The third series of cards in Marvel Snap comes with sixteen Ongoing-equipped superheroes, making an Ongoing deck a tempting option. But the question is, what’s the best Pool 3 Ongoing deck? This pro-level Marvel Snap guide has the answer.
Best Pool 3 Ongoing Deck in Marvel Snap
Among all the 16 Pool 3 cards with Ongoing abilities, Mystique, Wong, Cerebro, Invisible Woman, and Mojo are best for an Ongoing Deck. But to build the ultimate team, combine them with Spectrum, Destroyer, and Onslaught.

Mojo, Cerebro, and Invisible Woman in this deck help spread the Power to all three locations. Iron Man, Wong, Mystique, Spectrum, and Onslaught boost the Power. And Destroyer guarantees a late-game win. (Armor and Cosmo defuse Destroyer’s On Reveal ability to achieve that goal with no card destruction.)
Here's a list of Ongoing abilities in this deck:
- Mystique: Steals previous cards’ Ongoing ability.
- Wong: On Reveal happens twice in its presence.
- Iron Man: Doubles the total Power at the location.
- Cosmo: Stops On Reveals at the location.
- Cerebro: Gives 2 Power to the most powerful card.
- Invisible Woman: Hides the card on the spot.
- Onslaught: Doubles other Ongoing effects in the area.
- Mojo: Grants 6 Power if both players have 4 cards at this location.
- Mister Fantastic: Gives 2 Power to the neighboring locations.
Despite the below-average Power of Ongoing Pool 3 cards, they turn Pool 1 and Pool 2 cards into deadly dominators. But their effect is only viable toward the final rounds, fitting the Pool 3 Ongoing deck into strategic plays rather than aggressive ones.
Best Ongoing Strategy for Pool 3 Cards
Since Pool 3 Ongoing cards are best for boosting and stealing abilities, a good strategy is to go wide and cover all areas in the early-game turns. This will later allow high-cost cards to come into play and dominate the positions.
Ideally, the opponent should only find out about the actual Power of the Ongoing deck when it’s too late. So, the first few rounds are about preparing the ground for powerful late-game cards—in this case, Destroyer.
Other Variations of Pool 3 Ongoing Deck
An alternative Pool 3 Ongoing deck is the Ongoing-Destroyer. To build this deck, have Destroyer team up with Ant-Man, Armor, Colossus, Lizard, Mister Fantastic, Captain America, Cosmos, Warpath, Professor X, Klaw, and Spectrum.
This is a popular build reliant on Pool 2 cards’ passive abilities. But its destructiveness comes from Destroyer, a Series 3 villain.
For a mid-game-dominance Ongoing Pool 3 deck, combine Ant-Man, Ebony Maw, Goose, Mojo, Armor, Colossus, Lizard, Mister Fantastic, Cosmo, Wong, Iron Man, and Spectrum.
