How Moonstone Works in Marvel Snap
Moonstone is a 4-cost, 6-power card with an ability that reads: “Ongoing: Has the Ongoing effects of your 1, 2, and 3-Cost cards here.”
This card synergizes exceptionally well with low-cost Ongoing cards like Ant-Man, Quinjet, Ravonna Renslayer, and Patriot. When combined with Mystique, Moonstone can double the impact of powerful Ongoing abilities from cards like Iron Man and Onslaught. However, she's vulnerable to Enchantress, who can negate all card effects in a lane unless protected by Cosmo. Echo is another less common counter to be wary of, especially in combo-heavy Moonstone decks.
Best Day One Moonstone Decks
Moonstone seamlessly integrates into decks centered around low-cost Ongoing cards. Here are two prominent decks to consider:
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 into Mystique and then deploying Ultron on the final turn to fill other lanes with 6-power Drones, totaling 24 power. Adding Moonstone to this setup can potentially double that to 48 power, making it a formidable combination unless countered by Enchantress. Ant-Man and Dazzler enhance Moonstone's effects if the main combo fails, while Iron Lad helps find key cards. Invisible Woman protects your key cards from direct counters, except Alioth.

Victoria Hand and Devil Dinosaur Deck
- Quicksilver
- Hawkeye
- Kate Bishop
- Victoria Hand
- Mystique
- Cosmo
- Agent Coulson
- Copycat
- Moonstone
- Wiccan
- Devil Dinosaur
- Gorr the God Butcher
- Alioth
Click here to copy this list from Untapped.
This list includes Series 5 cards Victoria Hand and Wiccan, which are crucial, and Copycat, which can be swapped for other 3-cost cards like Red Guardian, Rocket Raccoon, or Groot. The strategy focuses on playing Devil Dinosaur on turn 5, copying its effect with Mystique, and using Agent Coulson to fill your hand. Victoria Hand amplifies this setup by boosting cards like Sentinels and Agent Coulson’s cards. Moonstone enhances this by requiring strategic placement; if copying Devil Dinosaur, play Moonstone preemptively in that lane. If copying Victoria Hand, ensure space for Moonstone to maximize the power of your Sentinels. Be cautious with Cosmo's placement to counter potential threats like Enchantress.
