You are the Vanguard of your army and your opponent is the Vanguard of his army. You can gain more powers by summoning rearguards to assist you or by taking the form of units. Your goal is to deal six damages to your opponents before they deal damage to you. This way, you can banish their spirits from Planet Cray. It should be noted that every card is a unit with statistics. Actually, you can call these statistics and attack. This feature makes Cardfight Vanguard different than other trading card games.
