Highlander (ハイランダー Hairandā) is an unofficial term which refers to an ability currently exclusive to the Bermuda Triangle clan that defines a deck contruction, where there can only be one specific type of cards with the same name, and thus no multiple copies at all. This definition is also officially referred to as "Construction of one same card name" (同名カード1枚構築 Dōmei Kādo Ichi-mai Kōchiku).

List of Highlander-defining Cards[]
These cards support the "there can only be one" playstyle by revealing cards from the top of your deck, and if all of the revealed normal units or cards have different card names, perform beneficial effects making up for only having one card with that specific card name in your deck.
Card Name | Event | Number of Cards Revealed | Type of Unit with Different Card Names | Effect |
Captivating Originality, Gerlinde | When placed on (VC) | 7 | Normal | Call up to two of the revealed cards to (RC), and shuffle your deck |
Cheerfully Etoile, Olyvia | When your unit named "School Etoile, Olyvia" Strides on this unit during your turn | 7 | Both | Choose two cards from among the revealed cards, call them to separate (RC), choose a card from your hand, and put it into your soul |
Diva of Atlantea, Iryna | When placed on (VC) | 10 | Normal | At the end of the first battle of this turn, [Stand] it |
Heart Monopoly, Anezka | When placed on (VC) | 10 | Normal | Acquire one Imaginary Gift: Force, Accel, and Protect in any order |
Popple Empathy, Bettie | When placed on (VC) or (RC) | 7 | Normal | Put up to one card from your hand on the bottom of your deck. If you put a card, put up to one of the revealed cards into your hand |
Unparalleled Ingenuity, Loura | When placed on (VC) | 10 | Normal | Call any number of the revealed cards to (RC), and they get [Power]+10000 until end of turn |
Valuable Verve, Federica | When placed on (VC) | 10 | Both | Call up to five face down <Mermaid> cards with [Power] and different card names from your G zone to (RC), and until end of turn, they get [Power]+15000, and can attack from the back row. |
Velvet Voice, Raindear | At the end of the battle it attacked | 10 | Normal | Ride up to one of the revealed cards not named "Velvet Voice, Raindear" as [Stand], shuffle your deck, and that unit gets drive -1 until end of turn. At the end of this turn, put that unit on the bottom of your deck, and ride a grade 3 card from your soul as [Rest]. |
Although these cards do not share the revealing cards from the top of your deck abilities, they still support the Highlander playstyle through wanting cards with different card names to gain benefits from.
Card Name | Event | Effect |
Class Session, Ostina | When it attacks a vanguard | It gets [Power]+5000 if all of the units on your (VC) and (RC) have different card names |
Miracle Cycle, Atrokia | At the end of the battle it attacked | Choose three normal units from your (RC) and drop each. If the six chosen cards have different card names, [Stand] it, and put the chosen cards on the bottom of your deck in any order. |
School Etoile, Olyvia | When it attacks a vanguard | Choose up to five of your rear-guards. If all of the chosen units have different card names, return all of those units to your hand. If three or more units were returned, choose up to two cards from your hand, call them to separate (RC) in different rows, and this unit gets [Critical]+1 until end of that battle. |
School Etoile, Olyvia (V Series) | When it attacks a vanguard | Choose up to five of your rear-guards. If all of the chosen rear-guards have different card names, [Stand] all of them. If you [Stand] three or more rear-guards, this unit gets [Critical]+1 until end of that battle. |
Silver Singer, Cutire | When placed on (VC) or (RC) | You may declare a card name other than this card's. If you do, reveal cards from the top of your deck until you reveal the declared card or a normal unit with the same card name as a card revealed by this effect, put the declared normal unit from among them into your hand, and shuffle your deck. |
Trivia[]
- The name Highlander is taken from the movie of the same name, whose tagline was of course "There can be only one".
- Due to how cards such as Loura have been advertised, Highlander is also rarely known as a "Legendary Idol deck".
