Palworld TCG Trial Deck Upgrade Guide – TD01 & TD02

Upgrade the engine before the finisher

TD01 and TD02 are already complete 50-card Main Decks with separate 10-card Soul Decks. The safest first upgrade is not replacing every simple card with an expensive BP01 pull. Improve four engine slots, confirm the deck still makes early plays, then add finishers only after several games.

TD01 Red/Blue first four-card upgrade

Exact first test: four cards out, four cards in

Jolthog Cryst is a simple cost-2 assignment body with no printed ability; this test keeps one copy from the reconstructed list. Antique Wooden Chair gives one Pal +1000 Power only on deploy, while Sphere Workbench supplies repeatable selection. Do not cut more cheap Pals until you know Stone Pit and both Workbenches still have enough assignment targets.

TD01 optional threat package

After the engine works, test one or two copies of Suzaku · EBP01-002 for deploy damage and one or two Azurobe · EBP01-029 for a card plus a rest effect. Both are Lucky Pals, so count every Lucky icon already in the Main Deck before adding them.

A more defensive TD01 can use Cryolinx · EBP01-038 as another Interrupt from hand. A slower Gear build can test Pump-Action Shotgun · EBP01-020, but seven-cost cards should not be added merely because their ceiling is high.

TD02 Green/Purple first four-card upgrade

Exact first test: four cards out, four cards in

Mossanda is a cost-5 Pal with no printed ability, while Breeding Farm spends Ingredients for card access or deployment. Refined Metal Spear is a reusable Power boost, but replacing it with Pyrin Noct gives this first test a real Strike-3 threat that can also nullify an attack from hand. Preserve Berry Plantation, Campfire, Broncherry, Astegon and Felbat until testing proves a different plan.

TD02 optional engine package

Test one or two Lyleen · EBP01-049 when the deck has enough cost-6-or-lower Pals worth finding. Add Katress · EBP01-075 only when the list also contains Pals that create value when butchered or useful normal Pals to return from the graveyard.

Shadowbeak · EBP01-074 and Helzephyr · EBP01-073 form a stronger night package together, but they should not be the first upgrade. Both cost seven or more, and their text becomes much weaker when the rest of the deck does not support Nocturnal turns.

Which Trial Deck cards should you remove?

Use performance, not rarity, to decide. After each game, note which cards were drawn but could not advance the board, protect an attack or support the deck's resource plan.

1. Cut blank cards first: a Pal with no ability is the easiest slot to compare with a BP01 card.
2. Trim duplicate roles: several expensive finishers can make the opening hand unplayable.
3. Keep the curve: replace a low-cost card with another low-cost card when possible.
4. Protect the engine: do not cut the Structures, Gear or Pals that create the deck's named resource.
5. Recount everything: finish at exactly 50 cards and recheck colors, same-name copies and Lucky icons.

A four-game upgrade test

If the answer is unclear after four games, keep testing instead of replacing another group. A small recorded sample is more useful than changing 20 cards and not knowing which change mattered.

Do you need a second Trial Deck?

Not automatically. One copy is enough to play. A second copy can supply additional fixed cards, but targeted singles are more controlled once you know the exact quantities missing. Compare the second deck price with the individual cards before buying.
