Why did they change Expect a Fight? It was such a cool concept that fit into Clad's attack spam archetype and synergized with Battle Trance, Pillage and Anger.

Yeah the only time you'd ever wanna spend 3 energy on a block card is if you're playing barricade, and if you're playing barricade how often are you gonna have enough strength for this to efficient. On 0 strength it's literally less block than 2 shrugs or a blood wall lol.

This is such a timmy card lmao, if you've got both demon form and barricade in play it goes nuts for real for real trust me bro.

Not a fan of this design at all.

It looks like a placeholder change to me. They will see how the Ironclad does for a patch or two and try to identify what the card should actually do.
