How Gorgon Works in Marvel Snap

Gorgon, a 2-cost, 3-power card, has an Ongoing ability: “Your opponent’s cards that didn’t start in their deck cost 1 more (maximum 6).” This directly counters decks relying on generated cards, like Arishem, and impacts strategies using cards drawn into the hand, such as Discard decks. However, effects like Mobius M. Mobius or anti-Ongoing cards (Rogue, Enchantress) can negate Gorgon's power.

How Laufey Works in Marvel Snap

Laufey is a 4-cost, 5-power card with the ability: “On Reveal: Steal 1 Power from each other card here.” With four cards in a location, Laufey effectively becomes a 13-power card. Similar to Spider-Woman but potentially stronger, Laufey synergizes well with Zabu for cost reduction, pairing effectively with cards like Diamondback and Ajax.

How Uncle Ben Works in Marvel Snap

Uncle Ben, a 1-cost, 2-power card, has a unique ability: “When this card is destroyed, replace it with Spider-Man.” This creates synergy with Destroy effects (Carnage, Venom, Lady Deathstrike), offering an alternative to Bucky Barnes.

While not game-changers individually, these cards can enhance specific strategies. Laufey, in particular, offers significant potential.

Should You Grind Sanctum Showdown for Gorgon, Laufey & Uncle Ben?

Acquiring all three cards requires 3600 Charms, a significant investment. Laufey offers the most impactful addition to existing decks. Consider prioritizing acquiring Series 4 and 5 cards instead, unless you specifically need Laufey for an affliction deck. The Charm cost-benefit ratio may not justify obtaining Gorgon and Uncle Ben.
