I might be a bit slow, but I finally get how a creature gets extra +ST. Sure, we all know that leveling your land to level 3 and having the creatures symbol match the land then gives that creature +30 HP in battle. But did you also know that you get add'l ST too simply by having your creatures huddle together. I can now calculate precisely on whether or not I can win a battle before going into it. Or, if I have been invaded, whether or not it makes sense for me to use that Holy Grail cup. This game is too cool. Now if only they made a card that was 'Last Attack' instead of first attack. Then I could use a well place decoy to defeat another decoy.  |

They do have those.
It also took me about a week to figure it all out as well, the effect is called "support" and you can see its benefits on the character battle screen that displays all the stats.

Off the top of my head - the water tortoise (I forget its name), Efreet (fire) both have Last Attack ability embedded in the card. Also, the Diamond Shield gives Last Attack and +60HP/-30ST. Good against Decoys. I wondered how sometimes attack creatures get extra strength and sometimes they don't - good tip. Didn't realize the land chains affected that. THX Lately, I've been using First Attack creatures, clearing out opponents in an area, and adding Mass Strength spells. Sometimes I Mass Strength with the opponents still there, then use First Attacks to clear them out. I might be a bit slow, but I finally get how a creature gets extra +ST. Sure, we all know that leveling your land to level 3 and having the creatures symbol match the land then gives that creature +30 HP in battle. But did you also know that you get add'l ST too simply by having your creatures huddle together. I can now calculate precisely on whether or not I can win a battle before going into it.

...no Last Attack in Item format so that an attacking Decoy can fight a sitting decoy and win!  |

I've used an attack Decoy to kill a defending Decoy before - trying to recall how I did it. I can't recall an Item that gives Last Attack, either. Hmmm... ...no Last Attack in Item format so that an attacking Decoy can fight a sitting decoy and win! |

Item that gives last attack: Diamond Armor.
Creatures with last attack: Efreet, Sea Tortoise, Will O'The Wisp, Igneus Fatui, Cyclops and Mermecoleo.
And Im pretty positive there are no spells that give it.
My favorite way of dealing with Decoys will always be the Noble Archer.

By giving you First Attack and negating your opponents' First Attack, the item Hourglass essentially "gives Last Attack".
It's only useful in defense, though. If you are attacking a First Attack creature, than giving yourself First Attack (Sword of the Falcon, Sling, Winged Boots) will make you attack first anyway.
