Deck

After start of battle before you did any action you can Mulligan your hand:

• all cards from your hand is shuffled into your deck;
• you draw hew hand with one less cards than you had before (6 instead of 7, 5 instead of 6,...)

This is usually useful when you don't like your starting hand or want to start with some specific card/cards.

Cycle
