# Skills

> Optional cards that add a twist to Standard matches.

Skills are cards you can bring into a match for an extra move. They're optional: Casual matches have no skills at all, so pure strategy decides.

## How skills work

* Skills are on in **Standard** rooms, and in **VS Bot** and **Quick Match** with **Skills On**.
* Bring up to **2 skills**. Each one usually has **1 charge** per match.
* Play a skill on your turn, before you call. A skill never ends your turn, and you can play both in the same turn.
* Every card has its own number. That number belongs to you until you play the card, so rivals can't call it. Nullify's number is the exception: it stays open.

## The five skills

Tap a card to open its page in the app, where a short animation shows the skill in a match.

<CardGroup cols={3}>
  <Card title="Wild Daub (7)" img="https://mintcdn.com/the-bingo-fi-a4951ed8/cEgy-N_Ac-sRWqAb/images/skills/wild-daub.webp?fit=max&auto=format&n=cEgy-N_Ac-sRWqAb&q=85&s=819d7634a4a43bf6b8dad5fbc7197c2b" href="https://app.thebingofi.xyz/market/1" width="480" height="480" data-path="images/skills/wild-daub.webp">
    The number on the card is marked on your board right away.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Double Call (22)" img="https://mintcdn.com/the-bingo-fi-a4951ed8/cEgy-N_Ac-sRWqAb/images/skills/double-call.webp?fit=max&auto=format&n=cEgy-N_Ac-sRWqAb&q=85&s=8321e23c8661ce1d66fa05c9ca210bd1" href="https://app.thebingofi.xyz/market/2" width="480" height="480" data-path="images/skills/double-call.webp">
    Calls the card's number for everyone, then you still make your normal call.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Ghost Call (13)" img="https://mintcdn.com/the-bingo-fi-a4951ed8/cEgy-N_Ac-sRWqAb/images/skills/ghost-call.webp?fit=max&auto=format&n=cEgy-N_Ac-sRWqAb&q=85&s=079e637c14994ae165bdc3b0cebce0d6" href="https://app.thebingofi.xyz/market/3" width="480" height="480" data-path="images/skills/ghost-call.webp">
    The card's number marks only your board, and nobody can call it after that.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Cell Swap (12)" img="https://mintcdn.com/the-bingo-fi-a4951ed8/cEgy-N_Ac-sRWqAb/images/skills/cell-swap.webp?fit=max&auto=format&n=cEgy-N_Ac-sRWqAb&q=85&s=77fb9909ef6b70b6b9ce70745bf3f00b" href="https://app.thebingofi.xyz/market/4" width="480" height="480" data-path="images/skills/cell-swap.webp">
    Moves the card's number to any cell you pick on your board.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Nullify (25)" img="https://mintcdn.com/the-bingo-fi-a4951ed8/cEgy-N_Ac-sRWqAb/images/skills/nullify.webp?fit=max&auto=format&n=cEgy-N_Ac-sRWqAb&q=85&s=a01d1d02e2f126c6fe1193d8b94ff423" href="https://app.thebingofi.xyz/market/5" width="480" height="480" data-path="images/skills/nullify.webp">
    Cancels a rival's skill and marks the card's number on your board.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

## Not pay-to-win

* Every copy of a skill does exactly the same thing. Rarity changes the look and how many exist, never the power.
* Nullify can cancel a rival's skill, so no skill is a sure thing.
* In Casual, nobody has skills, so everyone plays on equal terms.

## How to get skills

Skills are NFTs on the GIWA testnet. You buy them in the [Market](https://app.thebingofi.xyz/market) with free test ETH, then link your wallet and add them to your loadout before a Standard match. [Web3 on TheBingoFi](/web3) walks you through it.
