One of them, to get the effect repeatedly, is [[https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Legends:Elusive_Schemer Elusive Schemer]], which draws an extra card upon being played, and then upon being killed puts a 0-cost copy of itself with the same ability into your deck.

** [[https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Legends:Alduin Alduin]], who destroys all other creatures regardless of lane.

* EvolutionPowerUp: The unique ability of (most of) the Factotum creatures, Assemble. Summoning a Factotum (usually) has you pick between two different sets of bonuses (usually stat boost and/or a Keyword), which is then conferred not only on the summoned Factotum, but '''also''' to all other Factotums in the player's hand and deck. The bonuses become cumulative with each subsequent Factotum played, and the few defenses against the growing UnstableEquilibrium apart from combat include Destroying the Factotums or [[StatusBuffDispel Silencing]] them. And if they're protected from Destroy and/or Silence...

** There are two exceptions: On the bottom end, there's the Reflective Automaton which has no Assemble ability itself but [[DittoFighter counts as ALL Creature Types]], and then at the top there's the [[ArbitraryHeadcountLimit Legendary]] Assembled Titan which has ''4'' options for its Assemble- only two confer stat boosts to Factotums including itself, while the remaining choices either inflict 2 damage on an opponent or give you 2 life. And you get to pick from ''[[ArcNumber two]]'' with the Titan.

* {{Bowdlerise}}: The Chinese version edited a lot of cards in an attempt to keep the game from getting blocked. In many cases this meant filing down fangs/claws, removing random skulls, and giving skeletons some flesh. One of the more amusing changes is the card "Knife to the Throat" getting edited to have a ''[[https://i.imgur.com/HnSP5Xp.jpg stick]]'' instead of a knife.
