How star fusion works
2 copies at the same ★ merge into 1 copy at the next ★. 4★ only exists in Rumble Chess. In regular Co-op, your partner's Minions get a blue star and don't merge with yours.Card analysis

Wiki deduction from the official text: Cajumystic copies part of the highest-ATK Minion's ATK, and this card piles a lot of ATK on a single Minion.

What the community says
BUsable, has a deck
A strong win condition, but it only clones the full ATK at 3★, and 3★ on a cost 8 is hard in PvP. Absurd against Bosses.

Variants
A base card and its Variants (I, II, III) can't be in the same deck. Variants inherit the base card's level. Get them in the Variant Recruit with Sprout Coins.

Community deck: Tomato Twister with Variants
A player's Discord deck built for early pressure, with Variants on most cards and the Candlemancer Badge: two Guaca Sage I at about 20 ATK each on turn 1, while Pop Gunner and Apple Sheriff clear the wave.

Get Tomato Twister early and stack buffs on it. Carrot Broker digs the Shop for 8-Cost Minions so you find it sooner.

Tomato Twister + Pomblaster + Shroomurai (JitteryKennon)
Pomblaster and Shroomurai clear the front line, and every kill gives Tomato Twister ATK. Once both are 3★, Math Melon gets bought, deployed and sold over and over.
Club Race 1/3: Conqueror's Temple (no duplicates)
Deck 1 of a set of 3 for the Club Race. Each phase needs its own deck with no Minion repeated between them, and these three share none. This one is for the Conqueror's Temple and is built around Shamaness.
