What's the deal with Second Wind?
Is Second Wind some kind of joke card? Everything turns to ♥♥♥♥ everytime I add it to my deck. Am I missing something?

As is, I'm not the one to ask whether it's a "good" card for the type of effect it has. I prefer True Grit+ for the precision targeting of what I remove.

Okay, makes sense. I'll try it out with more stat and curse cards in the deck

Fyi, try not to have curses in the first place. Status Chad is a meme as well.

Second wind's more of an extra kick you might pick up in act 3 if you already have feel no pain, dark embrace, corruption, juggernaut, body slam, ok card draw and/or snecko eye.

Feel no pain, evolve+ and second wind is one of the most satisfying combos i have ever had in this game
