How Victoria Hand Works in Marvel Snap
--------------------------------------Victoria Hand is a 2-cost, 3-power card with an ability that reads: “Ongoing: Your cards created in your hand have +2 Power.” Her effect is akin to a Cerebro for cards generated in your hand, but it’s crucial to note that it does *not* apply to cards generated in your deck, so she won’t synergize with cards like Arishem.
Cards that work well with her include Maria Hill, Sentinel, Agent Coulson, and Iron Patriot. Be on the lookout for Rogues and Enchantresses during the initial weeks after her release, as they might try to steal or negate her effect. As a 2-cost Ongoing card, you can strategically play her later in the game.
Best Day One Victoria Hand Decks in Marvel Snap
-----------------------------------------------Victoria Hand complements the season pass card, Iron Patriot, which generates a 4, 5, or 6-cost card with a conditional -4 cost. They are likely to be seen together, potentially breathing new life into old Devil Dinosaur decks. Here's a deck list to consider:
- Maria Hill
- Quinjet
- Hydra Bob
- Hawkeye Kate Bishop
- Iron Patriot
- Sentinel
- Victoria Hand
- Mystique
- Agent Coulson
- Shang-Chi
- Wiccan
- Devil Dinosaur

This deck includes two Series 5 cards aside from Iron Patriot and Victoria Hand: Hydra Bob and Wiccan. You can replace Hydra Bob with a 1-cost card like Nebula, but Kate Bishop and Wiccan are essential. Victoria Hand synergizes exceptionally well with Sentinel, turning them into 2-cost, 5-power cards, or even 7-power with Mystique's copy ability. Adding Quinjet drops these Sentinels to 1-cost. Wiccan can provide an 8-power boost on the final turn, enabling plays like a boosted Devil Dinosaur and Sentinel.
If Wiccan doesn't trigger, you can aim to win another lane with Devil Dinosaur and Mystique for a spread of power. While not the strongest, it's a solid backup plan.

Some content creators have experimented with Discard-style lists focusing on Swarm and Helicarrier, but Victoria Hand might not fit perfectly. Instead, she pairs well with Arishem, even if her effect doesn't apply to deck-generated cards. Here's an alternative deck:
- Hawkeye Kate Bishop
- Sentinel
- Valentina
- Agent Coulson
- Doom 2099
- Galacta
- Daughter of Galactus
- Nick Fury
- Legion
- Doctor Doom
- Alioth
- Mockingbird
- Arishem

Despite Arishem's nerf, this deck thrives on random card generation, leveraging cards like Hawkeye Kate Bishop, Sentinel, Valentina, Agent Coulson, and Nick Fury, all of which benefit from Victoria Hand's effect. Arishem remains a strong meta deck, keeping opponents guessing.
Is Victoria Hand Worth Spotlight Cache Keys or Collector’s Tokens?
------------------------------------------------------------------If you enjoy hand-generation decks, Victoria Hand is a great addition, especially alongside Iron Patriot. Her powerful effect could see use in meta decks, but she isn't a must-have. Skipping her won't be a major loss down the line. However, with weaker cards slated for release later this month, investing in Victoria Hand might be a wise choice.
And those are the best Victoria Hand decks in *Marvel Snap*.
