Hidden Daggers

Discard 2 cards. Add 2 Shivs into your Hand.

Hidden Daggers is a 1-cost Uncommon Attack card for the Ironclad that deals 3 damage to ALL enemies 2 times. The double AoE hit benefits from Strength, with each hit to each enemy gaining the Strength bonus, making it an efficient AoE damage source.

Hidden Daggers scales with Strength from Inflame and Demon Form across both hits to all enemies. Taunt applies Vulnerable to ALL enemies, amplifying both hits across all targets. Pair with Whirlwind, Immolate, and Breakthrough for layered AoE coverage. Thunderclap adds Vulnerable for additional damage amplification. The double hit triggers Rage Block once as a single Attack play.

Hidden Daggers is an AoE damage card for the Ironclad that scales well with Strength. Pick it when facing multi-enemy encounters. Against Test Subject #C10, the double AoE hit handles summoned enemies effectively. Against Kin Priest, the AoE pressure helps manage the fight. The Ironclad has many strong AoE options, and Hidden Daggers provides reliable double-hit coverage. Strength bonuses make it increasingly effective.
