The Best Deck for Black Swan

Black Swan works best in a bounce deck with Beast and Thanos. Create this setup by uniting the trio with the following cards: Bast, Falcon, Bishop, Iceman, Forge, Ka-Zar, Hit-Moneky, Blue Marvel, and The Hood.

Card	Cost	Power
Black Swan	3	5
Beast	2	2
Thanos	6	10
Bast	1	1
Falcon	2	3
Bishop	3	1
Hit-Monkey	3	2
Iceman	1	2
Forge	1	1
Blue Marvel	5	3
Ka-Zar	4	4
The Hood	1	-3

Here are the synergies of the deck:

Black Swan cheapens 1-Cost cards (Bast, Forge, Iceman, The Hood).
Beast and Falcon allow for multiple attacks with cheapened cards.
Ka-Zar and Blue Marvel buff the board.
Hit-Monkey and Bishop are passive buff gainers. (They grow as you play cards.)
Thanos is a 1-Cost provider and a win condition.

How to Play Black Swan

Play Black Swan on turn four or five while your hand is full of One-Cost cards. Enhance her effect with a Power booster like Blue Marvel or, if you’ve played her early, retrieve the One-Cost drops with Beast and Falcon for another round of attack.

Here are the best combos for Black Swan:

Turn three Black Swan and turn five Beast & Falcon: With this combo, you will have multiple Zero-Cost cards for a final round game-ender attack.
Turn four bounce, turn five Black Swan, turn six Blue Marvel: This sequence ensures you drop all your discounted and boosted cheap cards before the final round. And, on top of that, you get to increase their Power one last time with your Powerhouse Blue Marvel.
Infinity Stones and Black Swan: Bouncing and playing all these stones will turn Thanos into an undefeatable beast for your final turn drop.

How to Counter Black Swan

A deadly response to Black Swan is Mobius M. Mobius. If you drop him before her, she won't be able to reduce the cost of friendly cards, rendering her a nullified Five-Cost. However, as an On Reveal card affecting One-Cost options, other reliable counters for her include Cosmo and Killmonger.

Is Black Swan Worth It?

Black Swan is an excellent choice for bounce and destroy archetypes. Her flexible ability allows for a nice blend with One-Cost-reliant decks, making her one of the valuable Season Pass cards of recent updates. However, if you’re asking whether she’s worth the $10 Season Pass price, the answer is no. If you haven’t already opted into the pass, Black Swan won’t offer significant value to entice you.
