Your turn first: play, then press End your turn. Their turn is shown one move at a time — press Continue (or Space) to go on — we pause whenever you can respond. Passing is often right: the lesson is when to stop passing.

Details

Your turn, then theirs, then yours. You're on 6: your Scuttle Crab (0) held Hunters' Circle (A) this turn. Kennen (5) holds B with Shadowblade Lurker (5), Exhausted; Nocturne, Horrifying (4), Tornado Warrior (3) and Fizz, Trickster (3) rest at his base, ready for his turn. Riven, Broken Blade (4, buffed: 5) is Ready at your base — "When I become exhausted, choose one that hasn't been chosen this turn: [Buff] me / Spend my buff to [Stun] an enemy unit / Spend my buff to ready me." In hand: Ki Burst (1; "[Action] As an additional cost to play this, exhaust a friendly unit. [Stun] a unit"), Bedeviling Stranger (2 Might, [Hidden]; "When you play me, choose a battlefield. If there are 4 or more units there, you may return an enemy unit there to its owner's hand") and Defy (1 + [Calm]; counter a spell of 4 or less). Five runes. Kennen is tapped out, with two cards in hand. Take B today, keep it through his turn, and its Hold wins.

How to play
  • Move: drag ready units onto a battlefield (or click units, then click where they go). They wait there, faded, until you press Confirm in the panel on the right — units that fight together must move together.
  • Runes: playing a card pays from them on its own. To float Energy or Power first, click a rune: Tap gives Energy, Recycle gives Power.
  • Cards: drag a card from your hand onto its target, or click it and then click the glowing target. The play waits in the panel on the right until you confirm it (Esc cancels).
  • Abilities:click your Legend (one click uses its ability), Gear, or a unit's ✧ badge.
  • Point at any card to see it large; right-click to read it. Hint, Undo and Retry are at the top.
