Marvel SNAP: The Best Victoria Hand Deck

Mastering Marvel Snap's Victoria Hand: Two Powerful Deck Strategies

Marvel Snap's Victoria Hand, a 2-3 cost Ongoing card buffing cards generated in your hand, transcends typical card-generation archetypes. This guide explores two effective Victoria Hand decks: a card-generation deck and a discard deck, adapting her to the current metagame.

The Optimal Card-Generation Deck for Victoria Hand

This deck maximizes Victoria Hand's synergy with Devil Dinosaur. The core combo involves generating numerous cards in hand, leveraging Victoria's buff for a powerful Devil Dinosaur play.

Flexible Slots: Agent 13, Kate Bishop, and Frigga can be replaced with Iron Patriot, Mystique, or Speed depending on your preference and metagame.

Synergies:

• Victoria Hand's Buff: Boosts cards generated in your hand.
• Card Generators: Agent Coulson, Agent 13, Mirage, Frigga, Valentina, Kate Bishop, and Moon Girl generate cards. Frigga and Moon Girl also duplicate key cards.
• Quinjet's Discount: Reduces the cost of generated cards.
• The Collector's Growth: Strengthens with each generated card.
• Cosmo's Protection: Shields Devil Dinosaur and Victoria Hand from enemy attacks.
• Devil Dinosaur: The win condition, ideally played after Moon Girl or with many generated cards.

Important Note: Some players report Victoria Hand potentially buffing enemy-generated cards or cards that change sides. This may be a bug or an unclear mechanic; monitor this situation.

Effective Gameplay Strategies for Victoria Hand Decks

1. Energy Management: Balance card generation and energy spending. A full hand for Devil Dinosaur is crucial, but you need space to generate and utilize Victoria's effect. Skipping turns might be necessary.
2. Joker Cards: Use random generated cards strategically to mislead opponents.
3. Lane Protection: Protect your Victoria Hand and Devil Dinosaur lane (ideally played together) with Cosmo to counter tech cards like Enchantress.

Alternative: Victoria Hand in a Discard Deck

Victoria Hand surprisingly works well in discard decks. This deck leverages her buff with powerful discard cards.

Countering Victoria Hand

• Super Skrull: An excellent counter, particularly effective against both Victoria Hand and Doctor Doom 2099 decks.
• Shadow King: Removes Victoria's buffs from one lane.
• Enchantress: Negates all Ongoing effects, including Victoria Hand's.
• Valkyrie: Disrupts power distribution by moving cards to different lanes.

Is Victoria Hand Worth It?

Yes! Victoria Hand offers a strong return on investment, regardless of acquisition method. Her consistent buffs and adaptability to multiple archetypes make her a valuable addition to any player's collection. While reliant on some RNG, her power is undeniable.
