One of the core concepts in the One Piece Card Game, like most trading card games, is the color wheel. In One Piece, players can build decks from between six different color archetypes.

Each One Piece color has its own identity and inherent play style, with some focusing on reducing enemy power levels, others flooding the field with characters and powerful threats, and some relying on the power of life triggers (and a little luck) to swing the battle in their favor after taking damage.
