Upgraded

• Cost: 1
• Effect: Deal 13 damage. Draw 2 cards. Choose a card in hand and put it on top of your draw pile.

An excellent attack card that combines damage, draw, and deck manipulation in one play. 10-13 damage for 1 Energy is above average, while the draw refills your hand and the top-of-deck placement lets you seed a key card for next turn.

Particularly strong for stacking a must-play card (Comet, Consolidate, etc.) on top of the draw pile for the next turn. Upgraded Draw 2 massively expands your hand options. It also chains with Glimmer or other copies of itself to dig deep through the deck.

• After the attack, pick the card you most want to guarantee on next turn's opening
• Combine with Consolidate (Retain the whole hand for next turn) to ensure the stacked card is there
• The upgraded Draw 2 is very strong — one of the top upgrade priorities

• Consolidate: Retains your hand into next turn. The card you planted with Photon Cut is guaranteed to be drawn
• Shining Strike: Self-returns to the top of the draw pile. Chain from Photon Cut into looping plays
• Glimmer: Also manipulates the top of the draw pile. Together they give you full control of next turn's hand
• Pale Blue Dot: Easier to hit the 5-cards-per-turn trigger
