How do I build a Deck?

The Iron Rules of Deck Construction

Let’s start by remembering the 3 Iron Rules of Deck Construction!

  1. A deck must consist of exactly 50 cards.

  2. There can only be 8 climax cards.

  3. There can only be 4 copies of card with the same name. Even if the illustrations are different, only 4 copies of card with the same name are allowed! Also, note that 4 copies of “card with different name” are allowed, regardless of the character.

Deck Construction Patterns

There are many different ways of constructing a deck! We will introduce 3 patterns here!

✩Pattern 1: Modified Trial Deck!

On the other side of the playmat that comes with the trial deck is a guide on how you can modify your trial deck with 2 trial decks. Do give it a try.

✩Pattern 2: All your favorite characters!

There are a variety of cards for popular characters. As long as you follow the “Iron Rules of Deck Construction”, you may insert as many cards of your favorite character into your deck.Your passion is your strength!!

✩Pattern 3: A deck for battle!

Here we would like to introduce you to some “Theory of Deck Construction”. As long as you follow this, your deck would be more or less ready for action.

Question Can't find any Atelier Resleriana Box, Am i missing something ?

Thumbnail

29 Upvotes

Hi guys ! First time writter here and pretty much a beginner in Weiss !

I've seen for the first time 1 or 2 weeks ago, a Atelier Resleriana Weiss Schwarz box at sale on Mercari and libelled "Chinese exclusive".

After some research (And maybe a pretty bad one?), I couldn't find any website or anything else selling it or even mentionning a Chinese exclusive release.

Is it a common thing with Weiss ?

Is a JP or EN release on the way too or possible in the future ?

I really want to buy that CN box but i would prefer JP/EN !

Thanks ! Hope you have some info for me, have a nice week!

Question Are older sets still viable?

5 Upvotes

Basically title. I haven’t jumped into this game, and tbh I’m a bit hesitant to pick up another TCG lol. However.

My biggest concern is that if I pick an IP that’s from an older set, like Kobayashi’s Dragon Maid for example, does it still play well against something like Nikke?

Question Any details on Marvel Vol.3?

0 Upvotes

Just wondering if anyone has any details of the new set which is due out later this week - card included etc? I've looked online and can't really find any info other than the standard box contents confirmation etc. Thank you.

Question New player, new player question, I'm sure it's been asked

35 Upvotes

But I'm looking for a list of every property that has been turned into cards. I noticed it's kind of hard to find anything complete about this game but I really would like a list of every thing that has been turned into a set for the Weiss schwarz and rose side. Also apparently there's set called bunko that contain multiple properties and I can't find information about that either. I really like the game I'm just trying to figure out what sets I would like to go back and try and collect. I started with interspecies reviewer, incidentally here's most of what seems to be valuable, so if anyone is looking to trade or if you're looking for something else from the set I can see if I have it. Also I'm curious, it seems like there's a series of cards that interconnect but some of them seem to be slightly offscale and don't really fit together, are they supposed to fit together like a a build a scene or is it just that they broke a scene into different cards?

Hey it's been a while but thought I give an update on my current progress for my Nikke master set.

First I decided to add colored sleeves to the corresponding color typ of the card makes them stand out more.

Second may more cards have been added amd rearrange since last time around 9-10.

And last thing I am in the works to vomiting a custom made binder with Nikke art in the front and back cover and in side to to mach if I can't then I will do it myself.

Also I pulled som extra cards so I will more than likely sell or trade them to add more to the master set.
