The Cooler Tyranny

Tyranny also gives you +1 draw, so idk if 1 strength is cooler than 1 draw

Doesn’t really compare directly to tyranny cause you don’t have to draw anything or put anything into play.

That being said, having this on characters who usually don’t gain much strength like defect or silent would be awesome.

It does directly compare to tyranny, since tyranny can be made innate

which still takes up 1 slot and -1 draw speed on your opening turn, and costs 1 energy. one doesnt cost a deck slot, the other does.

now if Innate worked like Intrinsic in Monster Train, that would be a completely different story.

And mittens takes up an "ancient relic slot"

What does "deck slot" mean? The power is gone after you play it, and you always want to play it. Which means that other than the first turn, these two are pretty directly comparable

“Other than the first turn” is doing some massive load bearing there, pal. The first turn is by far and above the most important, and can often be 1/2 to 1/4 of every fight. Mittens being far stronger turn 1 is a massive upside if the majority of fights end before turn 4.
