Cyberpunk TCG Rules FAQ: What 269 Official Rulings Settle

Besides the Comprehensive Rules and the Tournament Rules, WeirdCo publishes a third rules document written as the questions a player asks mid-game: a Rules FAQ with 269 official rulings, 244 of them on specific cards. It settles the GO SOLO question the rulebook left open, half-settles the Sell contradiction, and makes clear which card effects you cannot decline.

Cyberpunk TCG Night City Brawl and Showdown Prizes

Before Chicago crowns a Regional champion, local stores crown their own: the Night City Showdown window opens one week after retail. WeirdCo has now published every prize for it and for the weekly Brawls, and the card database already carries all of the promo cards - including a headline Showdown prize that only a mono-Yellow deck can legally play.

Cyberpunk TCG Tournament Rules: The 7-Card Sideboard

Every deckbuilding breakdown on this site — the RAM ceiling, the 30-card sealed floor, the 40-to-50-card main deck — has been describing half a decklist. WeirdCo published the other half today: a mandatory 7-card sideboard nobody outside the company knew existed, alongside dice-check statistics, a card that is already banned before most of the set has hit shelves, and the real names behind two Nova Rare promos this site has been calling mysteries for a month.

Cyberpunk TCG Edgerunner Open: $75 Tickets, 10 Prize Tiers

As of 12 September, WeirdCo's own Edgerunner Open post said venues, ticket prices, prizing and format were all still unpublished. Nine days later they are all live on cyberpunktcg.com/eor - McCormick Place, Warsaw EXPO XXI, a $75 Major Leagues badge, an 8-round-then-playoffs format, a ten-step prize ladder, and a serialized Encrypted Legends mechanic explained in full for the first time. The four alt-art promos WeirdCo teased on stream in September have also turned up in the card database - not as one printing each, but four art variants apiece.

Cyberpunk TCG's Deck Builder Is Live: 716 Decks So Far

WeirdCo's official Deck Builder went live on 2 September 2026, and by 16 September the community had published 716 public decks through it. Pull every one through the tool's own API and a pattern falls out that the RAM-ceiling math alone could not show: which colours people actually pair, which Legend is in more than a quarter of all decks, and which one of the 27 Legends in the database has never been picked once.

Cyberpunk TCG Edgerunner Open: Dates, Tickets, 12 Promos

WeirdCo's Organized Play page still says the Edgerunner Open Regional schedule is coming 'in due course'. On 4 September it named two cities and five ticket-sale dates, and the official card database has quietly gone further than the announcement did: twelve cards now carry an Edgerunner Open Season 1 printing, eight of them Legends stamped with a serial box.

Cyberpunk TCG Keywords Explained: All 9, 86 Cards Use One

Cyberpunk TCG's official card database has a Keyword filter with zero options in it, so nothing tells you the game has keywords at all unless you read every card. It does: nine bracketed tokens, split by the Comprehensive Rules into four trigger keywords, four effect keywords and one activation shorthand it does not call a keyword. Eighty-six of the 151 cards print at least one, four cards print three, and three keywords turn out to be things one card gives another rather than something every printed instance owns.

Cyberpunk TCG Tags: 39 Printed, 10 With Payoff Cards

Cyberpunk TCG prints 39 tags across the 151 cards in its official database, and the Comprehensive Rules give them a real definition — an effect naming a tag references every card carrying it. Then only 13 cards in the whole pool name a tag at all, covering 10 of the 39. Arasaka is the deepest supported one with four; Netrunner has 13 cards and nothing that cares.

Cyberpunk TCG Comprehensive Rules: 10 Rulings That Bite

WeirdCo published the Cyberpunk TCG Comprehensive Rules on 28 August 2026 — 11 numbered sections and 660 numbered rules, thirteen days before the first Beta Events. It is the first public document that answers rules arguments rather than teaching the game, and ten of its rulings change decisions you would otherwise make from the Gameplay Guide alone. It also contradicts itself in three places.

Cyberpunk TCG: 11 Cards You Cannot Pull From a Booster

The official Cyberpunk TCG card database now lists 131 cards, and eleven of them have no printing in either Welcome to Night City booster set. Five belong to the Embracing Power starter deck, five to The Heist, and one — Rebecca: Having a Moment — is not in any product you can buy. Seven of the eleven are Legends, which is 28% of a card type you are required to run three of.

Cyberpunk TCG Sealed Deck Rules: RAM Does Not Apply

Until this week the sealed half of Cyberpunk TCG was a card count and nothing else. WeirdCo published the rest of it on 19 August 2026, and the headline is that the constructed format's defining constraint — the per-colour RAM ceiling your three Legends set — is switched off entirely. Your Legends stop being a deckbuilding licence and become three cards you flip.

Every Cyberpunk TCG Legend Is RAM 2. That Turns Deckbuilding Into One Decision

WeirdCo tells you your Legends set your deck's RAM ceiling and leaves it there. Run the rule against the 151 cards in the official database and it collapses into something much harder: every Legend that prints a RAM value carries RAM 2, so you have exactly six RAM to spend, and how you split it decides which of the 36 gated non-Legend cards you can reach at all.
