Survivor

Survivor is a 1-cost common Skill card for the Silent that gains 8 Block and discards 1 card. The 8 Block for 1 energy is solid value, and the discard can be turned into an advantage with discard synergy cards. As a common card, it is frequently available and provides reliable defense.

Survivor pairs with Reflex and Tactician, which trigger when discarded for free card draw and energy. Footwork boosts the 8 Block with Dexterity for strong defensive scaling. Sneaky deals damage whenever Survivor discards a card. Phantom Blades generates a Shiv when this Skill is played, adding offense to the defensive card.

Silent players should pick Survivor as a solid defensive card that doubles as a discard enabler. It is effective against virtually all enemies, providing consistent Block while triggering discard synergies. The card works well in both dedicated discard builds and general-purpose decks, making it a safe pick in any Act 1 card reward.
