The 1.00x ATK penaltyBlow (kanji 打撃) weapon type is also referred to as Knock in in in-game files, and has previously been translated as Strike among fans. Blow cards attack enemies occupying the one square directly ahead of them. The damage output is the product of the card's ATK and the Blow penalty multiplier (1.0). Blow cards gain ≥12 CP for every instance they hit a card with >0 HP, and ≥17 CP for every instance they hit a card at 0 HP. They also gain ≥5 CP when struck. Blow souls and licences are obtainable in Daily Quests on Wednesdays JST and in certain free quests.

Yellow indicates the square the ally blow card occupies, and red indicates the square the ally card will attack if an enemy occupies them. If no enemy is present in this red square during an attack, the game counts this as a miss. Attacking an enemy at 0HP does not activate skill effects that trigger by attacking (with some exceptions, such as Guts+1HP when HP is at 0 at the end of the turn for 5 turns. Removed once activated. (Buff) removal with Remove BuffRemove one buff (Debuff)).
