That's easy to test, isn't it? Create a test game, backup before a battle where you are testing it, and redo the battle about half a dozen times. Since Luck is supposed to protect in 50% of cases you should have a fairly definitive result then.

Sure it is, but it's even easier to ask
I'll test it tomorrow if nobody knows

I'm about 99% certain that Luck protects from EVERYthing. Hit with a ritual on a Lucky commander? Luck helps. A couple of meteors fall on you? Luck helps. I don't think there's one single thing that Luck doesn't get its 50/50 chance on.

Luck protects from damage and Infernal Prison doesn't do any damage. I'm pretty sure that luck SHOULD protect from the items like Infernal Scythe that have "Banish to Inferno" as secondary effect as they cause damage but SHOULDN'T protect against the spells "Infernal prison" and "Claws of Kokytos".

My guess is that Ano is correct, luck does not protect from curse, horror mark, etc. It seems to just protect against damage.
