Open rule →ShieldShield is a temporary layer that absorbs incoming damage before shared team HP.
Open rule →BurnBurn deals stacking damage twice per second, then loses one stack.
Open rule →PoisonPoison deals steady stacking damage once per second without natural decay.
Open rule →ShockDirect Damage triggers a separate Shock hit equal to the target's Shock stacks; Shock stays until removed.
Open rule →Cooldown SpeedCooldown Speed divides a Batomon's base cooldown, while added cooldown is applied afterward.
Open rule →MulticastMulticast is the total number of consecutive casts in one activation.
Open rule →Timing & activation
Know when abilities resolve and which effects can activate them again.

Open rule →Sudden DeathSudden Death begins at 30 battle seconds, then a sandstorm damages both teams every 0.5 seconds.
Open rule →Adjacency & TargetingThe six-slot 3×2 board uses orthogonal adjacency; diagonals are not adjacent.
Open rule →Permanent vs Battle-onlyPermanent effects carry into later battles; effects marked for this battle expire afterward.
Open rule →Debuff RemovalDebuff-removal effects remove the exact flat stacks or percentage printed by the current effect.
Open rule →Stat CapsDamage, Heal, Shield, Burn, Poison, Shock, and their multipliers cap at 999,999,999.
