Release

Template:Infobox Keyword Release is a keyword shared among each of the 5 monocolored civilizations.

Details

It is a Substitution Effect that is only featured on the Awakened side of psychic creatures.

Whenever a Psychic Creature with Release would leave the battle zone, you may flip it to the smaller costing side instead. This enables the Psychic Creature to not be removed and Awaken again in the future.

Note that as continuous statuses affect psychic creatures even after the psychic creature has flipped, it does not save a creature from Decrease Power. Creatures with release may also be removed two times when something targets two creatures (such as Olzekia, General of Decapitation) as they treat the Awakened Psychic Creature and the original Psychic Creature to be two creatures. Finally, since it is a Destruction Substitution effect, it does not prevent cards such as Rumble Lecter, Terror Awakened from removing a creature.
