    Let's add side board to the game

    typical shadow era deck consists of 40 - 80 cards, with a limit of no more than four copies of any particular card. It's a bit more challenging to teach them about the extra cards that come along with, and yet are not part of, the deck. Harder still is the task of conveying just how important those cards are, and how vital it is to choose them carefully.

    Tournament matches are typically determined by a "best two-out-of-three" set of games. For the first game, both players play with their*main decks葉heir primary 40-80 cards that will be the same for the start of every match. After Game One, the players could have the option to swap in any number of the cards from their*sideboard*in an effort to make their deck better suited to

    Sideboards win tournaments. Because your sideboard cards can be more specialized用inpoint focused for a certain task or matchup葉hey're often your most powerful tools. Sometimes, sideboarding can be the most important factor in determining how two decks will match up against one another. Building and using your sideboard well will be crucial to your tournament success.

    All in all I believe side boards should be a must for tournaments. Bad match ups can be dealt with and make the game more balanced. And skill rather than match up becomes more of a factor.

    I would support adding a sideboard. Most physical card games allow them, and they work well. (I play no other digital TCGs)

    anyone who runs a tournament is free to add a sideboard, and a few have in the past i believe.
