Remember these notes when playing Silver Sable:
How to Counter Silver Sable
Silver Sable’s main counter is Cosmo, butLuke Cage and Shadow Kingalso serve as effective counterplays. While Luke Cage can’t stop Silver Sable’s effect directly, he can mitigate the damage from toxic synergies often used in Silver Sable decks. Shadow King is another strong option, as he can reset card stats to their original values.
A more aggressive counter is Killmonger. As a one-cost card, Silver Sable can be destroyed immediately by Killmonger. Although this won’t prevent the damage caused by Silver Sable, it will eliminate her +2 buff.
Is Silver Sable Worth It?
Silver Sable is another skippable card inMarvel Snap’s roster. While she synergizes well with toxic and bounce archetypes, it’s not enough to justify her cost. Additionally, Silver Sable’s two-power damage is often negligible, as opponents can easily avoid playing the inflicted card or simply buff it back with tech or buff cards.
Alexander Coccia, a prominentMarvel Snapcreator, expressed that his initial impressions of Silver Sable were less favorable compared to Symbiote Spider-Man. He suggested that Symbiote Spider-Man is likely to have more versatile synergies, while Silver Sable might be limited to a single effective strategy.
