Flex

Flex is a Skill card for the Ironclad. It grants the user 2 (4) and applies 2 (4) Strength Down, which reduces the user's Strength by 2 (4) when their turn ends. Strength Down is considered a Debuff, and so can be negated by some effects (see Interactions).
Upon upgrade, and Strength Down both increase from 2 to 4.
==Interactions==
 
* Cards which hit multiple times benefit the most from strength buffs since each hit is given the damage boost, such as or . also carries an innate boost from strength.
* The Strength Down effect only removes as much as the card gives (2 base, 4 upgraded). This means if an upgraded Flex is played (+4 strength) followed by (doubles strength to +8) , the player will still only lose -4 strength at the end of the round leaving a +4 overall strength boost for the rest of combat.
* Since Strength Down is a Debuff, using or having an active before use will negate the Strength Down effect while keeping the boost.
