Deck Building

First, players must know what cards are found in their deck and this is a basic reminder for players when trying to form a deck. For Vanguard, we would advise you to have 17 level 0. The reason is that you can put up to 16 triggers in your deck and also within the 16 triggers, only a maximum of 4 can be of the heal trigger. The last 1 would be your starting vanguard card that should not be a trigger.

For level 1 to 3, players are advised to have around 13 cards for level 1, 12 cards for level 2 and 8 cards for level 3 as this is to be sure that you will be able to draw them at the start of the game or you might find it quite hard trying to ride to a higher grade during the game play.
