Marvel Snap's Top Peni Parker Decks

Marvel Snap

Peni Parker, the latest Marvel Rivals themed card in Marvel Snap, arrives after Galacta and Luna Snow, drawing inspiration from the acclaimed Spider-Verse films. Similar to Luna Snow, Peni Parker is a ramp card, but with a unique twist.

Understanding Peni Parker in Marvel Snap

Peni Parker costs 2 energy and boasts 3 power. Her ability is: On Reveal: Add SP//dr to your hand. When this merges, you get +1 Energy next turn.

SP//dr, a 3-cost, 3-power card, has the ability: On Reveal: Merge with one of your cards here. You can move that card next turn.

This card combination can be initially confusing. Essentially, Peni Parker adds SP//dr to your hand, allowing you to reposition a card on the board. Crucially, merging any card with Peni Parker grants you +1 energy for your next turn. This isn't limited to SP//dr; cards like Hulk Buster and Agony also trigger this effect.

The extra move provided by SP//dr functions only on the turn after merging and is a one-time effect.

Top Peni Parker Decks in Marvel Snap

Mastering Peni Parker requires practice. While the 5-energy cost for the merge and extra energy is substantial, strategic synergies exist, particularly with Wiccan. Consider these deck examples:

Deck 1 (Wiccan Synergy): Quicksilver, Fenris Wolf, Hawkeye, Kate Bishop, Peni Parker, Quake, Negasonic Teenage Warhead, Red Guardian, Gladiator, Shang-Chi, Wiccan, Gorr the God Butcher, Alioth. This deck, while expensive, utilizes key Series 5 cards (Hawkeye, Kate Bishop, Wiccan, Gorr, Alioth) for optimal performance. Other cards can be substituted based on your collection and meta. The strategy centers on playing Quicksilver, followed by a 2-cost card (ideally Hawkeye or Peni Parker), to set up Wiccan's effect.

Deck 2 (Scream Move Strategy): Agony, Kingpin, Kraven, Peni Parker, Scream, Juggernaut, Polaris, Spider-Man (Miles Morales), Spider-Man (Cannonball), Alioth, Magneto. This deck leverages the Scream move archetype, enhanced by Peni Parker's energy boost and SP//dr's movement capabilities. Key Series 5 cards include Scream, Cannonball, and Alioth, although substitutions might be possible. This deck requires skillful manipulation of cards on the board, anticipating opponent moves.

Is Peni Parker Worth the Investment?

Currently, Peni Parker's value is questionable. While a generally strong card, her impact might not justify the investment of Collector's Tokens or Spotlight Cache Keys in the current Marvel Snap meta. Playing Peni Parker on turn 2 and SP//dr on turn 3 may not always be the most impactful strategy compared to other powerful cards. However, her potential will likely increase as the game evolves.
