Iron Patriot's Mechanics

Iron Patriot is a 2-cost, 3-power card with the ability: "On Reveal: Add a random 4, 5, or 6-Cost card to your hand. If you're winning here after the next turn, give it -4 Cost."

This straightforward effect provides a random high-cost card. If you control the location after your next turn, that card's cost is significantly reduced (4-cost becomes 0, 5-cost becomes 1, 6-cost becomes 2). This can lead to game-winning plays, particularly with cards like Doctor Doom. However, committing to Iron Patriot's lane is crucial for this effect. Synergies exist with cards like Juggernaut, Negasonic Teenage Warhead, and Rocket Raccoon & Groot.

Best Iron Patriot Decks

Iron Patriot's versatility allows inclusion in various decks, excelling in Wiccan-style and Devil Dinosaur hand-generation strategies.

Wiccan-Style Deck:

• Kitty Pryde
• Zabu
• Hydra Bob
• Psylocke
• Iron Patriot
• U.S. Agent
• Rocket Raccoon & Groot
• Copycat
• Galactus
• Daughter of Galactus
• Wiccan
• Legion
• Alioth

(Replace Hydra Bob, U.S. Agent, or Rocket Raccoon & Groot with high-power alternatives if needed. Wiccan and Alioth are essential.)

This deck leverages Wiccan's energy generation and Galactus's buffs to Kitty Pryde, countering Doom 2099's prevalence. Strategic placement of Iron Patriot (e.g., the unrevealed far-right lane) maximizes his effect. U.S. Agent and Rocket Raccoon & Groot control lanes while maximizing turn 5 and 6 energy for powerful plays.

Devil Dinosaur Deck:

• Maria Hill
• Quinjet
• Hydra Bob
• Hawkeye & Kate Bishop
• Iron Patriot
• Sentinel
• Victoria Hand
• Mystique
• Agent Coulson
• Shang-Chi
• Wiccan
• Devil Dinosaur

(Replace Hydra Bob with a 1-cost alternative like Nebula if necessary. Kate Bishop and Wiccan are essential.)

This nostalgic deck utilizes Iron Patriot with Victoria Hand for powerful late-game plays. The combination of Devil Dinosaur, Mystique, and Agent Coulson remains potent, while Sentinel's cost reduction with Victoria Hand creates high-power plays.

Is Iron Patriot Worth Buying the Season Pass?

Iron Patriot is a valuable addition, especially for hand-generation strategies. While not game-breaking, his versatility makes him a worthwhile acquisition for dedicated players. The overall value of the Season Pass, including Iron Patriot and other rewards, justifies the $9.99 USD cost.
