ー What is the
hololive OFFICIAL CARD GAME? ー
The hololive OFFICIAL CARD GAME is a trading card game built on the concept of “Comp-Creation”
— Co-creation and competing with everyone.
Players, as fans of the talent,
will produce the most impressive stage with their chosen “Oshi holomem” and other “holomem.”
Players send “Cheers” to their holomem
to reach the top of the “hololive Exstreamer Cup.”
Make new friends and
make the most of your hololive "Oshi" Katsu (or, in short, holoKatsu”) with this new trading card game!
* “holomem” is the abbreviation for “the hololive member(s).”
ー Starting the Game ー
To play the hololive OFFICIAL CARD GAME, you will need to build a deck first.
For those unfamiliar with card games, try out the Start Deck,
which is built so you can play immediately.
If you want to find different ways to rise to the top with your Oshi holomem or build your deck with different holomem,
the Booster Pack is a great option to expand and strengthen it.
ー Introduction to the Card Types ー
There are 4 types of cards in the
hololive OFFICIAL CARD GAME.
Oshi holomem Card
The Oshi holomem card is a special card in which you can only have one in the game. During the game, the card is not placed inside the deck; it will be placed on the playing field from the start to the end.
Each Oshi holomem card has a different “Oshi skill” and an “SP Oshi skill” that can only be used once in each game. By using it wisely, you may be able to turn the tables on your opponent!
The Oshi holomem card may be the key to bringing your Oshi to the peak of glory!
Cheer Card
holomem use a performance move called “Arts” to outshine the other players. For the holomem to use “Arts,” players need to send cheers to them. During the game, players send cheers to the holomem using a cheer card.
At the start of each turn, one cheer card will be drawn from the cheer deck and sent to any holomem on the stage.
holomem Card
After receiving cheers from the players, the holomem can perform an “Arts (Performance).” Each holomem has different stats and skills with which you can create many combinations. These cards are the main cards you will deal with.
Support your Oshi holomem cards to create the best stage!
Support Card
A helping card that supports the holomem with different skills. Strong cards can only be used once for each turn.
