Biiig Hug

Biiig Hug

Ancient
Upon pickup, remove 4 cards from your Deck. Whenever you shuffle your Draw Pile, add a Soot into your Draw Pile.
  • On pickup: you remove 4 cards of your choice from the deck.
  • Every shuffle: a Soot is inserted at a random position in your draw pile.
  • Soot: it is an Unplayable Status that does nothing but take a hand slot, it is not Ethereal, so it goes to the discard and comes back with the next shuffle, joined by a new one.
  • Thin decks: a thin deck shuffles more often and fills faster.
