** On the Ironclad side of things, Searing Blow's special ability is that it can be upgraded an infinite number of times (as opposed to every other card where it's a one-and-done affair), and the bonus damage the card receives increases with every upgrade. Unfortunately, this means that you have to focus upgrading only Searing Blow since it requires a few upgrades before it becomes viable, which in turn means cards with more utility are left in the dust and you're foregoing opportunities to heal, which can be a tough prospect on the Ironclad since his defensive capabilities are generally lacklustre.
