What it does

Burned Tower

This card stays in play when you play it. Discard this card if another Stadium card comes into play. If another card with the same name is in play, you can't play this card. Once during each player's turn, that player may flip a coin. If heads, the player searches his or her discard pile for a basic Energy card, shows it to his or her opponent, and put it into his or her hand.

The key ability lets you look through the cards that have been discarded during the game. If you flip heads you find a basic Energy card and add it to your hand, giving you more resources to attack with.
