Best Agamotto Decks in Marvel Snap

*Marvel Snap* is taking players on a thrilling journey back in time with the Prehistoric Avengers season. The spotlight of this season is on Agamotto, an ancient sorcerer linked to Doctor Strange, who is set to be the Season Pass card and a formidable addition to your deck. Here’s a breakdown of the best Agamotto decks to dominate in *Marvel Snap*.

How Agamotto Works in Marvel Snap

Agamotto is a 5-cost card with a powerful 10-Power rating. At the start of the game, Agamotto shuffles 4 Ancient Arcana into your deck, each with unique effects:

  • Temporal Manipulation: A 1-cost card that reads "On Reveal: Give Agamotto +3 Power. Put him into your hand if he’s not in play. (Banish this.)"
  • Wombs of Watoomb: A 2-cost card with "On Reveal: Afflict an enemy card here with -5 Power and move it right. (Banish this.)"
  • Bolts of Balthakk: A 3-cost card that states "On Reveal: Next turn, you get +4 Energy. (Banish this.)"
  • Images of Ikonn: A 4-cost card with "On Reveal: Transform your other cards here into copies of the highest-Power one. (Banish this.)"

The Ancient Arcana are categorized as Skill cards due to their lack of Power cost and feature a new keyword, "Banish," indicating they are removed from play after their effect and do not enter the discard or destroy piles. This means they can't be reused, but they can be synergized with cards like Wong, though not with Odin or cards that manipulate discard or destroy mechanics such as King Etri or Ravonna Renslayer.

Agamotto's versatility makes it challenging to pin him to a single archetype, as he can dilute deck consistency, impacting specific gameplans.

While Agamotto is likely to carve out his own archetype eventually, he fits well into existing deck types like Wiccan Control and Push Scream. Let's dive into the Wiccan Control deck:

  • Quicksilver
  • Hydra Bob
  • Hawkeye
  • Kate Bishop
  • Iron Patriot
  • Sam Wilson
  • Captain America
  • Cassandra Nova
  • Rocket Raccoon and Groot
  • Copycat
  • Galacta
  • Wiccan
  • Agamotto
  • Alioth

This deck is on the pricier side, featuring multiple Series 5 cards. If you're not up to date with your season passes, you might struggle to assemble it. However, most cards can be substituted with similar-cost alternatives except for Galacta, Wiccan, and Agamotto. Bolts of Balthakk complements Wiccan by providing additional energy, allowing for a strong late-game even if Wiccan isn’t drawn by turn 4. The other Ancient Arcana enhance this deck's control elements, making it a formidable choice.

For fans of last month’s Scream Push deck, integrating Agamotto can bring new dynamics:

  • Hydra Bob
  • Scream
  • Iron Patriot
  • Kraven
  • Sam Wilson
  • Captain America
  • Spider-Man
  • Rocket Raccoon and Groot
  • Miles Morales
  • Spider-Man
  • Stegron
  • Cannonball
  • Agamotto

This deck also leans on Series 5 cards, but substitutes like Nightcrawler for Hydra Bob and Jeff for Iron Patriot can be used. Agamotto adds unpredictability and counters decks like those running Luke Cage and Shadow King, enhancing your strategic options.

Should You Buy the Prehistoric Avengers Season Pass?

Agamotto is poised to be a game-changer, akin to Thanos or Arishem. If he remains un-nerfed, he'll be a card that cycles through the meta, creating powerful synergies that can be frustrating yet exciting. At 9.99 USD, grabbing the Prehistoric Avengers Season Pass for Agamotto is a wise investment, especially if you anticipate his impact on future deck builds.

And there you have it—the best Agamotto decks in *Marvel Snap* to get you started on your journey through the Prehistoric Avengers season.
