Marvel Snap: Best Pool 3 Decks

After massive OTA buffs and nerfs in the past few seasons of Marvel Snap, Series 3 looks stronger and more balanced than ever. With OP cards like Hela, Magneto, and Arnim Zola dominating the third pool, now is the best time to assemble a team of undefeatable Series-3 heroes and villains. The following guide introduces some of the classic lineups of CL 486+ as well as up-and-coming META decks to steal Cubes.

Hela has been dominating the metagame in the past few seasons of Marvel Snap. If you want to make the most of her in Pool 3, use Hela in a Discard deck with the cards listed below:

For an all-Series-3 version of this deck with Hela, replace Corvus Glaive, Modok, and Skaar with Black Cat, Ghost Rider, and Apocalypse.

Best Overall Pool 3 Deck

Considering its viability and convenience, the Death/She-Hulk deck is the best Pool 3 deck in Marvel Snap. The lineup has three low-cost feeders: The Hood, Yondu, and Buck Barnes. It also benefits from three destroyers: Deathlok, Carnage, and Killmonger. But the power comes from Death and She-Hulk, supported by Wave, Aero, American Chavez, and Wolverine.

Death/She-Hulk Pool 3 deck has a win rate of 57.99%, which is impressive. The goal with this deck is to feed The Hood, Yondu, Bucker, and Wolverine to Carnage while reducing Death’s cost for a final-round comeback.

Best Pool 3 Move Deck

With the debut of Elsa Bloodstone, Series 3 can now benefit from an unpredictable Move deck. The best lineup for this archetype would be the following cards:

Best Pool 3 Ramp Deck

The best Pool 3 deck for ramping is the slow but steady Doctor Doom/Heimdall lineup. It consists of Sunspot, Odin, Aero, Captain Marvel, Leech, Electro, Wave, Ebony Maw, America Chavez, Okoye, and, of course, Doctor Doom and Heimdall.

Relying on Heimdall’s card-shifting abilities, the Pool 3 ramp deck aims to fool the opponent into playing for the wrong locations. Thanks to cards like Aero and Wave, the lineup allows manipulating the enemy and finishing them with an end-game Odin, Doctor Doom, and Captain Marvel combo.

Best Pool 3 Destroy Deck

For a consistent Destroy deck, pick Venom, Carnage, Deathlok, and Killmonger as the main destroyers. And feed them with Deadpool, Nova, Sabretooth, and Bucky Barnes. But have Aero and Leader support the team and finish the opponent with Death and She-Hulk.

The Pool 3 Destroy deck gets its power from three cards. Venom gets more potent after each destruction. Death gets a discount for each destroy. Finally, She-Hulk already starts the game with 10 Power.

Best Pool 3 Discard Deck

The best Pool 3 Discard deck is the Dracula-Apocalypse lineup. It has Colleen Wing, Hellcow, Gambit, and Lady Sif as primary destroyer cards. It also buffs Apocalypse, Swarm, Dracula, and Morbius. But the deck comes with an element of surprise, relying on the On Reveal abilities of Ghost Rider, Invisible Woman, Leech, and America Chavez.

As the deck’s title suggests, the primary objective is to double Apocalypse’s Power with each discard while passively adding to Dracula’s.

Best Pool 3 Ongoing Deck

Out of all Pool 3 cards with Ongoing abilities, Mystique, Wong, Cerebro, Invisible Woman, and Mojo make the best deck. They work best when combined with Spectrum, Onslaught, and Destroyer.

In this lineup, Iron Man, Wong, Mystique, Spectrum, and Onslaught boost the Power, and Mojo, Cerebro, and Invisible Woman help spread it. But they all prepare the board for Destroyer to come and guarantee a win — with the help of Armor and Cosmo.
