Tender
Tender is applied by the Hunter Killer's Tenderizing Goop, 1 stack, and it never wears off. Every card you play during your turn costs you 1 Strength and 1 Dexterity, applied silently, and the icon counts the cards played so far. At the end of your turn the same number of Strength and Dexterity is given back and the counter resets to 0.

The loss per card is always 1 and 1, whatever the stack count reads. The effect is front-loaded: your first card of the turn plays at full stats, so lead with your biggest Attack or Block card and play filler afterward. Cheap 0-cost cards are the worst offenders since each one still costs a point of both. The Goop turn itself deals no damage, which is your window.
Changes by version
- Made Tender a debuff

Internal playtest notes are from before the Early Access release. Names and numbers in them can differ from the game today.
If you haven't bought Slay The Spire 2 yet, it's time. Support the devs, they made an amazing game.
