How Moonstone Works in Marvel Snap

Moonstone is a 4-cost, 6-power card with the Ongoing effect: "Ongoing: Has the Ongoing effects of your 1, 2, and 3-Cost cards here." This makes her highly synergistic with cards like Ant-Man, Quinjet, Ravonna Renslayer, and Patriot. Combining her with Mystique allows for powerful duplication of Ongoing effects, including those of Iron Man and Onslaught. However, she's vulnerable to Enchantress, negating her effects unless countered by Cosmo. Echo is another, less common, counter to consider in combo-heavy decks.

Best Day One Moonstone Decks

Moonstone excels in decks featuring low-cost Ongoing cards. Two prominent examples are Patriot and Victoria Hand decks.

Patriot Deck:

Wasp, Ant-Man, Dazzler, Mister Sinister, Invisible Woman, Mystique, Patriot, Brood, Iron Lad, Moonstone, Blue Marvel, Ultron. [Untapped link removed]

This deck utilizes the classic Patriot strategy, amplified by Moonstone. The combination of Patriot, Mystique, and Ultron can generate significant power, further boosted by Moonstone's ability. Ant-Man and Dazzler provide additional synergy, while Iron Lad offers card draw. Invisible Woman protects key cards from counters (except Alioth).

Victoria Hand/Devil Dinosaur Deck:

Quicksilver, Hawkeye, Kate Bishop, Victoria Hand, Mystique, Cosmo, Agent Coulson, Copycat, Moonstone, Wiccan, Devil Dinosaur, Gorr the God Butcher, Alioth. [Untapped link removed]

This popular deck, incorporating Moonstone, requires strategic placement of Mystique and Moonstone to maximize the impact of Victoria Hand and Devil Dinosaur. Cosmo counters Enchantress and similar cards. Copycat is a flexible slot, replaceable with cards like Red Guardian or Rocket Raccoon & Groot.

Is Moonstone Worth Spotlight Cache Keys or Collector’s Tokens?

Moonstone is a worthwhile investment. Her synergy with Mystique opens numerous possibilities, and her impact extends beyond the initial decks presented here; she readily integrates into Zoo decks. Her Ongoing effect will continue to be relevant as new cards are released.
