Animation Throwdown Guide: Complete List of Skills & Their Effects

Some cards in Animation Throwdown, usually the combo cards, and rare ones, will have one or more skills that they will use in the game. There are currently 19 skills in the game and I am here to share a complete guide to them in the table below, a guide that is easy to follow and will help you better understand the skills and their advantages or offer you a quick go-to place in case you need to find out what a skill does and do it fast.

So let’s not waste any time and let’s check out below Touch, Tap, Play’s Animation Throwdown guide to skills and the effect they have in the game!

Skills are extremely important when deciding the strategy you will use in each game and knowing what each one does by simply seeing the icon on the card can help a lot. Remember that each skill has a number near it, indicating the amount of its effect. For example, if there’s a 2 near the Boost icon, it means that the card will get +2 attack each time you play a combo.

Also, there is an extra symbol that can sometimes appear on some cards. That’s a star symbol and it means that the skills of that particular card will only apply to cards from the same show. For example, if there is a card with a star symbol from the Family Guy TV series and it also has a Heal icon, it will only heal cards from the Family Guy show.

Now that you know how the skills work in the game, it’s time to actually check them out. We have a list below of all the skills in the game and you can check it out for quickly learning about all the in-game skills in Animation Throwdown – The Quest For Cards!
