Doctor Octopus is one of the most beloved Marvel villains of all time. Doctor Octopus is incredibly strong and capable of wreaking destruction wherever he goes on the big screen. However, Doctor Octopus in Marvel Snap is much more of a disruption card as opposed to a game-winning threat.
On Reveal, Doctor Octopus will pull random cards from your opponent's hand in order to fill the same location. This is a great disruption tool, as you can force late-game cards like Silver Surfer onto the board early. Additionally, by filling a location, you have a much better idea as to how much power you need to win there.
So, if you are ready to start using Doctor Octopus in Marvel Snap, you've come to the right place. This article will cover the best Doctor Octopus decks in Marvel Snap to help you reach Infinite! We will break down deck lists, strategies, and more.

Best Doctor Octopus Decks In Marvel Snap
The best Doctor Octopus decks in Marvel Snap are those that can capitalize on filling an opponent's location with cards. While you could get lucky and pull a bunch of low-cost cards, leaving Doc Oc to win the location by himself, it is far likelier you pull Giganto, She-Hulk, The Infinaut, and Shang-Chi. In such a case, Doctor Octopus essentially wins the game for your opponent. Therefore, you need to have a way to counter any cards that Doctor Octopus manages to pull.
Galactus Deck
Doctor Octopus sees the most play in Galactus decks. Because you plan to blow up two locations with Galactus anyway, it makes no difference what cards Doctor Octopus pulls with his ability. Doctor Octopus is great at thinning your opponent's hand, leaving them with very little to play after Galactus blows up two-thirds of the board.
Galactus Deck List:
- Yondu
- Psylocke
- Cloak
- Lizard
- Electro
- Shuri
- Shang-Chi
- Kang / Leech
- Doctor Octopus
- Galactus
- Knull
- Death
Junk Deck
Junk decks typically operate by filling your opponent's board with useless cards. By forcing your opponent to play in certain locations, it becomes much easier to lock them out of certain game plans or counter them with tech cards. Use cards like Debrii, Viper, and Green Goblin to ruin your opponent's plan. Feel free to also add in other cards, such as Black Widow or a Luke Cage and Hazmat combination.
Junk Deck List:
- The Hood
- Iceman
- Daredevil
- Viper
- Green Goblin
- Debrii
- Juggernaut
- Shang-Chi
- Spider-Man
- Hobgoblin
- Professor X
- Doctor Octopus
