Deck is an aspect of a Mastermind's character build in Resident Evil: Resistance.
Gameplay
Set up
10 standard cards can be chosen to make a deck and each mastermind gains access to cards at their own unique progression.
During gameplay
During gameplay, 4 cards are drawn randomly and a new card instantly replaces the used card. When a Creature or Trap card is used, the player will be prompted to place it in the environment. When a Gun card is used, the player will instead control the camera they were on as a first person turret.
Using each card takes the designated Bio Energy.
When a Mastermind gains a special card from protecting a Supply Zombie, the card will be added once they use another card.
When Ultimate skill is available, it is presented as an available "5th card" and otherwise doesn't affect the rest of deck other than being how the player selects it.
List of cards
Cards are divided into 5 types, "Creature", "Trap", "Firearms", "Effect", and "Mod". Each type functions a specific way and are the determinant for if a certain Skills and Equipment affect them.
Cards that are strengthened by the Mastermind's abilities will be indicated by them glowing.
