Palworld Soul Card Upgrades
Soul cards are the ESOUL-coded printings that sit alongside your Pals rather than replacing them, so an upgrade means swapping one Soul slot for a stronger printing rather than rebuilding the deck. Work out which slot your deck loses games on, check that card's exact printed code on its page at /cards, then price the base printing and its gold or parallel version separately on /prices — the gold version plays identically, so paying the premium is a collecting decision, not a power decision. Everything here pairs with the Palworld TCG tools at /tcg-tools.
