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.

Deck rules

The deck must contain only legal cards.
The deck must contain exactly 50 cards.
If you choose to use a Mastermind card, each card in your deck with a camp alignment must match at least one of the Mastermind cards camp alignments.
Mastermind cards are not placed in the deck do not count towards the 50 card total.

Of your Character cards, about 20 of the cards should be Leader cards as they are vital for engaging Mission cards.
Around 10 cards should be Mission and Facilities cards.
The remainder of your deck should be given over to other character cards.
