Marvel Snap's Top-Tier Lasher Decks Unveiled

In Marvel Snap's final days of the Marvel Rivals season, a free card—Lasher—awaits players who conquer the returning High Voltage game mode. But is this new symbiote worth the effort?

Lasher's Mechanics in Marvel Snap

Lasher is a 2-cost, 2-power card with the ability: Activate: Inflict -Power equal to this card's Power on an enemy card here.

Essentially, Lasher debuffs an opponent's card by -2 power unless boosted. Given Marvel Snap's numerous buff options, Lasher offers more potential than free cards like Agony and King Etri.

For example, Namora can transform Lasher into a 7-power card, or even a 12-power card with Wong or Odin, effectively creating a -14 or -24 power swing. He synergizes particularly well with the season pass card, Galacta.

Remember, as an Activate card, playing Lasher by turn 5 maximizes its impact.

Optimal Lasher Decks in Marvel Snap

While Lasher's meta position is still developing, he fits well into buff-heavy decks like Silver Surfer. This archetype usually lacks 2-cost slots, but Lasher's late-game activation provides significant power shifts. Here's a sample deck:

Nova, Forge, Lasher, Okoye, Brood, Silver Surfer, Killmonger, Nakia, Red Guardian, Sebastian Shaw, Copycat, Galacta: Daughter of Galactus. (Copy this list from Untapped)

This deck features several expensive Series 5 cards (Red Guardian, Sebastian Shaw, Copycat, and Galacta—unless you own the season pass). However, except for Galacta, these can be replaced with other strong 3-cost cards like Juggernaut or Polaris.

Lasher serves as an excellent third target for Forge, ideally saved for Brood or Sebastian Shaw. After playing Galacta on turn 4, buff options often run dry, making Lasher a valuable addition. A 5-power Lasher buffed by Galacta inflicts -5 power, effectively a 10-power play without extra energy cost on the final turn.

This Silver Surfer deck is adaptable; consider excluding cards like Absorbing Man, Gwenpool, and Sera.

Lasher's strongest potential lies within current meta decks featuring hand and board buffs. While he might find a niche in affliction decks without buffs, experimentation with Namora as a primary booster is promising. Another example deck:

Agony, Zabu, Lasher, Psylocke, Hulk Buster, Jeff!, Captain Marvel, Scarlet Spider, Galacta: Daughter of Galactus, Gwenpool, Symbiote Spider-Man, Namora. (Copy this list from Untapped)

This is a very expensive deck requiring several Series 5 cards (Scarlet Spider, Galacta, Gwenpool, Symbiote Spider-Man, and Namora). Jeff can be substituted with Nightcrawler.

This potent deck relies on Galacta, Gwenpool, and Namora to buff Lasher and Scarlet Spider, spreading power across the board. Zabu and Psylocke accelerate 4-cost card deployment, while Symbiote Spider-Man reactivates Namora. Jeff! and Hulk Buster offer backup.

Is Lasher Worth the High Voltage Grind?

Given Marvel Snap's increasing cost, Lasher is worth acquiring if you have the time to grind High Voltage. It offers numerous rewards before unlocking Lasher. While not guaranteed to become a meta staple, like Agony, he'll likely see play in several relevant decks.
