 So here's the hypothetical situation. You use this, and your opponent smiles and puts up their Leaf Shield next turn, and... watches your Golden Compass sail past completely unblocked. :)

While much maligned for being completely blocked by Leaf Shield, as long as you're not using this as your main weapon(s), this offers some great icon variety to use with Golden Compass or Ramtors Spellbook. Mixing up your weapons can make it much harder for a defensive-minded opponent.

Alternatives: Pike Pike replaces the earth icons with light. Golden Compass is also similarly priced, and Psellias Fighting Fan, Stone Club, and Ice Club are cheaper 9-icon weapons.

Upgrades: Scuzzys Comb and Ramtors Spellbook deal 10 icons. Meukas Snot Trail deals more water and earth.

Defenses: Leaf Shield completely blocks this and then some. Frozen Wand of Crystals tops this.
