We hope that you are all ready to rumb…shuffle in 2020 with OPUS XI – Soldier’s Return!
This new expansion will feature great Final Fantasy VII characters, splendid artwork as well as a brand new mechanic using card counters. While the release is still a couple months away, we wanted to start the hype train ahead of our spoiler season and share with you the contents of our pre-release kit!


Pre-release tournaments are super fun, casual events that will take place all across the globe the weekend of March 21-22nd, and the whole week following. Keep an eye on this space for the participating store list and don’t forget to spread the word!



Last but not least, here is a little refresher about the Pre-release format and special rules that apply!
Limited Sealed

Decks must contain at least 40 cards (40 to 41 cards recommended).
Victory is attained by inflicting 6 points of damage instead of the usual 7.
Players can have more than three copies of the same card in their deck.
Flow of the game:

Each player should open their 9 boosters to create their “card pool”.*
They should then build a deck using only the cards in their “card pool”.
Players should then participate in the tournament using the decks they have built.
*Due to the nature of the format, it is not permitted to use the pre-release promotional card included in the kit as part of the deck.
