How does Accelerate work and what costs do you need to pay?
Ruling: To play a card with Accelerate, you pay the card's base energy cost plus 1 additional energy, and you recycle one rune of the power type shown in the Accelerate cost. Numbers represent energy costs (exhaust runes), while symbols represent power costs (recycle runes).
Sequence:
- Exhaust runes equal to the base energy cost plus 1
- Recycle one rune matching the power symbol shown in the Accelerate cost
- Example: A card with base cost 5 and Accelerate cost 1 fury power requires exhausting 6 runes total and recycling 1 fury rune
Nuances:
- The power type required for Accelerate always matches the card's domain type (shown in bottom right)
- Energy and power are two different resources, though runes can produce both
- Rainbow symbol represents power of any domain
