Rascals

What it looks like

The Rascals is a Common card that is unlocked from the Rascal's Hideout (Arena 13). It spawns a single-target, ground-targeting, melee, ground troop with high hitpoints and moderate damage output in front of two single-target, air-targeting, medium-ranged, ground troops with low hitpoints and moderate damage. The Rascals features a boy who has black eyes and eyebrows, dons a bowl cut which covers his eyes, wears a team-colored tunic, a black hood and pants, wields a wooden sword, carries a medium-sized pouch on his waist attached with a rope, and is barefoot, with the girls appearing similarly to Archers and being dressed similarly to the boy, except they have brown eyes and aquamarine hair, wear eyepatches, gloves and shoes, and wield slingshots with an attached team-colored rubber band. A Rascals card costs 5 Elixir to deploy.
