==Gameplay==
When the arrows located at the bottom of each AR card are lined up, battle commences. Each card has four attributes: attack, health (HP), speed, and type.  The higher the speed, the more often a card attacks, subtracting its attack strength from the opponent's health. When a card's health hits zero, it loses. Shield beats sword, which in turn beats magic, which beats shield. Class does not affect battle, and no random or skill based factors are used.

Unaffiliated characters are those that don't necessarily support either side, although they can still be classified as good or evil. [[Magnus]], [[Souflee]], and the [[Fighter]]s can be considered neutral, while [[Dark Pit]] takes on an antagonistic role despite him not being affiliated with the Underworld Army. Certain items also fall into this group, such as the Fiend's Cauldron. This class is represented by a simplistic oval symbol and the color grey.
