# Special Attack & Defense

Special Attack and Special Defense behave slightly differently when determining these Fighting Trait values for the Summoned Champion.&#x20;

These are calculated using an equation that takes into account the Special (Attack or Defense) probability of the Bloodtaker and Bloodgiver. The higher the Special (Attack or Defense) of the parent Champions, the higher the Summoned Champion’s Special (Attack or Defense) is likely to be.&#x20;

This calculation is done in such a way to ensure that no Summoned Champion will ever have as high a Special (Attack or Defense) likelihood as the Purebloods.
