Panther Power Loop

The other day my sister wanted to play a game of champions with me and wanted to use Stinger with black widow so I built the deck and when we played the game I noticed the power of 0 cost events Black Panther and Rapid Response so after the game I built a deck centered on it. Welcome to the Panther Power Loop

The beginning

One of widows issues is she has so much to put in play and not many resources so we use Enhanced Physique to help and pay Blades kicker. other than panther the allies are fairly cheap so you can keep them in hand without worry. Mulligan and use events like Last Stand,Teamwork,"You Got This!" and Noble Sacrifice for panther to fish up.

The Panther

use suit up early to get Black Panther in play and Clarity of Purpose on him to help your economy. In the early game panther is mostly used to Call for Aid to get cheap allies in hand and sacrifice the very same allies with Noble Sacrifice for healing "You Got This!" for a power boost or Last Stand for a strong attack. He can also aid iron lad for free while also being able to generate a resource.

The Power

However In the mid to late game panther will start to target himself with the previously mentioned Last Stand because with Rapid Response,Practiced Plan,Avengers Assemble!,Mighty Avengers and Last Stand a total of 10 damage can happen from panthers activation and widow maker alone not even counting Black Widow her self

The Loop

We can get the most use from panther with Teamwork providing more power for free and using Clarity of Purpose to get panther down to 1 or 2 health because it allows recursion even after usage of Last Stand because it says after the attack resolves which best of my knowledge means after consequential damage meaning if he’s defeated by that he is not discarded and is now viable to be targeted by Rapid Response dealing up to 2 damage from just being revived then since he can fish up an event he can begin the cycle again. We also have Make the Call in the situation he gets defeated without Rapid Response in play.

Final thoughts

This deck has powerful synergies and is also over 48 cards if anyone wants to make a more streamlined version with less cards feel free but I like this deck for its high reward level without really even counting the heroes basic activations as a part of the damage and threat removal of the deck.
