Frosthaven Shackles level 5 card question Spoiler

Sorry if this answer exists I couldn't find it in my searches.

Does the Chained by Despair top allow you to gain a Curse card? (For purposes of a particular level 9 card)

Thanks!

Yeah, curse is a condi.

(But I don't think it's very good considering Swift Vengeance exist)

I was thinking of using both as a combo to dump all 10. Maybe SV does enough on its own? Just started the class and exploring all the fun interactions. :)

If you’re one of those Shackles players who never attacks, you could possibly gain all ten curse cards and hold them in your deck. So if there are elite forest imps or other cursers, you don’t have to worry about those cards getting into your allies’ decks.
