What Ivern Rewards
Green Father · printed ability
“When you conquer or hold, you may exhaust me to replace that battlefield with a Brush battlefield token. (Bird, Cat, Dog, Poro, and Ivern units have +1 Might in Brush. It can be swapped back when scored.)”
Ivern is built around making conquers matter; the fun is turning a battlefield win into more than just the normal point.
How it plays
The Game Plan
Ivern wins by changing the terrain. Conquer or Hold first, then turn that battlefield into Brush so the right unit types get +1 Might there and the opponent has to fight on your terms.
Strengths
- Transforms battlefields into Brush
- Creates tribal home-field advantage
- Triggers from conquer or Hold
Watch Outs
- Needs to win or Hold first
- Brush only buffs specific unit types
- Can be slow without supported units
Turn by Turn
- 1Early: prioritize units that benefit from Brush before replacing battlefields.
- 2Midgame: conquer or Hold, exhaust Ivern, and convert the battlefield into terrain your units use better.
- 3Late: defend Brush zones with the tribes that get +1 Might there and force awkward enemy attacks.
New to this Legend? Pick Ivern if you like controlling the map itself, not just the units on it.
