Pink Magic Cards are more damage oriented and are split into two primary categories of Melee & Ranged skills. You can read up on all of the pink cards previously covered in last week’s blog post [b][url=https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1037130/view/3043839853303949171]HERE[/url][/b]. To those new to Dandy Ace, Magic Cards act as the skills players collect and use as they take on the different enemies and bosses encountered within the Cursed Mirror. Players are able to create countless combinations of skills and play styles by combining the different cards they come across on each run.

[b][h2]Sugar Dandy[/h2][/b] [code] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/34727433/e014d2753e2487f5df580c312ae248e118ae102b.png[/img] [/code] [b]Sugar Dandy[/b] is a long ranged Pink Magic Card. On use Ace will shoot a powerful arrow that gets stronger the longer Ace holds it down prior to firing. The arrow travels in a straight line, dealing damage to and piercing enemies until it reaches its max range. Any enemies hit will also gain the [b]Charm[/b] condition. Charm causes enemies to walk slowly towards Ace for a short period of time while also being locked out of attacking. The upgrade effect of Sugar Dandy varies depending on the type of card it is combined with. When used to upgrade Yellow and Blue Magic Cards, the skills will apply Charm to enemies on hit. If used to upgrade a Pink Magic Card, the card gains [b]Broken Hearts[/b]. Any enemies affected by Charm will take increased damage from the skill.

This Pink Magic Card is a ranged skill allowing Ace to send Dio, The Bat out at enemies and apply a [b]Bleed[/b] condition on hit. Dio, The Bat will travel in a straight line very quickly and return right back to Ace on skill reactivation. Enemies can be hit both ways and the Bleed condition will also apply on each hit. Bleed will cause enemies to take damage over a short period of time. As an upgrade Dio, The Bat continues to bleed enemy health down. Upgrading a card with Dio, The Bat will add [b]Death Bleed[/b] to the skill on hit. When an affected enemy dies, they will spread Bleed to all nearby enemies causing them to take damage over a short period of time.

On activation Ace creates a poisonous cloud dealing damage to enemies within it and also applying a [b]Poison [/b]condition to them. Poison causes enemies to take damage over a short period of time and stacks with other similar conditions. The upgrade effect adds Poison on enemy hit to whichever card Toxic Spray is combined with. [img]https://i.ibb.co/WWTJRT9/Toxic-Spray-GIf.gif[/img] [h2][b]Blossom Blast[/b][/h2] [code] [img]https://i.ibb.co/ctd0rdJ/Blossom-Blast.webp[/img] [/code] [b]Blossom Blast[/b] is a powerful AOE based Pink Magic Card that can be cast at range. Ace casts the skill on an area, exploding after a brief delay. Any enemies caught within the radius will take significant damage. Blossom Blast will add [b]Blooming Burst[/b] to a skill if used as an upgrade. Blooming Burst deals additional explosive burst damage after a short delay after hitting an enemy. [img]https://i.ibb.co/d44hwPw/Blossom-Blast-Gif.gif[/img] [h2][b]Crushing Hand[/b][/h2] [code] [img]https://i.ibb.co/wMc7LLX/Crushing-Hand.png[/img] [/code] [b]Crushing Hand[/b] is a melee Pink Magic Card with a powerful upgrade effect. On activation Ace will drop a giant fist down directly in front of him, crushing and damaging anything beneath it. Crushing Hand also benefits from an added bonus called [b]Calculated Risks[/b]. While Ace is under 50% HP, Calculated Risks will cause Crushing Hand to deal more damage. Upgrading a card with Crushing Hand adds[b] Life Siphon[/b]. When damaging an enemy with the upgraded skill Ace will receive some health back. This effect does have an internal cooldown so Ace won't be able to constantly heal but can come in handy when you find yourself out of tea and cupcakes!

On use Ace will throw a magical card that travels in a straight line. When the skill is activated again the card will explode dealing damage to all enemies near it. When used as an upgrade Trump Card adds [b]Illusion of Life[/b] to the upgraded skill. Illusion of Life causes enemies with more than 50% remaining HP to take additional damage from the skill.

On use Ace will throw out 3 poisonous roses at once. Each rose can deal damage and apply the [b]Poison[/b] condition to enemies on hit. If played at the appropriate range, the roses can intersect and deal the full damage of all 3. This skill is charge based so Ace will be able to use the skill multiple times before having to wait for each charge to individually come back off cooldown. Poison Roses adds [b]Death Poison[/b] to any card it upgrades. When an enemy affected by Death Poison is killed, they will spread Poison to all nearby enemies. Poison causes enemies to take damage over a short period of time. [img]https://i.ibb.co/jkHGs4r/Poison-Rose-Gif.gif[/img] [h2][b]Flurry of Blows[/b][/h2] [code] [img]https://i.ibb.co/y66h9TK/Flurry-of-Blows.webp[/img] [/code] [b]Flurry of Blows[/b] is a melee based Pink Magic Card. When used Ace will strike in front of him with a flurry of blows. Ace is unable to move for a short period while the skill is active. All enemies caught within the attack will take damage. Flurry of Blows adds [b]Accumulated Pain[/b] to any card it upgrades. With Accumulated Pain the upgraded skill will deal additional damage to any enemies affected by Bleeding, Burning, or Poison conditions. [img]https://i.ibb.co/fNHDmWt/Flurry-Of-Blows-Gif.gif[/img] [h2][b]Spark Tornado[/b][/h2] [code] [img]https://i.ibb.co/HNFR6Tq/Spark-Tornado.webp[/img] [/code] [b]Spark Tornado[/b] is a close ranged AOE Pink Magic Card. On activation Ace conjures a tornado around him. For each enemy hit by the tornado, Spark Tornado will deal additional damage thanks to its added bonus [b]Rampage Surge[/b]. When upgrading a card with Spark Tornado, the skill will earn[b] Fast Cast[/b]. Fast Cast allows the upgraded skill to be cast faster than normal. [img]https://i.ibb.co/s9zLjL0/Spark-Tornado-Gif.gif[/img] [h2][b]Hack N’ Slash[/b][/h2] [code] [img]https://i.ibb.co/VNckXdD/Hack-N-Slash.png[/img] [/code] [b]Hack N' Slash[/b] is a melee based Pink Magic Card. On activation Ace will quickly strike in front of him dealing damage to all enemies caught in the slash. This skill has a short range but a very short cooldown of .1 seconds allowing it to be used over and over. [img]https://i.ibb.co/NYW98Gk/Hack-NSlash.gif[/img] Hack N’ Slash works very well when upgraded with cards that can utilize its fast attacks or increase its potential range, such as with the size increase provided by [b]Hungry Chomper[/b]. As an upgrade, Hack N' Slash adds [b]Perfect Execution[/b] to a card. Perfect Execution causes enemies below 50% HP to take extra damage from that skill.
