Spice
A cheap Pyreskin that turns its first self-ping each turn into +1 attack for another attacker, so Fire's self-damage pays off twice.
Errata. Printed: “Once/Turn: Whenever this card takes damage, it gets +1 attack until the end of the turn.” Official errata
How to play it
- Use Zero's leader ability on Spice: Spice gets +1 attack from Zero, and its own trigger gives another Garden entity +1. One activation, two boosted attackers.
- Zero's ability can reach the Alley, so you can ping Spice while it waits there, safe from attacks. The +1 still goes to an entity in your Garden.
- Combat damage triggers it too. Send Spice into a tapped entity first, and the +1 lands on an entity that has not attacked yet.

quinnThe author says that in almost all cases it is better to run a card like Spice at max copies than Lounge Siren, Saeko.
High Stakes Fire (LA Regionals, 19th out of 315)
ZhuThe author's MVP in this pre-ban list: cheap bait to send through Rushfire Gate (sometimes in place of Warlord), early damage, the cheapest activator for Collateral Burst, and a way to make Black Jade Courier a 2/1.
