Aquatic Assault [ST11]: Blue-Purple Marine Deck
Aquatic Assault is a Blue-Purple starter deck built around the Marine trait and led by Char's Z'gok. It rewards players who plan two moves ahead rather than swinging first. Many cards grow stronger the more underwater Units you keep in play, and others add defensive effects that make your formation hard to break apart.
The deck draws Mobile Suits from Mobile Suit Gundam, Gundam Unicorn, After War Gundam X, Turn A Gundam, Gundam SEED and Gundam SEED Destiny.
Who it suits: patient players who like setting up a strong defensive board and winning through value.
Raging Onslaught [ST12]: Red-Purple Close-Combat Deck
Raging Onslaught is a Red-Purple starter deck built for relentless close-range pressure, headlined by Gundam Epyon. It pairs Epyon with Milliardo Peacecraft and rewards you for finishing off enemies that are already damaged.
Rather than focusing on one series, the deck selects close-combat Mobile Suits from Gundam Wing: Endless Waltz, Mobile Fighter G Gundam, Mobile Suit Gundam 00, Gundam Unicorn, the original Mobile Suit Gundam, Gundam SEED Destiny and GQuuuuuuX.
Who it suits: players who would rather attack first and keep the pressure on.
Silent Barrage [ST13]: Green-Red Bit and Funnel Deck
Silent Barrage is a Green-Red starter deck built around long-range Bit and Funnel attacks, headlined by Qubeley. Qubeley deploys a pair of Bit/Funnel tokens whenever a Pilot is paired with one of your Units. Haman Karn and Suletta Mercury provide the deck's Pilot cards.
The deck draws from Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam, the original Mobile Suit Gundam, Char's Counterattack, After War Gundam X, Mobile Suit Gundam 00, The Witch from Mercury and GQuuuuuuX. The box includes 4 Bit/Funnel Unit token cards.
Who it suits: players who like controlling the battlefield from a distance and building a wide board.
Heavy Dominion [ST14]: Green-White Heavy-Armed Deck
Heavy Dominion is a Green-White starter deck built around heavy equipment and weaponry, headlined by The-O. It's a board-control strategy designed to outlast the opposition. The-O links with Paptimus Scirocco and has a Suppression ability that can damage two of an opponent's Shields at once and lock down their weakest rested Unit.
Full Armor Unicorn Gundam joins The-O, along with machines from Mobile Suit Gundam 0080: War in the Pocket, Char's Counterattack, After War Gundam X, Gundam Wing: Endless Waltz and Gundam SEED.
Who it suits: players who want sturdy Units and a steady, powerful late game.
