Setting Up a Game:At the beginning of the game each player is dealt 10 cards face down. These cards form each players Life Deck. Players can never look at the cards in their Life Deck unless the game or a card effect allows them to.
Playing the Game:The game is played in a series of rounds. During each round, players take turns in trying to summon cards. A round ends when only one player remains, making that player the winner of that round. A new round then begins.
At the end of the round, each eliminated player will take damage, which is represented by discarding cards from their Life Deck. If you are eliminated and have no cards in your Life Deck, then you are defeated and are out of the game. The last player remaining in the game wins!
The Turn:The player who was randomly chosen to go first takes the first turn of the opening round. On your turn, you must try to summon a card. Initially, youll try to summon a card from the Draw Deck, but as the game progresses you might be able to summon cards from your reserves as you accumulate them. To summon a card from the top of the Draw Deck, reveal that card. If its strength is greater than the strength of the last card you summoned, then youve successfully summoned that card. Place it to the right of the last card you summoned. This is known as Escalating.
If you summoned the card successfully, you may use any Summon ability that it may have; though using it is entirely optional. If the cards strength is not greater than the last card you summoned, then discard the card you drew from the Draw Deck, and you are eliminated from the round. Discard any other cards you summoned this round.
After a player summons a card, or fails to summon a card, play passes to the player with the lowest total strength among their summoned cards.
