Monkey.D.Luffy - OP14-013

Strategic Overview

Monkey.D.Luffy (OP14-013) is the primary consistency engine for the Red Supernova archetype. At 1-cost, he is one of the most efficient searchers in the game, digging 5 cards deep to find any Supernova piece (excluding himself). This ensures you hit your curve and find high-impact units like Eustass Kid or Basil Hawkins early in the game.

Beyond his search power, Luffy possesses a [When Attacking] debuff effect. While his base power is 0, he is designed to be used with the Trafalgar Law (OP14-001) Leader effect. By swapping a 5000 power base onto this Luffy, you turn your searcher into a credible threat that simultaneously weakens the opponent's board by -1000 power, facilitating easier K.O.s for your other attackers.

Key Strategic Synergies

• Trafalgar Law (OP14-001): Swapping stats onto this Luffy allows him to trigger his attack debuff while dealing damage, maximizing action economy.
• Eustass"Captain"Kid (OP14-014): Kid can play this Luffy for free from the hand, allowing for a search and a blocker setup in a single turn.
• Basil Hawkins (OP14-010): Luffy's -1000 power reduction helps bring characters into Hawkins' 3000-power K.O. range.
