How Gorgon Works in Marvel Snap
Gorgon is a 2-cost, 3-power card with the ability: “Ongoing: Your opponent’s cards that didn’t start in their deck cost 1 more (maximum 6).” This directly counters Arishem decks and impacts strategies relying on cards drawn into the hand, like Discard decks. However, effects like Mobius M. Mobius or anti-Ongoing cards (Rogue, Enchantress) can negate Gorgon's power.
How Laufey Works in Marvel Snap
Laufey, a 4-cost, 5-power card, has the ability: “On Reveal: Steal 1 Power from each other card here.” With four cards in a location, Laufey becomes a potent 13-power card. Similar to Spider-Woman, but potentially stronger due to Zabu synergy with cards like Diamondback and Ajax.
How Uncle Ben Works in Marvel Snap
Uncle Ben (1-cost, 2-power) has the ability: “When this card is destroyed, replace it with Spider-Man.” This creates synergy with Destroy effects (Carnage, Venom, Lady Deathstrike), offering an alternative to Bucky Barnes.

While not game-changers, these cards can be effective additions. Laufey, in particular, shines in affliction-style Ajax decks.
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. (Copy this list from Untapped)
Note: Moonstone and Anti-Venom (or Iron Lad) are Series 5 cards. This deck focuses on stacking Ongoing effects with Moonstone or utilizing discounted Iron Man and Mystique.
Laufey Deck (Toxic Ajax):
Zabu, Hazmat, Scorpion, U.S. Agent, Luke Cage, Diamondback, Red Guardian, Laufey, Malekith, Anti-Venom, Man-Thing, Ajax. (Copy this list from Untapped)
Note: This deck features several Series 5 cards (U.S. Agent, Diamondback, Red Guardian, Malekith, Anti-Venom, Ajax). Red Guardian could be substituted. The strategy is to control one lane with Ajax while dominating another with cards like U.S. Agent and Diamondback.
Uncle Ben Deck:
The Hood, Uncle Ben, Yondu, Cable, Iron Patriot, Killmonger, Baron Zemo, Gladiator, Shang-Chi, Misery, Lady Deathstrike, Death. (Copy this list from Untapped)
Note: Iron Patriot, Baron Zemo, and Misery are Series 5 cards. Iron Patriot could be substituted. This deck aims to disrupt the opponent's deck while utilizing card destruction and synergies.
Should You Grind Sanctum Showdown for Gorgon, Laufey & Uncle Ben?
Acquiring all three cards requires 3600 Charms—a significant investment. Laufey offers the most value, especially for affliction deck users. Consider prioritizing Series 4 and 5 cards instead, unless you’re heavily invested in a specific strategy requiring these cards.
