But if you've played a Darkness, then it becomes the equivalent of having played a ] for x=1, which means you've just invested a card and a point of energy to get a card and a point of energy, a neutral trade that you usually don't want to be making. If you've played a Glacier to block all the upcoming damage, it's not too bad. So they usually trade-off raw card strength for potential value. The orb-generating cards of the Defect are balanced around the fact that you will be able to take advantage of the orbs for the following turns. Yeah the energy/draw aspect of it is the strongest part of it, but you should not underrate the trade-off of playing it unupgraded because the orbs you are sacrificing don't come from nowhere, they are there because you've invested cards and energy to get them.
