Aggregate

Aggregate is an uncommon Defect skill that generates 1 Energy for every 4 cards in your draw pile for 1 Energy. In a larger deck, the early turns where the draw pile is full can yield 2-3 bonus Energy from a single Aggregate, providing a net positive energy turn. As the deck thins and the draw pile shrinks, the energy generated decreases.

Aggregate rewards large decks and early-turn timing. Playing it on turn 1 against a full draw pile can generate 3+ Energy for 1 spent, which is exceptional. In slim decks or late in a deck cycle, it may only break even or generate minimal return. It pairs well with card-draw-heavy strategies where the draw pile stays populated. Upgraded, the threshold drops to 1 Energy per 3 cards, improving efficiency at all deck sizes and making it more reliable in mid-sized decks.
