What this is
In Tash-Kalar: Arena of Legends, players deploy their minions in magical formations to summon forth legendary creatures. After that, the player discards the card and the summoned being turns into a motionless piece which may be used in patterns for summoning other beings – or even be awakened and moved into combat by the effects of other cards. Players take turns placing their common pieces on the board, and if they succeed in creating patterns depicted on one of the cards in hand, they may play it.
