    How the Afterglow Game Works

    Goal:

    Win 2 rounds in a best-of-three match.

    Round Play Actions (×3):

    Each alternating play action turn, both players secretly choose 2 cards.

    Then reveal simultaneously, and stack them to their Wave Pile. “On Reveal” effects trigger here.

    Showdown:

    After three turns, players resolve their Wave Piles top → down. “Resolve” effects fire in order, then each side tallies Total DEF − Opponent’s Total ATK to decide the round.

    Before the stream: Secure a Rip Night slot by pre ordering a Wave 1 Booster Pack. Your order secures a place on launch night. If you can’t attend, we still open your pack live and post your clip.

    During the stream: A top-down camera shows every step. We call your name/handle, open your pack, announce the hits, and sleeve/topload them immediately!

    Chase moments: Legendary (serialized) hits trigger a call-out and an archive clip for social media promotion. Creator bounties (if offered) are confirmed on stream.

    After the stream: We label, pack, and ship your cards to the address on file. Tracking is emailed automatically.

    Safety & fairness: Queue order follows purchase timestamps; no swaps. Harassment, doxxing, or ban evasion leads to permanent removal and order cancellation.
