Pirates are one of the six factions in Cards and Castles.
Pirates are thieving scoundrels who love treasure and will use any dirty trick they can to win in combat. Pirates have exclusive access to gold-generating abilities and are a debuff-focused faction. They use the following unique mechanics:
- TREASURE: Gain X gold at the start of your next turn.
- STUN: Prevents an enemy unit from moving, attacking or counter-attacking for one turn.
- RIPOSTE: Deals double damage on counter-attacks.
