Bounce deck has been one of the tricky but thriving archetypes in Marvel Snap’s metagame. However, recent updates, such as the inclusion of cards like Mirage and buffs to cards like Hawkeye, have left players pondering which lineup would be most advantageous for bounce strategies. This comprehensive Marvel Snap guide presents the top META bounce deck featuring affordable cards. Here’s the setup that can dominate Conquests and PvP battles.
The Best Deck for Bounce Archetype
The ideal bounce deck in the current metagame is a Kitty Pryde-Beast lineup. To replicate this setup, players will need to have Kitty Pryde team up with Beast and complete the deck with Bast, Forge, Falcon, Cosmo, Hawkeye, Angela, Iron Man, The Hood, The Collector, and America Chavez.

The bounce synergies of the deck are as follows:
- Beast serves as the primary bounce initiator, returning cards with one less Cost.
- Falcon recollects 1-Cost cards (Forge, Hawkeye, Bast, The Hood). This allows for another round of buffs and multiple free 6-Power Demons.
- Bast helps negate the effect of The Hood while maximizing the Power of Hawkeye, Kitty, Forge, Angela, and even Iron Man.
- The Collector gains passive Power from bouncing cards.
- Kitty Pryde and Angela create a cheap buff team.
- Cosmo protects the deck against Shadow King, Shang-Chi, and the like.
Best Replacement Cards for Bounce Archetype
Surefire bounce cards like Beast and Bast aside, the best alternatives for a bounce deck are Mirage, Mysterio, Bishop, and Hit-Monkey. These characters either benefit from returning cards or set the stage for them. However, players can also consider using Nightcrawler, Jeff!, Brood, and Loki to max out a bounce deck’s power.
Best Strategy for Playing Bounce Decks
The goal of a bounce deck is to reuse the On Reveal effects of cards. Strategy-wise, players should prioritize growing cards like Kitty Pryde, Hawkeye, and The Hood only to recollect and drop them again.
For the above deck, playing the following combos would be ideal:
- Bast into The Hood and Falcon. This combo would remove The Hood’s negative Power, add a 1-Cost 6-Power Demon to hand, and return both cards for a replicated attack.
- Forge into Hawkeye and Bast. After this combo, Hawkeye becomes a 6-Power card that can be bounced with Falcon for another +6 Power buff.
- Beast into buffed 1-Cost cards before the final round. Dropping Beast over maxed out Hawkeye, Forge, Kitty Pryde, and The Hood would fill the hand with 0-Cost powerhouses for the last turn.
