Class

Class (種別, Shubetsu), sometimes Character Class (	キャラクター種別, Kyarakutā Shubetsu), is a term used in Genso Suikoden Card Stories. Nearly all character cards in the games are assigned a class, which affects how, when and in what manner cards can be played. Class is the fundamental category of character cards in the game.
