Peni Parker, the latest Marvel Rivals themed card in Marvel Snap, arrives after Galacta and Luna Snow. Familiar to Spider-Verse fans, Peni Parker is a ramp card with a unique twist.
Peni Parker's Gameplay in Marvel Snap
Peni Parker (2 cost, 3 power) has the ability: "On Reveal: Add SP//dr to your hand. When this merges, you get +1 Energy next turn."
SP//dr (3 cost, 3 power) has the ability: "On Reveal: Merge with one of your cards here. You can move that card next turn."
Essentially, Peni Parker adds SP//dr, a movable card, to your hand. Merging any card with Peni Parker grants +1 energy for your next turn. This isn't limited to SP//dr; cards like Hulk Buster and Agony also trigger this effect. SP//dr's movement ability is only active the turn after merging.
Top Peni Parker Decks in Marvel Snap
Peni Parker's high energy cost (5 for the combined effect) requires strategic synergy. Two deck examples highlight her potential:
Deck 1: Wiccan Synergy Deck
This deck leverages Wiccan's ability. Key cards include Quicksilver, Fenris Wolf, Hawkeye, Kate Bishop, Peni Parker, Quake, Negasonic Teenage Warhead, Red Guardian, Gladiator, Shang-Chi, Wiccan, Gorr the God Butcher, and Alioth. This deck is flexible, allowing for substitutions based on your meta and collection. The strategy involves playing Quicksilver and a 2-cost card (ideally Hawkeye Kate Bishop or Peni Parker) to enable Wiccan's effect, followed by powerful plays like Gorr and Alioth.
Deck 2: Scream Move Deck
This deck utilizes Peni Parker within a Scream move strategy. Key cards include Agony, Kingpin, Kraven, Peni Parker, Scream, Juggernaut, Polaris, Spider-Man (Miles Morales), Spider-Man, Cannonball, and Alioth. This deck requires precise card manipulation and prediction. Kraven and Scream control lanes, while Peni Parker's energy boost facilitates playing Alioth and Magneto in a single turn.
Is Peni Parker Worth the Investment?
Currently, Peni Parker's value is debatable. While a generally good card, she lacks the immediate impact of other stronger options in the current Marvel Snap meta. Her effectiveness is likely to increase as the game evolves.
