How Moonstone Works in Marvel Snap
Moonstone is a 4-cost, 6-power card with the ability: "Ongoing: Has the Ongoing effects of your 1, 2, and 3-Cost cards here."
Moonstone synergizes exceptionally well with cards like Ant-Man, Quinjet, Ravonna Renslayer, and Patriot. When paired with Mystique, she can double the effects of powerful Ongoing abilities from cards like Iron Man and Onslaught. However, she is vulnerable to Enchantress, who can negate all Ongoing effects in a lane unless you have Cosmo to protect her. Echo is another counter to watch out for, especially in combo-heavy Moonstone decks.

This deck contains no Series 5 cards other than Moonstone. The strategy involves playing Patriot into Mystique and then deploying Ultron on the final turn to fill other lanes with 6-power Drones, totaling 24 power. With Moonstone enhancing this setup, the power can double to 48. Ant-Man and Dazzler complement Moonstone if the main combo isn't achievable, while Iron Lad searches for key cards. Invisible Woman protects Patriot and Mystique from direct counters, except for Alioth.

Click here to copy this list from Untapped.
This deck features Series 5 cards like Victoria Hand and Wiccan, with Copycat being swappable for other 3-cost cards such as Red Guardian, Rocket Raccoon, or Groot. The classic Devil Dinosaur strategy involves playing him on turn 5, copying his effect with Mystique, and using Agent Coulson to fill your hand. Victoria Hand amplifies the power of cards like Hawkeye, Kate Bishop, and Sentinels. With Moonstone, you need to strategically place her to maximize her effect with either Devil Dinosaur or Victoria Hand. Be cautious with Cosmo's placement to counter potential threats like Rogue and Enchantress.
