Elements
The key to being successful is to take advantage of the elemental strengths and weaknesses. Each of your cards is associated with an element and this is represented by the colour of their boarder (red, green, blue, and yellow). Red trumps green but is weak against blue. Green trumps yellow but is weak against red. Yellow trumps blue but is weak against green. And blue trumps red but is weak against yellow.
