In Game
Followers cards are summoned in the player's area of the board and attack either enemy followers or the enemy leader.
- Followers can't attack on the turn they are played unless they have the ability Rush or Storm.
- When one follower attacks another, both followers take damage according to the other follower's attack. If the enemy follower's attack is higher than the player's follower's defense, the friendly follower is destroyed and becomes a shadow.
- When a follower attacks the enemy leader, its defense decrease according to the attacking follower's attack.
Evolution
Evolving levels up a follower. Evolved followers might gain attack, defense, and other useful effects.
- After 4 turns, players can start evolving followers using Evolution Points. If a player went first, they receive 2 Evolution Points. If a player went second, receive 3 Evolution Points.
- Followers can only be evolved once per turn through the use of Evolution Points or any number of times with card effects.
- When a follower is evolved, it gains the ability to attack enemy followers on the same turn it was played.
Tapping on a card opens a window showing the card's details. This window contains detailed information about the unevolved and evolved forms of followers. Tapping the Evolve button from this window evolves followers, the same effect is archieved by manually dragging an Evolution Point towards the follower you want to evolve.
