Sentry Mode

Buff

At the start of your turn, add 1 Sweeping Gaze into your Hand.

Sentry Mode is the Necrobinder's rare Power Sentry Mode. When your turn begins, just before you draw, one Sweeping Gaze is created and put into your hand. Sweeping Gaze is a 0-cost token Attack with Ethereal and Exhaust that has Osty deal 10 damage to a random enemy. A second play gives two stacks and two Gazes each turn.

Notes

How the token works

Timing: the token is added before the hand draw, so it counts toward your hand before your normal cards arrive.
Free damage: because the Gaze is Ethereal and Exhausts, an unplayed copy vanishes instead of clogging the deck.
Needs Osty: the damage comes from Osty, so he must be on the field for the card to do anything.
Upgrade: the upgraded card does not change the power, it only drops the cost from 2 to 1.
No decay: the stack never decays.

Changes by version

1 Nov 2024ChangeOstyInternal playtest
Sentry Mode power is now applied to the player, meaning it can be played while Osty is dead and it will still trigger after he's summoned
19 Apr 2024Bug fixOstyInternal playtest
The Sentry Mode power no longer triggers when Osty dies

Internal playtest notes are from before the Early Access release. Names and numbers in them can differ from the game today.
