How Moonstone Works in Marvel Snap
Moonstone is a 4-cost, 6-power card with the ability: “Ongoing: Has the Ongoing effects of your 1, 2, and 3-Cost cards here.”
She synergizes excellently with cards like Ant-Man, Quinjet, Ravonna Renslayer, and Patriot. Pairing her with Mystique allows her to double up on powerful Ongoing effects, such as those from Iron Man and Onslaught. However, she's vulnerable to Enchantress, who can negate all Ongoing effects in a lane unless countered by Cosmo. Keep an eye out for Echo as well, as it can disrupt combo-heavy Moonstone decks.
Best Day One Moonstone Decks
Moonstone fits seamlessly into decks centered around low-cost Ongoing cards. Here are two strong options:
Patriot Deck
- Wasp
- Ant-Man
- Dazzler
- Mister Sinister
- Invisible Woman
- Mystique
- Patriot
- Brood
- Iron Lad
- Moonstone
- Blue Marvel
- Ultron

This deck contains no Series 5 cards other than Moonstone. The strategy involves playing Patriot with Mystique and then deploying Ultron on the final turn to fill other lanes with 6-power Drones, boosting them to 24 power. Adding Moonstone to this combo can potentially double the power to 48, making it very hard to counter without Enchantress. Ant-Man and Dazzler complement Moonstone well, while Iron Lad helps find key cards. Invisible Woman protects Patriot and Mystique from direct counters, except for Alioth.
Victoria Hand with Devil Dinosaur Deck
- Quicksilver
- Hawkeye
- Kate Bishop
- Victoria Hand
- Mystique
- Cosmo
- Agent Coulson
- Copycat
- Moonstone
- Wiccan
- Devil Dinosaur
- Gorr the God Butcher
- Alioth

This deck includes Series 5 cards Victoria Hand and Wiccan, which are essential, and Copycat, which can be replaced with a suitable 3-cost card like Red Guardian or Rocket Raccoon. The classic Devil Dinosaur strategy involves playing the dinosaur on turn 5, copying the effect with Mystique, and using Agent Coulson to fill your hand. Victoria Hand enhances this strategy by boosting cards like Sentinels and Agent Coulson’s cards. With Moonstone, you need to anticipate where Mystique will land. If copying Devil Dinosaur, play Moonstone in that lane preemptively; if copying Victoria Hand, ensure there's space for Moonstone. A copied Victoria Hand with Moonstone can turn Sentinels into 9-power cards, making them formidable. Use Cosmo wisely to counter Enchantress and other threats.
