3\) Name of the Card — The middle of the card displays the Name\
4\) Attack Strength — Bottom Left. This tells you the base attack stat for the card (only creature cards have an attack stat)\
5\) Health — Bottom Right. This tells you the base health stat for the card (only creature cards have a Health stat)\
6\) Ability Text — Centre. This explains what effects the card may have, either when played, or when attacking.
