Each of the following turns includes:

- Player turn which enables player to:

- dealt Player's cards calculation – actions described in the card Action part (damages are caused; resources condition is changed). Long duration cards are placed into stack.

- Opponent turn

- Player's stack calculation – Player's stack cards make actions. Cards which duration is over are removed from stack.

- Opponent's stack calculation

- Draw step – as many cards from the Deck are dealt to the players as they need for a full hand. If no cards are available, the cards from Grave move to Deck and shuffle.

- Cleanup – dealt and removed from the stack cards are moved into grave.
