Every turn has five phases

Read the phases in order, then press Continue. Lesson step numbers count these instructions; they are not game phases.

Why this matters

1. Initialize: ready your cards and gain resources. 2. Deploy: play cards and use abilities. 3. Netcheck: handle effects that say On netcheck. 4. Combat: choose attackers, choose blockers, then deal damage. 5. Reset: clear character damage and turn-long effects, then the other player starts their turn. Every phase happens, even if you take no action.
