G Assist (Gアシスト Jī-ashisuto) is a step within the turn player's draw phase, to help prevent them from being unable to ride to the next grade.

How it Works

After drawing a card in the draw step of your draw phase, proceed to your G Assist step. If you meet the following conditions, you may perform the following steps in this order.

Conditions

  1. Your vanguard must not be grade 3 or greater.
  2. You must not have any unit card in your hand that is 1 grade higher than your vanguard.

Steps

  1. Reveal your entire hand to your opponent to confirm that the 2nd condition is fulfilled. Then, your revealed hand returns to being a hidden zone.
  2. Look at five cards from the top of your deck. Put up to one card from among them with a grade that is 1 greater than your vanguard into your hand, then shuffle your deck.
  3. If you put a card into your hand this way, choose two cards from your hand and remove them from the game. If you do not have enough cards in your hand, remove all cards in your hand from the game.

Details

  • After performing G Assist, proceed to your ride phase. During the ride step of your ride phase, you may normal ride the card that you added to your hand, but you are not required to.
  • The removed cards are put into the removal zone, away from the main zones of the game but still visible to all players. This does not count as binding or discarding cards.
  • Order cards do not count for G Assist. For example, if you have a grade 1 vanguard, no grade 2 unit cards in hand, and a grade 2 order card in hand, you may declare G Assist; but you cannot use G Assist to add an order card to your hand. However, you may still remove order cards from your hand to pay the cost of G Assist.

D Series

In D-icon Standard, G Assist is not usable, as the Ride Deck fulfills the same purpose of guaranteeing that a player will be able to ride to the next grade every turn.

Trivia

  • The cost for G Assist formerly also required the player to remove two cards from their G zone in addition to their hand. Although this is no longer required, this action is still called G Assist.
  • In Cardfight!! Online, the cards are removed to "Exclusion Zone".
  • In Cardfight!! Vanguard EX, the cards are removed to "Out Game".
  • In the Italian format, G Assist works differently; you look at the top 7 cards of your deck, but reveal them one at a time until you find the required grade (at which point you stop searching.)
