Ice Lance

Defragment

Focus scaling is essential for Frost orbs to remain relevant in the late game, turning the three orbs from Ice Lance into a permanent defensive solution. This card provides the scaling needed to justify the high energy investment of channeling multiple orbs at once.

This relic mitigates the high 3-energy cost of Ice Lance by randomizing it, often allowing for a massive tempo swing for very little energy. The increased hand size also helps ensure Ice Lance is available exactly when the player needs to generate a large amount of block.

Playing Ice Lance twice results in 6 Frost orbs and massive damage, which can completely fill the Defect's orb slots and provide total safety. This synergy turns a single card draw into a game-winning defensive engine.

Starting combat with Focus ensures that the Frost orbs from Ice Lance provide immediate value, helping to offset the high energy cost. This synergy is particularly strong in shorter hallway fights where setting up multiple powers might be too slow.
