  • Pivot out if elite route pressure outscales current setup.

Common mistakes

  • Can underperform in low-draw decks.
  • May be weaker if scaling arrives too late.

When it spikes

Retain 3 usually spikes when your deck has enough draw + energy support and your route gives room to scale before major elites/bosses.
