A-tier

A hard-hitting attack that deals 24 damage (32 upgraded) for 3 Energy and refunds 3 Energy on a killing blow. It shines in trash-mob fights thanks to the chain-kill potential.

In multi-enemy fights, killing one target refunds the cost and gives you a free next action. Upgraded to 32 damage, the roster of one-shot targets expands. Bosses rarely allow the refund trigger, so the main stage for this card is multi-enemy fights (elites and trash). The concept matches Sever, but as a straight Attack it is simpler to slot in.

• Combo: kill one enemy in a multi-target fight, recover 3 Energy, then pivot to the next target
• Use on low-HP enemies for a guaranteed kill and Energy refund
• Upgraded 32 damage brings even mid-bosses and elites into one-shot range
• Pair with Battery to lock in an extra Energy next turn for reliable heavy plays

• Recursion: Attack-heavy decks fish extra free plays from this card
• Battery: Extra Energy next turn smooths out the 3 Energy cost
• Double Energy: Stack with the 3 Energy refund for a massive combo turn
• Sever: Same kill-and-refund effect. Running both creates longer kill chains
