The unfortunately one-and-done insidious villain that Christian Bale played in the Marvel Cinematic Universe arrives in Marvel Snap this week. That's right, Gorr the God Butcher is here to cut done your opponents, and hopefully he sticks around longer than he did in the MCU.
Gorr is a 6 cost -1 power card with an ability that reads: Ongoing: +2 Power for EACH On Reveal card in play.
Su efecto es bastante sencillo. For every On Reveal card on either your side or your opponent's side of the board, Gorr gets +2 power. The On Reveal cards do not have to activate (being blocked by Cosmo, for example) for Gorr to gain power. They simply need to be on the board somewhere.
That means you can build up a ton of On Reveal cards on your side of the board before dropping him almost like a Gilgamesh effect.
As each player can have 12 cards placed on the board, Gorr has a potential power output of 45 power (minus himself and his -1 power).
Reaching those heights will be exceedingly rare if not impossible; however, Gorr becomes a pretty good card if there's somewhere between 8 to 10 On Reveal cards played.
Unless you put him in a deck that makes use of his unique statline and ability, that is.
While I do think Gorr will fit into more than just a Mister Negative list, I do think he fits best there. There's two different styles of Mister Negative: one with The Living Tribunal and one without. I think Gorr fits more into list without The Living Tribunal, like the one below, though he'd find a place there too:

This list is actually fairly cheap to make, as the only necessary Series 5 card is Sage. If you don't have Cassandra Nova, consider swapping her out for Magik to extend the game a little bit and allow you to set up your combo.
Tienes dos condiciones ganadoras con este mazo: golpea a Mister Negativo en el turno 3 con la ayuda de Psylocke o Ravonna Renslayer y luego dibuja un montón de 0 cartas de costo, especialmente Iron Man y Mystique. Wong helps Sage and Cassandra Nova scale massively, which then allows Taskmaster to copy that high power in another lane.
Often, you'll be waiting until the final turn to drop a flurry of cards and to steal away victory as your opponent tries to stop you. You'll know if you have a shot if you have a way to cheat out Mister Negative early; if you don't, it's an uphill battle to win.
Gorr comes in here as an additional 0 cost card to drop somewhere and surprise your opponent. Esta lista tiene 8 en las cartas de revelación para llevarlo a 15 poder, aunque probablemente no las jugarás todas y tendrás que confiar en algunas cartas del lado de tu oponente para llevar a Gorr al poder.
From there, I think Gorr isn't a bad pick for an On Reveal style deck with his buddies Thor and Beta Ray Bill, feat. Duendecito:

Si no tienes Rey Eitri y Frigga, considere intercambiar en Zabu y Jubilee (que en realidad podría ser mejor pero no como temático asgardiano). Pixie is integral to this deck, though do keep in mind she doesn't work with Thor and Beta Ray Bill's weapons.
El objetivo con este mazo es ganar un carril con Thor o Beta Ray Bill, provocando sus martillos más de una vez en bicicleta con LockJaw y reconstruyéndolos con King Eitri o Jane Foster o dejando caer a Odin sobre ellos. Pixie can swap the high cost of cards like Doctor Doom with that of Wasp, pretty much winning you the game right away.
With the two hammers, this deck has 9 On Reveal cards with Gorr with extra ways to cheat him out through Lockjaw and Pixie. Es probable que desee jugar a Odin o al Doctor Doom en la curva 6, pero a veces Gorr puede proporcionar ese pico sorpresa de poder cuando se cae junto a los Hammers.
Creo que Gorr encontrará su lugar en el meta, pero en este momento creo que es mejor esperar unos días para ver si una lista más consistente que Mister negativa lo presenta prominentemente, ya que esta última lista con Thor y Beta Ray Bill no es particularmente fuerte. I personally am waiting on him and leaning towards skipping him to save my keys for the next set of cards.
