Summary
Players do drafting ("Deck Phase") and card reveal ("Match Phase") phases for 7 rounds.
2 players qualify for a final match by having the most fans after all 7 rounds.
For 1-2 players, there is no final, and the player with the most fans wins. If a player has an 11-fan advantage after a Match Phase in a 1-2 player game, they win immediately.
Deck Phase
In the Deck Phase, players add 1 or 2 cards to their deck from a random secret display of 5 cards. Players can discard this display and redraw once per Deck Phase. Finally, players can remove cards to trim their deck.
Match Phase
Players are paired in different arenas where they fight for the flag by flipping cards from their deck. Players flip cards until they match or surpass the card that currently holds the flag.
