FAQ

1. When I awaken a card, do I keep it and receive a new card, an alternative card?

During the awakening step, the original standard card is destroyed. In game terms, we say it's "burned." This burning process creates a new card, an alternative card with varying grades. In the end, you only have one card in your hand.

2. Can I awaken any card?

No, awakening can only be done with a fully enhanced standard card, at 100% potential. If it's not the case, you need to continue the Power up process.

3. Can all CTA cards be awakened?

No, Exclusive cards cannot be modified. Power up, awakening, and merging are not possible for this kind of card.
