Abilities
Aegis
Aegis protects a unit or player from one enemy spell or effect. It doesn't block friendly effects, nor does it stop battle damage from Killer attacks, Relic Weapons, or normal attacking and blocking.
Ally
Happens as soon as you have a unit of the named type. This can be when you play the unit with Ally or later if there's none of the needed type in play. Ally resets if the unit dies or is returned to hand.
Ambush
An ambush unit can be played at the end of the enemy player's turn, or any time they are attacking you. If you played against a Killer or Relic Weapon attack, an Ambush unit will jump in the way to block that attack.
Amplify
Cards with Amplify will let you repeat their effect when played if you have the extra power specified by the Amplify number. It is optional and may be used more than once.
Bargain
You can play this from your Market if you met its requirement in a single turn. If a Bargain is in your deck, you can build a Market.
Battle Skills
The Battle Skills are Aegis, Berserk, Charge, Deadly, Decay, Double Damage, Endurance, Exalted, Flying, Killer, Lifesteal, Overwhelm, Quickdraw, Reckless, Regen, Revenge, Unblockable, Taunt, Valor, and Warcry.
Berserk
Units with Berserk can make a special double attack one time: If it survives the first round of battle, it will attack again. This can only be used once, and gives the unit Reckless.
Black Market
A Black Market is a Market that can't contain any of the same cards as your starting deck.
Bolster
Once per turn, when you gain Health or Armor, do the listed effect.
Bond
When played, you may exhaust another unit of the same type to reduce this card’s cost by the exhausted unit’s strength.
Charge
Can attack the turn they are played.
Contract
You may pay the number in additional power to get its bonus. If you don’t have enough power to pay some or all of the Contract, the remaining balance is applied as “debt” that is paid at the start of the next turn.
Corrupted
When a unit with Corrupted dies, a 0 strength Nightmare Shade is played. Shades have the ability to sacrifice themselves by paying their corrupted cost to play the starting unit's Summon ability. Shades lose 1 health at the end of each of your turns.
Deadly
Units and spells with Deadly kill any unit they damage, regardless of health. For example, a 1/1 with Deadly can kill a 5/5 attacker.
Debt
Your available power is spent to pay off Debt. If you can't pay it all, you pay at the start of your next turn.

Emerge
After three turns, Shifted units emerge and get Unblockable that turn.
Empower
Does something when you play a power card.
Endurance
Units with Endurance ready at the start of each players turn, so they can attack and still be ready to block during the enemy turn. Additionally, they are completely immune to enemy stun and exhaust effects.

Imbue
When you play a unit with Imbue, you may stun one of your other units and keep it stunned. As long as it’s stunned, this unit gets its strength and health.

The special ability of a unit with Infiltrate occurs the first time that unit hits the enemy player. It doesn't work while the unit is on defense, such as when it is attacked by a Relic Weapon.
