Lizard is pretty much only played in Galactus nowadays because you're trying to get priority on turn 4 to play your Galactus without being countered by your opponent.

Sure it could have been a Sauron deck or something but 90% of the time I see Lizard or Yondu it's going to be Galactus.

The amount of tech I'm running depends on the decks I'm playing. But even without tech I can sometimes win difficult matchups. Galactus games are either you have the tech in hand on turn 3 (or 4 with priority) or you lose.

If you don't manage to get the counter to Galactus then on turn 5 they play Spider-Man and you lose because you have to skip turn 5 to get priority on turn 6 for a potential Shang-Chi or Enchantress. And now people are just running 8 power cards to get around that too so you can't even Shang-Chi to counter on turn 6 either because it's adaptable.

So yes, if I see Lizard on 2 and someone snaps I'm out.
