The Ultimate HOW TO PLAY - Grand Archive TCG

[@itzsev4910]

This might be the single best “Learn to Play” video I have ever seen. It’s not a complicated game but you kept everything simple and straightforward! The visuals helped you use real examples at the end! Bravo! Thank you! I feel a lot more confident to pick this game up and dive deeper!!!

Thanks Rogue, your support is always appreciated!

[@kcraft1994]

I normally don't comment, but I just wanted to say that this is by far the best how-to-play video I've seen for a TCG. You mentioned that the video took a long time to put together and it shows! Great work!

I cant thank you enough for this. As many have already stated, the info in this video is well thought out and organized to a tee. Ive had some speed bumps getting to learn Grand Archive and this is the best guide Ive encountered... easily better than the quick start guide.

This guide is superb! Thank you! My wife and I are trying to learn how to play GA. We bought some starter decks and are hoping to get into this game as the mechanics are really interesting.

[@MaindeckGames]

Thank you so much for watching! Please leave your rules questions in the comments below and we'll keep this post updated with answers for the most common or important questions. *FAQ and Noted Errors* RULES UPDATE: As of 6/19/2023, Champions no longer awaken on level up. They will remain the position they were in at the previous level. This won't usually matter when leveling during the Materialize step, but would previously come up when leveling with a card activation like Beseech the Winds or Dungeon Guide. RULES ERROR: At 17:40, during the description of Opportunity, it's stated that "the opponent" receives opportunity in items 3., 4., and 5. (before Recollection, before Retaliation, before Damage). In reality, BOTH PLAYERS receive opportunity at those times, beginning with the Turn Player. FAQ: *1. Are there any deck building restrictions such as only using Warrior allies with Warrior champions?* No, there are not! You can freely play Mage allies while you have a Warrior champion, etc. Just watch out for cards with the [Class Bonus] ability, which will only gain that effect while your CURRENT champion level matches the card's class (or one of its classes).

It is clear that you have put a lot of effort into the tutorial. Game itself looks beautiful and is not difficult to understand. Unfortunately I live in a place where no one will play cards with me, so I only play digital cards :(

[@neverclever0]

I've watched a lot of "how to play" videos in my day: for MANY board games and numerous other TCGs. Very clear and well-explained. This game takes ideas from a lot of other games. "hand as resource" from Final Fantasy TCG, tap to deal damage back from Ashes: Rise of the Phoenixborn, the idea of champions and weapons from Flesh and Blood and Hearthstone. And of course the creature combat of MTG. Even a little bit of the 'enabling' from Might and Magic: Duel of Champions. I bought some starter decks, and am looking forward to seeing how all these ideas play out.

[@MaindeckGames]

Thanks so much, that comment makes my day :) Hope you enjoy the game!

[@raymondyang2018]

So in theory, you can mix and match different champions and spirits in your Material deck (maybe kind of like a pre-sideboard depending on matchup), but it's generally not advantageous to do so since having the same class/lineage grants additional bonuses.

[@MaindeckGames]

Your Material deck could contain ANY champion levels, yep - however, most levels have Lineage requirements so you can't go from, for example, Rai level 1 to Lorraine level 2. The exception are the "lineage break" level 2s like Tristan and Merlin which have no Lineage requirement! Even still, we've seen some interesting ideas where players have built around multiple champions and would go down one path or another based on their matchup!

[@Japaninhimself]

This video is excellent! Great work. I now know. How to play this game! Unlike the official GA channel. Which most people that are interested in this game will watch. They should of had the foresight to make a video like this. It’s. A glaring weakness that TCG companies always seem to miss. Once again. This video is perfect. I appreciate your hard work put into making this how to play video.

[@MaindeckGames]

Thank you so much for the kind words! The GA team helped me a lot in creating this by double checking my script, rules info, and providing assets, so I do know they were very interested in having something like this done as well. :) I'm very glad it helped you out!

[@MaindeckGames]

Yes, those champions do not have a *lineage* requirement listed in their text box, so ANY level 1 can level into them, regardless of class. However, no level 3s currently can can level *from* those "lineage break" level 2s, so you are stuck there once you reach it!

[@robrick9361]

6:44 Duel Masters, Spoils, Alpha Clash : "Are we all jokes to you?"

[@MaindeckGames]

No, none of those games have the same resource system :) In those games, cards are placed one per turn as resources which remain in your resources until the end of game (or an effect removes them). You can then exhaust those resources to pay for card costs. However, in GA, each turn you place cards into memory to pay costs, and the following turn those cards will return to your hand. You can also banish cards in memory to materialize cards before you return them to hand. Thus, cards placed in memory early may end up being played later on, and your hand size dictates your resources, not a growing resource pile. Very different concept to work with!

[@robrick9361]

@@MaindeckGames So it's more like Flesh and Blood's pitching mechanic except the cards go back into the hand instead of the deck. That's interesting. It's a shame so much of the art looks like it was drawn by aspiring hentai artists.

[@MaindeckGames]

Yes, FAB is about the closest comparison, but doesn't have the same buildup/builddown options over turns that GA has. The art may not be for everyone!

This is a really good video to introduce someone to how the game works and I used it as a guideline to understanding the game so thank you very much for this. I will ask a single question though and sorry if this is explained already. Do champions gain back all their life on level up or are they similar to normal allies who have the life reset at end of turn?

[@MaindeckGames]

Champions do not reset damage - leveling will increase their max life but not remove any taken!

You can't use more than one Weapon per attack. Maybe we'll see someone who can "dual wield" at some point!

[@DJDizz05]

So at the end your champion attacking is still considered in the main phase before you play tactful sergeant?

[@MaindeckGames]

Yes! Starting a Combat Phase interrupts the Main Phase, but doesn't end it. You can activate any allies/slow speed cards before, between, and after attacks. This is different than games like Magic, and similar to games like Dragon Ball Super!

[@Kadmos]

Concise rules video! One thing I was wondering about, you mentioned Rai could remove counters at fast speed to draw a card. Does using abilities rest your champion? Or would it specifically say rest as a cost? If Rai was rested (for example, to attack), would he still be able to remove counters to draw?

[@MaindeckGames]

Thank you! Using abilities does not rest your champion unless it specifically says as a cost (there is a symbol that shows turning the card). So you can definitely still use Enlighten counters when rested (it's technically an ability of the counters anyway, not an ability of the champion!)

Obrigado pelo seu gentil comentário! Estou feliz por poder ajudar!

[@doomstothfilms]

It feels like going first is objectively worse than going second. You skip draw and don't actually have anything to attack. Second place gets to draw and can attack right away, so if first for whatever reason does not have an ally to play just takes a hit.

[@MaindeckGames]

That's an awesome observation. What we've found in a lot of competitive testing is that going first or second is very dependent on the deck/match up. The player going first is able to push to higher levels faster, which can be a massive advantage for some decks. Others definitely prefer second for the reasons you listed!

[@KuroNekoji]

[@animeaddiction00]

This is an awesome reminder of how to play since it’s been a few months for me, thanks for the video! Although I feel the timing for reactions wasn’t done properly when I last played.. (but it was a casual league and I’m still very new so I don’t want to be nitpicky, just be sure I’m learning) like the cost is still paid for the card attempting to activate before you try a fast response if you have one. If that’s right, then I could potentially save myself from arcane wreckage with frostbind, I think..? 😅

[@MaindeckGames]

Yes, the cost has to be fully paid to activate a card - so if your opponent's card is negated with Frostbind, they don't get the cards they placed in memory to pay for it back until their next recollection step!

[@anab0lic]

[@SkywalkFPV]

I am looking at the Demo game around @21:45 after activating invigorated Slash you turn the Hero card horizontally to indicate the Hero is attacking, but turning the weapon itself would make more sense since that is the actual attack power alongside Slash (also because placing a hero in resting state, makes no sense to me since it has no attack to defend with?!).. Also Slash did not get turned horizontally upon the attack, is that simply not necessary for attack cards that don`t survive into the next turn? Would love to see more easy games like this explained.. Cheers..

[@MaindeckGames]

Resting the Champion is a cost to attacking, whether you are using an attack card, a weapon, or both. This is important because you can not normally attack with the same unit twice in a turn, including a Champion, unless you use an effect to awaken it. Attack cards and weapons do not rest when used for an attack - and Attack cards get discarded as soon as the Attack sequence has completed, just like Action cards. Hope that makes a little more sense, let me know if you have any more questions!

[@trianglespank]

Thanks, super helpful

[@Kindlesmith70]

3:01 so this makes me wonder, what happened to earth, and what would be considered abnormal? I'm guessing the specific named elements are abnormal. Heh. So the cards fall alseep when they used, and wake up at the start of a turn. This sounds funny. Removing cards from hand as a cost is a thing some games have. Banishing cards as a cost is thing that can happen in some of the games. I guess combining the two makes it different in a way, but the methods aren't new. Just so I don't sound like I'm am making stuff up I'll name 2. Final Fantasy TCG, & Take The Galaxy. Even in MtG you can have cards that blow up to provide mana. I actually thought there was something really new to the system when you mentioned different from other games. Always keen to see different systems in action. Interesting they chose to give everyone (effectively) Haste, or Rush. Being able to attack the same turn played is pretty strong. Am I wrong to think being second is a blessing because of this? Not only are you allowed to draw cards, but you can also attack first. It seems like going first allows for possible levelling up sooner, but how much of an edge is that over getting cards and attacking in one go?

[@LoreFoundry]

Thank you.

[@rexliu5768]

Very friendly video for beginner.

[@osman_ajmal4011]

Apologies if this has been explained before, but I'm assuming you can only materialise one card per materialise phase?

[@MaindeckGames]

Correct, only (up to) one per turn unless another effect allows you to do extra (such as Beseech the Winds)!

[@deebzscrub]

Not sure if you're still checking comments on this video but figure it's worth a shot since I came here to re-learn the rules. So I just got my cards in and the Spirit of [Element] cards don't have that inherited ability printed on them that your champion inherits and activates that element when leveled up. Do you happen to know if that's a misprint or if there was some rules change there?

[@MaindeckGames]

Yeah, that ended up being removed and simply packed into the rules for your Lineage - you enable any elements that are in your Lineage (the champion levels you have used). So no need for the extra text there!

Hey Dan, I got a couple of questions. For Phantasia cards, if you rest them they wake up during your next wake up phase correct? also for the "Plea for Peace" card the "1" (with yellow bubble) refers a memory cost? Does that mean opponents have to put 1 card down into their memory for each attack? Thanks for your help.

[@MaindeckGames]

Great questions- those mechanics were added in later sets! Yes, phantasias wake up with everything else during the Wake Up Phase, and the yellow circle with a number is also a reserve cost and is paid exactly as you describe.

[@TheProphetWind]

The one thing i was hoping to learn was not in the video... I just got into GA and I have one question im having a issue finding the answer to and that is when you level a hero using a card effect (Melodious flute) i know you get the effect of the next level of the champion but what about health pool. Nothing in the rules mentions the health pool in this manner.

[@MaindeckGames]

Damage taken stays on champions - but as you level, your health pool may increase per the number in the lower right. So if Lorraine has taken 5 damage so far this game, when she levels from 1 to 2, she'll still have 5 damage on her, but the total damage required for her to lose the game will increase from 20 to 24 while she is on that level.

[@mcclainfarley2266]

This game is cool hope it gets popular

[@longdonggaming6152]

Counters remain as you level!

Yep, you can always "peek" at the cards you have in Memory. Cards in your Material deck will only be in your Material deck - they are are the cards with a blue circle cost in the upper left. The ones with a Yellow circle cost go in the Main deck. You can have only a single copy of any Material Deck card, but cards that go in the Maindeck can be in sets of up to 4x each.
