the first set of game content forms a deck used in the event which occurs in the game, and
the circuitry is configured to output display data for displaying a deck editing screen for prompting the first player to select the first set of game contents for forming the deck.
6. The computer according to claim 5 , wherein
the circuitry is configured to:
output display data for displaying a deck selection screen for prompting the first player to select the deck to be edited from a plurality of decks; and
when the deck is selected at the deck selection screen, output display data for displaying the deck editing screen corresponding to the selected deck.
7. The computer according to claim 1 , wherein the circuitry is configured to output display data for displaying the parameter value of each of the first set of game contents before the number of the second set of game contents is counted.
8. The computer according to claim 1 , wherein
the parameter value includes an attack power value,
the memory is configured to store, for each of the plurality of players, identification information of a respective player, a name of the respective player, and identification information of a plurality of game contents associated with the respective player, and to store, for each of the first set of game contents, identification information of a respective game content, a type of the respective game content, a modified attack power value of the respective game content, a rarity value of the respective game content, and a health point value of the respective game content, and
the circuitry is configured to extract the first set of game contents of the first player from the memory, extract the modified attack power values and the health point values of the extracted first set of game contents, and execute the progress of the game by using the extracted modified attack power value and extracted health point value of at least one of the extracted first set of game contents.
9. The computer according to claim 8 , wherein
the memory is configured to store identification information, a name, an attack power value, and a health point value of the other player, and
the circuitry is configured to execute the progress of the game by reducing the health point value of the other player based on the extracted modified attack power value of the at least one of the extracted first set of game contents, and by reducing the extracted health point value of the at least one of the extracted first set of game contents based on the attack power value of the other player.
10. The computer according to claim 1 , wherein the circuitry is configured to:
extract identification information of each of the first set of game contents of the first player and identification information of the game contents, other than the first set of game contents, from among the plurality of game contents associated with the first player,
extract a type of each of the first set of game contents based on the extracted identification information of each of the first set of game contents,
extract a type of each of the game contents other than the first set of game contents based on the extracted identification information of each of the game contents other than the first set of game contents,
count, for each of the first set of game contents, a number of the game contents whose extracted type matches each extracted type of the first set of game contents as the number of the second set of game contents, and
control the display to display, for each of the first set of game contents, an image indicating an increased parameter value of each of the first set of game contents based on the counted number of the second set of game contents.
11. The computer according to claim 2 , wherein the predetermined value is an upper limit value.
12. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium having recorded thereon a program for a computer including a memory configured to store a plurality of game contents associated with each of a plurality of players, each of the plurality of game contents being classified as a type of a plurality of types, the computer executing progress of a game by using a game content having a parameter value, the program causing the computer to execute a process, the process comprising:
receiving a selection of a first set of game contents by a first player from among a plurality of game contents associated with the first player;
determining whether or not the parameter value of each of the first set of game contents is modifiable based on a number of a second set of game contents whose type matches that of each of the first set of game contents, the second set of game contents being game contents of the plurality of game contents associated with the first player other than the first set of game contents;
