The Vespitole are one of the four factions in War of Omens, and the only faction so far with a single player campaign. The unique aspect of all Vespitole cards is that they draw another card, allowing for the potential of infinite combos later in a match as a result of cycling.
While the ten coins you start with in your deck inhibit the infinite combo, it is possible with patience and strategy to get an infinite combo running. As It requires a minimum of 2 turns without using a coin you have to prepare when you wish to go infinite by ensuring you have a good economy.
Heroes[]
Vespitole has 4 heroes available in the game, as well as two more that were available to Kickstarter backers. Captain Listrata is one of the starting heroes in the game, the others can be gotten from booster packs.
