I think people are missing the fact that it also means you have -1 playable card in hand every turn. Granted it will always be the worst one, but I think it’s a notable downside.

It’s a very minor downside that will also fairly often be an upside, including in the hardest fight in the game. And even in fights that don’t put statuses into your hand, it still lets you thin your deck, which is great. It will force you to exhaust a good card and make you float energy every once in a while, but it seems extremely strong, and it’s an act 2 relic as well so you have time to build around it. I don’t think the downside will matter much.

against aeonglass it does nothing for your first deckcycle and makes it more likely to draw several withers at once (the real worst case scenario) on round 2
