You are viewing an old version of this card
One Energy for 10 damage, 13 upgraded, and it gives you a counter: the next Ethereal card you play from your hand costs 0. The counter has no expiry in the code, so it waits across turns, and a second Veilpiercer stacks it to two free plays. Any Ethereal card qualifies, including ones that gained the keyword from another effect.

When to take Veilpiercer
Take it when the deck runs Ethereal cards worth discounting, above all a 3-cost Power. Even alone it is a fair hit, so it is a safe Act 1 pick for the Necrobinder.
