Peni Parker, the latest Marvel Rivals themed card in Marvel Snap, arrives after Galacta and Luna Snow. Familiar to fans of the Spider-Verse films, Peni Parker is a unique ramp card.
Peni Parker's Gameplay:
This 2-cost, 3-power card reveals SP//dr to your hand. If Peni Parker merges with another card, you gain +1 energy the next turn. SP//dr, a 3-cost, 3-power card, merges with another card on reveal and allows you to move that card on the following turn. This merging mechanic is key; any card merging with Peni Parker provides the extra energy, not just SP//dr. The SP//dr movement ability is a one-time effect per turn.
Top Peni Parker Decks:
Peni Parker's effectiveness depends heavily on synergy. While her 5-energy combined cost for the merge and extra energy is high, she shines in specific deck builds.
One effective deck utilizes Wiccan, creating a powerful combo. This deck, while expensive (requiring several Series 5 cards), offers flexibility with card substitutions. The core strategy involves playing Quicksilver and a 2-cost card (ideally Hawkeye Kate Bishop or Peni Parker) to set up Wiccan's effect, allowing for powerful late-game plays with Gorr and Alioth.
Another deck incorporates Peni Parker into a Scream-style move deck, leveraging card manipulation for lane control and victory. This deck's complexity requires strategic foresight, using Kraven and Scream to control board power, while Peni Parker's merge enables the play of both Alioth and Magneto in a single game.
Collector's Tokens or Spotlight Cache Keys?
Currently, Peni Parker isn't a top priority for Collector's Tokens or Spotlight Cache Keys. While a generally useful card, her impact doesn't outweigh many other stronger options in the current Marvel Snap meta. However, her potential will likely increase as the game evolves.
