All Students may use up to 3 unupgraded or upgraded shards of their choice. All Prefects may use up to 6 unupgraded or upgraded shards of their choice. The Head of the House may use up to 8 unupgraded or upgraded shards of their choice.
How does this rule interact with the 50% of each House Element rule for the purpose of deck building?
a) Can they replace cards of either element in the deck? (i.e. 12
, 15
, 3 shards)
b) Are they not included in the total cards in the deck for the purpose of calculating 50% (i.e. 31 card deck, 14
, 14
3 shards)
c) Are they included in the total cards, but not in either element (While this rule makes the most sense, it also makes it impossible for any student to actually use 3 shards - you will only be able to use shards in even number increments and still be able to maintain the 50% rule)
