Needless to say, cards are an important feature in a card battler such as Marvel Snap. But cards are only as good as their abilities allow them. Abilities, or keywords in other card games, are special effects that cards possess that will either give you an advantage or disadvantage your opponents.

In this guide, we'll be explaining all of the abilities in Marvel Snap.

Marvel Snap Abilities Explained

There are currently five abilities in Marvel Snap. These abilities generally interact with cards, decks, or locations. While there is only a limited pool of abilities, the detailed effects that follow them in the card text give each card a unique impact on the game.

Here are all the abilities and a description of what they do:
