Marvel Snap pool 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 cards - every new and upcoming card

Want to know what cards are inside every Marvel Snap pool? Cards in Marvel Snap are divided into series, though the community prefers to use the term pools. Players unlock cards by reaching higher tiers on the collection level track, though the cards you unlock are randomised within that pool.

If you desperately need one specific card to create one of the best Marvel Snap decks, you can either cross your fingers every time you unlock a new mystery card or collector's cache, or save up collector's tokens and pay close attention to the rotating stock in the shop. Our guide breaks down what cards are featured in each pool to help you keep track of what cards you may unlock next.

Best Marvel Snap Death deck

The best Marvel Snap Death deck is a hot topic right now, because Death is one of the most powerful cards in the game assuming you can reduce her cost enough to allow her to be played. Death costs nine energy by default, which is too expensive on the face of it since a standard game only goes up to turn six, but her effect is that she costs one less per card destroyed. So, short of Lamentis-1 occurring in every match, how do you take advantage of Death and destroy effects?

It's actually a fairly simple and common archetype in the card game, provided you're lucky enough to pull Death in pool three or buy her from the token shop. There are plenty of cards that synergise with the destroy mechanic in-game - Carnage, Deathlok, and Killmonger come to mind - and plenty of others that can support Death, making her one of the best Marvel Snap decks overall. Here's the best Death deck list and some tips for playing it.
