. Players can replace them with other budget options such as Armor, Cable, Shang-Chi, and The Collector.

When building a deck with common cards, prioritize synergies. Look for surefire combos—like Devil Dinosaur and Moon Girl—guaranteed to grant maximum Power.

Also, think in archetypes. Marvel Snap cards have unique effects that all fall into basic categories, such as movement, discard, destroy, and junk. Recruit cards with matching or complementing archetypes for better pulls and drops.

Building budget decks is more feasible when Pool Two cards are unlocked. To get them, reach Collection Level 474. Farm Credits and Boosters to upgrade current cards and obtain new characters faster.

In Series One, the ideal budget cards are Devil Dinosaur, Blue Marvel, and Iron Man. But players could also benefit from unlocking Carnage, Nightcrawler, Ka-Zar, and Jessica Jones. In Series Two, the meta cards are Shang-Chi, Killmonger, and Sunspot. However, Morbius, Scorpion, and The Infinaut are also reliable allies.
