Chaos

Chaos is an uncommon Defect skill costing 1 Energy that channels 1 random Orb. The randomness provides Orb diversity, which benefits cards that reward having multiple Orb types. Any Orb type can appear, including Lightning, Frost, Dark, Plasma, and Glass, each providing different strategic value.

Chaos contributes to Orb diversity for Compile Driver's card draw bonus and Synchronize's Focus calculation. Barrage deals damage per Orb regardless of type, and Defragment boosts whatever Orb Chaos generates. Rainbow provides guaranteed diverse Orbs alongside Chaos's random generation.

For the Defect, Chaos is a flexible Orb generator that fits into diverse builds. Against bosses like Kaiser Crab where sustained Orb generation matters, Chaos fills board slots efficiently. Against Ceremonial Beast, a lucky Plasma from Chaos can fund expensive plays. The randomness means Chaos is less reliable than targeted channelers like Zap or Coolheaded, but the diversity it provides has unique synergistic value.
