Before Unit selection, players must first select a Summoner. These powerful cards buff (or help) your team, debuff (or hurt) your opponent's team, or grant abilities. Some summoners require you to select individual Units to buff, debuff, or grant abilities to before the first round of the battle. Your selected Summoner will call forth Units from their element(s) for team selection. Only one summoner may be selected per battle and will fill the Your Summoner slot in your lineup as indicated by the green box below.

Components of Summoners include:

    • There are four rarities: Common, Rare, Epic, and Legendary.

Summoners of Note

While many Summoners are quite straightforward, certain Summoners warrant a more detailed explanation.

Dragon Summoners

Dragon Summoners grant players access to Dragon Units and one other element. After choosing a Dragon Summoner, you will be prompted to select an additional element.

Neutral Summoner

Rebellion Summoners

Tactics Summoners

The Rebellion tactics Summoners grant players access to a screen where they may view their opponent’s team before the battle and decide which Units to buff, debuff, or grant abilities to.

Common Multi-Element Summoners

Increasing the Level of Your Summoners

: The scarcity and relative strength of cards.

: The numerical amount of Mana required to call a Unit to battle.

Buffs/Debuffs: Increases or decreases to the of Units on their or opposing teams.

: Special skills that Summoners may grant to Units.

: Summoners belong to one or two specific Elements (Fire, Water, Earth, Life, Death, or Dragon) or are Neutral.

: The strength of a card can be increased by combining copies of that same card into it.

The only neutral Summoner in existence, , grants players access to Neutral Units and one other element. As with Dragon Summoners, you will be prompted to select an accompanying element after choosing Lux Vega for battle. Please note Lux Vega is not available in the Taking Sides .

The Rebellion set introduced two new play mechanics. Summoner Tactics, and Multi-element team selection. Review for additional details regarding the Rebellion set release.

The number of Units the boost or ability may be applied to is shown at the base of the card - as indicated by the green rectangles. For example, allows you to increase the attack of ranged Units by 2, or provide the to 1 Unit.

The common multi-element Summoners do not provide buffs, debuffs, or abilities to your team. Rather, they grant players access to two elements (and neutral Units) at a relatively low mana cost of 3. For example, grants players access to fire and death elements. Be warned! If a specific element is excluded from a battle, multi-element summoners will NOT grant access to that element.

Instead of gaining abilities and stats when leveled up, Summoners can call forth higher-level Units at each new level. Review .

Unsure of where a summoner falls? Click on a summoner within the Splinterlands Market or your inventory. Next, locate the Stats tab. At Level 5, is a Common dual-element Summoner that can call forth Level 3 Rare Units.
