The game contains up to 5 ratings for each card, from a 1 star rating to a 5 star rating.  A cards rarity can be told by counting the stars on its portrait.

Cards with a rarity of 3-5 are special character cards.  Nearly all specific characters have two different card ratings.  For example, Moritaka has a 3 star card, and a 4 star rating.  In some cases, a characters qualities, such as their weapon type, will change.

If you obtain a duplicate card of the same character AND rarity, that dupe will be automatically added to your current card, increasing it's Charge Skill level by 1 if it's a Rarity 1-3 card, +5 if it's a Rarity 4 card, or +20 if it's a Rarity 5 card.

There is no way to upgrade a card's rarity. So if you want Moritaka's 4 star card you can't upgrade his 3 star card, and will instead have to pull his 4 star card normally.
==About a Card Deck==
==About a Card Deck==


A deck is made up of 5 of your own cards, and when you enter battle, 1 friend, for a total of 6.  4 cards can fight at one time, with two of your cards being sub-cards.  When one of your characters is defeated, it will be swapped out for a sub-card in its place.
A deck is made of up of 5 of your own cards and, when you enter battle, 1 Support (a card from another player), for a total of 6 cards.  4 cards can fight at one time, with two of your cards being sub-cards.  When one of your characters is defeated, it will be swapped out for a sub-card in its place.
Each card has its own cost. As your player ranks up, your maximum available Cost will increase, allowing you to use more powerful cards.
===Cost===
[[File:Costs.jpg|600px|thumb|right|Team selection screen, showing individual card costs and Total Cost]]
Cost is a number that limits the amount of high rarity cards you can use in a team. Each card has a cost and the total cost of the cards in your team cannot exceed the maximum cost, which is 36 when you start the game. Most of the time the card costs are:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! style="width: 75px;" |Rarity !! Cost
|-
| 1 Star || 2
|-
| 2 Star || 4
|-
| 3 Star || 8
|-
| 4 Star || 16
|-
| 5 Star || 24
|}
There are exceptions, like Benten's 3 Star and 4 Star cards costing 10 and 18 instead of the usual 8 and 16. The Protagonist's card cost is 0.
 
This means that you can't make a team of five 5 Star cards and that using 1 Star or 2 Star cards is a good idea sometimes. As your [https://wiki.housamo.xyz/Rank_Table Player Rank] goes up, your maximum available cost will increase, allowing you to use more powerful cards.
 
Lastly, Supports (cards from friends) are treated as having 0 cost, regardless of rarity.
