Objective and Deck Rules
Matches in Weiss Schwarz Online follow the same objective as the physical trading card game, which is to deal 7 damage to the opposing opponent to raise their level until they reach Level 4. Each player has a Level attributed to them, with both beginning at 0.
The game has three kinds of cards: character, event, and climax. Character cards have a certain ‘Power’ assigned to them. The higher the Power is, the better the advantage when battling the opponent’s characters. These kinds of cards also possess an ‘Ability’, special effects that can be triggered during the match.
Event cards have an Ability, as well, mostly to give players an advantage during the match. Climax cards, on the other hand, have Abilities that can change the balance of the battle.
To participate in a match, players must prepare their own 50-card deck. No more than four cards with the same name can be placed in a deck. Only eight Climax cards can be put in a deck.
Basic Match Loop
After shuffling their decks, deciding who will go first, and drawing five cards, they’ll begin taking turns to play their cards. There are seven phases in a match in Weiss Schwarz:
⚫︎ Stand Phase
⚫︎ Draw Phase
⚫︎ Clock Phase
⚫︎ Main Phase
⚫︎ Climax Phase
⚫︎ Attack Phase
⚫︎ End Phase
After completing all seven phases, the player will end their turn, and their opponent will then play their turn.
Weiss Schwarz Online Story Plot
Weiss Schwarz Online features a story mode delivered in a visual novel style. As of writing, little is known about the story, but it will feature Amamiya Hinata, who has only been introduced to the card game Weiss Schwarz by another character named Tenkoru.
