Despite this destructive effect, Mary can turn into an unstoppable powerhouse when accompanied by support characters. This Marvel Snap guide explains how to build a META deck for Typhoid Mary to maximize her dominance.

Explore the card synergies here:
- Luke Cage and Zero cancel out Typhoid Mary’s effect. They turn her into a harmless 4-10 card.
- Lizard and Yellowjacket exploit Luke and Zero’s effect. They retain their Power while losing side effects.
- Armor protects Mary against possible Shang-Chi counterplays.
- The Hood and Viper create a 6-Power Demon while afflicting the enemy with -3 Power.
- Spectrum and Odin serve as the primary finishers. Spectrum buffs Mary — and other Ongoing cards — while Odin retriggers the On Reveal effect of other powerhouses.
Other cards that go well with Typhoid Mary are Mobius M. Mobius, Mister Fantastic, and Captain America.
Typhoid Mary In a Junk Deck
Since the debut of Annihilus, Typhoid Mary has become an excellent junk-archetype candidate. The Annihilus-Mary duo can create incredibly disruptive decks that clog and ruin enemy lanes with no mercy.

How to Play Typhoid Mary
When dropping Mary, players should negate her negative Power first. For that, they must always prepare the board with defensive cards like Luke Cage or Zero. Luke protects cards against Mary’s friendly fire, while Zero removes her text entirely.
Below are the best combos for Typhoid Mary:
- Zero, Mary, Taskmaster. Playing this trio grants two 10-Power cards in round five, leaving room for another finisher in the final turn.
- Luke Cage, Typhoid Mary, Spectrum. While Luke stops Mary’s negative effect, Spectrum buffs her.
- Lizard, Yellowjacket, Luke, Mary. This lane would have 19 Power with no negative afflictions.
Typhoid Mary Counters
As a 10-Power card, Typhoid Mary can be easily countered with Shan-Chi. However, other destruction counterplays, such as Alioth and Negasonic Teenage Warhead, are also good options.
Technically, since most players nullify Mary’s effect with Luke Cage, Enchantress is another disruptive card. She stops Luke’s effect, afflicting all enemy cards with -1 Power.
