Strategy
Frontloaded Blast does what it says, doing a lot of up-front damage while creating future problems for you. Unfortunately for this card, frontloaded damage isn't particularly valuable in this game - damage ultimately doesn't do anything unless the enemy is dead, for the most part. So the fact that this costs you 4 draws is a really significant penalty unless you use this card as a finisher - which it can do, especially with Weaken Hull B and paired with other offense. But be really careful with this card.
Its A upgrade reduces the amount of Fumes you get by one, making it cost 3 draws instead of 4. It still struggles to justify its cost of 3 draws.
Its B upgrade instead reduces its Energy cost by 1, which is nice if you're looking to assemble a killing volley with it to make sure the enemy's dead before those Fumes matter.
