Trading Cards

Trading Cards are a series of battle cards for the upcoming card game, Elimination Time.
Elimination Time is a card game based on the Nickster Trickster franchise. The gameplay is similar to games such as Pokémon Trading Card Game or Magic: The Gathering, Yugioh, Muffin Time, and contains several references to items, traps, and spells and events from previous ntOSC episodes throughout the series.
So far, 36 cards in total, 15 Objects, 13 Traps and 8 spells have been revealed.
== Rules ==
Note: Rules are subject to severe changes as the game is not yet complete and is still being worked out.
=== Beginning the Game ===
* To play Elimination Time, each player must have:
** Decks, with a total of 62 cards.
** A Pencil (Referred to as the Magic Pencil in this game)
*** Each player begins the game with 3 randomly drawn cards. You can draw a new card or play a trap card.
=== Turn Phases ===
Turns consist of four phases: Draw phase, Main phase, Battle phase and End phase.
==== Draw Phase ====
During your Draw phase, you may:
* Place objects onto the playing field.
** There must be a maximum of 6 objects in play at a time.
*** Use one Action Item or Held Item card.
**** Action Items activate a special effect during your turn and are placed in the Dead pile immediately after use.
**** Held Items must be attached to an object. The item's effect is applied to the object holding it until the item is removed or the object is killed.
==== Main Phase ====
During your Act phase, you may use an object's Normal Attack or their Ability.
* The amount of damage dealt by a Normal Attack is equal to half of their HP. For example, an object with 8 HP would deal 4 damage.
** If an object has an odd number of HP, the attack damage rounds down. For example, 7 HP = 3 damage, 5 HP = 2 damage, and so on.
* If you use an object's Ability, you may not use their Normal Attack in the same turn.
During an opponent's Main phase, you may use a Counter Item to negate the effect of the specified attack, Item, or Ability.
=== Ending the Game ===
For the game to end, one of the following must happen:
* The opponent has no objects on the playing field and is not able to play any objects from their hand.
* The opponent has no more cards left to play in their deck.
* An Item, Ability, or Power is used which allows you to instantly win the game.
=== Extra Information ===
* Some objects have Powers rather than Abilities, which are permanent effects that do not need to be activated.
** Some Powers are active at all times, such as Otomotone's "Patreon Strength" Power, though some are triggered by certain events, such as Pool Noodle's "Water Spray" Power.
* When using an object's Normal Attack, Ability, or Power, that card is called the Primary object; the others on the field at the time are Companion objects.
