Headbutt is an Attack card for the Ironclad. It deals 9 damage, then prompts the player to select a card from their discard pile, which will then be the next card drawn. As a Common card, it can be found as a reward after combats.

Interactions[]

  • Combined with any ability to draw more cards, it's possible to play a desired card twice in one turn: just play it once, use Headbutt to retrieve it, then play it again.
    • If for some reason you wanted to, you could also use Headbutt to retrieve Headbutt, then use it again to retrieve another Headbutt, and so on.
  • Pairs well with Havoc to place a high-cost card on top of the draw pile and play it for less total energy.
  • Doesn't pair well with Mayhem, as the card retrieved is drawn before Mayhem's effect happens.
