Magic/Dice Flavours

Magic Types

Each of the 9 dice/magic typetypes has a certain flavour to them in terms of the card pools they support.support, but there is also a lot of overlap between them as well.

This graphic by UnderRugSwept outlines what makes Ashes magic types both distinct and similar. Be aware these are generalisations, and this isn't suggesting that magic types don't overlap with more than the 2 either side of them, or that the listed attributes only apply to the corresponding 2 magic types. It's just designed to capture the overall focus of each magic type, including the most prominent similarities between them and the things that set them apart.
