Ship Assists are powerful abilities that can greatly affect you and your enemies. They can be called down from your ship and will take effect immediately. 

With each start of the match, you will be asked to select a pair of Assists that you want to use. The pairs are randomized. 

Depending on the cost of the specific assist, it will be able to recharge after a few turns. You will be able to use it only once every time it recharges, so the timing of its usage is also important. 

Here are the different types of assists that you may encounter during your matches:
