This is a niche upgrade. Sure, you get +2 to the things you were testing before (foot/fist/brain), and you can put on book tests (which is great news if you’re Trish), but there are a lot of great cheaper rogue cards. I can see this fitting into Winifred once you pass 30 XP and have all the assets and events you’re looking for. You can spend up to three, which means spending zero is possible, but at that point, you spent 3XP to add a pip to unexpected courage.
It can be fun in a Dark horse deck: you keep taking resources during your upkeep (up to 3), at some point you commit "Watch this !" and spend all your resources, which gets you the Dark horse bonus (so you are at +4 for this test) and after the test you have a lot of resources to end your set-up. For example to play Leo de Luca.
