A strength
220 HP. Only 3 cards in Ancient Origins carry more.
A strength
Jagged Saber hits for 100 on 2 Energy. Nothing in Ancient Origins hits harder for that price.
A strength
It has an Ability, {title}:. An Ability costs you no attack, so you can use it and still swing the same turn.
Keep in mind
None of the 3,811 tournament lists we have read runs it. That does not make it a bad card — it means we have not seen it on a table yet.
Keep in mind
It is an ex card. The turn it goes down your opponent takes 2 Prizes instead of one, and games do turn on exactly that.
Keep in mind
Weakness Fire ×2. Against a Fire Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,811 tournament lists we have read, 914 run at least one Pokémon of that type.
