Method and device for providing allotted game items from decks having rare items

1. A server device for providing via a network a game to be played using game items to a plurality of terminals, individual ones of the terminals being operated by a user and allocated one or more decks of the game items, the server device comprising:

a storage storing information about a finite number of game items included respectively in a first deck and a second deck allocated to a user, wherein the first deck includes a first rare item having a rarity value equal to or higher than a predetermined value, and the second deck includes a second rare item having a rarity value equal to or higher than the predetermined value; and

one or more processors executing prescribed computer readable instructions to:

in response to an acquisition request from the user, select a first allotted count of game items as first allotted game items from among game items in the first deck;

remove the game items selected as the first allotted game items from the first deck;

in response to the acquisition request from the user, select a second allotted count of game items as second allotted game items from among game items in the second deck;

remove the game items selected as the second allotted game items from the second deck; and

impart the first and second allotted game items to the user.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors are configured to determine whether the acquisition request is a first acquisition request for obtaining a game item in the first deck or a second acquisition request for obtaining a game item in the second deck,

wherein when the acquisition request is the first acquisition request, the first allotted count is larger than the second allotted count.

3. The system of claim 2 , wherein when the acquisition request is the second acquisition request, the first allotted count is smaller than the second allotted count.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors execute prescribed computer readable instructions to present, to the user, information indicating a total number of game items included in the first deck in an initial state, information indicating a remaining number of the first rare item, information indicating a total number of game items included in the second deck in an initial state, and information indicating a remaining number of the second rare item.

5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors execute prescribed computer readable instructions to generate another game item based on the first rare item obtained from the first deck and the second rare item obtained from the second deck.

6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors are configured to determine whether the acquisition request is a first acquisition request for obtaining a game item in the first deck or a second acquisition request for obtaining a game item in the second deck,

when the acquisition request is the first acquisition request, the second allotted game items are selected such that they do not include the second rare item, and when the acquisition request is the second acquisition request, the first allotted game items are selected such that they do not include the first rare item.

7. A method implemented by executing prescribed computer readable instructions by one or more processors, comprising:

storing, by one or more processors, information about a finite number of game items included respectively in a first deck and a second deck allocated to a user, wherein the first deck includes a first rare item having a rarity value equal to or higher than a predetermined value, and the second deck includes a second rare item having a rarity value equal to or higher than the predetermined value;

in response to an acquisition request from the user, selecting, by one or more processors, a first allotted count of game items as first allotted game items from among game items in the first deck;

removing, by one or more processors, the game items selected as the first allotted game items from the first deck;

in response to the acquisition request from the user, selecting, by one or more processors, a second allotted count of game items as second allotted game items from among game items in the second deck;

removing, by one or more processors, the game items selected as the second allotted game items from the second deck; and

imparting, by one or more processors, the first and second allotted game items to the user.

8. A storage medium storing a program causing one or more computer processors to function as:

a unit configured to store information about a finite number of game items included respectively in a first deck and a second deck allocated to a user, wherein the first deck includes a first rare item having a rarity value equal to or higher than a predetermined value, and the second deck includes a second rare item having a rarity value equal to or higher than the predetermined value; and

a unit configured to select a first allotted count of game items as first allotted game items from among game items in the first deck in response to an acquisition request from the user;

a unit configured to remove the game items selected as the first allotted game items from the first deck;

a unit configured to select a second allotted count of game items as second allotted game items from among game items in the second deck in response to the acquisition request from the user;

a unit configured to remove the game items selected as the second allotted game items from the second deck; and

a unit configured to impart the first and second allotted game items to the user.
