The Blank Mask's summoned copy is a near-perfect replica of the targeted card. It keeps all [[Stats#Buffs|buffs]] and [[Stats#Debuffs|debuffs]] and has the same {{Stat|health}}, {{Stat|attack}}, {{Stat|Counter}}, {{Stat|Frenzy}}, and abilities. If the targeted card has {{Stat|Resist Snow}} (only possible if that card is a [[Shade Wisp]] copy of an enemy with Resist Snow), the copy also will have it. However, its Counter starts at the maximum value (not at whatever the targeted card's Counter was), and it gains the [[Stats#Keywords|Summoned]] ability.

If the targeted card has {{Stat|Resist Snow}} (only possible if that card is a {{Card|Shade Wisp}} copy of an enemy with Resist Snow), the copy also will have it. However, the copy does ''not'' keep any [[Stats#Debuffs|debuffs]], its Counter starts at the maximum value (not at whatever the targeted card's Counter was), and it gains the {{Keyword|Summoned}} ability.


The Blank Mask is at its strongest when the deck already has a powerful [[Companions|Companion]] upgraded with a lot of [[Charms]], making a copy with the same power level. However, it also shines in sacrifice-focused decks, giving extra copies of sacrificial Companions like [[Egg]] and [[Chikichi]].

Take full advantage of [[Crowns]] to maximize the Blank Mask's effectiveness. Any Companion with a Crown is likely a key player, and giving another Crown to the Blank Mask deploys a second one immediately. Alternatively, if the [[Leaders|Leader]] is the powerful Companion in question, copying them is just as effective. Relying on naturally drawing the Blank Mask or the Companion to copy allows bad luck to undermine the deck, as it can't be guaranteed to draw both cards simultaneously unless the deck has so few cards that the whole deck is drawn at once.

Relying on naturally drawing the Blank Mask or the Companion to copy allows bad luck to undermine the deck, since it's not guaranteed to draw the Companion before drawing the Blank Mask. However, since powerful Companions usually are the first candidates for Crowns anyways, this is usually a non-issue.


Since the copy gains the Summoned ability, it cannot be recalled and will lose 1 health at the end of any turn it triggers. Keep this in mind if the card to copy has low health or will take hits.
