'''Crowns''' are items that can be given to any card to have it deploy with the leader at the start of a battle. They may be applied or removed at any time before a battle starts from the inventory. If added or removed after a battle starts, the change will for the following battles.
'''Crowns''' are items that can be placed on a card to have it deploy with the [[Leaders|Leader]] at the start of a battle. Between battles, Crowns may be freely removed and given to different cards; adding or removing Crowns in the middle of a battle will only affect future battles and not the current one.  


Crowns are mainly purchased from [[The Woolly Snail]]. They cost 80 [[Bling]], though only one is sold at each shop. Another crown may be purchased for another 80 Bling if the player encounters the shop event again later in the run. Additionally, 1 crown is guaranteed to be offered after defeating the first boss.
If a card with a Crown cannot be played for some reason (most commonly encountered with cards that have [[Stats#Keywords|Recycle]]), the player is forced to hit the Redraw Bell and discard all the unplayable cards. If a card is created by a card with a Crown (such as by a card with [[Stats#Keywords|Trash]]), that created card will ''not'' be playable as though it had a Crown. Attempting to play such a card displays a "Play Crowned cards first!" message. Additionally, any created cards will take up space in the player's starting hand, causing them to draw fewer cards; for instance, using the [[Bom Barrel]] and adding 4 [[Junk]] to the hand means that only 2 new cards will be drawn (as the hand size is 6).

Cursed Crowns are special crowns that appear while [[Tyrant Bell]] is active. Under said condition, cursed crowns have a chance to be offered in place of regular crowns whenever they are offered. Cursed crowns cannot be removed, and reduce the health and attack of the recipient card by 1 each, if such stat changes are possible.

Cursed Crowns ''cannot'' be removed from a card, and reduce the health and attack of the card by 1 each, if such stat changes are possible. Since they cannot be removed, Cursed Crowns are best applied to [[Items]] that are generically useful in any fight, rather than fight-specific counterpicks.

Crowns are exceptionally useful in guaranteeing a card is deployed (or used, if an [[Items|Item]]). It also saves a turn that would be needed to play the card. With multiple crowns, players can even add crowns to Items to buff other cards before the first turn of the battle. This tactic is helpful in avoiding relying on drawing the cards in the right order and taking turns deploying and using them.

Some cards, such as [[Krono]], have effects specific to cards with crowns.
[[Krono]] has a special effect that interacts with cards that do ''not'' have Crowns.
