Q&A:

Q: What does 'quanta producing' mean?
A: A quanta producing card is any card, regardless of type or effect, that adds to your quanta pool. The mark you start a game with is not considered a card, but any marks you play from your hand are.

[Vangelios]

Mark of deck counts as a quanta source, then the maximum is 9 pillars / pendulums?

[ddevans96]

This was meant to mean 10 quanta producing cards, with mark counted separately. Rules have been changed to reflect this.

[eljoemo]

So your mark DOES NOT count towards the 10 cards?

Is quanta generating only Pillars, Pends, Dragonfly, Soul Catcher and Solar Shield or do we count Dry spell or others?

• Your deck's summoning cost must be higher than 70, inclusively.[/li]
  

Why not use the rule as well?

• You deck's summoning cost must be 70 or greater.

Thus it is quite clear, without requiring post Q & A every time they use similar rule.

[ddevans96]

Cal's original wording. I thought about changing it upon making it public, but I decided not to, because they mean the exact same thing, and honestly there shouldn't be anyone confused by either. The Q&A for it was posted in advance just in case.

Clarified this in the Q&A.

[w4sh1ng7on]

Using the text as I posted, I do not need a Q & A. If every time you use this rule as it is written it takes one Q & A, simply means that it is not clear.
Perhaps it clear to those who use English fluently, but for anyone who uses a translator, no.

[ddevans96]

I'd like to debate linguistics, but this isn't the place for that. Rule clarified.

[Hannal]

1.  Where does Luciferin fall on the "quanta producing card" index?
2.  Where does Dry Spell fall on the "quanta producing card" index?
3.  Would it simply be easier to provide a picture (pretty!) of cards that are considered "quanta producing"?

[dawn to dusk]

:/ harsh rules this time... hope i can make some half decent decks

[Fippe94]

I would guess Dry Spell is quanta producing, but Luci is trickier, since it doesn't directly add to your quanta pool, just indirectly.
