Top Redwing Decks for Marvel Snap Revealed

In the world of *Marvel Snap*, animal companions have been scarce, with only a handful like Cosmo, Groose, Zabu, and Hit Monkey gracing the game—until the arrival of Redwing alongside the Brave New World season. Falcon's feathered friend introduces a new dynamic to the game, enhancing the roster of animal allies.

How Redwing Works in Marvel Snap

Redwing is a 3-cost, 4-power card with a unique ability: "The first time this moves, add a card from your hand to the old location." However, there are important considerations to keep in mind. Redwing can only be activated once per game, limiting its potential even if you try to use Symbiote Spider-Man or bounce it back into your hand. Additionally, targeting a specific card with Redwing can be challenging, especially in move decks filled with smaller cards like Iron Fist that you might not want to use with Redwing's ability. Scream decks, which typically manipulate the opponent's cards, further complicate strategic use.

Despite these challenges, Redwing can be moved using cards like Madame Web or Cloak, which are accessible to players at lower Collection Levels. Strategically, Redwing could lead to surprising victories by setting up early plays with cards like Galactus or pulling high-power cards like The Infinaut.

This deck, while expensive with multiple Series 5 cards, aims to play Surtur on turn 3, followed by high-power cards to boost Surtur's power, with an alternative strategy of using Scream to steal power. The deck includes 'push' cards like Polaris, Aero, and Magneto, and Redwing can be used with Heimdall to enhance Surtur and pull a high-power card from your hand.

Another potential deck for Redwing involves Madame Web, as the nerf to Dagger has diminished the competitiveness of move decks. Here's an Ongoing style list:

• Ant-Man
• Madame Web
• Psylocke
• Sam Wilson
• Captain America
• Luke Cage
• Captain America
• Redwing
• Doom 2099
• Iron Lad
• Blue Marvel
• Doctor Doom
• Spectrum

This deck primarily revolves around Doom 2099's ability to spread power across locations. Madame Web aids in positioning Doom 2099's bots and moving Sam Wilson's shield, while also providing a way to activate Redwing's ability. On turn 6, either Doctor Doom or Spectrum can be played to spread or spike power, aiming for a win.

Is Redwing Worth Spotlight Cache Keys or Collector's Tokens?

Currently, Redwing may not be worth investing in with Spotlight Cache Keys or Collector's Tokens. Its limited utility and the underwhelming state of the move archetype suggest that it's better to save resources for more impactful cards that might be released later. Unless Redwing receives a significant buff, it's advisable to hold off on investing in this card.
