Dagger Throw

Deal 9 damage. Draw 1 card. Discard 1 card.

Dagger Throw is a 1-cost common Attack card for the Silent that deals 9 damage, draws 1 card, and discards 1 card. The draw and discard provides deck cycling alongside respectable damage. The discard can trigger discard synergies, making it both an offensive and utility card.

Dagger Throw synergizes with Reflex and Tactician, which trigger when discarded for free card draw and energy. Sneaky deals damage when the discard occurs. Envenom applies Poison when the 9 damage is unblocked. Finisher counts this as an Attack played for scaling damage. The draw-discard cycle helps find key cards in boss fights.

Silent players should pick Dagger Throw as a versatile common card that provides damage, cycling, and discard triggers. It is effective against virtually all enemies and fits into both discard-synergy and general-purpose decks. The card remains useful throughout the run, especially with Reflex and Tactician in the deck.
