LoR:Shark Chariot

1
Shark Chariot is a follower in Legends of Runeterra.
Notes[edit | edit source]
- Shark Chariot checks whether there are
Ephemeral attackers after the attack has been committed, and revives itself if there are. As such, 
Attack effects that create Ephemeral attackers (such as 
6Hecarim and 
2 Emperor's Dais) will trigger Shark Chariot's revive. - If the Battlefield is already full, Shark Chariot will not attempt to revive.
Trivia[edit | edit source]
- Internally, this card is called Shark Geist Chariot.
- There is a Guardian inspired by this card called Gloomtooth.
- The version of this card from before V0.9.4 would still return to play attacking after dying if its text was removed by
Silence, and were not affected by effects that affected copies of Shark Chariots everywhere, due to the way the text was worded. The text was changed to be more consistent with other similar cards, and to allow for more ways for the opponent to respond to it.

RegionEvery card in Legends of Runeterra is sorted into a region based off a canon region of 
Runeterra. Cards within a region tend to share mechanics such as certain keywords and tend to synergise well with each other, and combining cards from different regions can lead to unique synergies and playstyles, with their own strengths and weaknesses. Game Modes and deckbuilding rules have specific restrictions on the number of regions that can be in a deck.
ManaMana is the primary resource used to play cards in Legends of Runeterra.
Can't Block
Blockers (dragging the unit into the blocking position).
But they can still be forced to block by 
Challenged, or by swapping with the committed blockers, using card effects like 
2 Syncopation.

Ephemeral
units with Ephemeral will 
die after they 
strike or the round ends. Ephemeral is not removed if the unit survives.Ephemeral units dying to the keyword's effect are not slain. If they would die to a strike, they die to that instead of Ephemeral.

PowerDictates the damage a unit does in combat, whether attacking or defending. This value can be changed through various cards temporarily or permanently, but each card has a default Power that it returns to if effects are removed.
Collectible cards always have a Rarity gem at the bottom. Most effects which activate 
Random can only create Collectible cards.
Silence
Unit has all card text, keywords, and any buff effects removed.
New effects can still be applied to a Silenced unit. 
Aura effects (from another source) will re-applied to the Silenced unit . The Unit Groups and names are preserved - it still counts as a copy of a unit and member of the group.

A copy of a card is an instance of a card (same card code), with no consideration of any effects applied to it. Different from exact copy.
Something that applies everywhere applies to all instances of the specified card that exist or could ever exist that game, living, dead, in hand, in deck, in play, not yet created, in discard. No matter what, this effect applies to them. Although, the effect will only apply once to every card, and can be removed through normal effects that remove other card effects, like 
Capturing units, Silencing units or units Dying.

RuneterraUnlike other regions, Runeterra cards have unique deckbuilding rules, dictated by the origins of the cards in it, with only one card from Runeterra able to be put into the deck.
Champions Unit.
A champion is able to 
Level Up to transform it and every other allied copy of it in the game that could ever exist into a new card instantly, keeping all effects applied to it and damage taken, which has its own interactions as well. While there is an allied champion alive, any copies of it in hand are instead a Champion Spell.
FollowersFollowers are a type of unit card in 
Legends of Runeterra, with numerous cards that only interact with them.
Landmarks Legends of Runeterra that take up a space on the board, like units, but can't interact with the same mechanics as units - for example they can't Attack or Block (See also: 
Immobile), don't have 
Health or 
Power, and can't strike.Text that can affect Landmarks will explicitly refer to them.
Spells
speed of a spell dictates when it can be played, and whether the opponent can respond.
The Spell Stack: Once one or more Fast or Slow spells have been played, it can be responded / reacted to by the opponent with one or more Fast or Burst spells. Fast spells played are added to the stack, where the most recent one placed is the first to resolve. Once the response is confirmed by pressing the Button, the opponent has a chance to react, and this continues until both players pass. Only 10 spells can be on the stack at once, and the 10th spell may only be Burst.
Skill
spell-like card that can be committed by a unit. Goes on the Spell Stack like a Fast or Slow spell.
Skills are committed to enact a unit's card text in a way that can be reacted to. If card text creates a Skill, there will usually be an 
icon before the text to indicate this.
The text of skills is usually written as if it's on the unit itself, but they count as their own card. In particular, damage dealt by a skill is not dealt by the generating unit.
Equipment Legends of Runeterra that equip to a unit (called Bearer) as a separate entity. While equipped, it shares the stats buffs also its positive keywords to its Bearer. (This sharing cannot be interacted with).
Equipment can be played by 
Spell Mana.
