Anger

IroncladAttackCommon
Deal 6 damage.
Add a copy of this card into your Discard Pile.

A free 6-damage hit, 8 when upgraded, that leaves a copy of itself in your discard pile. Every copy does the same when played, so the count keeps rising through a long fight. It never exhausts and counts as an Attack for every relic and power that tracks attack plays.

When to take Anger
