TURBO

TURBO is a common Defect skill that costs 0 Energy, grants 2 Energy immediately, and adds a Void card into your Discard Pile. The Void penalty reduces your Energy next turn when drawn, creating a risk-reward dynamic. At its best, TURBO enables explosive turns where you play expensive powerhouse cards far ahead of schedule.

TURBO pairs excellently with Meteor Strike, providing the Energy needed to cast the 5-cost behemoth, and with Compact, which can transform the Void status into useful Fuel. Iteration triggers on drawing the Void status, and Smokestack deals damage whenever the Void is created, turning TURBO's downside into additional offense.

For the Defect, TURBO is a high-skill card that rewards careful sequencing. Against bosses like Lagavulin Matriarch where you need to set up quickly, the extra Energy can be game-winning. Use it to fund Double Energy for quadrupled resources, or to power out Creative AI or Echo Form a turn early. Manage the Void drawback with exhaust effects like Disassemble or by timing TURBO on turns where next turn's Energy loss is acceptable.
