- 01
Learn the battle screen
Understand play points, field limit, hand limit, evolution resources, and the second-player bonus before chasing wins.
- 02
Sample every class
Use story, practice, and starter content to learn what each craft asks you to track.
- 03
Claim free value first
Open the daily free pack and clear early missions before spending rupies, tickets, crystals, or vials.
- 04
Commit to one real deck
Copy a proven shell from the official Deck Portal, play it repeatedly, then change cards for reasons you can name.
THE DECK LABA deck is a plan expressed in 40 cards
Start with a win condition, then make room for early plays, interaction, card access, and the turns that bridge you to the finish. Every inclusion should answer a question your deck actually faces.

Common Worlds Beyond questions
Do I need to play the original Shadowverse first?+
No. Worlds Beyond is a separate client and its official onboarding teaches the current battle system. Returning players will recognize the class identities, but new players can start here.
Which class is easiest for a new player?+
Cygames specifically describes Swordcraft as suitable for beginners learning battle basics. It is a sensible first stop, but sample every class before spending heavily.
How many cards are in a deck?+
A standard deck contains 40 cards from one chosen class plus Neutral cards. The official Deck Portal can copy a popular list or help you build one from scratch.
What should I spend rupies on?+
Card packs are the main use described by the official site. Before committing resources, open the daily free pack, finish early missions and story rewards, then decide which class you want to support.
How do I move my account to another device?+
Link the original game data to a Cygames ID first. On the new device, sign in using the same Cygames ID and the same third-party or email method used to create it.
Is the meta section always current?+
No static guide can promise that. Patch-sensitive deck recommendations point to the official Deck Portal and are clearly separated from evergreen rules and learning advice.
