Moonstone's Mechanics 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, notably those of Iron Man and Onslaught. However, she's vulnerable to Enchantress, which negates lane effects unless countered by Cosmo. Echo is another less common, but potent counter for combo-heavy Moonstone decks.

Top Moonstone Decks (Day One)

Moonstone excels in decks centered around low-cost Ongoing cards. Two prominent archetypes currently utilize her effectively: Patriot and Victoria Hand/Devil Dinosaur.

Patriot Deck:

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

This deck leverages the classic Patriot combo (Patriot into Mystique, then Ultron) amplified by Moonstone, potentially reaching 48 power without counters. Ant-Man and Dazzler provide additional synergy, while Iron Lad offers card draw. Invisible Woman protects key cards like Patriot and Mystique (except from 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 deck link here]

This deck utilizes the Devil Dinosaur strategy, enhanced by Victoria Hand's buffs and Mystique's duplication. Moonstone requires careful placement, anticipating Mystique's target (Devil Dinosaur or Victoria Hand). Cosmo counters Enchantress and Rogue. Copycat is flexible and can be replaced with other 3-cost cards like Red Guardian or Rocket/Groot.

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

Yes, Moonstone is a valuable addition, likely to remain meta-relevant for an extended period. Her synergy with Mystique opens up diverse deck-building possibilities, including integration into Zoo decks. The release of any new Ongoing card will likely prompt further exploration of its synergy with Moonstone.
