Marvel Snap's Potent Bullseye Decks Emerge
Mastering Marvel Snap's Bullseye: Deck Strategies and Value Assessment
Bullseye, a recently introduced Marvel Snap card, has undergone several iterations before its final release in the Dark Avengers season. This guide explores optimal Bullseye deck builds and assesses his worth in the current meta.
Bullseye's Mechanics:
Bullseye is a 3-cost, 3-power card with the ability: "Activate: Discard all 1-cost or less cards from your hand. Afflict that many different enemy cards with -2 Power." Crucially, the effect targets different enemy cards, limiting its impact on single high-power units. His effectiveness hinges on playing him before the final turn and having low-cost cards to discard. Synergies exist with cards like X-23 and Hawkeye Kate Bishop, but his utility diminishes significantly on turn 6.
Top Bullseye Decks:
Bullseye's optimal placement is within existing discard archetypes, rather than forming the core of a dedicated deck. Two prominent examples are presented:
Discard Deck (Standard):
This deck integrates Bullseye into a classic discard strategy:
- Scorn
- X-23
- Blade
- Morbius
- Hawkeye Kate Bishop
- Swarm
- Colleen Wing
- Bullseye
- Dracula
- Proxima Midnight
- MODOK
- Apocalypse
Key Series 5 cards (Scorn, Hawkeye Kate Bishop, Proxima Midnight) are integral, although Hawkeye Kate Bishop could be substituted with a card like Gambit. The strategy involves using Bullseye to debuff the opponent's board, leveraging discounted Swarms and other discarded cards for maximum impact. Dracula and Apocalypse provide late-game power.
Hazmat Ajax Deck (Alternative):
For players with a robust collection, Bullseye can enhance the Hazmat Ajax archetype:
- Silver Sable
- Nebula
- Hydra Bob
- Hazmat
- Hawkeye Kate Bishop
- US Agent
- Luke Cage
- Bullseye
- Rocket Raccoon and Groot
- Anti-Venom
- Man-Thing
- Ajax
This high-cost deck features several Series 5 cards (Silver Sable, Hydra Bob, Hawkeye Kate Bishop, US Agent, Rocket Raccoon and Groot, Anti-Venom, Ajax). Hydra Bob might be replaceable with a different 1-cost card. Bullseye complements Hazmat, providing additional debuff potential and synergizing with other cards to bolster Ajax's power.
Is Bullseye Worth the Investment?
Bullseye's value is subjective and depends on your existing collection and playstyle. If you're not a fan of discard or affliction decks, his niche application may not justify spending Spotlight Cache Keys or Collector's Tokens. His limited utility outside these archetypes makes him a less compelling choice compared to cards like Moonstone or Aries, which offer broader synergy potential.
