Bullseye, the timeless Marvel villain, might be a bit out of date, but he's undeniably a classic comic book baddie. He's one of those guys in a ridiculous costume, acting completely out of character, and yet, utterly captivating. He's the next big thing in your comic book collection.

Well, perhaps not. But what *does* he do?
Bullseye's Abilities
Bullseye, a sadistic murderer, is a psychopath with a ruthless focus. His real name remains unknown, though possibilities include Benjamin Poindexter or Lester. Like Hawkeye, he's "human"—his skills are natural talent, not superpowers. This "peak human" status is incredibly versatile. He can kill with anything: a throwing knife, a pen, a paperclip, or his signature razor playing cards.
He's a hired mercenary with an exceptional danger-to-costume ratio. He's killed throughout the Marvel universe, famously taking down Elektra. In the Dark Avengers, he impersonated Hawkeye, continuing his deadly spree. His success stems from a combination of intelligence, turning murder into a business, and unparalleled skill.
Bullseye in SNAP
So, what does he *do* in Marvel Snap? He throws things! Anything. With incredible skill. In the game, he uses your weakest cards (1-Cost or less) to attack your opponent's cards, reducing their Power by -2. Each card hits a different target, perfectly representing his aim. His "Activate" ability lets you discard your hand at the optimal moment for maximum impact.
This makes him a perfect fit for Discard synergies like Scorn or Swarm. These archetypes ensure you have cards to discard when activating Bullseye. While Daken only provides one target, there's still potential for additional targeting. Bullseye becomes another controlled discard outlet, boosting cards like Morbius or Miek.
However, Bullseye has weaknesses. Luke Cage renders him nearly useless, and Red Guardian can attack him from a different angle if you lose priority. Careful planning is essential.
Bullseye Decks
Discard decks are the obvious synergy. His ability works perfectly with Scorn and Swarm. A Swarm-focused deck might include Collector, Victoria Hand, and Moonstone, maximizing Bullseye's potential. Gambit also adds a powerful effect and thematic consistency.
Another approach uses Daken's doubling effect. Bullseye provides control and redundancy, allowing you to activate him at the end of your turn to buff multiple Dakens and discard multiple Shards. This is a high-risk, high-reward strategy.
Verdict
Bullseye's "Activate" ability requires careful deck building. His effect is limited, demanding precise planning. However, his flashy abilities and synergy with Swarm and Scorn make him a valuable addition to the right deck.
