Combatant Card


 * Combatants are represented by the hand symbol AND THE WORD COMBATANT IF YOU'RE BLIND


 * The thumb represents their alignment.


 * A combatant will have an extra symbol (usually having to do with the character) which will be used for other effects.


 * A combatant will have two other categories that serve no real purpose (except in certain cases).


 * Combatants have three attacks: one large damaging attack, one battle cancel, and one lesser damaging attack with an effect.


 * ATK is the determining factor, the combatant with the higher ATK wins and attacks the opposing User directly. The losing combatant is put into the discard pile.


 * The battle cancel does not cancel effects.


 * The lesser damaging attack always carries an effect that activates if the combatant isn't slaughtered.

In a nutshell it usually works like rock paper scissors. Rock = Large damaging ATK, Paper = Battle Cancel, Scissors = Minor damage + Effect.
