Purchase the Luchadors Faction on Forgefire! (link coming soon)
They’re going to the top rope! The Luchadors bring the high-flying stunts of Mexican wrestling to the Smash Up squared-circle! These masked wrestlers defy gravity, and their opponents, using their signature techniques to get the pin, and of course, break the base! Beware their set-ups, because their follow-ups are usually brutal!
Luchadors are from the World Tour: International Incident set and do not have a Titan card.
Complexity Level: MEDIUM
Mechanics
- Playing Actions On Opponents' Minions
The Luchadors have several cards that require you to already have an action on another player's minion before you can play them or invoke their abilities. The Luchadors themselves provide those kinds of actions in the form of Set-Up actions, which can only be played on other players' minions but help you fulfill those requirements.
They also have a secondary focus on retrieving and recurring actions, particularly those Set-Up actions.

1x Cheap Pop
Give one of your minions +2 power until the end of the turn, or +4 power instead if a minion there has a Set-Up action on it.
Errata? Yes/No
Clarifications:
- A Set-Up action is an action with “Set-Up” as part of its name.
1x Out for the Count
Choose a minion with one or more of your actions on it. Return one of those actions to your hand. Destroy that minion.

2x Pin
Play on a minion with one of your actions on it. Ongoing: This minion’s abilities are cancelled, and its power isn’t added to its controller’s total power here.
Errata? Yes/No
Clarifications:
- A minion with Pin on it still has its power, and it still is added to the total power on the base for breaking it, and it counts for cards like Third Tier. Its power does not add to its controller’s total for determining VP rewards or for cards like Marking Territory. If a Pinned minion is your only minion on a base, its presence counts for earning VP rewards there if zero is one of the top three power totals there.
1x Powerful Set-up
Play on another player’s minion. Ongoing: Each of your minions here has +1 power.
Errata? Yes/No
Clarifications:
- If this ends up on a minion you control (through action transfer, or taking control of the minion) that minion still gets the +1 power.
