Marvel Snap's Bullseye Decks Dominate Meta

Mastering Bullseye in Marvel Snap: Deck Strategies and Value Assessment

Bullseye, a recent addition to Marvel Snap, has undergone several iterations before his final release in the Dark Avengers season. This guide explores optimal Bullseye deck builds and assesses his value within the game's meta.

Understanding Bullseye's Mechanics

Bullseye is a 3-cost, 3-power card with the ability: "Activate: Discard all cards that cost 1 or less from your hand. Afflict that many different enemy cards with -2 Power." This makes him a potent addition to discard-centric decks. His effectiveness hinges on discarding low-cost cards (including those discounted by effects like Swarm) before turn 6. Crucially, the "-2 Power" effect applies to different enemy cards, limiting its impact on any single card.

Top-Tier Bullseye Decks

While Bullseye shines in discard decks, forcing an all-Bullseye strategy isn't optimal. Instead, integrating him into existing archetypes proves more effective.

Discard Deck (Classic Style):

This deck utilizes Bullseye to amplify the discard strategy's power. The key synergy lies in combining Bullseye's activation with cards like MODOK, maximizing the debuff potential.

• Cards: Scorn, X-23, Blade, Morbius, Hawkeye Kate Bishop, Swarm, Colleen Wing, Bullseye, Dracula, Proxima Midnight, MODOK, Apocalypse.

• Series 5 Cards: Scorn, Hawkeye Kate Bishop, Proxima Midnight (Hawkeye Kate Bishop is arguably replaceable).

• Strategy: The deck aims to deploy MODOK on turn 5, activate Bullseye to discard low-cost cards, and then unleash a wave of debuffs from Scorn, X-23, Blade, Hawkeye Kate Bishop, and discounted Swarms. Dracula then capitalizes on this setup.

Hazmat Ajax Deck (Alternative):

This deck offers a unique approach, using Bullseye as a supplementary debuff engine alongside Hazmat.

• Cards: Silver Sable, Nebula, Hydra Bob, Hazmat, Hawkeye Kate Bishop, U.S. Agent, Luke Cage, Bullseye, Rocket Raccoon and Groot, Anti-Venom, Man-Thing, Ajax.

• Series 5 Cards: Silver Sable, Hydra Bob, Hawkeye Kate Bishop, U.S. Agent, Rocket Raccoon and Groot, Anti-Venom, Ajax. (Hydra Bob is potentially replaceable.)

• Strategy: The deck's primary goal remains Hazmat control, with Bullseye providing additional debuff support through Silver Sable, Nebula, Hydra Bob, Hawkeye Kate Bishop, and Anti-Venom. This boosts Ajax's power, increasing the chance of winning a lane.

Is Bullseye Worth the Investment?

Bullseye's value depends heavily on your existing card pool and playstyle. If you're not a fan of discard or affliction decks, he might not be worth the Spotlight Cache Keys or Collector's Tokens. His niche application limits his overall impact compared to cards like Moonstone or Aries (which synergizes with Surtur).
