Top Eson Decks for Marvel Snap Revealed

Get ready, *Marvel Snap* fans, because another Celestial powerhouse, Eson, is entering the fray. While he may not revolutionize the game like his protege Arishem, Eson brings unique strategies to the table. Here's a detailed look at the best Eson decks in *Marvel Snap*.

How Eson Works in Marvel Snap

Eson is a formidable 6-cost, 10-power card with an intriguing ability: “End of Turn: Put a created card from your hand here.” In Marvel Snap, a "created card" refers to one generated during gameplay, such as from White Queen or Arishem, rather than one that started in your deck. This allows you to strategically use Eson's ability, as it won't pull cards originally in your deck to the board.

Given Eson's 6-cost, you'll need assistance from ramp cards like Electro, Wave, and Luna Snow to deploy him earlier and maximize his impact. The only direct counter to Eson is filling your opponent's hand with unwanted cards, such as rocks or Sentinels from Master Mold, as Gorgon isn't effective against him.

Best Day One Eson Decks in Marvel Snap

Eson synergizes exceptionally well with Arishem. Ideally, you shouldn't play one without the other, as Arishem enables you to play Eson on turn 5 and gain two free pulls. Here's a recommended deck list:

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

The Series 5 cards in this deck include Iron Patriot, Valentina, Doom 2099, Galacta Daughter of Galactus, Mockingbird, and Arishem. However, only Doom 2099 and Arishem are essential for this strategy. You can swap in other cards like Jeff, Agent Coulson, and Blob to suit your playstyle.

Eson serves as an alternative lane-winning condition if you don’t pull Mockingbird or generate high-power cards. You can save cards generated by Arishem for after playing Eson on turn 5, giving you two turns to utilize them effectively. If you don't have any suitable pulls, you can opt not to play Eson and instead use Doctor Doom.

Note that playing Eson for more than three turns isn't advisable, making turn 5 the optimal play. Also, Eson has anti-synergy with Doom 2099, so choose your game plan wisely before playing either.

Creating another deck for Eson can be challenging, but a hand-generation deck similar to the old Devil Dinosaur lists could work—minus the Devil Dinosaur. Here’s an alternative list:

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

The Series 5 cards in this list are Iron Patriot, Peni Parker, Valentina, Victoria Hand, Luna Snow, Wiccan, and Mockingbird. Wiccan is crucial for this deck, while other cards can be replaced with options like Sentinel, Psylocke, and Wave.

The strategy here is to play Wiccan on turn 4, using Quinjet to discount hand-generated cards. Play the cheaper cards early, saving the expensive ones for Eson to pull late in the game. Mockingbird offers another power spike, while Peni Parker and Luna Snow help ramp Eson out earlier. This deck's playlines can vary greatly based on the cards you generate, making it both unpredictable and exciting.

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

If you're low on resources and don't play Arishem, it might not be wise to invest in Eson with other promising cards like Starbrand and Khonshu on the horizon. However, if you're an Arishem enthusiast, Eson is a must-have addition to your collection.

And those are the best Eson decks in Marvel Snap. Whether you're looking to dominate with Arishem or experiment with hand-generation strategies, Eson offers exciting new possibilities.
