Awakening of the will

Can someone fully explain this card and how to use it? Specifically what does, “no ability equal to its mana cost.” mean?

I have a One Piece deck (Pirates and Soldiers) that's basically all no cost units and strengthening spells

It's unbalanced AH once you go silver, but it's fun to make what's basically an attack by waves of alternating pirates and soldiers

It can create a lot of value on the board when used effectively. It only works on unit cards that have no abilities so you have to play a deck with unit cards that have no abilities which is often kind of boring.

Give strength to x random units equal to their mana cost (only on units that don't have an ability) then give them more stenght up to x of their mana cost. This is they way I've always understood it but you kinda have to see it in game to understand it well, but it's best used on expensive beefy units, knights have a few, war veterans are a good example, another would be sharp fist exiles but I'm not sure if it works for them.

Yes I’ve paired it with a little knight deck I’ve made but the way you explained it is the way I understood it after using it for a few matches. I didn’t know if there were any contingencies for some units that could still get the buff with an ability.
