Phastos is the newest card in Marvel Snap but is he good? I had high hopes for Phastos but after playing with him for over an hour I have to admit that he's pretty bad. Even if you play him on turn 3, the optimal turn to play him, he feels pretty weak. And you can get unlucky in terms of energy reduction or power increase too - the energy cheat seems much stronger out of the two. It could be that the deck I played him in wasn't that good or that I was really rubbish at drawing the card in time. But even in a Silver Surfer deck you have to draw him on curve for him to be useful. I'm not a fan of the card at all and don't recommend opening him from Spotlight Caches. Watch this video for my card review on Phastos and a High Evolutionary deck with him.

Phastos can fit in a lot of decks, like thanos and control deck, unlike mr. negative, he don’t have a side effect, which means you can play him on turn 3 without thinking, I’d say it got potentials

I figured he'd work in high evo, the first place I tried him was Deadpool shuri rod, works pretty well

I tired him both in a living tribunal deck along with a thanos ramp, both worked well if you acually draw him on curve and if he discounts instead of buffs.

Honestly, it seems like you don’t like Phastos because you put him the wrong deck.

Nah he is just a bad card. If you don't draw him on or before 3, he is exponentially worse. There are easier ways to discount cards or buff them.

@jjprs3062 Ай бұрын

He's just too unreliable. You can't use him well in a buff deck centered around his buffs or in a value tempo deck centered around his cost reductions. Its ironic. His ability which allowed him to do both things prevents him from being reasonably useful and reliable in those same exact things.

Yup. You would honestly be better off playing Okoye in a Ravonna deck. Or just play Mr Negative Ravonna.

I'm so with Nina of being tired of "new surfer cards." I'm so sick of Surfer Decks. Every other card release, 9/10 Snap Streams are all, "This card makes an old deck even better!" 🤦🏿‍♂️🙄🤮

@An.Unsought.Thought Ай бұрын

This month overall was pretty disappointing. Sersi might be the best but she can also backfire quite a lot. Arishem is basically Distict X by choice. Might wait until next month.. but part of me wants to roll the Arishem week for the Black Swan and Hercules. They may not be popular but I see some uses for them. Particularly a Black Swan last turn zoo deck and paring Hercules with Prof X and Kingpin. But I really hope future cards add more to the game. Not necessarily OP, but enabling new deck types or making old deck types better.
