Top Eson Decks for Marvel Snap Revealed

Get ready for another powerful Celestial to join the fray in *Marvel Snap* – Eson is on the horizon, though he may not shake the meta as intensely as Arishem. Dive into the best Eson decks and strategies to make the most out of this cosmic entity.

How Eson Works in Marvel Snap

Eson comes in as a 6-cost card with a hefty 10 power and an intriguing ability: "End of Turn: Put a created card from your hand here." A "created card" in *Marvel Snap* is any card that's generated during the game, such as those from White Queen or Arishem, and not initially part of your deck. This unique mechanic allows for strategic placement of these cards onto the board through Eson. However, as a 6-cost card, you'll need assistance from ramp cards like Electro, Wave, and Luna Snow to deploy Eson earlier and maximize his potential. Be wary of opponents using tactics like filling your hand with undesirable cards to counter Eson's effectiveness.

Best Day One Eson Decks in Marvel Snap

Eson synergizes perfectly with Arishem, making them a dynamic duo in *Marvel Snap*. For the best results, you'll want to include Arishem in your Eson deck. A recommended deck list includes:

• Iron Patriot
• Valentina
• Luke Cage
• Doom 2088
• Shang-Chi
• Enchantress
• Galacta Daughter of Galactus
• Legion
• Doctor Doom
• Mockingbird
• Eson
• Arishem

Essential cards for this setup are Doom 2099 and Arishem, but you can swap in alternatives like Jeff, Agent Coulson, and Blob to fit your collection. Eson serves as an alternative win condition, especially if you don't draw Mockingbird or other high-power cards. With Arishem, you can hold onto generated cards and play them after Eson, ideally on turn 5, to gain an edge. Keep in mind that Eson's synergy with Doom 2099 is not ideal, so plan your strategy accordingly.

For a different approach, consider a hand-generation deck reminiscent of old Devil Dinosaur lists, but without the Dinosaur. A sample deck might look like:

• Maria Hill
• Quinjet
• Iron Patriot
• Peni Parker
• Valentina
• Victoria Hand
• Agent Coulson
• White Queen
• Luna Snow
• Wiccan
• Mockingbird
• Eson

Click here to copy this list from Untapped. Key Series 5 cards include Iron Patriot, Peni Parker, Valentina, Victoria Hand, Luna Snow, Wiccan, and Mockingbird. Wiccan is crucial here, but other cards can be swapped with Sentinel, Psylocke, or Wave. The goal is to leverage Wiccan on turn 4 to discount hand-generated cards, allowing you to play out the cheaper ones before using Eson to pull the more expensive ones late game. This deck's playstyle varies significantly with each card generation, making it both unpredictable and thrilling.

Should You Spend Spotlight Cache Keys or Collector’s Tokens on Eson?

If you're low on resources and not an Arishem enthusiast, you might want to hold off on acquiring Eson, especially with other exciting cards like Starbrand and Khonshu coming soon. However, for dedicated Arishem players, adding Eson to your collection is a smart move that can enhance your deck's performance.

These are the top Eson decks to try in *Marvel Snap*. Experiment with these strategies to see how Eson can transform your gameplay and dominate the battlefield.
