Card of the Day Archive
October 13, 2003: Flesh

Flesh

This positive minion goes great with bio-decay cards (usually found in the Bio-tek discipline). It costs 5 CP, but if you attack with it and then use its offensive response, it is cost effective. The fact that it is positive gives you an added incentive.
You cannot use the response twice to lower the cost of a card by 4 CP. You can use it once to lower one card and then again to lower another card. The cost of the card does not go below 1 CP, so if it costs 3 CP it drops to 1, and if it costs 2 CP it drops to 1 as well.
It has 2 life and once you use the response, it will have 1 life. However, if it has 1 life, it can die from cards that deal 1 XDMG like the Nukatal Boom-Rang. If you are worried about this, attack with it first (most minions deal 1 ADMG for 3 CP), and then use its ability. If your opponent paid 3 CP to deny you using 2 CP, it was worth it.
You can use its ability while Flesh is set and or in the support field, there are no restrictions.
