  • After effectively blocking a projectile, Isaac will briefly flash blue. Isaac in this state can still take damage from another projectile.
  • Can block:
    • Fireballs (e.g. from (Added in Repentance) (Crackle) Crackle), but their lines of fire harm Isaac.
    • Fire projectiles (e.g. from (Mega Satan) Mega Satan).
    • Obstacles thrown by (Added in Repentance) (Polty) Polty or (Added in Repentance) (Kineti) Kineti.
  • Does not block:
    • Explosive projectiles (e.g. from (Gurgle) Gurgle).
    • Lasers or beams.
    • Lines of fire from fireballs.
    • Projectiles from (Added in Repentance) (Big Bony) Big Bony, (Added in Repentance) (Coal Boy) Coal Boy, (Added in Repentance) (Danny) Danny.

Notes

• Although the mask is seen only on Isaac's face, projectiles still have a 50% chance to be blocked from any direction.

Interactions

• (Added in Afterbirth †) Cone Head: Blocking effect from either item can occur.
  • This leaves Isaac 60% chance to negate tears.
• (Added in Afterbirth †)(Holy Card) Holy Card / Holy Mantle: Infamy's chance of blocking projectiles is applied before the shield, allowing the shield to be saved.
• (Added in Afterbirth) Host Hat: Infamy's blocking effect is applied first. Host Hat does not fire tears when a tear is blocked by Infamy.
  • This leaves Isaac 60% chance to negate tears.
• Infamy: Additional copy of this item from such as (Added in Afterbirth) Diplopia / (Added in Afterbirth †) Crooked Penny has no effect.
• (Added in Afterbirth †) Metal Plate: Infamy's blocking effect is applied first. Tears blocked by Infamy are not reflected by Metal Plate.
  • This leaves Isaac 62.5% chance to negate tears in any way.
