HOW TO PLAY

  1. Check the active deck before each fight and anticipate what E and F will do.
  2. Under pressure, choose Healing Hearts’ bounce or cleanse according to what allies need.
  3. Use Breaking Spades during allied focus fire so healing reduction has follow-up damage.
  4. Give Ragin’ Royal Flush to an ally ready to act and call the timing.
COMMON MISTAKE

Forgetting a deck switch and using an attack when a heal was needed.
