Marvel Snap is currently one of the most popular card games. It is fast-paced and simplistic, yet intricate with its card design and stats. Players can either keep it simple or go deep to experiment with the variety of Marvel superhero decks to snatch a win from their opponents. Marvel Snap has an amazing collection of cards that can help players win in style.

One such card is of the character, Mystique, a female supervillain and antiheroine from the X-men series who is a new favorite in the game. The card costs three energy points but does zero damage. Newcomers to Marvel Snap may shrug it off by discarding her from the deck, but it is advisable not to take her lightly. Mystique makes up for her lack of damage points with her abilities.

Mystique’s abilities

Mystique appears powerless in terms of damage. However, she has a unique advantage since this card copies the ongoing ability of the previous one played in the battle. Cards with ongoing abilities are some of the most powerful ones in Marvel Snap. These cards sustain their skills throughout all rounds of the game.

Being able to duplicate that effect has the potential to deal massive ongoing damage to the opponent. Furthermore, Mystique’s low energy cost makes it perfect to have in the deck at all times. Players must precede this card with a suitable ongoing ability card first to get the best out of it.

Mystique belongs to Pool 3 and requires a collection level of over 486. Marvel Snap rewards players with cards based on these tiers, with Pool 1 being the starting point.

  • Base variant (Default variant)
  • Luca Claretti variant (Cost 1200 Gold)

When used with certain deck combinations, Mystique can almost cripple the opponent's score. One sure shot card players must have alongside her is Iron Man, which can double the power at its deployed spot. Playing Mystique after this move will duplicate the double power ability and bolster one location.

One can even have Moon Girl in the deck to add more lethality to the deck. This card immediately duplicates the set of cards on reveal. This could double the massive damage caused by Iron Man and Mystique, giving players the flexibility to have any other card in the deck.


Marvel Snap allows players to not only engage in battle but also gives them a chance to collect their favorite superhero cards without spending any real-world cash. Countless deck variations can be tested.

Players can also discover many underrated superheroes through the game. Many people play it as a card collection game without bothering much about the battles.

Marvel Snap continues to receive constant updates to keep the game fresh. This also leads to changes in the stats, buffs, and minor tweaks in the interplay of the cards. The community is proactive in sharing deck combinations so that players have a clear idea of each card's possible strengths and weaknesses.
