Apart from a Leader card, both players receive 10 random cards that they will have in hand for the duration of the game unless replaced or removed with the use of other cards. Before you start playing, you can choose and replace up to 3 cards. If you dislike just one and want to get something better in its place, you can swap the same card three times. If you don't want to replace anything, you can skip this stage - simply press the RMB and confirm your decision.
