Unlocking Lasher in Marvel Snap: Is He Worth the Grind?

While the Marvel Rivals season in Marvel Snap winds down, a free reward awaits: Lasher, a holdover from October's We Are Venom season, obtainable through the returning High Voltage game mode. But is this symbiote worth the effort?

Lasher's Mechanics in Marvel Snap

Lasher, a 2-cost, 2-power card, boasts an ability: "Activate: Afflict an enemy card here with negative Power equal to this card’s Power." Essentially, he inflicts -2 power on an opponent's card unless enhanced. This offers more potential than free cards like Agony or King Etri, thanks to Marvel Snap's buffing mechanics.

For example, Namora can boost Lasher to 7 power, or even 12 (or more with Wong/Odin), significantly impacting the game. He synergizes particularly well with the season pass card, Galacta. Remember, as an "Activate" card, playing Lasher by turn 5 maximizes his effect.

Optimal Lasher Decks

Lasher's optimal placement is still developing, but he shines in buff-heavy meta decks like Silver Surfer. While Silver Surfer decks often lack space for 2-cost cards, Lasher's late-game activation provides substantial power swings. Consider this decklist:

Nova, Forge, Lasher, Okoye, Brood, Silver Surfer, Killmonger, Nakia, Red Guardian, Sebastian Shaw, Copycat, Galacta. (Copyable from Untapped)

This deck features high-cost Series 5 cards (Red Guardian, Sebastian Shaw, Copycat, Galacta), replaceable with cards like Juggernaut or Polaris. Lasher serves as a third target for Forge, ideally saved for Brood or Sebastian Shaw. After playing Galacta on turn 4, Lasher becomes crucial, transforming into a powerful 10-power card (with Galacta's buff) that inflicts -5 power on an opponent's card.

Another deck incorporating Lasher leverages significant buffs:

Agony, Zabu, Lasher, Psylocke, Hulk Buster, Jeff!, Captain Marvel, Scarlet Spider, Galacta, Gwenpool, Symbiote Spider-Man, Namora. (Copyable from Untapped)

This high-cost deck (featuring numerous Series 5 cards) relies on Galacta, Gwenpool, and Namora to enhance cards like Lasher and Scarlet Spider. Zabu and Psylocke facilitate early deployment of 4-cost cards, while Symbiote Spider-Man reactivates Namora. Jeff! and Hulk Buster offer backup.

Is the High Voltage Grind Worth It?

Given Marvel Snap's increasing cost, Lasher is a worthwhile acquisition if you have the time to grind High Voltage. High Voltage offers various rewards before unlocking Lasher. While not guaranteed to become a meta staple, Lasher, like Agony, will likely see play in several meta-relevant decks.
