Escape Plan

SilentSkillUncommon
Draw 1 card.
If you draw a Skill, gain 3 Block.

It draws one card, then checks that card's type: a Skill gives you 3 Block, while an Attack, Power, Status or Curse gives nothing. The Block is normal card Block, so Dexterity adds to it. If your draw pile and discard pile are both empty, nothing is drawn and no Block is gained. Upgraded, the Skill bonus is 5.

When to take Escape Plan

Good early in Act 1 for the thinning; a free cantrip that sometimes blocks, great for Skill heavy Poison and Shiv generator decks. Upgrade it late, if ever.
