How Gorgon Works in Marvel Snap

Gorgon (2-cost, 3-power) boasts the ability: “Ongoing: 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 that utilize cards drawn into the hand. However, effects like Mobius M. Mobius or Ongoing-negating cards (Rogue, Enchantress) can neutralize Gorgon's impact.

How Laufey Works in Marvel Snap

Laufey (4-cost, 5-power) has 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 and cards like Diamondback and Ajax.

How Uncle Ben Works in Marvel Snap

Uncle Ben (1-cost, 2-power) has a unique ability: “When this card is destroyed, replace it with Spider-Man.” This makes him a strong addition to Destroy-focused decks. His synergy with cards like Carnage, Venom, and Lady Deathstrike offers a powerful alternative to Bucky Barnes.

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

Acquiring all three cards requires a significant charm investment (3600). Laufey offers the most immediate value in affliction decks. Consider whether your existing collection warrants this investment, or if focusing on obtaining Series 4 and 5 cards through other means is more beneficial.
