Core Surge is a Rare Defect card that deals 11 (15) damage and grants 1 Artifact buff.

While Core Surge can be useful for negating enemy debuffs, it is particularly excellent for setting up combos with certain other cards by activating Core Surge's Artifact before playing the cards, eliminating their debuffs. See examples below.

Interactions

• If Biased Cognition is played while an Artifact is active, the Focus loss will be negated.
• An Artifact will negate the Focus loss of Hyperbeam.
• Reprogram's Focus loss will be negated for each active Artifact. Since Reprogram can be played multiple times, more than one Core Surge can be useful here.
• Artifacts will negate the loss of 5 Strength after using a Flex Potion or the loss of 5 Dexterity from a Speed Potion, making them buffs that last the entire combat.

• If used for killing Fungi Beast, Vulnerable will be applied before Artifact is gained.
