Survivor is a keyword shared among each of the five monocolored civilizations.
Details[]
It is an ability exclusive to creatures with the Survivor race.
They are a form of System Creature that enable all creatures with the Survivor Race to share an ability that can be stacked in order to make each Survivor stronger.

Fire  / Creature Survivor + Rock Beast 1000+ |
■ Survivor (Each of your Survivors has this creature's  ability.)
|
The ability indicated by the icon is shared with any of your other Survivors in the battle zone.
For example, if you have Blazosaur Q and Gigaling Q in the battle zone, it will get ": Power Attacker +1000". A Blazosaur Q will get ": Slayer".
However, not all creatures with the Survivor race have this ability, as well as having other abilities that aren't linked to the icon and won't be shared. This can include;
- Only the Come Into Play ability is shared by Orbis, Cloud Elemental Q. Your other Survivors don't get Blocker or Double Breaker.
- While Q-tronic Gargantua is in the battle zone, other survivors don't get Crew Breaker.
- Even if Split-Head Hydroturtle Q is Unblockable due to the ability of King Benthos, this isn't shared with other Survivors (unless they also Water creatures that were in play).
- If you add the Survivor race to creatures with the ability of Q-tronic Omnistrain or Surprise Illusion, they can receive the abilities of other creatures with this keyword, but can't share any abilities themselves.
There are Special Races that appeared with creatures such as White, Blastflame Crimson Lord that give abilities in a similar manner to creatures with the same race. Although the text is slightly different, in the above example it's treated the same as Rumblesaur Q giving Speed Attacker to each of your creatures.
The Survivor abilities themselves are treated as a Static Ability. However, the ability that is given isn't always a Static Ability. For example, Split-Head Hydroturtle Q and Skullsweeper Q have abilities that trigger whenever they attack.
Survivor evolution creatures, Promephius Q, Ultimate Man and Amarin, Electro Star Tree Q don't have this ability but can receive the abilities of other creatures.
Atakamaito Q, Blinding Speed has the Super Survivor variant, where it gives it's ability to each of your survivors in all zones.
Reminder Text[]
The latest reminder text for Survivor reads:
Survivor (Each of your Survivors has this creature's ability.)
|
On October 20, 2023, this ability was changed to include "other" in the text.
| Survivor (Each of your other Survivors has this creature's ability.)
|
However, the Survivor with the ability is treated as having the ability written after the icon while in all zones.
- Examples: Gallia Zohl, Iron Guardian Q and Azohl, Strange Stone Q always have blocker, even in your hand.
