Deck

The deck (デッキ, dekki) is the set of cards that a player can draw from while playing the Genso Suikoden Card Stories TCG.

Overview
Each player uses their own deck in a game. A deck is made from character, mission and facilities cards.

When a game begins, the deck is placed face-down in the deck space on the game field. All cards in the deck must remain face-down during the game, unless a card effect says otherwise. During a game, neither player may view the contents of either player's deck unless a card effect allows them to. Even if a card in the deck is face-up, it cannot be looked at by either player unless it is on top of the deck.
