Strategy
Living Lightning is a flying beater with built-in haste that turns your team into a more dangerous offense each turn. Every combat, you pump another creature and give it haste—think of him as a lord who keeps the pressure mounting. Your gameplan revolves around attacking aggressively while turning sideways creatures into threats. You win by swinging out with an ever-growing army of hasty, pumped attackers, potentially doubling damage with equipment like Mjölnir or using Marvel hero synergies to protect your flyers and keep the beats coming.
The deck thrives on cheap red creatures and Equipment that synergize with repeated attacks. Cards like Vibranium Strike Gauntlets and Hawkeye's Bow turn your team into evasive threats while drawing cards, and Plan enchantments that trigger on creature entry or combat give you incremental value on the side. Living Lightning himself is just the engine—pack the deck with hasty creatures, Equipment that reward attacking, and mana acceleration so you're constantly deploying threats.
