They have higher than average health and average deck limits with a focus on spells. They have separate mana bonuses, which are not mirrors of each other as with [[Rowan Kenrith|Rowan Kenrith / Will Kenrith]], nor do they follow the [[color]] logic of their respective colors, e.g. Red usually prefers Green, but Rowan has the +1 to Will's +2 Green, and Blue usually prefers Black, but Rowan has +2. They both have a +4 to their own color, and a +3 to White, making, for example, {{Card URL|Battlefield Forge}} almost as useful as {{Card URL|Shivan Reef}}.
The Scholars each have their own set of abilities between which the player may flip by using a Loyalty ability. Will alters the opponent's creature's power and toughness, draws, and creates Treasure {{Ability|Token|Tokens}} and 4/4 Art Elementals, while Rowan has buff, direct damage, and Spell {{Ability|Copy|Copying}} abilities. Both can draw cards and gain mana. Both of their ability sets have strong synergy with [[Gems#Activated gems|Enhanced gems]], with many powers scaling according to the number of Enhanced gems on the board. Will's third, Breaking the Ice, is a potential one-shot game ender once enough {{Ability|Enhance}} cards are played. Naturally, casting spells is a thing for the twins: the Art Elemental is triggered by {{Ability|Prowess}} and their [[#Twins of Magic|Twins of Magic support]], by {{Ability|Wizardry}}.
Although they are categorized as having a Weaken ability, Chill Down cannot kill creatures, only reduce their power and toughness.
