Strategy
Basic Swap is a utility card for the Gemini, letting you switch cannons with little other consequence. The fact that you have to play it before you see the card it draws can make planning your turn a bit more difficult, however.
Its A upgrade draws another card - not that great on an Exhausting card, but if card draw is what you're looking for and there aren't other options...
Its B upgrade makes it not Exhaust, which is fairly marginal most of the time - it may let you plan your switches through longer fights, but other upgrades will generally do better. However, this upgrade does turn it into a 1-card infinite combo if you can draw the rest of your deck. You'll need Artifacts for this to actually be useful - Sharp Edges, Caffeine Rush, any Autopilot, and most of all Flywheel are examples of ways you can capitalize on playing this card over and over.
