Marvel Snap's Second Anniversary Brings Powerful New Doctor Doom Variant: Top Deck Strategies

Marvel Snap celebrates its second anniversary with the arrival of Doctor Doom 2099, a powerful new card. This guide explores optimal deck builds featuring this exciting addition.

Understanding Doctor Doom 2099

Doctor Doom 2099 is a 4-cost, 2-power card with a unique ability: After each turn where you play exactly one card, a DoomBot 2099 is added to a random location. These DoomBot 2099s (also 4-cost, 2-power) provide an ongoing +1 power buff to other DoomBots and Doctor Doom. This synergy means that playing one card per turn can generate significant power, potentially turning Doom 2099 into a 17-power card or more, especially with early plays or game extension tactics like Magik.

Weaknesses to Consider:

Two key weaknesses limit Doom 2099's effectiveness. First, the random placement of DoomBot 2099s can lead to unfavorable board states, potentially handing locations to your opponent. Second, Enchantress (recently buffed) completely negates the DoomBot 2099 power boost.

Top Doctor Doom 2099 Decks

Two primary deck archetypes effectively utilize Doctor Doom 2099: Spectrum-style Ongoing decks and Patriot-style decks.

Budget-Friendly Spectrum Ongoing Deck:

This deck features a low cost, with only Doom 2099 as a Series 5 card:

  • Ant-Man
  • Goose
  • Psylocke
  • Captain America
  • Cosmo
  • Electro
  • Doom 2099
  • Wong
  • Klaw
  • Doctor Doom
  • Spectrum
  • Onslaught

This deck offers flexibility. Aim for early Doom 2099 plays using Psylocke or Electro, maximizing power spread with Wong, Klaw, and Doctor Doom. Alternatively, focus on spreading power with Doctor Doom or utilizing Spectrum's buffs if early Doom 2099 placement fails. Cosmo is crucial for Enchantress protection.

Patriot-Style Deck:

Another budget-friendly option (only Doom 2099 is Series 5):

  • Ant-Man
  • Zabu
  • Dazzler
  • Mister Sinister
  • Patriot
  • Brood
  • Doom 2099
  • Super Skrull
  • Iron Lad
  • Blue Marvel
  • Doctor Doom
  • Spectrum

This deck utilizes the standard Patriot strategy, deploying early game cards like Mister Sinister and Brood before playing Doom 2099. Follow up with Blue Marvel and Doctor Doom or Spectrum. Zabu discounts 4-cost cards for early plays if Patriot fails. Strategic skipping of DoomBot 2099 spawns allows for two 3-cost cards on the final turn (e.g., Patriot and discounted Iron Lad). Super Skrull counters opposing Doom 2099 decks, but the deck remains vulnerable to Enchantress.

Is Doctor Doom 2099 Worth It?

Despite the relatively weak cards (Daken and Miek) included in the Spotlight Caches, Doctor Doom 2099's power and deck-building versatility make him a worthwhile acquisition. Use Collector's Tokens if available; he's predicted to be a meta staple unless nerfed.

Conclusion:

Doctor Doom 2099 is a significant addition to Marvel Snap, offering powerful strategic options. The decks outlined above provide excellent starting points for mastering this exciting new card. Remember to adapt your strategy based on your opponent's cards and the board state.
