→ It is recommended that you use opaque sleeves for mini sized cards as the first layer.

Card sleeves that are too large for the cards.

To prevent information on cards from becoming difficult to read, or to prevent cards from becoming distinguishable, please avoid using the combination of sleeves below. ※If you use 3 layers of sleeves, please ensure that the thickness of the deck does not cause difficulty in stacking as one pile or in shuffling. If you wish to use opaque sleeves made for regular sized cards, please use monochrome mini sized sleeves (sleeves that are not inner sleeves, and are standard mini sized sleeves) as the first layer.Ĭlear or monochrome (with aluminum film back) Opaque sleeves made for mini sized cards should be used for the first layer of sleeves (not including the inner sleeves for sized cards). In such cases, you may be instructed to remove or replace the sleeves used. ※Even if the following combinations are used, there may be instances where information on cards are not clearly visible, or can be distinguished from other cards, or becomes too thick to be stacked neatly, and other issues that may obstruct the fight from proceeding. The following combinations of sleeves are examples of what can be used for all levels of tournaments. If 2 or 3 layers of sleeves are used, please follow the usage guideline found further below. I would rate about a 7 out of 10.When using a single layer of sleeves, please use mini sized, opaque sleeves (illustrated or monochrome). I certainly do not mind Shadow Era, and I continue to fire it up now and then for a quick match, but it just has not worked its way into my 'regular rotation' when I am away from home but looking to kill a few minutes with a game. There is some really, really nice artwork to be had here.

There is an offline mode, though it does not have a lot of story or depth to it - just your typical duels with AI opponents playing themed decks.As a side note? I really like the background/play areas, and the cards themselves.

I did play some online matches, and they went pretty smoothly, though it sometimes took quite a while to find a suitable match that was ready and willing to play when I was. Like all of these games, there is a mixture of luck and strategy at play here. You have creatures, spells and equipment that you can summon - provided you have the resources to do so. The game itself is free, and it has a good system in place. I spent nine months playing games like Rage of Bahamut and Guardian Cross without spending a dime on either, and Shadow Era feels like it wants to very much sell me on packs of cards - but I do not do it. It seems like I would be the ideal market for that microtransaction strategy, but I am really not. I just do not do it with games like this. I am not a big fan of spending money on virtual packs. Usually, they fall short in at lease one area, such as the depth of gameplay, the card design and art, the online community - something. As my first serious CCG, Magic is almost always the yardstick I measure similar games up to. A lot of trading or collectible card game struggle to find the balance Magic: The Gathering has been sitting on for years now.
