The Best Deck for Silk

In Marvel Snap’s metagame, Silk thrives in a movement deck with Vision and Alioth. Other cards to complete this setup are Kraven, Jeff!, Nightcrawler, Angela, Iron-Fist, Kitty Pryde, Human Torch, and Miles Morales.

This lineup works because the majority of its components are movement-benefiting cards. Take Kraven and Miles Morales, for example. One gets buffed per move, while the other gets discounted.

The synergies of this deck are as follows:

• Alioth can attack Silk’s lane, forcing her to move while destroying enemy cards there.
• Miles Morales Costs only one Energy when Silk moves. Players can also use Nightcrawler, Jeff!, and Human Torch to lower Miles’s Cost.
• Kraven gets buffed when cards like Silk move to his lane.
• Jeff! moves to any location with no restriction. He can be a good support card for Silk.
• Nightcrawler can be moved once per game. Just like Jeff the Baby Land Shark, Nightcrawler is also a movement support.
• Vision can move once per turn. This allows players to change strategies on the go and confuse the opponent.
• Kitty Pryde and Angela create a consistent synergy. Every time Kitty Pryde returns to the hand, she flies into Angela’s lane, giving her +1 Power.
• Human Torch and Iron Fist help get extra movement buff.

How to Play Silk

Silk should be incorporated into movement, control, and bounce archetypes. Players will make the most of this passive card when they spread the early-game Power across the board only to target two of them in the final round.

For instance, they can Alioth a lane, clear it up, and force Silk to move to the winning location. Or they can plan a surprise counterattack with moveable cards like Nightcrawler, Silk, Jeff!, and Vision. (They must stack them up in a lane and move them all to a weaker location on turn six or seven.)

How to Counter Silk

Silk has no Ongoing or On Reveal ability. Her movement is a skill that can be countered with cards like Professor X and Storm. Professor X stops other cards from joining his lane, and Storm locks down a lane, so Silk can’t fly there.
