Well, perhaps not

Bullseye is a sadistic, murderous psychopath with a ruthless sense of purpose. His true name remains a mystery, possibly Benjamin Poindexter or Lester, or something similar. Like Hawkeye, he's "human," relying on natural talent rather than superhuman genes.

In the versatile world of Marvel Comics, Bullseye's "peak human" abilities allow him to turn everyday objects like throwing knives, pens, paperclips, or his signature razor playing cards into deadly weapons.

Despite his basic nature, Bullseye excels as a hired mercenary with an exceptional danger-to-dumb-costume ratio. He's notorious for killing Elektra and impersonating Hawkeye in the Dark Avengers, turning murder into a profitable business with his unmatched skill.

However, what does he do?

Bullseye's primary skill is flinging objects with uncanny precision. In SNAP, he uses your weakest cards (no more than 1-Cost) to deal -2 Power to your opponent's cards, hitting different targets with each card like a hat trick. This showcases his perfect aim and sadistic nature, and with the Activate ability, you can time your hand's discard perfectly.

Bullseye synergizes well with Discard strategies like Scorn or Swarm, ensuring your hand has eligible discards when you activate him. While Daken provides only one target, Bullseye can still support scalers like Morbius or Miek. His ability to discard multiple cards can double the impact of a MODOK/Swarm play on turn 5, supercharging your favorite living vampire.

However, be wary of Luke Cage, who can nullify Bullseye's threat, and Red Guardian, who can disrupt your carefully planned Discard turn. Plan carefully to maximize this marksman-mercenary's potential.

Bullseye Decks on Day One

Bullseye's most obvious synergy is with the classic Discard deck. His ability directly synergizes with Scorn and Swarm, enhancing an already potent Discard engine. Focusing on Swarm, I've included Collector, Victoria Hand, and Moonstone to capitalize on their synergy and benefit from Bullseye's potentially massive Discard turns.

Gambit is included not only for his thematic connection to Bullseye but also for his powerful effect that can turn games around.

Daken, often considered a cumbersome card, can be used in a deck focused on duplicating his effect for a win. Bullseye adds control and redundancy, allowing you to activate him at the end of your last turn to buff multiple copies of Daken and discard multiple copies of the Shard. This can add consistency to the combo without relying on Supergiant maneuvers with MODOK.

For those seeking a more extravagant approach, Bullseye can be the key to eliminating your opponent in the most absurd manner imaginable, embodying the true spirit of Bullseye.

Verdict

Bullseye may be more challenging to integrate into decks than initially thought, as SNAP players often struggle with the timing of the Activate ability. His effect is limited, requiring careful deck-building to maximize his potential. However, his flashy effect on a flashy character suggests significant contributions to Discard packages, especially those centered on Swarm and Scorn.
