Creature
An asset that attacks from the Battle Line during Resolve.
Chant
An asset that can only exist in Reserve, and dies if Deployed.
Invocation
A spell that affects the Battle Line, but doesn't go on it.
Reserve
A chain of cards placed above a Host on the Battle Line. Whenever that Host is removed from play, the Reserve stack “drops” so that the lowest card is Deployed, and the remaining stack becomes its Reserve.
Slot
A location on the Battle Line or in Reserve where an asset could be placed. Normally, a single Reserve Slots is allowed above each creature, and three slots are allowed on Battle Line Slots for each side.
Resolve Phase Order
During the Resolve Phase, On Resolve actions trigger before attacks. Within each category, cards furthest from the Maven (or Demon , on its turn) fire first, and top cards in a stack resolve before things below them.
Deploy
The act of arriving onto the Battle Line, either by being played there directly or by falling onto it to replace a discarded Host.
Replace
When placing an asset, you can choose to replace an existing asset instead of using an open Slot. When doing this, the previous creature is lost.
Killed
When a Creature and Chant accumulates Wounds equal or greater than its Health , that card is killed. Killed cards are discarded.
