Character Card

Character cards are primary means of combat. Each character card posses a power value which is used to determine the outcome of battles between two characters, as well as a soul rating that is used to calculate the total damage dealt to the opponent. Each character card posses characteristic based on the series they come from and some of the cards have special abilities or effects. Some effect may require the player to fulfill its requirement in order to activate. Each player is able to choose any number of character cards from their hand as long as they are able to pay the cost, however they are limited only to a maximum of 5 characters on the field. Only a maximum of 3 characters can attack the opponent while the rest remain as supporting roles. The supporting character cards are invulnerable to default frontal or side attack from the opponent, however they will be sent directly to the waiting room if their power value reaches 0. The frontal character cards will be able to perform either a direct attack or side attack once per turn, after which would be set to 【Rest】 position. These frontal characters are set reverse position when defeated in battle; an optional cost of 3 stocks is required to revive each character during the Encore phase.
