Victoria Hand: Mastering Marvel Snap's Newest Ongoing Card

Marvel Snap's 2025 Spotlight Cache introduces Victoria Hand, an Ongoing card that boosts the power of cards generated within your hand. While primarily associated with card-generation decks, Victoria Hand surprisingly excels in discard decks as well. This guide explores two effective deck builds leveraging her unique ability, helping you navigate the current metagame.

Optimal Victoria Hand Deck

Victoria Hand synergizes perfectly with Devil Dinosaur in a card-generation deck. This powerful combo is enhanced by: Quinjet, Mirage, Frigga, Valentina, Cosmo, The Collector, Agent Coulson, Agent 13, Kate Bishop, and Moon Girl.

Flexible slots (Agent 13, Kate Bishop, Frigga) can be substituted with Iron Patriot, Mystique, or Speed.

Deck Synergies:

• Victoria Hand empowers cards generated in your hand.
• Agent Coulson, Agent 13, Mirage, Frigga, Valentina, Kate Bishop, and Moon Girl are your key card generators. Frigga and Moon Girl also duplicate key cards for added power or disruption.
• Quinjet reduces the cost of generated cards.
• The Collector's power increases with each generated card.
• Cosmo provides crucial protection, safeguarding your Devil Dino and Victoria Hand lane.
• Devil Dinosaur is your primary win condition, ideally played after Moon Girl or when you have numerous generated cards.

Note: There are reports of Victoria Hand potentially buffing enemy-generated cards or cards that change locations. This requires clarification to determine if it's a bug or intended functionality.

Effective Victoria Hand Gameplay

Playing a Victoria Hand deck effectively requires:

1. Energy Management: Balance card generation with energy expenditure. A full hand maximizes Devil Dinosaur's potential, but you need sufficient energy to generate cards and utilize Victoria Hand's effect. Sometimes skipping a turn to maintain a full hand is more beneficial than filling the board.
2. Strategic Deception: Use unexpected card plays to mislead your opponent. The inherent randomness of Victoria Hand decks allows for clever misdirection.
3. Lane Protection: Your opponent will likely target your Victoria Hand lane. Combine Devil Dino and Victoria in the same lane (creating an Ongoing synergy) and protect them with Cosmo.

Alternative Discard Deck

Victoria Hand also finds a place in refined discard decks. Pair her with: Helicarrier, MODOK, Morbius, Scorn, Blade, Apocalypse, Swarm, Corvus Glaive, Colleen Wing, Lady Sif, and The Collector.

Countering Victoria Hand

Super Skrull is a strong counter, particularly effective against both Victoria Hand and Doctor Doom 2099 decks. Shadow King and Enchantress also provide effective counterplay, with Shadow King removing buffs from one lane and Enchantress neutralizing all Ongoing effects. Valkyrie can disrupt power distribution in key enemy lanes.

Is Victoria Hand Worth It?

Yes, Victoria Hand is a valuable card. Her consistent buffs and adaptability to different archetypes (card-generation and discard) make her a strong addition to any collection, regardless of acquisition method (Spotlight Cache or Tokens). While her effectiveness has some RNG dependence, building consistent decks around her is relatively straightforward.
