💡 How to Use
Synthesis is a powerful tempo tool designed to cheat the high energy costs of the Defect's most impactful Power cards while maintaining offensive pressure. It is most effective when used to bridge the gap into a setup turn, allowing you to play a 3-cost Power and still have energy remaining for defense or further scaling.
⚡ Synergies
card
Echo Form
Synthesis completely removes the 3-energy burden of Echo Form, allowing you to establish your most powerful scaling mechanic without forfeiting your entire turn. This combo enables you to immediately benefit from the double-play effect on the same turn using your remaining energy.
card
Creative AI
By making Creative AI free, Synthesis jumpstarts your power-generation engine early in the fight without sacrificing the ability to block or attack. This is essential for power-focused builds that need to reach critical mass quickly to outscale enemies.
relic
Mummified Hand
Synthesis makes a Power card cost 0, and playing that free Power triggers Mummified Hand to reduce the cost of another random card in your hand to 0. This creates a massive energy-cheating chain that can lead to explosive turns where multiple high-cost cards are played for free.
card
Signal Boost
Signal Boost causes your next Power to be played twice, and Synthesis ensures that Power costs 0 energy. Together, they allow you to double-cast high-impact buffs like Defragment or Capacitor for a total of 0 energy after the initial setup.
