Best Doom 2099 Decks in Marvel Snap

Marvel Snap's Second Anniversary Brings Powerful New Doctor Doom Variant: Top Deck Strategies

Marvel Snap continues to evolve, introducing new card variants to keep the meta fresh. This time, it's Doctor Doom's turn, with the arrival of his powerful 2099 variant. This guide explores optimal Doom 2099 deck builds for maximizing his potential.

Understanding Doom 2099's Mechanics

Doom 2099 is a 4-cost, 2-power card with a unique ability: After each turn where you play exactly one card, a DoomBot 2099 is added to a random location. These DoomBot 2099s (also 4-cost, 2-power) provide an ongoing +1 power buff to other DoomBots and Doctor Doom himself. This synergy extends even to regular Doctor Doom cards.

The strategic goal is to play one card per turn, maximizing DoomBot 2099 deployment. Early game Doom 2099 placement, or utilizing cards like Magik for extended turns, significantly amplifies his power. Ideally, Doom 2099 can function as a 17-power card (or more) with strategic play.

However, there are drawbacks. The random placement of DoomBots can hinder your strategy, and the recent Enchantress buff directly counters their power boost.

Top Tier Doom 2099 Decks

Doom 2099's one-card-per-turn requirement makes Spectrum-based Ongoing decks highly viable. Here are two exemplary builds:

Deck 1: Spectrum-focused Ongoing

• Ant-Man
• Goose
• Psylocke
• Captain America
• Cosmo
• Electro
• Doom 2099
• Wong
• Klaw
• Doctor Doom
• Spectrum
• Onslaught

This budget-friendly deck (only Doom 2099 is a Series 5 card) offers flexibility. Early game plays focus on getting Doom 2099 out quickly using Psylocke or Electro. From there, Wong, Klaw, and Doctor Doom synergize for powerful board control. Alternatively, if Doom 2099 isn't played early, the deck can pivot to a strategy centered around regular Doctor Doom and Spectrum's buffs. Cosmo is crucial for mitigating Enchantress's disruptive effect.

Deck 2: Patriot-style Synergy

• Ant-Man
• Zabu
• Dazzler
• Mister Sinister
• Patriot
• Brood
• Doom 2099
• Super Skrull
• Iron Lad
• Blue Marvel
• Doctor Doom
• Spectrum

Another cost-effective option (again, only Doom 2099 is Series 5), this deck utilizes the Patriot strategy. Early game plays with Mister Sinister and Brood set the stage for Doom 2099, followed by Blue Marvel and Doctor Doom or Spectrum for massive power boosts. Zabu provides cost reduction for early game plays if Patriot isn't played early. Note that this deck is vulnerable to Enchantress, but Super Skrull helps counter other Doom 2099 decks.

Is Doom 2099 Worth the Investment?

While the other Spotlight Cache cards (Daken and Miek) are less impactful, Doom 2099's power and deck-building versatility make him a worthwhile acquisition. Using Collector's Tokens is recommended if available. He's predicted to be a meta-defining card unless significant nerfs are implemented.

Conclusion

Doctor Doom 2099 is a game-changer in Marvel Snap. By mastering these deck strategies, you can harness his immense power and dominate the battlefield. Get ready to experience the next level of strategic depth in Marvel Snap!
