Marvel Snaphas introduced its newest card in the Wakanda Forever season of November 2022, respectfullybeing Black Panther.The entire season pass is an excellent tier-system with many rewards and variant cards that look amazing. Black Panther is the game’s newest On Reveal card, and is one of the greatest On Reveal cards in the game.
Black Panther is a5-cost card with 4-power.His card has an On Reveal ability that simply doubles the card’s power, which is initially 4, making his power reach 8-power. The ability of his card makes him extremely viable for any deck, especially when paired withthose that can increase his powerbefore playing.
10Okoye
Okoye canonically works incredibly well with the king of Wakanda in a way that boosts Black Panther’s power while still in the player’s deck. Okoye is a 2-cost card with 2-power, and has the On Reveal ability togive every card in the player’s deck an additonal 1-power.

With Black Panther still in the player’s deck, his power goes up to 5-power, meaning that when he is played on a location, his power doubles into 10-power. In a way, Okoye gave Black Panther an additional 2-power. These two are a great combination.
9Nakia
Nakia is yet another card that works in a canonical way to Black Panther. Nakia is a3-cost cardwith only 1-power, but has the On Reveal ability that allows her togive the two leftmost cards in the player’s hand an extra 2-power.
With Black Panther being one of the two cards at the left of the player’s hand, his power could go up to 6-power, meaning that when he is played at a location, his power doubles into 12-power. For even greater benefits, the combination of Okoye, Nakia, and Black Panther could increase his power immensely.
8Forge
Forge is a pool 1 card in Marvel Snap that players can obtain fairly early inMarvel’scard game. Forge is a member of the X-Men team, and is agreat 2-cost cardthat has 1-power. Forge has the On Reveal ability togive the next card the player lays out an extra 2-power.
When used in combination with Black Panther, Forge will give Black Panther more power that adds up to 6-power, and when Black Panther is revealed, he doubles his power to 12-power. Forge is a great way to help Black Panther secure a location.
7Wong
Wong is one of thebest pool 3 cardsinMarvel Snap. The sorcerer is also one of the best 4-cost cards in the game, all due to his ability. Wong is a 4-cost card with 2-power, and has the Ongoing ability that states thatfriendly On Reveal cards activate their ability twice at his location.
That opens up a wide range of possibilities, but for Black Panther, that essentially means he doubles his power right after doubling his power. At minimum, this means that Black Panther will reach an incredible 16-power, which is enough to take a location himself.
6Odin
Odin is yet another pool 1 cardthat players would be able to obtain early on inMarvel Snap. This card is one of the best cards in its pool, and a wonderful 6-cost card. Odin is a 6-cost card with 8-power, and has an On Reveal ability that activates all other On Reveal abilities at his location. (Imagine the possibilities when paired with Wong).

In Black Panther’s case, Odin would be able to activate Black Panther’s ability once more, meaning that just like he did with Wong, he could double his power twice. If combined with Wong, the possibilities are incredible.
5Arnim Zola
The villainous Arnim Zola makes his way intoMarvel Snapas a great 6-cost card that players can obtain in pool 3 of the virtual card game. Arnim Zola is a 6-cost card with a whopping…0-power.
Fortunately for the player’s sake, Arnim Zola has the grand On Reveal ability todestroy a random friendly card at his location,and then proceed to add copies of that friendly card to the other locations. When Arnim Zola is played with Black Panther, the Wakandan king can add his doubling power to the other two locations.
4Shuri
KingT’Challa’s sister and princess of WakandahitsMarvel Snapwith an ability that was just made for Black Panther. Shuri is a pool 3 card that costs 4-energy and has 2-power, and has an On Reveal ability that states thatthe next card the player plays onto the table will have its power doubled.
With Black Panther in hand, the player can play Black Panther immediately after Shuri as he only costs one more energy. Then Black Panther will hit the table as an 8-power card, and then double his card into a 16-power card.
3Mister Negative
Mister Negative made a memorable appearance inMarvel’s Spider-Man, and now he makes yet another great appearance inMarvel Snap. This character definitely has one of the most unique abilities in the game.
Mister Negative is a 4-cost card with 4-power, and has the On Reveal abilitythat swaps the cost and power of all cards in the player’s deck.With Black Panther in the player’s deck, he would end up with 5-power and cost 4-energy. That means players can play his card as a 4-cost card and then double his power into 10-power rather than 8-power.
2Taskmaster
Taskmaster is another wonderful pool 3 card that players can obtain through the collection level system ofMarvel Snap. This villain card allows the character to take on an ability that matches his canonical powers. Taskmaster is a 5-cost card with 0-power, but has the On Reveal ability that states thatTaskmaster’s poweris equal to the power of the last card that the player played.
If Black Panther was played last, Taskmaster can have an initial minimum power of 8, which is wonderful. Assuming Black Panther has more power though, the two can quickly turn the tides of a game.
1Absorbing Man
Absorbing Man isn’t a card too many players inMarvel Snapseem to utilize, making the card pretty underappreciated. Absorbing Man is a pool 3 card that has 3-power and costs 4-energy.
Absorbing Man also has an On Reveal ability that statesif the last card the player played had an On Reveal ability, then Absorbing Man copies it.With Black Panther being the last card played, Absorbing Man can copy that card’s ability. This means that Absorbing Man will be able to double his own power, which can hit heavy in strategic instances.
