Marvel Snap: The Best Knull Deck

The way Knull works is that he absorbs the Power of all destroyed cards. There is no limit on how many times he can do that, and reviving cards like Deadpool will still buff Knull after each destruction. Clearly enough, his ideal lineup would be one from the destroy archetype. But finding the perfect synergies might be confusing. To help with that, this Marvel Snap guide explains how to build the top META deck for Knull using standard and rare cards.

The Best Deck for Knull

As a destruction-benefiting card, Knull works best in a Nimrod-Death deck. Replicate this lineup by uniting Knull, Nimrod, and Death as powerhouses and complete the deck with Shuri, Deadpool, Carnage, Wolverine, Venom, X-23, Sabretooth, Forge, and Deathlok.

Below is a list of the card synergies:

• Knull steals the combined Power of destroyed cards (Deadpool, Carnage, Wolverine, X-23, Sabretooth, ad Nimrod).
• Death gets multiple discounts after each destruction.
• Venom, Deathlok, and Carnage serve as the main destroyers.
• Shuri and Forge buff either Deadpool or Nimrod for extra Power.

Budget Card Alternatives

Players who lack rare cards like X-23 could use budget replacements such as Killmonger, Yondu, and Nova. Thanks to his adaptive synergy, Knull seamlessly integrates into all standard destroy decks.

How to Play Knull

Knull is a passive buff card. Play him as a late-game powerhouse and the final win condition. Before dropping him, squeeze out as many destructions as possible, maxing him out before round five. When applicable, destroy X-23 on turn four so Knull can hit the board before Death.

Explore the ultimate combos for Knull:

• Shuri into Nimrod and Venom. This killer trio grants two 12-Power Nimrods and a 9-Power Venom.
• Shuri into Deadpool and Carnage. An early-game combination that could double Deadpool’s initial Power for a bigger destruction boost.
• Mass destruction followed by Death. Clearing an entire lane with Deathlok on turn four and doing the same with Venom on turn four drops the Cost of Death to two. This allows for a deadly turn-five move with a 12-Power Death before the final attack with Knull.

How to Counter Knull

When the opponent’s Knull-oriented strategy is exposed, Alioth is the best counterplay. However, if the buffed Knull is already on the board and has 10+ Power, Shang-Chi is the ultimate response. Since Knull is an Ongoing card, Enchantress is also a reliable counter. She removes his ability, bringing his Power to the base form.
