How to Use the KP Deck Builder

Post by Mikara »

How to Make a Deck
  • Open the Kirricorp client
  • Click Cards and Decks
  • Hit Deck Manager
  • Select New Folder (You can right click the new folder here to Rename it.)
  • Right click the newly created folder. By right clicking you can hit New Deck on the newly created folder to create a new deck. (Edit: In order to delete a file you must delete all decks within the folder before you can successfully remove the folder)
  • After you create a new deck hit the plus sign on the left of your folder’s name to view your deck's details
  • Once your deck is open double click to open the Deck View window
  • This is the window in which you will begin deck creation
Searching for Cards

Click Search Cards (You should now have three windows open: Deck Manager, Deck View and Card Search). The Search Cards Interface has three different types of ways to look for cards: Main, Text, and Extra.
[*]Note: The search engine uses all pages at once. Make sure to reset current search tab if you wish to use only one tab's function.[/*]


Main
  • Here you can search cards by type (creature, spell, or Rune), elemental type, faction, power and cost.
  • For power and cost, the drop down window next to the quantity entry field has four symbols. <=, ==, => and !=. Respectively they are less than or equal to, equal to, greater than or equal to or not (as in quantity != 3 would exclude 3 but bring up all other costs).
  • This card search is excellent for strategic deck building allowing one to view all options at their disposal for conquering the enemy.
Text
  • The Text search has fewer options than the main search; however they are far more specific in function.
  • The Name box is where you can put in a specific card name. This allows those who have a specific deck build in mind, to quickly find the cards they are looking for.
  • The Ability drop down menu allows one to search by card effect
  • The Rules box allows you to search specific key phrases throughout all the cards. For example one can search the phrase “can’t attack players”, and the search would pull up all relevant cards. This search can help you look for cards with more specific effects even if you don’t remember the name of the exact card, or if you like an effect on one card but desire to find it in a different element or faction
Extra
  • Themed decks are always a fun part of card games. Divided into both Race and Set drop down menus, the extra search options allow you to easily find the cards available to make your sky dragon deck or whatever theme strikes your fancy.
Adding Cards
  • Once you have selected a card you want to add to your new deck, you can drag the preview image of the card in the Card Search window over to the currently empty space on the right hand side of the Deck Viewer window.
  • Now you can hit add one as many times as you desire in order to add multiples to your deck or subtract one to remove cards from your deck.
  • The right hand column provides the amount and names of the cards you have currently in your deck. By clicking on these on the right hand column a preview of that card will appear on the left hand side for your viewing pleasure.
And that’s it. Now go forth and make decks to conquer thine enemies in the war that is Chaos Fractal!
