A Cost 1 (0 upgraded) skill that plays the top card of the draw pile and Exudes it. Two effects in one — it fires a free play while also triggering Exude synergies. Using Headbutt to place a strong card on top before Havoc turns it into a bonus action. Upgraded to Cost 0, it becomes extremely powerful, letting you deploy top-of-deck cards without spending Energy. Pairing Exude synergies (Ash Strike, Evil Eye, Feel No Pain) is the premise, making it a core card of Exude builds.

Aim for the upgraded Cost 0 and prioritize the Smith for this upgrade. With Headbutt placing a heavy hitter (Whirlwind, Skull Bash) on top of the deck before Havoc, you effectively get a free powerful play plus Exude synergy. Be mindful of timing if War Drum (Exudes top of deck at turn start) is already active, so the Exudes don't overlap poorly. If Dark Embrace (draw on Exude) is active, Havoc's Exude triggers a draw on top of the played card. Doubles as deck thinning, letting you burn through early junk cards quickly.

• Headbutt: Places a discard card on top of the draw pile. Combined with Havoc to reliably play and Exude any chosen card.
• Ash Strike: Attack dealing 3-4 damage per Exude. Havoc's Exude accumulates count every turn and powers up Ash Strike.
• Dark Embrace: Power drawing on Exude. Havoc's Exude also triggers a draw.
• Evil Eye: Skill granting bonus Block if you've Exuded this turn. Havoc fulfills the Exude condition for maximum Evil Eye Block.
• Feel No Pain: Power granting Block on Exude. Havoc automatically stacks Block each use.
