Marvel Snap: Best Devil Dinosaur Deck

I spent around 100 hours playing and here are my recommendations for the best Devil Dinosaur deck!

Devil Dinosaur is a powerful card in Marvel Snap that you will get in Pool One. At first instance, he may look like a weak character with only three powers and five energy costs. However, his ability makes him powerful; he gets +2 power for each card in your hand; for example, if you have five cards in hand, he’ll get +10 power.

Furthermore, it’s an ongoing ability, meaning the power will increase as you progress in the match. So, considering how powerful Devil Dinosaur is, I will show you the best deck in Marvel Snap that mains Devil Dinosaur.

Key Takeaways
  • Devil Dinosaur is a super strong card in Marvel Snap that you can get in Pool One, he gets +2 power for each card you have in your hand.
  • Each card has its own ability; Ant-Man increases the power by three if three cards are present.
  • If an opponent plays a card on the same level spot as you, Mantis will draw a card from their deck.
  • Cable has the ability to receive the bottom card, and Sentinel gets you more Sentinels.

White Queen46Receives highest cost card's copy of your opponents hands
Devil Dinosaur30Get power increase +2 on every single card in your hand
Iron Man50Power is enhanced
Onslaught67Ongoing effects are instantly double than before
  • Why I Chose This: With the proper setup, you can take advantage of the enemy by using the cards at hand to defeat the enemy. 

The main focus is to get more cards in your hand from your deck & abilities in Marvel Snap, eventually winning the location through the Devil Dinosaur in the Marvel Snap. Two locations are guaranteed if everything goes right; the third location depends on how you play out your cards. The best strategy would be to put high-power cards in locations where your opponent is more focused. 

The pros and cons for the best Devil Dinosaur deck are listed as follows in my opinion: 

  • Cable’s ability is broken. 
  • Cosmo’s location security is amazing.
  • Antman’s card isn’t very useful. 

Ant-Man

Ant-Man’s ability to get +3 power is advantageous in some situations, where you can predict where your opponent will not focus more. Most players tend to not focus on unrevealed locations. However, you can save the card till some other turn. 

Mantis

She is just a filler. However, things change if you can predict where your opponent will play their card. A decent starter card, if you have a great sense of predictability. It is recommended to save this card, as it can grant you +2 power by Devil Dinosaur card. But if you can predict, where your opponent is going to play, just go for it.

Cable

As mentioned before, the main strategy is to get a good number of cards in your hands. Cable gets a card from the opponent’s deck, if it’s a good one: use it, if not: keep it. You either have no loss from Cable.

Sentinel

A great startup card. You can use it with Moon Girl. Secure a no-power location with both of them, if possible.

Captain America

C America

He is another filler card you can use in a no-power location to get more power. However, it depends more on the situation if you need to use that card knowing that your opponent will secure that location. Go for it! Things might change with different opponents.

Cosmo

He is another great card that can be used to secure a location further. Some On reveal cards are pretty good, like Jessica Jones, who gets +4 power if you don’t play at the same location, and she already has +4 power. Some cards like this threaten your location, but Cosmo can save it. However, Cosmo is a filler for Devil Dinosaur, don’t use it until needed.

The Punisher

Punisher is another filler card. There are lots of filler cards, but for a good reason. However, The Punisher is a good counter if your opponent has played all one to two power cards at a certain location. The win gets easy for you using The Punisher, as he can get +1 power for each opposing card.

Moon Girl

This is the most important card, Moon Girl. She synergizes very well with Devil Dinosaur as she doubles your hand. The more card you get, the more power Devil Dinosaur have. Moon Girl is an important part of the deck to get an easy win.

White Queen

Again, a filler. However, the White Queen can play an essential part if played right. With 4-cost and six power, some locations are winnable. The most important thing is her ability, she draws a card with high cost, and high-cost cards are usually the best. However, I recommend you not to play her till the end.

Devil Dinosaur

Here is my main card of the deck in Marvel Snap, Devil Dinosaur. Moon Girl’s double-hand buff, Devil Dinosaur, will get a good power buff. Moreover, in the last turn, you can play Devil Dinosaur again to secure your other location. Also, be careful using low-cost cards, as they’ll lower the Devil Dinosaur power if your hands get empty or lower in numbers.

Iron Man

Another overpowered card is Iron Man. You can use Iron Man at a location where your opponent is great in numbers. However, the same goes for your other Devil Dinosaur card. (It depends on the situation)

Onslaught

The same purpose as Iron Man and your other Devil Dinosaur card, a filler at most to buff Devil Dinosaur. However, you can use him and get +7 extra power and double your Devil Dinosaur card power through his ability, guaranteeing you an instant location win.

My Thoughts On The Devil Dinosaur Deck

In my experience, the Devil Dinosaur deck is one of the most reliable decks in Marvel Snap, and I still actively use it. It’s extremely easy to use, and you can fully utilize its ability even if you don’t get a specific card from your deck. You’ll always have backup cards in your hand, so unlike most in-game decks.

This deck shines in Turns 5 and 6, where you’re guaranteed to win at least 1 or 2 locations. You can use a combination of Devil Dinosaur and Onslaught, Devil Dinosaur and Iron Man, or even Iron Man and Onslaught to guarantee a win at a location. As such, you’ll have access to several options with ample room to even make strategic plays depending on the location’s own ability.

That’s it in my guide to the Best Devil Dinosaur Deck in Marvel Snap.
