Changes: Retain

Revision as of 14:47, 6 February 2020

Retain is a keyword that allows you to keep cards in your hand after the end of turn. Some cards have the Retain keyword built in to the card, which lets you keep that card at the end of turn.

Cards with Ethereal still exhaust at the end of your turn even if you attempt to retain them.
