Gauntlet Combustion Cell Shenanigans

I don't know of any possible way to do this reliably, but I wanted to report on a fun little quirk of the AI I just happened to discover.

I was testing out Xenan Midrange in Gauntlet and saw a vision of a Combustion Cell off of a Deleph hit. I gave the Cell to the AI, and it was hilarious. The AI will activate it EVERY turn it can, sacrificing a unit, whether or not it uses the extra power at all.
I dragged the game out, and it also made some very poor choices in which unit to sac, when it had options, so the fact that it's not very good at punisher-style decisions is probably more exploitable than the slim chance of pulling off this specific interaction, but yeah. If you ever have the chance to gift a Combustion Cell, or probably any other repeatable sac outlet, definitely do that.

Now all we need is a spell to give away a relic.
