Duelists of Darkwana: Seth's character board

While this Support is on your side of the field, you will, at the end your turn, deal 2 points of damage to any 1 opponent.

Combine this with his Items, and you can quickly put the game out of your opponents' reach.

While this Support is on your side of the field, you will, at the end of your turn, deal damage equal to the number of cards you drew that turn.

Yes, that includes the card you drew during your draw phase.

No, this does not include the 3 cards in your opening hand.

Like Olivia, this pairs well with Seth's Items.

Remember that when more than 1 card triggers at the same time, such as at "the end of your turn," the player taking their turn decides in which order those cards resolve (a card's individual effects always resolve in the order they're written).

If you have Seth's Item, Angel's Sword, in play, which allows him to draw 2 cards when he lowers an opponent's hit points, the order in which you resolve things matters.

If Yukari damages an opponent at the end of Seth's turn, and Seth afterwards triggers Angel's Sword to draw 2 cards, this will not reactivate Yukari a second time at the end of the same turn, meaning Yukari won't deal an extra 2 points of damage for the 2 cards Seth just drew via Angel's Sword.

HOWEVER, if Seth has, let's say, Oliva, Yukari, (both have "end of your turn" triggers), and Angel's Sword on his side of the field, Seth COULD trigger Oliva first, dealing 2 damage and thus triggering Angel's Sword, causing him to draw a card. THEN Seth could trigger Yukari, dealing damage equal to all the cards Seth drew that turn, in this case including the 1 Angel's sword netted him.

In this example, Seth COULD trigger Yuakri before Olivia, but that would result in dealing 1 points fewer damage via Yukari (because Yukari would've, in that case, triggered BEFORE Angel's Sword).

Order of operations matters.

Ramp (gaining extra attribute points) is great.

In true Seth style, this is the simplest, repetitive ramp imaginable.

While Jason Riggs is on your side of the field, you will, at the end of turn, gain 1 point in the attribute of your choice (they all max at 5 points).

Note that when a card's trigger box says something like "the end of your turn" or "the start of your turn" or anything like that, it means each of your turns for as long as that card is on your side of the field.

In the early to mid game, Jason Riggs helps you stay ahead of your opponents.

The longer the game goes, the less this Support does for you.

Given Seth's fast-punching nature, though, his matches often never see what "late game" looks like.

Still, if you reload (which Seth rarely does, given his ability), Jason Riggs is a good card to banish, as it's probably already done its work by that point.

When you play this Event, shuffle up to X cards from your discard pile into your deck, where X equals the number of points you have in Influence.

Afterwards, you gain an action.

Don't forget this part!

That might seem redundant, given Seth's ability, but doing it multiple times for "free" (so to speak, considering the extra action this card gives you) is far better than once at the cost of an action (which is what Seth's ability gives you).

This Event's second effect essentially gives you a 100% rebate on the action you spent to play it, making this card "sort of free" to play.

Only sort of, though.

You still need to an action to spend playing it, you'll just get that action back when you're done.

This is also useful when you want to draw a lot of cards via Angel's Sword (one of Seth's Items) just to power-up a lot of damage with Yukari (one of Seth's Supports).

While this Level 2 Item is on your side of the field, you may, every time you lower an opponent's hit points, you may draw 1 card from your deck, adding it to your hand.

This can result in excellent card draw, which can power-up his Support card, Yukari.

Angel's Sword gives great value in the early game, but as Seth's deck thins (as it will) this card will provide less card advantage.

(artwork coming soon)

While this Item is on your side of the field, up to once during EVERY player's turn, whenever you would lose hit points, lower that damage by the number of Items you control (Bokken counts itself).

Yeah, Seth can parry.

Ignoring 1 to 3 points of damage every turn is a great way to stay in the game.

Note, if you're opponent throws damage at you, you can choose to take it, rather than activate Bokken's effect (saving the effect for, perhaps, a separate instance of damage you expect to otherwise take during that same turn).

There's little reason to do this, though.

Yes, Bokken can reduce the cost of spending hit points to activate effects, however, Seth's deck doesn't have any cards that require you to spend your hit points.

However, there's such a thing as Draft Mode (see "other modes of play"), and this "price reduction" can count for a lot under those circumstances.

Ever wonder what you opponent looks like sobbing uncontrollably in the fetal position?

Find out with Arondight!

As long as this Level 4 Item is on your side of the field, all your attacks deal 2 extra points of damage.

Your opponents are on a serious, unforgiving clock once Arondight comes down.

If you're playing against Seth, & you notice he's investing a lot of points in Knowledge, you better get some removal handy and sit on it, because you'll want to blow this Item up the second it shows its ugly face.

Deal with Seth's cards before they deal with you, folks.

When you play this Event, you'll deal damage equal to your Knowledge.

Afterwards, gain 1 point in any attribute (they all max at 5 points).

Remember to perform your card effects in the order they're written.

"I Play . . . the Race Card!"

(I swear I didn't design this just to make that joke)

When you play this Event, swing at an opponent's hit points with damage equal to your Combat.

Afterwards, draw up to 1 card.

Seth's nuke, Mount Tantrum, is the only card in the game (thus far) directly affected by 2 attributes.

In this case, when you play Mount Tantrum, you'll deal damage equal to your Combat PLUS your Knowledge.

With a full bar (5 points) in each, this card swings for 10 points of damage (half life bar)!

Token destruction is important, and Seth has the most explosive . . . in terms of how MANY tokens he can remove with a single card.

The downside is that this card does nothing else, making it useless in any situation with no tokens worth destroying.

When you play this Event, you'll destroy a number of tokens equal to or fewer than TWICE the number of points you have in Combat.

Remember that, with token destruction, you can mix and match your targets, blowing up any combination of Stamina, Bleed tokens, Relics, or whichever tokens future sets of Duelists offer.

If you're playing against Seth, and he's investing in Combat, be aware that he can deal easily with large numbers of tokens.

When you play this Event, destroy (and sends to their discard pile) a number of Items on the field.

That number can be as high as the number of points you possess in Combat.

Like Seth's other card, Assassinate, Spiral District only does one thing, though it does it very well.

If he hasn't worthwhile Items to destroy, Spiral District becomes dead weight in Seth's hand.

However, with this card in hand, Seth can wipe the board of any pesky Items.

If you're playing against Seth, and he's investing in Combat, be aware that he can deal easily with Items.
