Clarification
The Football this launches will destroy all Midrow Objects it passes through. If it's launched into another midrow object or vice versa, it will act as though it took 2 damage from the party responsible for this collision. (If a Heavy Missile is involved, the Football will be dealt 3 damage instead.)
If a Football collides with another Football, both are destroyed.
Strategy
Sport Orb is certainly an interesting card. It's hard to use as terribly reliable defense because of how it moves, and does not play well with Isaac, destroying his drones. It can be good situationally, but usually you'd rather take the choice of 3 Artifacts over this.
Its A upgrade makes it 0 cost, which is fine.
Its B upgrade adds 1 Droneshift — not the best value, but if Isaac isn't on your crew (and he probably shouldn't be if you're taking this), you probably don't have other sources of Droneshift, and with this in play, you might find a way to block a shot or two with it.
