アイアンクラッド

A Cost 1 attack dealing 9 damage (10 upgraded) while drawing 1 card (2 upgraded). Dealing damage and drawing simultaneously gives high versatility, and as a Strike-family card it triggers Hell Raiser. Upgraded to 10 damage + 2 draw, it's extremely efficient for 1 Energy. Useful early-mid as a draw source, and continues as a core engine in Hell Raiser or Strike-heavy decks. High pick priority since it accelerates deck cycling while dealing damage.

Use aggressively as a draw source, pulling key combo pieces (Bash, Dissect, Whirlwind). With Hell Raiser active, every draw triggers auto-play, dealing passive damage from the draw pile. Upgraded 2 draw hits Battle Trance's limit, so play order matters — get Pommel Strike's 2 draws before Battle Trance's restriction. Boosts both deck Strike count and mutual synergy with Perfected Strike.

• Hell Raiser: Power auto-playing Strikes on draw. Auto-damage on every Pommel Strike drawn.
• Perfected Strike: Attack scaling with Strike count. Helps pad the Strike count.
• Brutality: Power drawing on Vulnerable application. Combines with Pommel Strike for accelerated draw.
• Battle Trance: 0-cost mass draw. Timing matters due to Pommel Strike's own draw effect.
