I think the fact that the card exists is very good. There needs to be an obvious (if not efficient) answer to everything.
I also think that I see where Lurifax is coming from: Counter decks are all over the place, I need to dedicate some part of my deck to hate on them.
I too am frustrated by the lack of effectiveness of the card. I think the problem is, that for the card to be effective, you have to drop it ASAP. However, since the card costs 2 and doesn't provide income, it's a huge gamble to deploy it early. 2 gold and a card for 1 influence is a HORRIBLE play. No competetive deck plays the 1 cost +1 income 1 influence sites. This one is much worse if the special is dead.
Right now, instead of building the deck you want and then dedicating a few slots to deal with counter decks, you have to build a deck that can survive counters and then modify towards what you really want.
I am not saying this is a bad thing; we also have to build our decks to be able to survive rushes instead of just devoting a slot for the antirush card.
All this said, I think the card could use +1 income.
