Exhaust

The keyword that removes a card from the rest of the fight.

Exhaust is a keyword in Slay the Spire. An Exhausted card goes to the Exhaust pile and cannot be used again for the rest of that combat, though cards from your deck come back once the fight ends. A card can be Exhausted because it Exhausts itself when played, because another card Exhausts it, or because it is Ethereal and still in your hand at the end of the turn.

Background

Self-Exhausting cards tend to be stronger than others at the same cost, and Exhausting other cards can be useful for clearing Curses or Status cards out of your hand.
