+1 Action Trash this or a card from your hand. Look at a number of cards from the top of your deck equal to the cost in of the trashed card. Put one into your hand and discard the rest. |
Raze is an Action card from Adventures. It is a trash-for-benefit sifter, turning the cost in of the trashed card into cards from your deck to select from. It is relatively weak as a trasher, but unlike most trashers it's able to trash itself once it stops being useful.

- If you trash a card costing with this, you do not get any cards.

- For example if you trash an Estate, you look at the top two cards of your deck, put one into your hand, and discard the other one.
- You can trash the Raze itself; normally it costs , so you would look at two cards.

Secret History
For a while we tried a card in the Apprentice / Salvager family that gave you a mix of +1's of your choice for trashing a card. It was cwazy, today's word of the day. I dropped +Cards from it and it was still cwazy. We kept giving it chances but I also tried some alternatives. Raze copied the earlier Disciple but based on the size of the trashed card. The mix of +1's thing let you trash itself, so I put that on Raze, and I liked everything about Raze so it got the slot.
