Locked cards keep their printed rules visible and identify the champion needed to unlock them.
Starter Deck is selected initially. Each named deck saves its edits automatically, including its Hero Power. Use Create a new deck to name an empty deck, Saved decks to switch between them, and Clear to empty the selected deck. Incomplete decks can be finished later.
The copy, pencil and bin buttons beside Saved decks duplicate, rename or delete the selected deck. A duplicate is selected straight away, so later edits change the copy and leave the original as it was. The Starter Deck always keeps its name and cannot be deleted. Choose Hero Power sits at the top of the deck list.
Cards sort by mana, lowest first; choosing a mana value sorts that result by rarity instead.
Phone battles use landscape orientation. Menus and deck editing also work upright. Swipe the hand to reach later cards.
Rules, sound controls and duel history are available during a duel. Use Menu on phones.
Minions belong to Magic, Nature, Tech or ALL, and have Good, Evil or Neutral alignment.
Relics are teal equipment cards carried by minions. The in-game How to play guide contains the full effect glossary.
