Gorgon: A Costly Counter

Gorgon (2-cost, 3-power) boasts the ability: "Ongoing: Your opponent's cards not starting in their deck cost 1 more (max 6)." This directly counters Arishem decks and impacts strategies relying on drawn cards like Discard decks. However, cards like Mobius M. Mobius, Rogue, or Enchantress can negate Gorgon's effect.

Laufey: Power Stealing Prowess

Laufey (4-cost, 5-power) possesses the ability: "On Reveal: Steal 1 Power from each other card here." With four opposing cards, Laufey becomes a formidable 13-power card. Its synergy with Zabu, Diamondback, and Ajax makes it a potent addition to affliction-style decks.

Uncle Ben: A Spider-Man Surprise

Uncle Ben (1-cost, 2-power) has the unique ability: "When this card is destroyed, replace it with Spider-Man." This creates synergy with Destroy cards like Carnage, Venom, and Lady Deathstrike, offering a compelling alternative to Bucky Barnes. Spider-Man's "On Reveal: Move to another location and pull an enemy card from here to there" ability adds further disruption.

Top Decks Featuring Gorgon, Laufey, and Uncle Ben

Is Grinding for These Cards Worth It?

Acquiring these cards in Marvel Rivals costs 3600 Charms. Unless you're dedicated to affliction decks (Laufey), focusing on obtaining Series 4 and 5 cards might yield better results.

In conclusion, while Gorgon, Laufey, and Uncle Ben offer unique strategic elements, their effectiveness depends heavily on your existing card pool and preferred playstyle. Laufey presents the most compelling case for dedicated acquisition.
