Earn your legend.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn Cyberpunk Trading Card Game, you'll put together the ultimate edgerunner crew with characters from across the franchise, pitting them against your opponent as you fight to become a Night City legend. Featuring stunning, custom artwork, Cyberpunk TCG is designed for trading card players, avid collectors, and fans of the Cyberpunk franchise alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis prerelease event is one of the first opportunities to experience Cyberpunk TCG Organized Play in-store.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach player will receive a Prerelease Event kit containing a promo card, six Cyberpunk TCG Retail Booster packs, a pack containing three random additional Legend cards, and a set of dice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the start of the event, the first thing you’ll do is construct a deck to play with, using the contents of your sealed packs — that’s where the name comes from! You can’t add any other cards you own to this deck until after the tournament is complete. Everything you play with comes from your sealed event kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I build a sealed deck?\u003c\/strong\u003e First things first, before you get into building your first sealed deck, it’s worth making sure you're familiar with the basic rules and goals of the game.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePre-releases are great opportunities to learn the game, and nobody expects you to turn up with full working knowledge of the rules on day one. But reading over our gameplay guide before you attend will be extremely useful in helping you understand what the cards you open can do, and the role they might be able to play in your deck.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSealed decks in Cyberpunk TCG must contain:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree Legend cards of your choice (these can be the three Legends from your additional Legend pack, Legend cards opened in your Booster Packs, or any combination of the two)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA main deck with a minimum of 30 cards, not including your three Legends\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike in the Constructed Cyberpunk TCG format, the three Legends you choose for your sealed deck do not determine which colors of cards you can include in your Main Deck. When playing the sealed deck format, you don’t need to worry about the RAM numbers on any of your cards at all. You can use cards of up to three different colors in your deck, regardless of which Legends you select to form your Crew!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFinal note, you’ll also find a Nova Rare promo card in your Pre-release kit. In answer to your next question, yes, you absolutely can include that card in your main deck!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSo, you can break the sealed deckbuilding process down into four key steps:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOpen up all of your packs and review the cards you have available\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSelect your three Legends\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChoose which three colors of cards you’d like to include in your deck\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePick at least 30 cards from your packs that you want to play with in your deck, ensuring that they’re only of your three chosen colors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat makes a winning sealed deck?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are countless ways to build a sealed deck. That’s a big part of what makes the format so fun, and such a great starting point for new players. But if you want to take down your local Beta or pre-release event, it’s worth following these tips:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTip 1: Prioritize stats over synergy\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith so few cards available to you, it can be tough to create synergistic strategies when playing sealed events. For example, if you’re trying to fill out your deck primarily with Arasaka Units, that’s probably not going to be possible — simply because it would be highly unlikely that you open enough of those cards in your six packs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstead, look at each card in isolation and assess its power on its own. Prioritize playing cards that boast strong stats, and don’t rely too heavily on specific other cards to perform well in your games.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTip 2: Make sure you play enough sellables\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo make sure you can play all of the strongest cards in your deck, you generally want to sell a card every turn. To do that consistently, you’ll need the right number of sellable cards in your deck. In general, a 50\/50 split between sellable and unsellable cards is a great place to start. The most successful players tend to settle somewhere close to a 55\/45 split, in favor of sellable cards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSo, in your sealed deck, that translates as 14 Units and 16 Sellable Program and Gear cards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTip 3: Let your pulls guide which colors you play\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn constructed formats, decks are typically built around Legends. You start with a strategy aligned with your chosen three Legends, and you build the deck out from there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn Sealed, however, all you need to do is choose which three colors you want to play. Spend some time reviewing your pulls, consider which color looks the weakest overall, and then play all of the others. After that, you can review all of your Legends to see which ones will be best at making your strongest Units, Gear, and Programs shine!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"A Muse N Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54669780255004,"sku":"CPTPRE2611011200","price":65.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0928\/1270\/6076\/files\/Pre-Release_POP_Assets_Pre-Release_1080_1080.png?v=1791399348","url":"https:\/\/amusengames.ca\/products\/cyberpunk-tcg-prerelease-sunday-nov-1-12pm","provider":"A Muse N Games","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
