Deck building — the 50-card main deck blueprint
A legal Palworld OCG deck is exactly 50 cards in the main deck plus a separate 10-card Soul deck. These are the official construction limits and the ratios strong lists run.

Deck limits
Main deck exactly 50 cards, Soul deck exactly 10 Soul cards, a maximum of 4 copies of any one card name, a maximum of 8 Lucky Pals, and no more than 2 colors (Colorless cards are always allowed).
Pals (24–28)
Spread the cost curve from 1 to 6 souls: a base of cheap early Pals, a strong 3–4 cost midgame, and two to four finishers.
Gear, Structures and Events (22–26)
Gear attaches to a Pal for extra power, Structures give a persistent effect, and Events are your interaction — most lists want 8–10 Events.
Consistency
Keep draw and search cards at 4 copies. Because the Soul deck is fixed at 10, your consistency budget goes entirely into the main deck.
