Top Decks for Gorgon, Laufey & Uncle Ben in Marvel Snap

Author : Lucy Update : May 19,2025

Keeping up with the flood of new cards in *Marvel Snap* can be a challenge, but don't worry—*The Escapist* has got you covered. Let's dive into the best decks featuring Gorgon, Laufey, and Uncle Ben.

How Gorgon Works in Marvel Snap

Gorgon, a 2-cost, 3-power card, brings a strategic edge with its ability: "Ongoing: Your opponent’s cards that didn’t start in their deck cost 1 more. (maximum 6)." This ability is a direct counter to Arishem decks, but it also impacts strategies like Discard decks that rely on cards such as Swarm, Iron Patriot, and Devil Dinosaur. However, cards like Mobius M. Mobius or anti-Ongoing cards like Rogue and Enchantress can negate Gorgon's effect.

How Laufey Works in Marvel Snap

Laufey, a 4-cost, 5-power card, features an "On Reveal: Steal 1 Power from each other card here" ability. This can make Laufey effectively a 13-power card in locations with four cards, offering a powerful effect similar to Spider-Woman but enhanced by potential discounts from Zabu. It synergizes well with cards like Diamondback and Ajax in affliction-style decks.

How Uncle Ben Works in Marvel Snap

Uncle Ben, a 1-cost, 2-power card, has the ability: "When this card is destroyed, replace it with Spider-Man." Spider-Man, a 2-cost, 4-power card, then activates: "On Reveal: Move to another location and pull an enemy card from here to there." Uncle Ben synergizes with Destroy enablers like Carnage, Venom, and Lady Deathstrike, offering an alternative to Bucky Barnes.

Best Gorgon, Laufey, and Uncle Ben Decks in Marvel Snap

While these cards are considered "free," their impact varies, with Laufey being particularly notable in affliction decks. Let's explore their best deck placements:

Gorgon Deck:

Ant-Man
Ravonna Renslayer
Gorgon
Sam Wilson
Captain America
Mystique
Mister Fantastic
Luke Cage
Captain America
Moonstone
Anti-Venom (or Iron Lad)
Iron Man
Spectrum

This deck includes Series 5 cards like Moonstone and Anti-Venom, which can be replaced with Iron Lad if needed. Gorgon fits well into various decks, especially useful against Arishem lists in modes like Conquest, where he can be buffed by Spectrum and Moonstone.

The main win condition here is stacking Ongoing effects with Moonstone or getting discounted final turn plays with Iron Man and Mystique.

Laufey Deck (Toxic Ajax):

Zabu
Hazmat
Scorpion
US Agent
Luke Cage
Diamondback
Red Guardian
Laufey
Malekith
Anti-Venom
Man-Thing
Ajax

This deck is heavy on Series 5 cards but becomes a powerhouse once Luke Cage's popularity wanes. The strategy involves winning one lane with Ajax while using US Agent and Diamondback to dominate another. Anti-Venom and Malekith enhance the deck's effectiveness.

Uncle Ben Deck:

The Hood
Uncle Ben
Yondu
Cable
Iron Patriot
Killmonger
Baron Zemo
Gladiator
Shang-Chi
Misery
Lady Deathstrike
Death

Click here to copy this list from Untapped.

This deck includes Series 5 cards like Iron Patriot, Baron Zemo, and Misery. The goal is to disrupt your opponent's deck while discounting your Death and retriggering effects like The Hood and Yondu with Misery, countered by Killmonger, Shang-Chi, and Lady Deathstrike. Uncle Ben's destruction spawns Spider-Man, adding further disruption.

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

Rolling for one of these three cards in the new game mode costs 1200 Charms, totaling 3600 Charms for all three. Laufey stands out as the most valuable for affliction decks. However, it might be wiser to spend 2250 Charms on unowned Series 4 and 5 cards, depending on your collection, as you're less likely to pull many cards otherwise.

And those are the best Gorgon, Laufey, and Uncle Ben decks in Marvel Snap.
