Undeath

NecrobinderSkillRare
Gain 7 Block.
Add a copy of this card into your Discard Pile.

Free to play: gain 7 Block, 9 upgraded, and put a copy of Undeath into your discard pile. The copy keeps the upgrade and has the same text, so every play adds one more Undeath to the deck for the rest of the combat. The card does not Exhaust; the pile of copies keeps growing as long as you keep playing them.

When to take Undeath

Take it for a deck that wants free Block every turn and does not mind a fatter draw pile, good from Act 1 on. In a thin combo deck the copies dilute your draws.
