How many Soul cards can I use in a game?

Each Soul card resolves once and then leaves play, so plan the single turn you want it on.

Do Soul cards count toward my 50-card deck?

No. Soul cards sit in their own area and do not use main-deck slots.

What does the ESOUL prefix mean?

It identifies the English Soul card set — for example ESOUL-002 — the same way EBP01 identifies Dawn of Palpagos.

Can a counter stop a Soul card?

A counter cannot un-play the Soul, but it can answer the attack or board state the Soul set up, so sequence carefully.
