What we think of biasedcognition
Biased cognition is single-handedly the most powerful defect card for hallway fights. It is extremely fast acting, cheap, and has no downsides until turn 5. It is comparable to Wraith Form: you do not want to play this until you are sure that combat will be over before its effect wears off. This makes it a bit of a gamble in boss fights, but its benefits greatly outweigh its downsides. I would always recommend picking up at least one copy of this card. If you have any ways of getting artifact, the downside of this card can be fully negated making it incredibly powerful. Furthermore, orange pellets can remove the focus down debuff, and since this power is so cheap it is very easy to consistently pull this off on the turn that it is played.
