The Marvel Snap season themed around Marvel Rivals is winding down, but a freebie from October's "We Are Venom" season remains available: Lasher, obtainable through the returning High Voltage game mode. Is this symbiote worth the effort? Let's find out.
Lasher is a 2-cost, 2-power card with the ability: "Activate: Afflict an enemy card here with negative Power equal to this card’s Power."
Essentially, Lasher inflicts -2 power on an opponent's card unless boosted. Given Marvel Snap's many buff options, Lasher offers more potential than other free cards like Agony and King Etri. For example, Namora can boost Lasher to 7 power, or even 12 (or more with Wong or Odin), making him a powerful late-game play. He synergizes particularly well with the season pass card, Galacta.
Remember, as an "Activate" card, playing Lasher by turn 5 maximizes its impact.
While Lasher's meta position is still developing, he fits well into buff-heavy decks, especially Silver Surfer decks. While Silver Surfer decks usually lack space for 2-cost cards, Lasher's late-game activation provides significant power swings. Here's an example decklist:
Nova, Forge, Lasher, Okoye, Brood, Silver Surfer, Killmonger, Nakia, Red Guardian, Sebastian Shaw, Copycat, Galacta: Daughter of Galactus. (Copyable from Untapped)
This deck features expensive Series 5 cards (Red Guardian, Sebastian Shaw, Copycat, Galacta), but substitutes are possible (Juggernaut or Polaris for non-Galacta cards). Lasher serves as a third target for Forge, ideally saved for Brood or Sebastian Shaw. After playing Galacta on turn 4, Lasher becomes a valuable target for remaining buffs, effectively becoming a 10-power card (5 power + -5 inflicted on opponent).
This is a flexible Silver Surfer deck; consider experimenting by removing cards like Absorbing Man, Gwenpool, and Sera.
Another potential deck utilizes Namora as the primary buff:
Agony, Zabu, Lasher, Psylocke, Hulk Buster, Jeff!, Captain Marvel, Scarlet Spider, Galacta: Daughter of Galactus, Gwenpool, Symbiote Spider-Man, Namora. (Copyable from Untapped)
This high-cost deck (featuring several essential Series 5 cards: Scarlet Spider, Galacta, Gwenpool, Symbiote Spider-Man, and Namora) focuses on buffing Lasher and Scarlet Spider via Galacta, Gwenpool, and Namora. Zabu and Psylocke accelerate 4-cost card deployment, Symbiote Spider-Man reactivates Namora, and Jeff! and Hulk Buster provide backup.
In the increasingly expensive Marvel Snap environment, Lasher is worth the High Voltage grind. High Voltage offers numerous rewards before Lasher is unlocked. While not a guaranteed meta staple, like Agony, he'll likely see play in several meta-relevant decks.
