(Update) New Leader Card

In addition to the new additional cards, Departed Soultaker has been added as a new leader card.

Notes about leader cards:
- The leader card of Departed Soultaker will be treated the same as the regular card version from Roar of the Godwyrm.

- You can only receive the leader, emblem, flair, and card sleeves once.
- Leader cards cannot be created.
- Leader cards cannot be traded for with temporary gems.
- The normal version of a leader card can be animated using a seer's globe.
