Best Peni Parker Decks in Marvel Snap

Peni Parker, the latest Marvel Rivals themed card in Marvel Snap, arrives after Galacta and Luna Snow, bringing a unique twist to ramp strategies. Fans of the Spider-Verse films will recognize this character. Similar to Luna Snow, Peni Parker is a ramp card, but with added complexity.

Peni Parker's Mechanics in Marvel Snap

Peni Parker costs 2 energy and boasts 3 power. Her ability is: "On Reveal: Add SP//dr to your hand. When this merges, you get +1 Energy next turn."

SP//dr, a 3-cost, 3-power card, has the ability: "On Reveal: Merge with one of your cards here. You can move that card next turn."

This combination can be initially confusing. Essentially, Peni Parker adds a movable card (SP//dr) to your hand. Crucially, if any card merges with Peni Parker, you gain +1 energy for your next turn. This isn't limited to SP//dr; cards like Hulk Buster and Agony also trigger this bonus. The SP//dr movement ability is a one-time effect, active only on the turn after merging.

Top Peni Parker Decks in Marvel Snap

Mastering Peni Parker requires time and practice. The 5-energy cost for the merge and extra energy makes it expensive, but synergistic deck building is key. Here are examples:

Deck 1: Wiccan Synergy Deck

This deck features a high-cost curve, relying heavily on Series 5 cards like Hawkeye Kate Bishop, Wiccan, Gorr the God Butcher, and Alioth. Other cards can be substituted based on your collection and meta. The strategy centers on playing Quicksilver, followed by a 2-cost card (ideally Hawkeye Kate Bishop or Peni Parker) to set up Wiccan's effect. Peni Parker provides consistency and flexibility. This deck is reactive, requiring adaptation to your opponent's strategy.

Deck 2: Scream Move Deck

This deck incorporates Peni Parker into a Scream move-style deck. The extra energy and movement potential from Peni Parker and SP//dr aim to revitalize this previously dominant, but now slightly less effective, archetype. Key Series 5 cards include Scream, Cannonball, and Alioth (though Stegron could be a possible substitute). This deck requires advanced planning and prediction of your opponent's moves, using Kraven and Scream to control power across the board.

Is Peni Parker Worth the Investment?

Currently, Peni Parker may not be worth the immediate investment of Collector's Tokens or Spotlight Cache Keys. While a generally strong card, she doesn't currently stand out amongst other powerful options in Marvel Snap. Her effectiveness hinges on specific deck synergies and strategic play. However, her value may increase as the game evolves.
