 The New Game route uses a luck manipulation until the first boss, Harab Serap. After that point, the general route depends on the stage and needs at the time. You need to be careful with your points, which cards to sell or upgrade that may drop along the way. While you will want to purchase card packs, make sure to leave enough points for any upgrades you want to do. The New Game route uses a luck manipulation until the first boss, Harab Serap.

-Cost -4 and Ally Cost -4 are fantastic when upgraded, but are the weakest cost reduction cards in the game. Many of the character cards are pretty bad and should be sold. There are some exceptions.

 If you wanted to grind for points, Military Gain+ is a great way to do it, along with Big Boss on stages where ATK doesn't matter. GRU soldier is more cost efficient than GRU soldier+. Reaction Block sells for 1000 points!

-Hip Shot+ is a fantastic card. AKM's upgrade AKMN comes in clutch due to its anti-armor properties. ATK Linkage/Hit Linkage/Cost Linkage/Add AP Linkage can all be very useful, especially Add AP Linkage for Metal gear fights. Choke+, Survival Knife+, and William Tell+ are great ways to deal damage and take out enemies. VZ61/VZ61+ are okay silenced AOE guns, but are costly at 8. OICW is only good for providing ammo, and nothing else.+Hip Shot+ is a fantastic card. AKM's upgrade AKMN comes in clutch due to its anti-armor properties.

-Hang and Solid Snake (MGS2) are situationally very useful, as certain stages have shortcuts if you can hang from a rail. Hang is a decent filler at 4 cost, Solid Snake (MGS2) needs a 1k upgrade to be a 4 cost filler. Best to keep Solid Snake (MGS2) for stages that need hang.

 Silenced/Silenced+ allows you to use weapons you normally couldn't use when sneaking around, which can be very useful in certain stages. Double Action can give you a prolific turn with either character, if you have the right cards to complement it. Defense Linkage acts as a filler card that improves your defense. Uniform-B and Uniform-G are better than Body Armor, providing more protection for the same cost. Silenced/Silenced+ allows you to use weapons you normally couldn't use when sneaking around, which can be very useful in certain stages.
