Compile

Gain 10 Block. If you have 3 or more Orbs, gain 10 additional Block.

Compile is a rare Defect skill costing 1 Energy that gains 10 Block, with an additional 10 Block if you have 3 or more Orbs channeled. This conditional bonus makes Compile one of the highest-value defensive cards available to the Defect, providing up to 20 Block for just 1 Energy when the Orb condition is met.

Compile naturally pairs with Capacitor, which adds Orb Slots to help reach the 3-Orb threshold, and with Glacier, which channels 2 Frost Orbs to quickly fill your board. Rainbow channels 3 different Orbs in one card, guaranteeing Compile's bonus. Zap and Ball Lightning provide cheap Orb generation to maintain the threshold.

For the Defect, Compile is a top-tier defensive card that rewards maintaining a full Orb board. Against bosses like Doormaker and Lagavulin Matriarch who deal heavy damage, 20 Block for 1 Energy is extraordinary value. Prioritize keeping 3+ Orbs at all times when running Compile, and use Capacitor to ensure you never fall below the threshold. Even the base 10 Block is solid when your Orb count is temporarily low.
