SupporterBeginner to play

What this card does

You force your opponent to show you every card in their hand.

You pick one of those cards and move it to the bottom of their deck.

If you successfully hide a card, your opponent gets to draw one new card.

What it does

Ortega

Your opponent reveals their hand, and you choose a card you find there and put it on the bottom of their deck. If you put a card on the bottom of your opponent's deck in this way, your opponent may draw a card.

This card works by revealing your opponent's hand so you can choose which card to remove from play. It matters because taking away a key item or energy card stops them from playing effectively, even though they get to draw a replacement.

Which deck it belongs in

It suits decks that rely on specific cards to function, such as those needing particular Energy types or Supporter cards. It is less useful against decks that have many generic cards with no special effects.

Strengths
  • Disrupts strategy
  • Hides key cards
  • Ultra Rare rarity
Watch out for
  • Gives opponent a draw
  • Requires specific targets
Pro tip

Look for valuable Energy cards or powerful Supporter cards in their hand to hide, as these will hurt them more than basic cards.

Good to know

Ortega is a Trainer card from the Prismatic Evolutions set.
