The One Piece Card Game has become one of the most popular card games currently. If you like Eiichiro Oda's work and want to start playing, here's how it works and where to begin without getting confused.

What is the One Piece Card Game?

It's the official collectible card game of One Piece, created by Bandai. Each player builds a deck around a Leader card (a character from the series) and faces their opponent using characters, events, and DON!! cards to boost their attacks.

How to Play (the Basics)

Without getting into complex rules: you choose a Leader, build a 50-card deck in their colors (red, green, blue, purple, black, or yellow), and use DON!! cards as energy to play characters and attack. The winner is whoever depletes the rival Leader's life.

Where to Start

The easiest way is with a Starter Deck: it comes ready to play, so you learn with a balanced deck and choose the one with your favorite character or color. When you want to improve it, you move on to booster packs and booster boxes to get more cards.

Packs, Booster Boxes, and Tins

When you're ready to open more, booster boxes give you volume to find the most desired cards, and tins are a compact and collectible option. Find them in our One Piece Card Game collection.

English or Japanese?

The One Piece Card Game is mostly available in English (the most used in tournaments and widely available) and Japanese (usually released earlier and loved by collectors). We compare them in this language guide.

A Tip: Protect Your Cards

As with any TCG, sleeve your best cards from the beginning. You can find sleeves and toploaders here.
