How to play it
- The bonus lasts only while it holds a Weapon, and Weapons leave at the end of every turn. Plan to rearm it each turn you attack.
- Portal it with Surge Gate to equip a 1-cost Weapon for free, then pay 1 IKZ with your Raizan leader so it attacks for 4 at once.
- On their turn, Hidden Dagger played as a Response also turns on the bonus, so it hits back for 4.
