The card depicts someone standing in a hall of mirrors, surrounded by their own reflections.

The Illusion card summons an illusion of the player to fight alongside them, much like Mara's ability. The illusion is armed identically to the player. Higher card power increases the duration of the illusion.

History

This card was one of 23 cards to be kept in the deck simplification of 0.19.
Prior to 0.16, decks needed to be wielded to be evoked, so this card prompted the player to choose a weapon for the illusion to wield.
The Illusion card was added in 0.15.
