# Battle Start

### 1. Initial Draw

At the beginning of the game, five cards are automatically drawn from the deck and become your hand.

### 2. Mulligan

Players can see all 5 cards drawn and can mark cards to send back in deck for change and draw new in place only once before the game starts if the player wants to change.

If none of the character cards cost 1 or less, then all the cards will be automatically exchanged until the player draws one.
