Single-domain units use matching Power; domainless units use any-domain Power.View in Glossary while playing the unit. It is an optional Additional CostA payment added to a card or ability's base cost. Mandatory additional costs must be paid; optional ones become part of the payment when you choose them. A chosen optional additional cost reduced to 0 still counts as paid.View in Glossary and cannot be paid after the unit is on the board. If you pay it, the unit enters ReadyReady means a card or rune is available to be used for something that requires it to Exhaust. Ready objects are kept upright.View in Glossary directly. It does not enter exhausted and then become ready, so effects that watch for it becoming ready do not trigger. Multiple instances of Accelerate do not add another benefit.
