Over the past year and change, I've gotten to infinite playing most of these decks, and can personally vouch for their remaining good in the current metagame. I got infinite this season with the Darkhawk list you posted except trading out Lizard for Jeff. You DON'T need high series cards to do well in Snap.

I have played a version of your Toxic deck that consistently runs through the competition! Huge win and cube rates. Would you try it out and let me know what you think? It's a bit of a surprise deck. Here it is from lowest to highest costs: Hazmat (To do her thang!) Psylocke (Wait until turn 3 to use her to get the Sera out on turn 4.) Iron Heart (In case the opponent has Luke Cage in play.) Mystique (To copy Sera or Wong.) Magik (If I can't get the Sera pump from Psylocke on turn 3. I try to extend with Magik.) Cosmo (He is great for stopping opponents from getting their ideal board set up.) Luke Cage (I try to get him out on turn 5 if possible. It's late in the game and people are typically not happy to see him hit the board. Sometimes I win as soon as they see him.) Super Skrull (He is great against Living Legend, Iron Man and a few others. Definitely a turn 5, 6, or 7 play.) Wong (For obvious reasons.) Absorbing Man (To copy Hazmat, Psylocke, or Iron Heart, if need be.) Sera (Doing her thang, as well.) Odin (To finish things off in a grand finale firework show of misery.) I have tried subbing things like Silver Surfer and Wolfsbane, but I feel like this version doesn't need them. Please try it amd let me know what you think. I really believe that it is a great deck for the masses! 🤘🐵 🤘🐵 🤘🐵

Excellent video here sir, thank you very much for this one (and for all your great content - your viewpoint is unique and most helpful for players like myself who tend to be competitive but aren't giant whales or content creators). A decklist that I think is really good and very accessible is Patriot (with Brood/Ultron and Wasp for tokens and Wave/Mystique/Onslaught for combo). Keep up the excellent work man, it's really appreciated.

I hit infinite every season playing bast bounce, I play it with 2 series 4 and 2 series 5 cards but you can easily cut even that number down and remain effective. it’s probably not the best deck to recommend to new players because it can be complicated or confusing, but it’s a great testament to the fact that there’s plenty of depth available to free-to-play players if they want it. you don’t have to shuri red skull taskmaster your way to infinite if you don’t want to

I've been consistently a top 2000 player since January, mostly playing these classic decks with small variations (for example, including Scarlet Witch in Destroy and Shuri-Sauron to counter greedy Magik decks). People always ask what's the best deck to climb ladder -- the best deck is the one you know best, so you can recognize your good hands and snap early, and know when you have to retreat when the odds aren't in your favour.

When I first started playing back in early 2023 I struggled until I made a turn 6 hit monkey deck. 1sunspot, 1antman, 1kittypride, 1nebula, 1rocketracoon, 1squirrelgirl, 2angela, 3bishop, 3hitmonkey, 4kazar, 5bluemarvel. You play sunspot and nebula and kittypride from the start, try to synergize kittypride with angela and bishop. Turn 4 try to get kazar down but if you don't sunspot slurps up the 4 energy, turn 5 try get to blue marvel down if no then see sunspot. Then on turn 6 you spam the board with hitmonkey, and three 1cost usually antman, squirrel girl, and rocket(sub in titania for rocket, maybe throw in bast if you have him). I just got back into snap a week ago and even with the nerfs to hit monkey, angela, and kittypride I cruised from level 15 to level 73 vibranium in 2 days using the same exact deck from a year half ago (I could go further but I got distracted by conquest, deadpool diner, and alliance bounties). You can add in invisible woman to get hit monkey on the board before turn 6 so you can throw down more than 3 other cards on turn 6 (hm modifer doesn't start until he's revealed) boosting hm to even higher levels. It works against destroy killmonger decks usually if you pay attention to who reveals 1st on turn 6. Nobody expects hitmonkey t6. At minimum he becomes a 3/9 card, squirrel girl utility helps u get the antman 1/5 and rocket/titania 1/5 all on turn 6 so a 9+4+5+5= 23 pt swing on t6 Then throw in the sunspot, nebula, kittypride, angela, bishop that you've been cultivating from the beginning and it dominates. From 15 to 73 I probably went 80% or higher winrate. By far the best econ deck I played (I don't think I even had sunspot, nebula, or kittypride when I firsts started playing it, only requirement is hitmonkey).

I won't defend SD but also won't hate them for their choices on monetization. I don't think that there's a significant grupo of people who owns every MTG card. Sure, it is easier to rotate your physical collection of cards, but having everything for free shouldn't be a necessity.
