Mental Fortress

What we think of Mental Fortress

Mental fortress is a build around card that requires you to take many stance change effects. Note that exit also counts as a change of stance. Obviously, this card synergises extremely well with flurry of blows, as not only are you generating block for changing stances, but most of the time you will also drawing an additional attack. Multiple copies of this make the effect even stronger, in many cases meaning you don't need to use block cards. Note that this strategy can be fairly inconsistent, as if you do not draw the stance change cards that you need you will often die on the same turn. I would not include mantra cards when employing this kind of strategy.
