Toxic

Status
At the end of your turn, if this is in your Hand, take 5 damage.
Exhaust.
  • A Status that Myte drops straight into your hand, two at a time.
  • It costs 1 Energy to play and Exhausts when you do, which is the only way to remove it.
  • If it is still in your hand at the end of your turn you take 5 damage.
  • That damage is not an attack, so Vulnerable and Strength do not change it, but your Block absorbs it.
  • It is not Ethereal, so an unplayed copy goes to the discard pile and comes back around.

When to take Toxic

Pay the Energy whenever you can spare it, since 1 Energy beats 5 HP and playing it clears the card for the fight. Never let two copies sit at end of turn.
