Updated for the current Palworld patch
Key takeaways
- ✓Building a deck of only strong cards
- ✓Missing an energy placement
- ✓Four colors in one list
- ✓Ignoring the builder's distribution graph
Building a deck of only strong cards
Strength per card without a curve loses to any deck that acts first.
Missing an energy placement
One skipped placement pushes every remaining play back a turn.
Four colors in one list
Color requirements make the printed cost effectively higher; two colors is the safe default.
Ignoring the builder's distribution graph
Curve holes are invisible in a card list and obvious in the distribution view.
