Have a look at what it does well, then at what will get in your way. After that you'll know whether it belongs in your deck.

A strength
Retreat cost 1. One Energy to discard and it is back on the Bench, which matters a lot on the turn you need to swap attackers.

It has an Ability, Holes. An Ability costs you no attack, so you can use it and still swing the same turn.

A strength
