Zdantal's Gift

If you ever had the thought, darn if only I had 1 or 2 more life I would have won that game, then try a few of these out in your deck. Great for abilities that cost life from your gladiators like Assault Jumppack, Blasting Surge, Mind Over Body, Sympathy, Mannequin Droids, Transmogrification or even abilities on your gladiators like those found with Taa Ra, Trace, The Stranger, Bull’s Eye, Opac Sentir, Mannequin, Goth Garal, Prince of Gates, Lillith, or Freakshow. Remember that all players benefit from this +2 Life so be sure to have a lot of spectral gladiators on your team to get that edge.
If you have that poker face, you can use this card to bluff your opponent into false comfort, they might even take enough wounds to go over their printed life, thinking they have until the end of the wave and that you would not get rid of the zone. That’s when you do get rid of it (by flipping it with another zone). Also be careful, your opponent might flip this zone against you.
