1-UP

1-UP is a Film Basic Spell from partOne. One of the few cards that allow a player to get more kings, 1-UP is one of the stronger cards in the game.

Origin
The card is a reference to Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, in which Scott Pilgrim receives a 1-UP. The effect is essentially the same as it is in other games: gain a life.

Development
Initially called Paul Bunyan, this card allowed a player to place a king anywhere on the opponent's half of the board, but it could not capture on the next movement phase. Because this was usually not very good, and was essentially a worse Hello There, the description was changed.

Strategies/Synergies
This card is pretty much always a good card to play.

Cards that benefit from 1-UP:
 * I Concede (more kings allows for a victory)
