What is Build Points?

Hi!

I'm +/- new to this card game, but I've look at lot about infos on it! And there's one thing I don't really know what it is: Build Points.

It's number on the upper-right corner of an Attack Card. I found nothing about it in the Online Demo Instruction Booklet, except of it's name (even in the Glossary they don't tell it). Since, in the Demo Decks, the number are from 0 to 3, I guess it has it's importance, but, well, I don't know what it does...

Can someone tell me? Or is it kinda useless?

Build points are attack card specific, they're used in deck construction, your battle deck has to have a certain number of cards, and a certain number of points, not sure if it's less than or equal to, or specifically equal to, but that's the gist of it.

i think the attack deck must be made of exactly 20 cards and i heard somewhere that the points have to equal 21 but i cant confirm that. and the points range from 0-3 so if you load up on 3 ponts cards you'r deck is basically gonna be 6-3 point cards,1-1 point card, and like 13-0 point cards. all or most attack cards, even 0 point cards deal some damage but essentially the more points,the more base damage the cards do. this doesn't include element additions or effects like challenges and checks.

Well, I've looked back at the 2 demo decks, did the add, and the sum of the 20 attack cards is... 20! So I guess you must have both 20 in cards AND in points, not 21... Yet, just like you, I can't confirm: Maybe 21 is a maximum...

Maybe they should have put more info in the rules! :p

Well, anyway, thanks for the answers! :D
