With high-powered cards likeMarvel Snap’s She-Hulkdefining the meta, it is quite easy to overlook some of the smaller but very interesting choices. However, Bast is one card that should not be overlooked, as its effect can be archetype-defining. With the powerful On Reveal effect of setting the Power of all cards in your hand to three, Bast can sometimes be a turn one play that adds around twelve Power to your hand consistently. Because of this, the card has been slotted into a wide variety of decks, with each being heavily improved by the card’s presence.
What decks benefit the most from Bast in Marvel Snap?
Mister Negative
Right off the bat, the archetype that benefits the most from the inclusion of Bast isMister Negative. Since Negative decks already wanted to run low Power cards, the inclusion of bast typically turns your hand from sub-par to game-winning. Hitting incredible low Power targets likeIron Man,Mystique, or even Mister Negative himself makes Bast one of the archetype’s best cards, and in games where you don’t draw Mister Negative Bast can pull out some strong wins.
For those looking to give this deck a try, here is one of the strongest lists:

Deadpool
Though Deadpool has always faced problems in the meta due to popular tech cards like Armor and Cosmo, it is still a fun and sometimes powerful option, and Bast further increases its potential. Due to Bast’s ability coming down and immediately making Deadpool a three Power card, Bast gives the deck a huge Power spike when played. Bast also buffs key cards other than Deadpool, such asCarnage,Venom,Wolverine, andKnull.

Cerebro 3
Overall, the Cerebro archetype held in the highest regard is Cerebro 2 due to its tools and consistency. However, the addition ofBastand Valkyrie have taken Cerebro 3 from a meme deck to a legitimate choice for climbing. With Bast setting all cards in hand to that key three Power spot and Valkyrie doing the same on the field, the deck now has the consistency it needs and the ability to run other unique cards that can be played alongside these two key cards. This is why many Cerebro 3 decks runWaspandYellow Jacket, as they can now easily be set to three Power.
