One of the most popular Thematic Decks in Marvel Snap is the Guardians of the Galaxy Deck. There are two variants of the deck, and both have all 7 members of the Guardians, but one is updated according to the New Addition in Thor: Love and Thunder.
Marvel Snap is a very well-thought-out game, so all the Guardians have similar abilities that go well together. Their team synergy is as good as the movies, and the Guardians will help you Rise through the leaderboard ranks.
Key Takeaways
- Guardians Deck is the most overpowered and useful Thematic Deck in Marvel Snap.
- All the Guardians have similar abilities that activate if you guess where your opponent is going to play his cards.
- Odin is one of the most powerful and essential cards in this deck and really makes the deck unstoppable.
- Daredevil is also important in the Deck and sets up your turn 5 play with Gamora.
- Learn the Strategies and abilities so you can use the Deck to its full potential.
The cards in the Guardians Deck have great synergy almost like the game wants you to play them together. All the cards have on-reveal abilities which are almost the same, however, have slight differences in cost and making some cards better than others.
Playing the Guardians Deck is fun and keeps you on your toes; it’s a lot like betting. The abilities of all the Guardians activate when your opponent plays a card in the same location you are playing one of the Guardians. Predicting the opponent’s play will boost your Guardian’s power or even gain you an extra enemy card.
Running the guardians will require you to make an on-reveal deck and pair them up with other cards that complement their abilities. Cards like Daredevil and Odin that help you predict the enemy or activate your abilities twice are really useful in the deck.

Roles Of Each Character
Now that we have our Guardians, it’s very important to understand the role each character plays in the team. Without knowing what they do and how to play them, it’s going to be very hard to use the full potential of the Guardians. Moreover, understanding what each character does will help you come up with more strategies that will work with different locations.
So here’s what each Character’s role is in the team.
Nebula

Mantis

The Ability comes in handy, and she is a great pick for the team. She can be unlocked in pool one and makes a good starter card in many decks.
Rocket

Star-Lord

Groot

Drax

Gamora

Daredevil

Storm

Juggernaut

Spider-man

America Chavez

Gameplay For Guardians Deck
After learning all the Guardians and their supporting cards, you can finally use their full powers to obliterate your foes. Coming up with strategies is an important element of the game, and you need a plan before you step on the battlefield. If you are considering the Guardian’s power, then the best strategy will be to limit your enemy’s locations and know where they will go.
Let’s take it from the start and figure out all you need to do to gain victory easily. So let’s talk about the ideal plan for the Guardians Deck.
You have a few turn-one cards, and if you’re not unlucky, at least one of these cards will pop up in your starting hand. Playing nebula, mantis or rocket is a great start. Most people go for the left location if it doesn’t have a debuff. So going left gives you at least an 80 percent chance of activating your ability. The best card will be Rocket if you want to overpower the enemy.
Now that we have our 4-power 1-cost card we have a big lead and the pressure is on the enemy. For the next turn, you will want to play Daredevil with Rocket. Playing Daredevil sets up your turn 5 Gamora play and reinforces your position.
On turns 3 and 4 you have your choice to either block the enemy’s location or play a guardian and you can play Storm on a new location which will shut it down after the next turn forcing the enemy to play their next turn.
Additionally, on turn 4, you combo her with Drax knowing the enemy will commit to the location and get an easy plus 4. Playing these two together gives you a high chance of winning this location.
Turn 5 is going to feel like cheating, being able to see exactly what the enemy will do gives you a huge advantage, and you can’t let it go to waste. So you play Gamora on the location the enemy played on and gain a 12-power card on turn 5.
Now you can play America Chavez on any location you feel like you will easily win and secure the victory. Don’t forget to snap cause this strategy might force your foe to retreat.
Asgardians Of The Galaxy Deck

Abilities
Here are the abilities of Thor and Odin and what makes them so essential to the team
- Thor: On Reveal: Shuffle Mjölnir into your deck.
- Odin: On Reveal: Activate the On Reveal abilities of your other cards at this location.
Roles Of Asgardians Explained
The Asgardians make the team incredible but knowing what role they play is crucial. Without understanding how and when to play them, you won’t be able to get the most out of their abilities. So here’s the role of each Asgardians in the deck.
Thor

Odin

Gameplay For The Asgardians Deck
With new Asgardians added the gameplay has a few changes but for the better. A few of the moves will be the same but with a few changes to turns 4 and 6.
Now you will play the God of Thunder at turn four and play him with Rocket and Daredevil. Playing with Rocket will mean giving up the middle, but this gives you the highest chance of winning. After that, you play to the right, and if you get Mjolnir, you play it with Gamora too.
And for the final blow, you play Odin with Gamora and Mjolnir boosting both Thor and Gamora’s power and confirming the victory. It will be a challenge for any opponent to counter that.
Final Words
After learning and understanding both decks, you can play a few variations of it and maybe add Odin to the Guardians deck until you unlock Thor. Moreover, you can make your own strategies and add and remove cards as you wish.
The Asgardians of the Galaxy deck is one of the best on-reveal Decks in Marvel Snap. Being a thematic, it’s one of the strongest and better than a lot of on-reveal decks. If you have trouble unlocking Thor or Spider-man, you can replace them with White Tiger. So, will you use this deck to Guard your Rank?
