Take it Like a Man

Are you at 5 damage? Are you incapable of defending against every attack that comes your way?

Declare, "No Guard." It's as simple as that! Well, most of the time. If it's a special case of one of the attacks being stupid huge and the only reason you can't guard, just let that one go. Conserving cards is always a good play, even when you're losing and need that heal.
