With any DBG it may sound silly to say “getting cards out of your deck is a good thing”. But in Resident Evil, it’s not the only viable strategy towards building a good deck to take on the Mansion. Cards like “Item Management” allow you to cycle up your Ammo into larger ammo, which gives you an increase in production for the cost of a single card, as opposed to buying up larger amounts of ammo and then trying to trash out the lower cost ones. It helps keep your deck size small, but still allows you to purchase more powerful weapons and actions. There are other cards that allow you to replace cards on the top of your deck or pull cards out of your discard pile, so you can get many uses of the same weapon before it shuffles into your deck.

So the next time you go about building your deck for Resident Evil, try looking at cards that allow for multiple uses of the same weapons, or a way to keep your deck thin, but to ‘trade up’ your ammo into better ammo for those late game weapons.
