Virulent Touch

Description

The 2023 OUT expansion of the Flesh and Blood trading card game introduced OUT168, a strategic Assassin and Ranger action card featuring the unique Rainbow finish. Designed by Mark Poole, this 0-cost attack serves as a critical component for players seeking efficient resource management and aggressive board presence. As a Common rarity card, it provides accessible gameplay utility while the Rainbow parallel treatment adds significant visual appeal for collectors who appreciate the intricate foil patterns characteristic of this finish. In gameplay, Virulent Touch requires one pitch and delivers 4 power with 2 defense. Its distinctive effect triggers when the attack is defended by a card from the opponent's hand, creating a Bloodrot Pox token under the defending hero's control. This mechanic forces the opposing player to make difficult decisions about their hand retention, making the card a staple in decks that rely on tempo and resource denial. The card cannot be played directly from hand, requiring players to pitch other cards first, which adds a layer of strategic depth to its deployment. Collectors often seek the Rainbow variant of Virulent Touch for its shimmering aesthetic, which stands out in any collection. The OUT set's design language complements the card's aggressive theme, while the Rainbow finish elevates it beyond standard common cards. Whether you are building a competitive deck or curating a focused collection of Flesh and Blood parallels, this card represents a key piece of the OUT era. Its dual identity as a functional game piece and a visually striking collectible makes it a favorite among both serious players and finish-focused enthusiasts.
