Battle of Wills

A Battle of Wills is a clash between the spirits of opposing units.

The attacker engages an Enemy, dealing its Willpower value as trauma against the defender's Willpower. The Enemy is defeated if traume reduces its Willpower to 0.

In a Battle of Wills, effects that increase or decrease a unit's Willpower can be used, and cards with "defeat" effects can be used against Minions. Since a Battle of Wills deals traume, Block has no effect, and cards that deal damage or apply progress cannot be used.

Against a Villain of Legend, the battle is both physical and spiritual. The Villain is only defeated when both its Health and Willpower are reduced to 0. See "Villain of Legend" for more information.
