Top Agamotto Decks for Marvel Snap Revealed

*Marvel Snap* is taking players back in time with the exciting Prehistoric Avengers season. The highlight of this season is undoubtedly the Season Pass card, Agamotto, an ancient sorcerer linked to Doctor Strange. Here’s a comprehensive guide to the best Agamotto decks in *Marvel Snap*.

How Agamotto Works in Marvel Snap

Agamotto is a powerful 5-cost, 10-power card with an ability that reads: “Game Start: Shuffle 4 Ancient Arcana into your deck.” The Ancient Arcana cards shuffled into your deck include:

• Temporal Manipulation: A 1-cost card that says, “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 that states, “On Reveal: Afflict an enemy card here with -5 Power and move it right. (Banish this.)”
• Bolts of Balthakk: A 3-cost card with the ability, “On Reveal: Next turn, you get +4 Energy. (Banish this.)”
• Images of Ikonn: A 4-cost card that reads, “On Reveal: Transform your other cards here into copies of the highest-Power one. (Banish this.)”

Notably, the Ancient Arcana cards lack a Power cost and feature a new keyword, "Banish." This means they are classified as Skill cards, not character cards, and are removed from play after their effect is triggered, without entering the discard or destroy piles. Consequently, while they can combo with Wong, they won’t trigger with Odin, and cards like King Etri, Ravonna Renslayer, or Mister Negative won’t affect them.

Agamotto’s versatility with the Ancient Arcana makes him difficult to pin to a single archetype, as he dilutes a deck, affecting specific gameplans.

Best Day One Agamotto Decks in Marvel Snap

While Agamotto might eventually form his own archetype, he currently fits well into two established deck types: Wiccan Control and Push Scream. Let’s explore the Wiccan Control deck first:

• 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 quite expensive, featuring several Series 5 cards, with Quicksilver being the only non-Series 5 card. If you haven’t been keeping up with season passes, this might not be for you. However, most cards can be swapped for similar-cost alternatives, except for Galacta, Wiccan, and Agamotto.

Despite diluting the deck, Bolts of Balthakk’s +4 energy boost helps maintain an end-game flourish even if you miss Wiccan on turn 4. Temporal Manipulation pulls Agamotto early, increasing your chance to draw other spells. Wombs of Watoomb disrupts the opponent effectively, while Images of Ikonn can multiply the impact of your strongest cards like Cassandra Nova, Wiccan, or Galacta.

Cassandra Nova may see increased play, especially with Eson, the other card released with Agamotto, fitting well into Arishem decks.

Now, let’s look at the Push Scream deck:

• 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 is also pricey, featuring several Series 5 cards. You can replace Hydra Bob with Nightcrawler and Iron Patriot with Jeff if needed. While only Wombs of Watoomb synergizes directly with Agamotto, the other Ancient Arcana add significant value. Temporal Manipulation makes Agamotto a strong turn 6 play, especially after Bolts of Balthakk. Images of Ikonn can create multiple copies of powerful cards like Scream, Spider-Man, or Cannonball, disrupting your opponent's strategy.

Agamotto could make this deck less predictable and provide an edge against decks with Luke Cage and Shadow King.

Should You Buy the Prehistoric Avengers Season Pass?

Agamotto, if not nerfed, is on par with powerhouses like Thanos or Arishem. He’s likely to be a meta-defining card, creating powerful synergies and potentially forming his own archetype. At 9.99 USD, this Season Pass is a worthwhile investment for players looking to enhance their *Marvel Snap* experience.

And there you have it—the best Agamotto decks in *Marvel Snap*. Dive into the Prehistoric Avengers season and harness the power of Agamotto to dominate your opponents!
