Trading Card Game
The Luck & Logic trading card game was officially released in Japan on January 28, 2016. It is set for an English release in the summer of 2016.
Gameplay
Luck & Logic is played between two players with pre-constructed decks. Players take turns playing cards, using abilities, and initiating battles. The game ends when one of two win conditions are met.
Win Conditions
There are two win conditions in Luck & Logic. A player wins by destroying all six of his opponent’s gates or when his opponent refreshes twice. Refreshing is the act of shuffling one’s drop zone back into the deck.
Deck Construction
These decks comprise of 60 cards in total, 50 cards in the main deck and 10 cards in the gate deck. The main deck contains member, tactics, and paradox cards, and the gate deck must consist of exactly 10 gate cards. You may have up to four cards of the same name in the main deck, and up to two cards of the same Gate number in the gate deck.
Card Types
Member
There are three types of members in Luck & Logic: Logicalists, Foreigners, and Tranceunions.
Logicalists and Foreigners are members that can combine through Trance to form Tranceunions. These members can be played from hand or "sortied" by paying its cost using "stock," as long as its level is equal to or less than the number of cards in the player’s level zone. Tranceunions may have a Logic Drive ability that can be played in the main phase, as long as the Tranceunion has "soul" under it. Tranceunions obtain "soul" when they are played through the Trance method. If they are played from the hand without using Trance, they do not have "soul" and cannot use their Logic Drive.
Tactics
Tactics cards are "event" cards that can be played during a battle, and they give the player’s member an advantage in the battle.
Paradox
Paradoxes are horizontal cards that, like Tactics cards, can be played during a battle. These paradoxes change the rules of the battle and may swing the outcome of the battle.
Gate
These are the cards that make up the gate deck. The gate cards are placed face-down on every circle. When a gate is destroyed, it is flipped face-up. Destroying all of the opponent’s gates is a win condition.
