What to study

Between rounds, Battlegrounds deals three Fate cards and asks for one pick, and the draft screen keeps the whole match frame visible around the choice: the season track up top (ROUND 1, SPRING), the player's Lore and Kröwns at top right, and their portrait, ability icons and empty card slots along the bottom. The cards themselves carry the game's keyword system in plain sight, CIVILIAN, TOWER and UNIT are colour-coded in the text, costs sit on black ribbons (4 Lore for the cheap Blessing, 32 for the stronger pair), and a reroll chip under the trio prices a redraw at 4 Lore, so passing on all three is a costed decision too. Frame at about 0:26 in the Launch Trailer (Steam).
