To counter him, players have to use strategies to ensure that they gain control of the board.
In this article, we have curated a list of the five Marvel Snap Blob counter decks, highlighting their synergies and strategies for effectively countering Blob.

List of the five best Marvel Snap Blob counter decks
1) Power reset
- Iceman (Cost 1/Power 2)
- Scarlet Witch (Cost 2/Power 3)
- Armor (Cost 2/Power 3)
- Shadow King (Cost 2/Power 2)
- Luke Cage (Cost 3/Power 3)
- Cosmo (Cost 3/Power 3)
- Polaris (Cost 3/Power 5)
- Spider-Man (Cost 3/Power 4)
- Enchantress (Cost 4/Power 5)
- Shang-Chi (Cost 4/Power 3)
- Iron Man (Cost 5/Power 0)
- Devil Dinosaur (Cost 5/Power 3)
Shadow King can reset the power of all cards in a lane, countering Blob directly, and Enchantress removes ongoing effects of cards that synergize well with Blob. Luke Cage keeps your cards safe from negative impact, thus keeping your low-powered cards relevant. The strategy of using Shadow King properly is that all the buffs of Blob will be canceled and you’ll have a powerful board.
2) Resource blocking
- Korg (Cost 1/Power 2)
- America Chavez (Cost 1/Power 2)
- Yondu (Cost 1/Power 2)
- Goose (Cost 2/Power 2)
- Maximus (Cost 2/Power 6)
- Rogue (Cost 3/Power 2)
- Killmonger (Cost 3/Power 3)
- Green Goblin (Cost 3/Power -3)
- Leech (Cost 4/Power 4)
- Doctor Octopus (Cost 4/Power 8)
- Hobgoblin (Cost 5/Power -8)
- Magneto (Cost 6/Power 12)
Leech removes text from all 6-cost cards in the opponent's hand thus nullifying Blob entirely. Rogue can steal ongoing effects that might be helpful to your opponent, and Killmonger eliminates 1-cost cards, which can be used to create various Blob’s big plays. This way you deny the opponent to control any locations and simultaneously counter Blob.

3) High-power
- Sunspot (Cost 1/Power 0)
- Nightcrawler (Cost 1/Power 2)
- Armor (Cost 2/Power 3)
- Electro (Cost 3/Power 2)
- Wave (Cost 3/Power 5)
- Jubilee (Cost 4/Power 1)
- White Tiger (Cost 5/Power 1)
- Sandman (Cost 5/Power 7)
- Vision (Cost 5/Power 8)
- Doctor Doom (Cost 6/Power 6)
- Magneto (Cost 6/Power 12)
- Hulk (Cost 6/Power 12)
Electro and Wave manage your energy cost by making you play cards such as high-power cards like Hulk in mid-game. Also minimizes the cost of high-impact cards to make a statement at the end. Doctor Doom extends power to areas, so you can keep control of the board even if one lane is in danger of Blob.
4) Daredevil swarm
- Nightcrawler (Cost 1/Power 2)
- Sunspot (Cost 1/Power 0)
- Daredevil (Cost 2/Power 2)
- Green Goblin (Cost 3/Power -3)
- Juggernaut (Cost 3/Power 3)
- Spider-Man (Cost 3/Power 4)
- Storm (Cost 4/Power 5)
- Professor X (Cost 5/Power 2)
- Hobgoblin (Cost 5/Power -8)
- Destroyer (Cost 6/Power 14)
- Magneto (Cost 6/Power 12)
- Doctor Doom (Cost 6/Power 5)
Professor X can lock down a location completely while a Storm floods another location. Daredevil enables you to accurately use cards like Juggernaut and Hobgoblin to disrupt the enemy's late-game strategy. The idea is to deny Blob access to these locations and at the same time, force your opponent into positions where they cannot effectively utilize Blob, while you win other lanes.
5) Location lockdown
- Iceman (Cost 1/Power 2)
- Korg (Cost 1/Power 2)
- Angela (Cost 2/Power 3)
- Falcon (Cost 2/Power 3)
- Collector (Cost 2/Power 2)
- Beast (Cost 3/Power 5)
- Ironheart (Cost 3/Power 0)
- Mystique (Cost 3/Power 0)
- Bishop (Cost 3/Power 1)
- Absorbing Man (Cost 4/Power 4)
- Blue Marvel (Cost 5/Power 3)
- Doctor Doom (Cost 6/Power 5)
The goal is to return cheap cards such as Iceman and Korg to activate their abilities several times. Angela increases in power with every card played at her place, while Falcon lets you replay the played cards. This strategy lets you repeatedly disrupt your opponent’s plans by bouncing back key cards, enabling more plays and putting you in a strong position against Blob strategies.
