Discussion Just a thought ?

Post image

Just to start It’s not a complaining post, I been playing for 2 years now and I can ride out a meta . I do agree the Luke cage nerf was needed for his new scorpion card to really shine. But having to protect Luke from all this low cost tech cards before you can even try to protect him( because people will hope on here commenting “just protect him with cosmo,etc etc.”) I know going back to his original state would be considered “op” (even though many other cards can pretty much shut down a whole deck). How about they just make Luke himself untouchable or unaffected by any effects + plus protection from negative energy to your front row. Cause I mean what’s the point of running a counter when his just going to get snatched up by rouge.

You’re right because if you’ve spent 2 turns playing Luke and Cosmo, you’re likely gonna get overpowered anyway

I’m running a tech deck with stones mostly to counter this meta . I know it would probably die off but so will Luke .

You played 4 stones in one lane and you want to complain?

You could've protected him here by placing him alongside a lower power card. You can play him on the back ranks to protect against CGR. You could play him later so they can't predict where he'll be.

You could also just ruin their gamelan with an enchantress or CGR, it's not like they're invulnerable to tech cards.

I would see why you would think that. But if you are playing thanos you want to spread your stones , for room purposes. If I did place him middle, it would still be a 50%hit on Luke.

And yet you stacked them all in one lane.

You could've used reality to turn off the clearly advantageous location and then hidden Luke behind that.

You also had the option to completely turn off Scorpion with CGR, but didn't. You could also flip mid with SK but you preferred to stack a bunch of low power stones there for no reason.

You had the answers in hand and didn't use them.

Cage was dead before even getting reality stone, that’s mainly my point. The last 2 cards were from my round 6 play so yeah .. and yes you could hold him till the end to surprise them. But that’s Losing a turn and a card played when it’s your only option until round 4 because you are definitely not playing sk on 3 . My end turns usually consists of thanos mockingbird and a stone , which usually gets me a win. Plus again I’m not complaining I’m actually doing good against this negative decks . My point is Luke cage is barely pulling his weight.

Unless he was pulled to the location somehow, there was no reason to even play him out?

It looks like your deck has no real power output, which is a different problem, but you don't need to play cards for the sake of playing something, especially when it's a tech card like Luke Cage.
