Game introduction

Tip of the week
Keep getting Earthquake when battling? Try focusing on Magic Attacks, Health, and Armour as flying types don’t get hit by earthquakes. However, do take that it’s likely your opponents are using flying types as well. This means they can sneakily avoid your extra melee attacks. Surprising them with a bit of magic and high health cards could be the ticket to winning.
