💡 How to Use
Infernal Blade is a high-variance tempo tool that allows the Ironclad to access potentially high-cost Attacks for only 1 Energy. It is most effective in decks that can mitigate its randomness through Exhaust synergies or by benefiting from the increased card play count.
⚡ Synergies
card
Corruption
Corruption reduces the cost of Infernal Blade to 0 Energy, allowing you to generate and play a free Attack without any resource investment. This interaction triggers two separate Exhaust procs and counts as two card plays for zero total cost.
card
Dark Embrace
Since Infernal Blade exhausts itself upon use, Dark Embrace immediately draws a card to replace it. This maintains hand size while fishing for specific combo pieces alongside the random Attack generated.
card
Feel No Pain
This card provides immediate defensive value by granting Block when Infernal Blade exhausts. It helps offset the potential tempo loss if the random Attack generated is low-impact or defensive in nature.
relic
Charon's Ashes
This relic deals 3 damage to all enemies whenever a card is exhausted, turning Infernal Blade into a guaranteed AOE damage source. It adds a floor of reliable damage to the card regardless of which Attack is randomly added to your hand.
card
One-Two Punch
Because the Attack generated by Infernal Blade is free to play, you can easily combo it with One-Two Punch to play the generated card twice. This is exceptionally powerful if Infernal Blade generates high-damage, high-cost cards like Bludgeon or Hemokinesis.
