Best Victoria Hand Decks in Marvel Snap

Marvel Snap's Victoria Hand: Deck Strategies and Spotlight Cache Value

Despite the ongoing popularity of Pokémon TCG Pocket, Marvel Snap continues its robust card releases. This guide focuses on Victoria Hand, a new card released alongside the Iron Patriot season pass card. We'll explore optimal Victoria Hand deck builds and assess her value in the meta.

Victoria Hand's Mechanics

Victoria Hand is a 2-cost, 3-power card with the ongoing ability: “Your cards created in your hand have +2 Power.” This functions similarly to Cerebro, but crucially, only affects cards generated in your hand, not your deck. This means cards like Arishem won't benefit. Strong synergies exist with cards like Maria Hill, Sentinel, Agent Coulson, and Iron Patriot. Early on, be mindful of Rogues and Enchantresses attempting to counter her effect. Her 2-cost and Ongoing nature allows for strategic late-game deployment.

Top Victoria Hand Decks (Day One)

Victoria Hand's best synergy is arguably with Iron Patriot, the season pass card. Expect to see them together frequently. One effective strategy revives older Devil Dinosaur decks:

Deck 1: Devil Dinosaur Revival

• Maria Hill
• Quinjet
• Hydra Bob
• Hawkeye
• Kate Bishop
• Iron Patriot
• Sentinel
• Victoria Hand
• Mystique
• Agent Coulson
• Shang-Chi
• Wiccan
• Devil Dinosaur

Hydra Bob can be substituted with a comparable 1-cost card like Nebula. Kate Bishop and Wiccan are essential. This deck leverages Sentinel's power; with Victoria Hand's effect, generated Sentinels become 2-cost, 5-power cards, boosted to 7 with Mystique. Quinjet further amplifies this. Wiccan provides a powerful late-game boost, potentially combining with Devil Dinosaur, Victoria Hand, and a Sentinel. If Wiccan fails, focusing on Devil Dinosaur and Mystique in other lanes offers a fallback strategy.

Deck 2: Arishem Synergy

Another strategy integrates Victoria Hand with the often-reviled Arishem:

• Hawkeye
• Kate Bishop
• Sentinel
• Valentina
• Agent Coulson
• Doom 2099
• Galactus
• Daughter of Galactus
• Nick Fury
• Legion
• Doctor Doom
• Alioth
• Mockingbird
• Arishem

(Copyable list available from Untapped)

This deck utilizes Arishem's random generation, even despite his nerfs. Cards like Hawkeye, Kate Bishop, Sentinel, Valentina, Agent Coulson, and Nick Fury generate cards enhanced by Victoria Hand. While deck-generated cards don't benefit, the board presence remains potent. This deck maintains Arishem's unpredictable and disruptive nature.

Is Victoria Hand Worth the Investment?

Victoria Hand is a valuable addition for players enjoying hand-generation strategies, especially paired with Iron Patriot. Her powerful effect makes her a potentially meta-defining card, but not strictly essential. However, considering the relatively weaker cards slated for release later in the month, investing in Victoria Hand now might be a wiser choice.
