Applibot isn't known for always making things clear - I would guess this is just another incident of that. I have not seen anything to support an actual boost or drop other than the skills. @Congo - I don't understand why you say that. It would be advantageous for me to set up a water support line against fire, since I'm a single element forest player. Setting up other support lines would give me an even better defence. It doesn't use backline, so whether you have cards in backline to be boosted or not, makes no difference.
