'''Definition''':<br>
  
Cards with Ambush are able to attack opposing allies or heroes without being retaliated against in battle (e.g. Nightshade can attack a full health Jasmine Rosecult without Jasmine defending back and killing Nightshade). Generally, allies have this ability, although it can also be given to them by other card abilities (e.g. Lance Shadowstalker), and some heroes or weapons are able to have this ability as well. This ability was introduced in Call of the Crystals.

Definition:

A hero or ally with ambush will not receive any retaliatory damage when attacking an other ally or an other hero. In other words, the attacked hero or ally will not retaliate any combat damage back to the attacker.

Unidirectional Damage:

The main benefit of ambush is that it allows the attacker to deal damage without risking counterattacks from the attacked target. This makes it particularly valuable for allies with lower health who might not survive a regular combat exchange where they only damage the target.

Some statistics:

  • Shadow faction has 4 ambush allies, Human faction has 6, and Neutral faction has 4.
  • The Rogue class has 5 allies with ambush and three abilities that give ambush to allies, making it a key class for this ability.
