Bees Within is a sigil which creates a Bee in your hand when a card bearing the sigil takes damage. This card will always create a Bee in the player's hand, regardless of whether the card is on the player's side of the field or their opponent's.
Strategy[]
In Battle[]
A card with this sigil should be placed opposite a card with low Power (ideally, a Power of one) to maximise the amount of bees acquired. As for the bees that are created, they can be used in several ways: sacrificed to play more powerful cards, played to block direct damage or played to attack the opponent directly in order to finish an encounter quickly. If blocking damage is not a concern, then this card is best played in a lane threatened by multiple enemies to acquire bees more quickly, which is possible if adjacent enemies possess Bifurcated or Trifurcated Strike. Avoid placing this card in harm's way of a card with Touch of Death.
Deckbuilding[]
In order to maximise the amount of bees acquired, this sigil is best on a card with high Health, which can be achieved either through Campfires or by transferring this sigil to a card that already possesses high Health (such as a River Snapper). That being said, if a card bearing this sigil has any Power, then it may end up defeating its opponent, thereby stopping the creation of bees.
The Stinky sigil can be used to make the opponent less threatening and thereby increase the amount of bees created, though bees will stop being created entirely if this card is played opposite a 1 Power card. The Unkillable and Fecundity sigils allow for replaying a creature to create even more bees, especially if the card bearing this sigil has a low Cost.
As for the bees that are created, since they belong to the Insect tribe, they can benefit from insect totems. This can make them incredibly useful if sigils such as Sharp Quills, Many Lives, Trinket Bearer or Worthy Sacrifice are applied.
