Much like Hawkeye before him with Hawkeye Kate Bishop, Captain America is getting outshined by his successor, Sam Wilson Captain America, who’s headlining the February 2025 *Marvel Snap* season. Here are the best Sam Wilson Captain America decks in *Marvel Snap*.
Sam Wilson Captain America is a dynamic 2-cost, 3-power card that adds a layer of strategy to *Marvel Snap*. His ability reads: "Game Start: Add Cap’s Shield to a random location. Ongoing: You can move Cap’s Shield." Cap’s Shield is a 1-cost, 1-power card with the ability: "Ongoing: This can’t be destroyed. Give your Cap +2 Power when this moves to Cap’s location."
The wording of Cap’s Shield is designed to be versatile, boosting both Sam Wilson and Steve Rogers versions of Captain America by 2 power each time it lands in their lane. This allows Sam Wilson to scale rapidly, potentially reaching 7 power early in the game.
Sam Wilson synergizes well with 1-cost cards, move cards, and Ongoing decks, making him a versatile addition to many strategies. He can also evade the disruptive effects of Killmonger. However, cards like Red Guardian and Shadow King can counter him by removing his buffs or negating his power boosts.
Sam Wilson Captain America fits seamlessly into various deck archetypes, particularly enhancing the already dominant Wiccan list and the versatile Ongoing Zoo build. Here's a powerful Wiccan deck featuring Sam Wilson:

This deck is heavy on Series 5 cards, including Fenris Wolf, Hawkeye Kate Bishop, Iron Patriot, Red Guardian, Rocket Raccoon and Groot, Wiccan, and Alioth. If you're missing key cards like Fenris Wolf, Wiccan, or Alioth, you might want to skip this deck. For those with these cards, you can substitute Red Guardian and Rocket Raccoon and Groot with other 3-cost cards like Cosmo, Mobius M. Mobius, or even Galacta Daughter of Galactus.
Playing this deck requires patience, as it's designed to counter your opponent's moves after activating Wiccan. Managing priority in the final turn is crucial; dropping it can allow you to hit multiple cards with Enchantress or Shang-Chi, while maintaining it lets you use Alioth to disrupt your opponent's strategy.
Sam Wilson enhances this deck by providing a strong 2-cost card that can scale quickly while offering flexibility through lane control with Cap’s Shield.
For those interested in Zoo-style decks, consider adding Sam Wilson to a Spectrum Zoo list like this one:

This deck includes Series 5 cards such as Hawkeye Kate Bishop, Marvel Boy, Caiera, and Gilgamesh, with Marvel Boy and Caiera being essential. You can swap in other Zoo-friendly cards like Nico Minoru, Cosmo, Gilgamesh, and Mockingbird if needed.
While Zoo decks have slightly fallen out of the meta, they remain competitive, especially with Marvel Boy and Squirrel Girl's synergy. Sam Wilson adds flexibility and allows Cap’s Shield to receive massive buffs from Kazar and Blue Marvel, further amplified by Spectrum, creating a formidable 5-power, 1-cost card that enhances both Sam Wilson and other Ongoing cards.
If you're a fan of Zoo-oriented decks, Sam Wilson Captain America is a worthwhile addition at the $9.99 season pass price. However, if Zoo decks aren't your style, there are numerous other strong 2-cost cards like Jeff, Iron Patriot, and Hawkeye Kate Bishop that can fill similar roles in meta decks. Given the high cost of keeping up with *Marvel Snap*, skipping Sam Wilson is understandable if you're not keen on spending more.
And those are the best Sam Wilson Captain America decks in *Marvel Snap*.
