How Moonstone Works in Marvel Snap
Moonstone is a 4-cost, 6-power card with an ability that reads: “Ongoing: Has the Ongoing effects of your 1, 2, and 3-Cost cards here.”
Moonstone synergizes exceptionally well with cards like Ant-Man, Quinjet, Ravonna Renslayer, and Patriot. When paired with Mystique, she can double the impact of powerful Ongoing abilities like those of Iron Man and Onslaught. However, she's vulnerable to Enchantress, who can negate all card effects in a lane unless countered by Cosmo. Echo is another less common but significant threat to watch out for, especially in combo-heavy Moonstone decks.

This deck contains no Series 5 cards other than Moonstone. The strategy involves playing Patriot with Mystique and then deploying Ultron on the final turn to fill other lanes with 6-power Drones, boosting them to a total of 24 power. With Moonstone added to the mix, this can double to 48 power, making it a formidable line if not countered by Enchantress. Ant-Man and Dazzler enhance the deck's synergy with Moonstone, while Iron Lad helps find key cards. Invisible Woman protects Patriot and Mystique from direct counters, though watch out for Alioth.

This deck includes Series 5 cards like Victoria Hand and Wiccan, which are crucial, and Copycat, which can be swapped for other 3-cost cards like Red Guardian or Rocket Raccoon. The classic Devil Dinosaur strategy involves playing the dinosaur on turn 5, copying its effect with Mystique, and using Agent Coulson to fill your hand. Victoria Hand amplifies the effects of Hawkeye, Kate Bishop, and Agent Coulson, while also providing another target for Mystique.
Incorporating Moonstone requires strategic planning. Position Moonstone in the lane where Mystique will copy Devil Dinosaur or Victoria Hand to maximize her impact. Be mindful of Cosmo's placement to counter threats like Enchantress.

Absolutely, Moonstone is a worthy investment. Her ability to synergize with Mystique opens up numerous strategic possibilities, and her potential in Zoo decks is noteworthy. As new Ongoing cards are released, players will increasingly consider their synergy with Moonstone, ensuring her relevance in the meta. Expect to see several meta-relevant decks featuring Moonstone following her release.
