Here’s how the cards synergize:
A good combo for Magneto is Wave, as she can drop the Cost of big cards for one turn. Another consistent card for this deck is Lockjaw, which can bring out a formidable card at a much lower cost.
How to Play Magneto
Previously, Magneto was an excellent choice forcontrol decks, as he could move all 3- and 4-Cost enemy cards. However, as of the recent changes, Magneto works best as a passive buff card in Hela or Blob decks. So, the best way to play him is to keep him in the deck or discard him.
How to Counter Magneto
Countering Magneto inMarvel Snapcan be tricky due to his synergy with other powerful cards in decks like Hela and Blob. While individual card counters like Shang-Chi or Cosmo can help, a more strategic approach involves disrupting the overall strategy. In this case,including Shadow King in your deckcan be effective, as he can remove Blob’s buff gained from Magneto and other potent cards.
