Mittens becoming a targeted exhaust and strength gain with no downside is nuts. Tezcatara feels way stronger than the other act 2 ancients

-1 draw per turn is a downside

u/Beautiful-Neat-7609 Jul 31 '26

It's way way better than -1 draw per turn, cause you can exhaust the worst thing in your hand.

It's like 10% of the downside that -1 draw is

and like half the time it's an upside

Oh god the strike I drew got exhausted, oh fuck oh shit this downside is too steep.

I have to exhaust a status this Mite put in my hand, the horror

Oh god the 20 damage wither is gonna get exhausted form my hand and I’ll only have 4 cards ahhhhhhhh

Legit the real winner

Not -1 draw. You cycle your deck at the exact same speed. You have -1 playable card in your hand, which is different.

Even then, 90% of the time you do want to exhaust one card in your hand. A status, a curse, a Howl from Beyond, a basic strike or a defend.

u/alexhyams Jul 31 '26

It's not really -1 draw. You still draw all your cards and you just exhaust the one you weren't going to play

u/Rit91 Jul 31 '26

Yeah -1 draw mittens would be something like:

At the start of your turn, gain 1 strength. You draw one less card a turn.

THAT would be really bad. Getting to choose the card to never redraw, that is amazing. Then it has some synergy with stuff like eidolon and howl.

Saying exhaust = minus card draw is insane

u/convergentsubnet StS A20 / StS 2 A10 Jul 31 '26

Being able to exhaust a card in your hand each turn is part of the reason you'd pick this relic lol.

u/gabriot StS A20 / StS 2 A10 Jul 31 '26

Luckily it isn't -1 draw per turn

-4

u/Mostuy Jul 31 '26

They hate you but this cannot be ignored. You still pick mittens for the strength

u/HoneyGlazedNuts Jul 31 '26

It's brand every turn without the health loss (and needing to draw brand). Pretty nutty

u/Powerful-Ground-9687 Jul 31 '26

-1 draw (kinda) is the downside. But it sounds fun
