Taunt

Taunt is a 1-cost Uncommon Skill card for the Ironclad that applies 2 Vulnerable to ALL enemies. In multi-enemy fights, this provides tremendous value by amplifying damage against every target simultaneously.

Taunt's AoE Vulnerable powers up Dominate to gain Strength equal to total Vulnerable across all enemies, potentially gaining 4-6 Strength in multi-enemy fights. Follow with Whirlwind, Breakthrough, or Immolate to deal amplified AoE damage to all Vulnerable targets. Stampede draws cards based on the enemy's Vulnerable stacks. Thunderclap provides both damage and Vulnerable in an AoE, but Taunt applies more Vulnerable without requiring damage.

Taunt is the Ironclad's best AoE Vulnerable card. Pick it when facing multi-enemy encounters or when Dominate is in your deck for massive Strength generation. Against Test Subject #C10, applying Vulnerable to all summoned enemies amplifies your AoE damage significantly. Against single targets, Bash or Brand is often better. The Ironclad's Vulnerable archetype reaches its peak in multi-enemy fights with Taunt as the enabler.
