Our guide breaks down the best Black Knight decks in Marvel Snap, ensuring you’re ready to rack up some discard wins this season.

Black Knight’s Ability in Marvel Snap

Black Knight variants

Black Knight enters Marvel Snap as a 1-cost, 2-power card. His unique ability reads: “After you discard a card, add the Ebony Blade to your hand with that card’s power (once per game).” The Ebony Blade, while costing 4, will have a power equivalent to the discarded card, making it a versatile option for discard players.

Black Knight’s synergy with discard decks is undeniable. High-power cards can fuel the Ebony Blade’s power, turning a discarded card into a potential powerhouse.

However, players should be cautious. The once-per-game limitation on the Ebony Blade means strategic timing is essential to get the most out of Black Knight’s ability. It’s crucial to decide when to discard a card to ensure the Ebony Blade is as powerful as possible.

Despite this, Black Knight’s unique ability to turn discards into powerful plays, combined with his synergy with top meta discard decks, positions him as a potential game-changer in Marvel Snap.
