โš ๏ธ COMMON MISTAKES
  • โŒ Adding Stats to score (only Power!)
  • โŒ Canceling on opponent's turn
  • โŒ Hoarding Energy (it resets!)
  • โŒ Playing Multiply early (less total)
  • โŒ Playing Combo before other cards
  • โŒ Sabotaging before they pass
  • โŒ Forgetting Aura lasts all match
๐Ÿ’ก GAME RUNNER TIPS
  • First game? Remove Legendary, play 3 hands
  • Track passes! Hand ends when ALL pass
  • Chains: Let them finish before next player
  • Speed: Everyone scores simultaneously
  • Disputes: Use formula step-by-step
๐ŸŽฒ MECHANIC EXAMPLES โ€” Most Confusing Situations
๐Ÿ“ฃ Rally Timing

Rally says "+2 per card played"

You play: Action โ†’ Action โ†’ Rally โ†’ Action

Rally counts: 3 cards (itself + 2 after)

Bonus: +6 points

Play Rally early for max bonus!
โœ–๏ธ Stacking Multipliers

You have: ร—2 Spotlight AND ร—3 Spotlight

Your Spotlight stat = 4

Calculation: 4 ร— (2+3) = 4 ร— 5 = 20

NOT 4 ร— 2 ร— 3 = 24 (wrong!)

Same stat multipliers ADD, then apply once
๐Ÿ”— Link Chain

Play Link: "Link 2 Actions"

โ†’ Play Action A (free)

โ†’ Action A says "Draw 1, Link 1"

โ†’ Draw 1 card, Link another Action!

โ†’ Keep chaining until no more Links

No limit on chain length!
