About these numbers: Values are Master Rulebook v17 system numbers plus Archon Arcana card gains. Card bonus icon counts vary by print and stay out except examples. KeyForge DB was down Sept 2026, so no invented counts.

About this converter

KeyForge counts aember from 1 to 18 here. Icon, Headhunter, First Scroll, small token and Blunderbore low open at 1, Blunderbore high at 2, keys to win and mid token at 3, high token at 5, key cost at 6, deck size at 36 is cards not aember but scale row, and three keys math at 18. That makes one key equal six icons and one match equal eighteen icons. Bonus icons grant 1 each from supply, Headhunter gains 1 after fight, First Scroll captures 1 each. Card print icon counts vary and stay out except these examples. Every value here is the rulebook or Arcana gain.

How to use it

Pick two entries and a unit in the top row. The three boxes below stay linked: one holds a count of the first, one the matching count of the second, one the total in aember. Change any box and the other two update. Try 1 key cost against icons.

Deck 36 is cards, not aember, flagged as scale row for math. Damage tokens 1 3 5 track damage, not aember, flagged as scale rows. KeyForge DB down Sept 2026 means print bonus counts stay out rather than guessed.
