While the randomness of the decks may be off-putting, realize that ''you'' are the dealer, and can stack the deck in your favor. Nemelex's abilities, including the 5* ability literally called Stack Five, can all control outcomes, and even when using cards manually, you can decide which deck to pull and when to pull it.

	Nemelex's cards can harm their user, so be cautious before using them (especially in the early game, where there's few options if, say, a hostile summon spawns).

	Decks have some amount of danger, but not a lot. Escape has the [[Tomb card]], which can block every tile around you ''except'' the one where monsters are. Destruction has the [[Degeneration card]], which, while usually creating weaker monsters, will heal them. It can also create nasty low-HD monsters like [[floating eye]]s. Summoning has the [[Pentagram card]], which has a small chance to summon hostile demons. Most other cards are entirely safe.		Decks have some amount of danger, but not a lot.
