Easier Way to Tell Which Followers Trigger Skills?

Submitted 4 years, 10 months ago by

I know that by right-clicking a card, I can view all cards associated with it, which includes potential skills they trigger (like Chempunk Shredder). However, I would like to be able to tell at a glance if a unit's effect triggers right away (like a Burst spell) or if it uses a skill, which I could then respond to with spells of my own. I know, first-world problems and all, but it'd be a nice quality-of-life improvement. Unless I'm missing something and there's already a way to tell.

    I'm not entirely sure but I think that if they have a corresponding skill-icon (for lack of a better word) when you right click them, it means that their effect works like a non-burst spell, and if not it will happen instantly.

    Skills of followers are the "play, strike, attack" cards that affects the opponent. Effects like draw a card doesn't affect the opponent so they are not skills.

    - Augmented Experimenter deals damage to enemy unit

    - She Who Wanders obliterates opponent's cards

    - Commander Ledros deals damage to Nexus

    - Anivia deals damage to all enemies.

    - Chempunk Shredder deals damage to all units.

    You can see more cards that i didn't write here. Skills affect the opponent player so you can easily identify a card with a skill if it does something to the opponent like deal damage, destroy a unit, obliterate etc.

    Aha! I was wondering why "draw 1" didnt have the "play" keyword.

    That actually sounds very plausible. Thanks for elaborating :).

    I don't think the "Play" keyword is the deciding factor. That was my assumption at first, but the bartender guy that heals 3 also starts his effect with "Play," and he doesn't trigger a skill.
