How Moonstone Works in Marvel Snap
Moonstone is a 4-cost, 6-power card with an ability that reads: “Ongoing: Has the Ongoing effects of your 1, 2, and 3-Cost cards here.”
This ability makes Moonstone an excellent fit with cards like Ant-Man, Quinjet, Ravonna Renslayer, and Patriot. When paired with Mystique, she can amplify powerful Ongoing effects from cards like Iron Man and Onslaught. However, be wary of Enchantress, who can nullify all Ongoing effects in a lane, unless you have Cosmo to counter her. Echo is another less common but significant counter to watch out for in combo-heavy Moonstone decks.

This deck includes no Series 5 cards other than Moonstone. The strategy involves playing Patriot with Mystique, followed by Ultron on the final turn to fill other lanes with 6-power Drones, potentially reaching 24 power total per lane. With Moonstone enhancing this combo, the power can double to 48 per lane. Ant-Man and Dazzler are great backups, while Iron Lad helps find key cards. Invisible Woman protects your key cards from direct counters, though watch out for Alioth.

- Alioth

This deck features Series 5 cards like Victoria Hand and Wiccan, with Copycat being replaceable by other 3-cost cards like Red Guardian, Rocket Raccoon, or Groot. The core strategy revolves around playing Devil Dinosaur on turn 5, copying it with Mystique, and using Agent Coulson to fill your hand. Victoria Hand amplifies this by boosting cards like Sentinels and arrows from Hawkeye and Kate Bishop. With Moonstone, strategic placement is crucial to maximize her effect, especially when copying Victoria Hand or Devil Dinosaur. Cosmo is essential to counter cards like Enchantress that could disrupt your Moonstone strategy.

As new Ongoing cards are released, Moonstone's relevance in the meta will likely grow, leading to new, powerful deck compositions.
