Should You Grind Sanctum Showdown for Gorgon, Laufey & Uncle Ben?
How Gorgon Works in Marvel Snap
Gorgon, a 2-cost, 3-power card, has an Ongoing ability: “Your opponent’s cards that didn’t start in their deck cost 1 more (maximum 6).” This directly counters Arishem decks and impacts strategies relying on generated cards like Discard or Devil Dinosaur variants. However, effects like Mobius M. Mobius, Rogue, or Enchantress can negate Gorgon's ability.
How Laufey Works in Marvel Snap
Laufey is a 4-cost, 5-power card with the ability: “On Reveal: Steal 1 Power from each other card here.” With four cards in a location, Laufey effectively becomes a 13-power card. Similar to Spider-Woman but potentially stronger, Laufey synergizes well with Zabu, enabling discounts and combinations with cards like Diamondback and Ajax.
How Uncle Ben Works in Marvel Snap
Uncle Ben, a 1-cost, 2-power card, has the ability: “When this card is destroyed, replace it with Spider-Man.” This creates synergy with Destroy effects from cards like Carnage, Venom, and Lady Deathstrike, acting as a strong alternative to Bucky Barnes.

While not game-changers, these cards offer unique strategic options. Laufey, in particular, shines in specific deck builds.
Gorgon Deck:
Ant-Man, Ravonna Renslayer, Gorgon, Sam Wilson, Captain America, Mystique, Mister Fantastic, Luke Cage, Captain America, Moonstone, Anti-Venom (or Iron Lad), Iron Man, Spectrum. (Copy this list from Untapped.)
Series 5 cards: Moonstone, Anti-Venom (replace with Iron Lad if needed). This deck utilizes Ongoing effects with Moonstone and discounted cards like Iron Man and Mystique for powerful late-game plays. Gorgon provides consistent disruption.
Laufey Deck (Toxic Ajax):

Series 5 cards: U.S. Agent, Diamondback, Red Guardian, Malekith, Anti-Venom, Ajax. This deck focuses on dominating locations with Ajax and supporting cards. Laufey's power steal further amplifies this strategy. Consider substituting Red Guardian for Rocket Raccoon and Groot (also Series 5).
Uncle Ben Deck:
The Hood, Uncle Ben, Yondu, Cable, Iron Patriot, Killmonger, Baron Zemo, Gladiator, Shang-Chi, Misery, Lady Deathstrike, Death. (Copy this list from Untapped.)

Acquiring all three cards requires 3600 Charms, a significant investment. Laufey offers the most impactful addition to specific decks. Consider prioritizing acquiring Series 4 and 5 cards instead, unless you're dedicated to specific affliction-based strategies.
