This guide explores optimal deck builds, effective gameplay strategies, counters, and whether Iron Patriot is worth the investment.
The Best Deck for Iron Patriot
This deck leverages Iron Patriot's synergy with the classic card-generation archetype, similar to Devil Dino strategies. The core consists of Iron Patriot, Devil Dino, and Victoria Hand, supported by: Sentinel, Quinjet, Valentina, Mirage, Frigga, Mobius M. Mobius, Moon Girl, Agent Coulson, and Kate Bishop.
| Card | Cost | Power |
|---|---|---|
| Iron Patriot | 2 | 3 |
| Devil Dino | 5 | 3 |
| Victoria Hand | 2 | 3 |
| Mobius M. Mobius | 3 | 3 |
| Sentinel | 2 | 3 |
| Quinjet | 1 | 2 |
| Moon Girl | 4 | 5 |
| Valentina | 2 | 3 |

Iron Patriot Deck Synergies
- Iron Patriot: Adds a discounted high-cost card, fueling the core strategy.
- Card Generation: Valentina, Sentinel, Mirage, Agent Coulson, Moon Girl, and Kate Bishop generate cards, triggering Victoria Hand's ability.
- Cost Reduction: Quinjet further discounts generated cards.
- Duplication & Copying: Frigga duplicates a card, amplifying effects like Iron Patriot's discount.
- Cost Protection: Mobius M. Mobius prevents opponent cost manipulation.
- Win Condition: Devil Dino utilizes the generated cards for powerful buffs.
How to Play Iron Patriot Effectively
- Strategic Placement: Play Iron Patriot in a lane your opponent is unlikely to contest early to maximize the discount. Combos like Ebony Maw + War Machine can secure the lane, but risk over-commitment.
- Hand Management: Carefully manage hand size to accommodate generated cards. Avoid playing generators like Agent Coulson with a full hand.
- Maximize Duplication: Use duplication effects like Moon Girl after benefiting from cost reduction for maximum value.
How to Counter Iron Patriot
Counter Iron Patriot by disrupting energy and hand space:
- Cost Manipulation: US Agent, Cosmo, Iceman, Wave, Sandman, and Shadow King.
- Hand Clogging: Green Goblin and Hobgoblin (Junk archetype).
- Buff Removal: Valkyrie (targets Victoria Hand).
Is Iron Patriot Worth It?
Iron Patriot is a valuable addition for competitive players, but doesn't fundamentally change the meta. While strong, it doesn't justify purchasing the premium pass for F2P players. Victoria Hand offers similar card-generation potential without relying on Iron Patriot.
