- (1) Korg
- (2) Zabu
- (3) Mystique
- (4) Mister Negative, Darkhawk, Crystal, Iron Lad
- (5) Iron Man, Jane Foster
- (6) Arnim Zola, Knull, The Living Tribunal
Explainer
In terms of average cubes won per game at a high player rank (between 70-100+), Negative Tribunal is the best-performing Living Tribunal deck in Marvel Snap right now.
This deck primarily relies on Mister Negative’s ability to switch the cost and Power of all cards in its user’s deck. This deck offers a lot of versatility and can enable high-Power plays — exactly what’s required in a Living Tribunal deck in order to succeed.
Lockjaw Tribunal

Lockjaw Tribunal Decklist
- (0) Wasp
- (3) Lockjaw, Thor
- (4) Dracula, Jubilee
- (5) Jane Foster
- (6) The Living Tribunal, America Chavez, Orka, Magneto, Giganto, The Infinaut
Explainer
This is a fairly standard Lockjaw-type decklist that relies on using low-cost cards such as Wasp to bring out huge cards such as The Infinaut at times that would otherwise not be possible.
The Living Tribunal makes this a relatively difficult deck to counter, however, as the power will be spread out across three different locations if the player chooses to do so.
Like most Lockjaw decks, this one has a high-risk, high-reward strategy that depends heavily on luck. Also note that this deck has a lower game count of just 120 games played so far — mostly due to the fact that Living Tribunal was only just released.
Hela Tribunal

Hela Tribunal Decklist
- (2) Morbius, Invisible Woman
- (3) Lady Sif, Black Cat
- (4) Jubilee
- (5) Iron Man, M.O.D.O.K
- (6) Hela, The Living Tribunal, Giganto, The Infinaut, Death
Explainer
The Hela Tribunal deck capitalizes on the powerful combo of M.O.D.O.K. and Hela, with the former discarding all cards when played and the latter resurrecting all discarded cards. This combination is most effective when the cards are hidden due to Invisible Woman’s ability or when played on Dark Dimension.
This deck can potentially deliver big numbers across the board, but again relies largely on luck to draw this combo.
How to Counter the Best Living Tribunal Decks
Despite the high potential of The Living Tribunal decks, there are ways to counter them. One effective approach is removing the cards contributing the most to a player’s Power by using Enchantress or Rogue to eliminate any Ongoing abilities. Alternatively, Shang-Chi can destroy any card with 9 or more Power.
In terms of locations, The Bar With No Name can pose specific trouble to The Living Tribunal. This location can only be won by those with the lowest Power, implying that The Living Tribunal’s ability might lead to a loss there if played.
Playing The Living Tribunal in Marvel Snap brings an exciting, high-risk/high-reward dynamic to the game.
By strategically creating and countering decks centered around this powerful character, you can bring an extra layer of strategy to your matches.
Whether you’re building a Negative Tribunal, Lockjaw Tribunal, or Hela Tribunal deck, the game-changing ability of The Living Tribunal offers plenty of opportunities for epic Marvel Snap battles.
