Wreath of Flame

Wreath of flame is quite a difficult card to analyse but it definitely has more uses than it may first seem. Although 5 or 8 additional damage may not seem much, remember that these numbers are doubled or tripled in wrath or divinity stances respectively. Furthermore, any multi hit or aoe attacks benefit greatly from this card. Perhaps the best example of this is ragnarok. Since the effect persists over multiple turns, it is possible to play Wreath of flame and only play an attack on a turn when you have entered wrath or divinity. Be aware that this is difficult to pull off with wrath cards such as tantrum and eruption, since the buff will be consumed before you have entered the stance. Outside of these uses, Wreath of Flame is worse than just drafting a standard attack, since if you draw a hand full of skills you might not be able to finish off an opponent where even a strike would have done the job.
