Okay, so I’ve been messing around with this “Marvel Snap” game lately, and let me tell you, it’s a wild ride. I’ve finally hit Pool 3 cards, and things have gotten, shall we say, interesting. I decided to try my hand at a discard deck, and boy, was it a learning experience.
First off, I started gathering all the discard-related cards I could find. You know, the usual suspects like Lady Sif, Sword Master, and Hell Cow. I even threw in Colleen Wing for those low-cost cards I want to get rid of. It felt pretty good to see them all together, like a little dysfunctional family ready to cause some chaos.
Then came the heavy hitters, the ones that really make a discard deck shine. I’m talking about Apocalypse, who just keeps coming back stronger every time he’s discarded, and Hela, who can bring back a whole army of discarded cards at the end. Yeah, it felt powerful just having them in my deck.
Building the deck was a bit of a puzzle. I had to balance the discarders with the cards I actually wanted to discard. It was like a weird dance of throwing away stuff to get stronger, but only throwing away the right stuff, you know?
I played a bunch of games, and let me tell you, it was a rollercoaster. Some games, I was discarding like a madman, and Apocalypse would grow to be a monster. Other games, I couldn’t draw a discarder to save my life, and my hand was clogged with cards I didn’t want to play. It was frustrating, but also kind of thrilling.
- Lady Sif was a star, always snipping away those big cards I didn’t want to play early.
- Sword Master and Hell Cow pulled their weight, although sometimes Hell Cow‘s random discards were a bit too random for my liking.
- Colleen Wing was surprisingly useful, clearing out those pesky 1-cost cards.
The real moment of truth came when I finally got to play Hela. Bringing back a bunch of powerful cards I had discarded throughout the game felt amazing. It was like a glorious comeback, snatching victory from the jaws of defeat. Or sometimes it wasn’t, because Hela decided to bring back a bunch of rocks instead. It happens.
All in all, building and playing this discard deck in Pool 3 was a wild experience. It’s definitely not a beginner-friendly deck, and it takes some practice to get the hang of it. But when it works, it really works. I’m still tweaking it, trying to find that perfect balance. It’s a process, but a fun one. I’ll keep you guys posted on my progress, maybe I’ll even share the full deck list once I’m happy with it. Stay tuned!
