MASTER TRAINER FORMAT

Master Trainer is a community-built multiplayer singleton format for 2–4 players. Choose a persistent Master, build around a single Apex, and unleash a once-per-game Paragon as the table develops into a long-form tactical battle.

The format uses Player Life, Energy Sources, an Energy Pool, battlefield positioning, instant-speed Items, and multiplayer politics to create a slower, strategic card game experience.
