Lifebar
From CMC Wiki
Lifebar is an ability where all life changes to a monster are reduced to 1. Before the release of Mechanical Chaos, this ability was called Radd Effect or Radd Life after Kid Radd.
It appears on the cards as (Lifebar) in the text of the card.
This can be beneficial, in the case of facing monsters with large attack power, or detrimental, in the case of somebody fielding lots of Kelar Towers or other sources of repeated small damage. This mechanic was first seen in War of the Webcomics.
Note that temporary life changes are also reduced to 1, but they are counted seperately. For example, casting Valian's Resolve on a newly summoned Kid Radd will make it an undizzy 50/6, +1 life from the +10 life gain and an additional temporary +1 for the +30 temporary life gain.
The exception where life changes are not reduced to 1 is when they are changed through a Life Set type ability, such as from Life Pickup or Laser Surgeon.
