In tournaments, align your deck to minimize your weaknesses and maximize your strengths. Pay attention to the effects of the cards and their interaction with the tournament theme.

Manage your money and resources well throughout the game. Plan your purchases and sales efficiently, always aiming for the highest profit.

Adapt to the circumstances and be flexible. The cards available and the actions of your opponents may require quick strategic changes.

Mechanics of Millennium Blades

  • Hand Management: In Millennium Blades, players build and adjust their decks using a limited set of cards representing collectible cards. Decisions about which cards to keep on hand or sell are crucial to balancing financial resources and maximizing performance in tournaments. Each card offers unique abilities and synergies, requiring strategy to optimize combinations.
  • Collecting Sets: Players try to collect sets of cards that go well together in order to score high in tournaments. Completing collector's albums also gives significant bonuses. Collections can be thematic, focused on similar skills or elements, promoting a constant search for specific cards that optimize these synergies.
  • Negotiation: Trading cards with other players is key to building efficient collections. Players exchange cards to complete sets or adjust their strategies. Negotiation skills can also include persuading others about the values of cards, constantly seeking to improve one's own deck or collection.
  • Commodities speculation: The card market is volatile and speculating on the value of cards is essential. Buying cards in the expectation that their value will rise or selling before the price falls are vital decisions. In-game events can influence supply and demand, encouraging players to be vigilant and adjust their actions as the market fluctuates.
  • Simulação: Millennium Blades simulates the world of collectible card games and the tournaments in which players compete. The simulation involves everything from buying booster packs to taking part in social events, replicating the experience of being a professional card collector.
  • Real time: Significant parts of the game take place in real time, where players have a limited amount of time to carry out actions such as buying, selling, trading or preparing the deck for a tournament. This time pressure adds an element of urgency and rapid strategy, forcing quick and effective decisions.
