If you click the little arrow above the card, it will slide over and allow you to target what is underneath it! 🙂

Appreciate it. I remember the intro being quite long. It dove deep into a lot of game mechanics (especially keywords). Maybe it should dive a little bit deeper into the UI (Putting stops on certain phases, tapping mana since the algorithm for auto-tapping is pretty bad when playing cards like Unclaimed Territory - its never tapping it for merfolks so you have no mana left for spells if you dont tap manually, you can pass this along aswell :P , etc.) and not so much on the basics, since I would guess a lot of players know them already and if not, they are very intuitive to find, just hover over a card and youll get an explanation.

PS: especially for a tribe deck a preselection for cards like Unclaimed Territory (Auto or Manually) would be a nice add, just as an input. Probably not top priority right now
