About Champions[]

  • Champion cards start at level 11.
  • Champion cards have a unique gimmick special to their rarity, which are Abilities. Abilities are accessible from the bottom rightmost side of the screen, just above the player's “hand” in battle. They cost Elixir to cast, granting a Champion card a special ability depending on the Champion card, and will only stay as long as the Champion card is alive.
    • The average Elixir cost in the deck menu only counts the base Elixir cost instead of both the base and the ability.
  • Only one Champion card can be in a deck at a time.
  • Champion cards will not reappear until after they have died and 4 cards have been drawn from the player's Battle Deck. Their absence from the card rotation while alive can be taken advantage of to get to wanted cards quicker, commonly known as a 3 card Champion cycle.
  • Clone can be used on a Champion card, but the Champion card's ability will only be used by the original.
  • Mirror cannot be used on Champion cards. If the player's last played card was a Champion card, the Mirror will appear greyed out with a ? in place of the Elixir number. If the player's first card played was a Champion card, and they obtain a Mirror card by having it be dealt to their hand as the second card, the Mirror will again appear greyed out with a ? in place of the Elixir number. Attempting to deploy it while it is greyed will do nothing, and on the first attempt the text "Mirror cannot be deployed as a first card" will be displayed.
  • However, when a Champion card activates their ability 0.3 seconds before they die, the Elixir spent on the ability will be refunded 0.4 seconds after they die. [confirmation needed]
  • Currently, there are no Book equivalents for Champion cards, although the Book of Books and their respective Wild Cards will still work.
