Sandman feels really strong at 7 power, I snagged an infinity ticket playing him along with Doom, Leader and the super secret tech card, post-nerf Alioth. It's obviously not as strong as it was before, but it gives outs to some of Sandman's biggest weaknesses such as Hela and Tribunal, and sometimes it's just enough power to flip a lane. I also think that Cull Obsidian feels really good with Nightcrawler and Baron Zemo, who very often pulls a 1-cost from the opponent's deck. Very fun deck!
Shout out to Alex for making these decks. I just finished up my first infinity conquest march to victory using the first iteration he previewed, the one without Leader. Sandman really punishes a lot of decks right now so snuck in.
I am no deck builder and I’m pretty dumb at creating them, but after the patch I rly wanted to play sandman so I build a deck really similar to urs and after testing it I know it was capable of becoming a potential meta contender. I really appreciate the fact that someone put this deck on the spotlight and u also improved my build that still includes cards like mr fantastic. The only change I would make to ur build is adding cap cause I think she really helps u putting pressure on the opponent
I'm not exactly high infinite, around 20k, but I climbed around 10k the last week using a version of the Sandy Power deck. Replacing Jeff, Zemo, Aero and Red Hulk with Jessica Jones, Mr Fantastic, Alioth and the real MVP of the deck, Leader. He is a soul crusher against most decks if you build enough of a lead into your Sandman, also just caused some hilarious pop-offs like using my opps' own Shang-Chi to destroy their Knull.
I usually stop once I hit infinite focus on conquest think u fell to like 30k in infinite last I looked. This deck got me an infinity ticket seeing alot of hazmat/surfer and tribunal decks there
Dude, I've been playing Sandman/Leader so much this month, it's soooo fun. This is the list I cooked up with him: Nebula Spider-Ham Iceman Medusa Jeff Hope Summers Baron Zemo Ms. Marvel Legion (Real MVP against a lot of these Magik based combo decks) Sandman Leader Red Hulk
The issue I always find with sandman decks, the ramp in particular, is that there is little counter play. And if you don't draw sandman you have little to answer for most decks.
They should change crossbones text to "Can not play at a location your loosing" or give him more power than Cull since his text is way easier to work around but I'm still just happy they buffed crossbones in some way lol
Classic Marvel Snap experience xdd Don't worry, there are many lower tier decks that work very well, you just need to be patient and you'll get the cards you want ~
The two games you showed w/ the ramp deck didn't play Sandman at all. I played a Sandman/Corvus/Hela deck almost to infinite this month pre-patch, but I'm having trouble seeing how Sandman is better in that deck now. He seems way worse now that you can't play him on 4 and still impact turn 6.
After the sandman nerf he feels like a way better curve card 8n the sense that he has more power now so he feels better to play. But sandman is worse in electro now
I have sandman in my leader ramp deck, which made me rocket up ladder 85 to 100. PS ladder sucks after reaching 100 all you play against are Agatha decks.
Red hulk has to be nerfed lol and that’s from someone who got him on the first key pull the other week , he could be a 6-10 +3 power and still be as strong as evo hulk
I agree. It’s a brain dead card that’s made other strong decks even stronger. It’s so broken that you can put it into any deck and it will perform better. I’m not loving the direction this games going. Players should be encouraged to craft unique decks and play cards that require them to actually think about their plays, not just slam brain dead cards and abuse broken combos like Hela.
lol day dreaming sandman at work no Alex… how yall got time for all this stuff it insane I was shocked to find out a lot of yall have day jobs like that. Think cozy said he did 2 on one of those podcast
Blah blah blah.....money.....blah blah blah pixel art ..... Thanks Alex but 2nd dinner is too greedy to combat my excitement for new decks. The game needs to change. Zoo the whales.
i really wish they’d touch on rescue with the power scaling of people like crossbones and cull and even shang chi. series 3 has the worse cards for some reason 🫤
Alex dreaming about sandman during teaching is hilarious
😂that’s a sign he should follow his passion to be full time content creator
Man, I really hate how everyone said to skip Gladiator during his spotlight week and now he's used in a lot of decks..
I think it’s mainly because Maximus used to be a good alternative, but then he got changed, plus, Gladiator got buffed
That was his first week he def aged better later. That’s when I pulled him
Yes I was the same with Nico on her launch.
In the same boat, I skipped gladiator, but felt like I needed to drop the tokens on him, happy I did.
Don't blame others for your fault
I'm experimenting with a deck that has sandman with jean grey. So on turn 6, theyre forced to play one card in a specific location 😅
My man Regis gets mentioned and my day is brighter ❤
“ 3:37 I wanted to play with the fancy lizard okay????” Was not on my Alex quotes bingo card. 👀
That’s a euphemism if I’ve ever heard one.

Yeah I've been using this and focusing on priority with Alioth/ Leader. No red hulk here but i stole a few! The new Good Cards deck
Alex Coccia = Emotional Damage 🎉
I've always wondered if your students like to talk about marvel snap with you, or if they even know that you make these videos
Dude, I've been playing Sandman/Leader so much this month, it's soooo fun. This is the list I cooked up with him:
Nebula
Spider-Ham
Iceman
Medusa
Jeff
Hope Summers
Baron Zemo
Ms. Marvel
Legion (Real MVP against a lot of these Magik based combo decks)
Sandman
Leader
Red Hulk
Love the ham inclusion. Use him in my good cards sandman deck as well and he crushes when you need him to and is reliable info at his worst
The issue I always find with sandman decks, the ramp in particular, is that there is little counter play. And if you don't draw sandman you have little to answer for most decks.
Im playing a variation of the power sandman deck that runs storm instead of zemo to try and win a lane early
“Students”??? You’re a teacher?! Your students are so lucky
Never been much of a sandman user but after the nerf it feels way better to play on tempo and is a great tech card
Good God sir. I don't have baron z but I replaced it with armor poof it's victory over load right now. Thanks you and sand man sir 😁
They should change crossbones text to "Can not play at a location your loosing" or give him more power than Cull since his text is way easier to work around but I'm still just happy they buffed crossbones in some way lol
I got high evo from the spotlight cache and it’s been so fun to learn and play for the first time
Sandman isn't just back, he's here to give us all a SAND-tastic time in Marvel Snap!
17:22 True snapper right here
nice. im only missing 7 cards
Lol
Welcome. We got Shit overpriced bundles and tons of RNG. Don't forget to grab a spotlight Key to get yourself a good ol 1,000 tokens 🤡

Mail bag question: you have a day job (does Cozy?), what is nore important? Day job or streaming?
i really like the idea of mr fantastic + crossbones, good cook mr coccia!
Thanks for posting Alex. I notice your splash screen font looks like Cozy’s. I miss your original font like a month ago.
For a Sandman video it felt a lot more like a red hulk video
After the sandman nerf he feels like a way better curve card 8n the sense that he has more power now so he feels better to play. But sandman is worse in electro now
I also want a teacher daydreaming about sandman :p
any good substitute for jeff and red hulk?
I need to confess something. I bought the fancy lizard avatar with actual gold.....
This is why I keep sending this deck all over the game
Thanks for the video and the decks.
"Damn, I gotta put PANTS on!" - Alex Coccia, 2024
when thanos gets "spider-hamed" he turns into 6/10 pig then you play Mobius M. , it reduces the cost to 0/10 that normal or its a bug?
Works as intended for the moment, its an odd choice
I want thay fancy lizard.
Amazing deck!!
I have sandman in my leader ramp deck, which made me rocket up ladder 85 to 100. PS ladder sucks after reaching 100 all you play against are Agatha decks.
Whats your deck like?
Wait, what ego made a play that made since. I mean, last turn, so didn't matter, but actually playing Mystique after Sera.
is baron zemo a place holder or a must have?
I really think Spiderman/Polaris are better than zemo. Too many Destroy decks nowadays.
Chibi lizard, best Lizard!
Proud to be one of the first! Thanks for the great deck, and keep at it Alex!
SANDY CHEEKS!!
Hey Alex, Do you find the game as fun as it used to be?
Corvus Glaive - On Reveal: Discard Hela
Much love Senpai
Dude sandman is winning games!
If you didn't play Sandman and then say "Sand it!", you missed an opportunity! :)
Commenting for the algorithm.
Is there a baron zemo replacement?
I think imma try Polaris or Maximus
wave
Replacement for Red Hulk?
muh gento 🎩
Red hulk has to be nerfed lol and that’s from someone who got him on the first key pull the other week , he could be a 6-10 +3 power and still be as strong as evo hulk

For those of you that are sandman un-enjoyers such as myself. War machine says no to Sandy boi. You’re welcome.
Ego should not exist in conquest..... I mean Ego should not exist, but it REALLY shouldn't be allowed in conquest
Damn you. I just played a sandman deck and its all your fault
lol day dreaming sandman at work no Alex… how yall got time for all this stuff it insane I was shocked to find out a lot of yall have day jobs like that. Think cozy said he did 2 on one of those podcast
You still play dota 2 lol
No skill Red Hulk 🙄
Blah blah blah.....money.....blah blah blah pixel art ..... Thanks Alex but 2nd dinner is too greedy to combat my excitement for new decks. The game needs to change. Zoo the whales.
Boo. Stop promoting sandman. He’s toxic for the game.
all deck very sucks ......... =\
i really wish they’d touch on rescue with the power scaling of people like crossbones and cull and even shang chi. series 3 has the worse cards for some reason 🫤
They are free that's why lol jk
