You choose from different classes (such as Wizard, Ranger, or Mechanist), each with unique card pools and mechanics.
If you are looking at this specific version for a playthrough or "write-up" analysis, keep these points in mind:
Before picking a card, look at your current Talent tree. Some talents reward you for playing many cards in a turn, while others reward heavy-hitting single attacks.
You can invite up to two lieutenants to join your team. They come with their own mini-decks and specialized abilities, shifting the focus from solo survival to team synergy.
As you progress through a run, you unlock talents that provide permanent passive buffs, allowing for more build diversity than card drafting alone.
