In practice
Leafy Trap does not attack. Every 5 s it sends the 1 (3 at 4★) Rush Units with the most HP over to the opponent, at only 15%/30%/60% of their max HP, and goes to Nap. At high card levels the transferred HP rises to 80%/160%/320%, which shifts the fight. One copy is enough. I mark it as a good answer to summon decks, and the simulation shows it pairing well with Violet Magus and Berrinetta. Tier B. It unlocks at 2200 trophies.

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

What the community says
BUsable, has a deck
Sends the opponent's strongest Rush unit back to their side. Dangerous against single-carry decks, but depends on its 5 s timing and needs more testing.
