Synergy

Goliath in Marvel Snap works well with most Ongoing cards. These units can maximize its power output:

• Moonstone (Cost 4, Power: 6): Moonstone has an Ongoing ability that copies all the Ongoing abilities of the player's 1, 2, and 3 cost cards. This ability incentivises the player to run more Ongoing cards.
• Captain America: Captain's Ongoing ability grants +2 power to all friendly cards in its location.
• Blue Marvel (Cost: 5, Power: 3): Its Ongoing ability gives +1 energy to the player's other cards.
• Spectrum (Cost: 6, Power: 7): When revealed, gives the player's Ongoing cards +2 power.
• Onslaught (Cost: 6, Power: 8): Doubles all the Ongoing effects (from the player's cards) in its location.
• Mystique (Cost: 3, Power: 0): If the player's last card has an Ongoing effect, Mystique copies it.

Counters

Any enemy cards that can affect the player's Ongoing cards can counter Goliath:

• Enchantress (Cost: 4, Power: 5): This card shuts down all Ongoing effects when revealed.
• Shang-Chi (Cost: 4, Power: 3): When revealed, Shang-Chi destroys an enemy card with 10+ power in its location. If Goliath is deployed early, Shang-Chi can destroy it.
• Super Skrull (Cost: 4, Power: 2): Copies the effects of all enemy Ongoing cards.

Notably, the Shadow King's ability to reset all cards in the present to their original power does not work against Goliath. Since the latter has an ongoing ability, any lost power is recovered. Therefore, Shadow King cannot reset the power of the Marvel Snap Goliath card.
