Bronze Automaton

The Bronze Automaton is one of the three bosses encountered at the end of Act 2.
It spawns minions to steal the players' cards and uses a powerful move called Hyper Beam to attempt to kill the player. Depending on which cards the orbs steal, this fight can be very dangerous.
== Pattern ==
Always starts with Spawn Orbs, then repeats the following:
# Flail
# Boost
# Flail
# Boost
# HYPER BEAM
# Stunned (does nothing)
On Ascension 19 and higher, Stunned is replaced with Boost.
Name 	Intent	Effect
Spawn Orbs	 	Spawns 2 Bronze Orbs.
Boost 	 	Gain 3 and 9 .
Boost 	 	Gain and 9.
Boost 	 	Gain and .

Flail 	 	Deals x 2 damage.

== Bronze Orb ==
A Minion spawned by the Bronze Automaton.
=== Pattern ===
Has a 75% chance of using Stasis, 7.5% chance of using Beam and 17.5% chance of using Support Beam every turn.
After Stasis is used, will now have a 70% chance of using Support Beam and a 30% chance of using Beam every turn. It cannot use the same move 3 times in a row.
Destroying a Bronze Orb that has stolen a card from you via Stasis will return the card into your hand in the same turn.
Note that cards in stasis are completely unaffected by any effect that would usually influence them. For example, cost will not increase if you are hit while it is in stasis.
Name 	Intent	Effect
Stasis 	 	Steals the rarest card in the draw pile, or from the discard pile if the draw pile is empty.
Beam 	 	Deals 8 damage.
Support Beam	 	Gives Bronze Automaton 12 .
== Trivia ==
* The Hyper Beam attack is a reference to the Pokémon games, in which Hyper Beam is one of the strongest moves in existence, after which the user also has to skip the next turn to recharge.
** It also shares its name with of similar effect, both being powerful attacks that greatly cripples their users.
* The Bronze Orb shows a slight resemblance to the Sentry, even though there is no clear connection shown in-game.
