Digimon Card Game Sealed Format Rules
Digimon Card Game Sealed Format Rules
■Experience the fun of sealed format!
In sealed format, players each open a set number of booster packs from specified sets, and build their decks using only the cards they open.
Unlike standard play, you can ignore color when digivolving cards (only level and digivolution cost matter) and there are special rules for deckbuilding.
■Suggested Packs to Use
-6 Packs (each participants should use the same number of packs.)
■Deck Construction Rules
After opening 6 packs, players build a 40-card deck, and a 0-5 card Digi-Egg deck. There are no banned or restricted cards, and players can include as many copies of cards with the same card number as they like. (There is no 4-card limit and 5 or more copies of a card with the same card number can be included in decks.) Any cards left over from deck construction are treated as sideboard cards.
■Suggested Match Format
Use a Swiss draw format to match players with the closest win rates.
■Sideboards
Cards not used in decks are treated as sideboard cards. In-between games, players can exchange cards in their deck with cards in their sideboard. Players can exchange as many cards between deck and sideboard as they like, so long as they have a legal number of cards in their deck and Digi-Egg deck.
■Keeping Cards
Players can keep any cards they open in packs.
■Special Game Rules
In sealed format games, players can ignore digivolution color requirements.
Example: If a Digimon’s digivolution requirements are “red level 3 Digimon for digivolution cost of 2”, a player can digivolve onto any level 3 Digimon for a digivolution cost of 2, regardless of color.
Color can only be ignored for standard digivolutions. Color requirements in card text and for Option cards still apply. Color requirements still apply when digivolving Hybrids onto Tamers, or when digivolving via a card effect. However, when digivolving via card effect, if no color is specified by the effect, color requirements can be ignored.
Example: “Digivolve your [Agumon] into 1 [Agumon - Bond of Bravery] in your hand for its digivolution cost, ignoring its level” doesn’t specify a color, so you can digivolve using an [Agumon] of any color. (Only applies for sealed format games.)
