Update - Galactus has been adjusted with the June 2023 Patch Notes. You can see the changes below:
Old stats - 6/2 On Reveal: If this is your only card here, destroy all other locations.
New stats - 6/7 On Reveal: If you’re winning this location and this is your only card here, destroy all other locations.
Galactus is one of the most popular villains in the entire Marvel Universe. Naturally, when this iconic character came to the world of Marvel Snap, fans were eager to try him out. You may be wondering why such a powerful character has relatively mediocre stats. I mean, six energy for only three power? What is that about?! This is because Galactus has the monstrously overpowered ability to destroy the other two locations if he is the only card at the location he is placed.
To anyone with even a little Marvel Snap knowledge, you will know that very rarely will three power win you a location. Therefore, it becomes important to know how to use Galactus effectively, as well as which cards are best to support him. So, if you want to reach Infinite rank, here are the best Galactus decks you can use in Marvel Snap!

Best Galactus Decks In Marvel Snap
Galactus is a workaround card and requires you to play your entire deck to support his effect. This is not a card you can just slot into your Ka-Zar Zoo deck and expect to function at even half-effectiveness. Because of this, many pool 3 and pool 4, and even other pool 5 cards are not only suggested to be run in a Galactus deck but are more often than not required. That being said, if you have access to these cards, Galactus decks are some of the most powerful combo decks in the entire game. Here are a few deck lists you can try out.
Galactus + Knull Deck
Galactus destroys every other location, along with the cards there. So, naturally, a card like Knull works great with Galactus. You can also slot in other cards like Death for even more overkill. Wave is all but required to play this deck, as cheating out Galactus on turn four ensures you have two remaining turns to power up the last remaining location and win the game.
Galactus + Knull Deck List:
Galactus Goblin Deck
You may not need to power up your own location after activating Galactus' effect. You can always make the opponent's final location unplayable as well. By playing cards that fly over to your opponent's side of the field and activate negative effects, you can ensure Galactus and your proceeding follow-ups can win the location.
Galactus Goblin Deck List:
- Yondu
- Psylocke
- Wolverine
- Wave
- Green Goblin
- Killmonger
- Electro
- Hobgoblin
- America Chavez
- Galactus
- Death
Galactus Meta
This is a deck that utilizes a good range of base cards to ensure you can win with or without Galactus. For example, in our previous suggestions, cards like Knull, although powerful, can really only reach their full potential in a Galactus deck. This deck will ensure you can at least win some games, even if the master of the Universe is sitting at the bottom of your deck.
Galactus Meta Deck List:
- Sunspot
- Scorpion
- Lizard
- Electro
- Wave
- Maximus
- Shang-Chi
- Leech
- Doctor Octopus
- America Chavez
- Galactus
- Death
And these are the best Galactus decks you can use in Marvel Snap!
