Now, I could try to explain in my own words what that means or how they work within the rules, but that has proven dangerous in the last few weeks (did I mention that when you use a splice ability the card remains in your hand?), so instead I will refer you to the Champions of Kamigawa FAQ: Flip Cards The Champions of Kamigawa set contains ten "heroes" that are easily recognizable by their unique card frame: Akki Lavarunner -- Tok-Tok Volcano Born Budoka Gardener --Dokai, Weaver of Life Bushi Tenderfoot --Kenzo the Hardhearted Initiate of Blood --Goka the Unjust Jushi Apprentice --Tomoya the Revealer Kitsune Mystic --Autumn-Tail, Kitsune Sage Nezumi Graverobber --Nighteyes the Desecrator Nezumi Shortfang --Stabwhisker the Odious Orochi Eggwatcher --Shidako, Broodmistress Student of Elements --Tobita, Master of Winds You ignore the information on the bottom half of the card until the creature in play "flips" when certain heroic conditions are met
If you can resist opening them (easier said than done), they can be great long-term investments
For instance, a Water and Psychic-type pokmon (like Starmie) is weak to Electric, Grass, Bug, Ghost, and Dark types
Thunderclap 5 We are now moving into the realm of the cost reducers
Players will want to try and take this card out before it attacks to keep their decks intact
It punishes hesitation but rewards boldness
