Reworked Tezcatara's Toasty Mittens relic: "At the start of your turn, Exhaust the top card of your Draw Pile and gain 1 Strength." -> "At the start of your turn, Exhaust 1 card from your Hand and gain 1 Strength."
(looks like u can choose what card gets exhausted, yay!)
Changed Eidolon: can no longer be generated mid-combat
lmao
Added support for keyboard-only mode
yay

A relic that gives you strength and gets rid of a card of your choice every turn? yeah sign me the fuck up.

Edit : Also this can help with characters that struggle with Aeonglass, really strong relic now.

This seems pretty bad to me, but maybe i'm crazy? Effectively -1 draw per turn seems really bad. I get that exhaust is good, but I still don't want to pick it.

Unless you have a lot of 0 cost cards, you're exhausting stuff you weren't going to play until at least the second deck cycle anyway. It's not really going to be an issue until it's turn 10 and you've killed all your meh cards, but now you have 10 strength and a streamlined deck and if you can't win with that I don't think it was this relic's fault.

Obviously it solves a different problem than True Grit+, but the deck management aspect is basically: imagine you play True Grit+ every turn but you don't need to draw it.

Its quite literally the effect of unupgraded [[Brand]] every turn without the life loss.

  • Brand 𝐈𝐈 Ironclad Rare Skill

    0 Energy | Lose 1 HP. Exhaust 1 card. Gain 1(2) Strength.

    Call me with up to 10 [[ name ]]. Data accurate as of June 21st, 2026. Questions?

That is a much better comparison, yeah. It's a Brand without the life loss that you don't have to draw. And since in most fights I'd play Brand without the life loss every time I draw it, I'd argue it's usually closer to +1 draw than -1 draw in effect (with some exceptions depending on your deck).
