Unleash Mighty Web-Slingers: Optimizing Peni Parker Decks

Peni Parker, the latest Marvel Rivals themed card in Marvel Snap, arrives after Galacta and Luna Snow. Familiar to fans of the Spider-Verse films, Peni Parker is a ramp card with a unique twist.

Peni Parker's Mechanics in Marvel Snap

Peni Parker (2 cost, 3 power) has the ability: "On Reveal: Add SP//dr to your hand. When this merges, you get +1 Energy next turn."

SP//dr (3 cost, 3 power) has the ability: "On Reveal: Merge with one of your cards here. You can move that card next turn."

Essentially, Peni Parker adds SP//dr, a movable card, to your hand. Merging any card with Peni Parker grants +1 energy for your next turn. This isn't limited to SP//dr; cards like Hulk Buster and Agony also trigger this effect. SP//dr's movement ability is only active the turn after merging.

Top Peni Parker Decks in Marvel Snap

Peni Parker's high energy cost (5 for the combined effect) requires strategic synergy. One effective deck utilizes Wiccan:

  • Wiccan Synergy Deck: Quicksilver, Fenris Wolf, Hawkeye, Kate Bishop, Peni Parker, Quake, Negasonic Teenage Warhead, Red Guardian, Gladiator, Shang-Chi, Wiccan, Gorr the God Butcher, Alioth. This deck's flexibility allows for substitutions based on your meta and collection. The core strategy involves playing Quicksilver and a 2-cost card (ideally Hawkeye Kate Bishop or Peni Parker) to enable Wiccan's effect.

Another deck incorporates Peni Parker into a Scream-style move deck:

  • Scream Move Deck: Agony, Kingpin, Kraven, Peni Parker, Scream, Juggernaut, Polaris, Spider-Man (Miles Morales), Spider-Man (Cannonball), Alioth, Magneto. This deck requires skillful manipulation of opponent's cards, leveraging Kraven and Scream to control lanes. Peni Parker's merge allows for playing both Alioth and Magneto in a single game.

Is Peni Parker Worth the Investment?

Currently, Peni Parker's value is debatable. While a generally strong card, she lacks the immediate impact of other top-tier cards in the current Marvel Snap meta. Her effectiveness will likely increase as the game evolves.
