💡 How to Use
Tools of the Trade is a cornerstone for discard-centric decks, providing a reliable way to trigger 'on discard' effects every turn without further energy investment. It is best used to increase deck velocity and ensure that cards like Tactician or Reflex are never dead weight in your hand.
⚡ Synergies
card
Tactician
Tools of the Trade provides a guaranteed discard at the start of every turn, allowing you to consistently trigger Tactician for free energy. This turns the power into a long-term energy generation engine.
card
Reflex
Discarding Reflex via this power's effect allows you to draw two additional cards at the start of your turn. This significantly increases your hand size and helps you find key combo pieces faster.
relic
Tough Bandages
This relic grants 3 Block every time a card is discarded, providing passive defensive scaling every single turn while the power is active. It helps mitigate incoming damage while you focus on cycling through your deck.
relic
Tingsha
Tingsha deals damage to a random enemy whenever a card is discarded, turning your start-of-turn cycle into free offensive pressure. This synergy allows you to chip away at enemies' health simply by ending and starting your turns.
card
Memento Mori
Memento Mori deals additional damage for every card discarded during the turn it is played. Tools of the Trade ensures you always have at least one discard count at the start of your turn to boost this attack's damage floor.
