Arcane 101 Schools

There are eight schools, and Lucky's Pals names them: Flame, Frost, Storm, Wind, Light, Nature, Shadow, and Steel. The live game page confirms the count of eight and does not repeat the names. You learn spells from your trainer and build a deck. That is the whole school system in the public text.

How a school is chosen

You pick one at the start. The group description says you learn spells from your trainer, so the school is a spell list delivered by a person in the game, not a passive you stack later. No trainer names, locations, or spell counts per school are published. The game page's "150 or more spells" is a total, not a per-school budget. Do not divide 150 by 8 and call it a build.

The Choose Your Spell key art shows Sunder, Earthshatter, and Frost Shard in a single hand. That does not prove one school owns all three, and it does not prove a deck can mix schools. It proves those card names exist. Frost Shard has an ice picture, which is a reason to look at the Frost trainer if you liked the art, not a rule.

What a school is not

A school is not a race. Races are a separate roll, paid for with Race Rerolls, and the current page does not print race names. A school is not a PvP rank. Duelist is a badge for winning a duel, with 456 awards, and it does not mention a school. A school is not locked to a land. The exotic kits, Puppet Master and Astral Sovereign, both say they suit any school and grow with your level. If a paid kit fits every school, the schools are not hard-gated out of gear.

No public tier list ranks the eight. Making one up would be a guess. Pick the element whose cards you want to see for the next hour, then hold that choice through the Forest. Switching is a new character problem. A third character slot exists as a pass and it is not on sale, so the character you have is the one you should finish the Forest on.

After you pick

Take every spell the trainer offers that you can put in the deck. Raise the one you cast most toward Tier V. Clear the Forest. Then look at Frostfang Pass and decide whether the deck feels thin. If it feels thin, you need more of that trainer's cards, not a different school name.
