Since they’re split by suit, you can choose which card types to stay the same and which to swap out. In short, if you love one game but don’t have an opinion on the others, you can have one or two enabled and keep the rest off.

Unlike decks you unlock through winning runs, using crossover ones won’t impact your interest, hands, or discards in any way. They’re purely cosmetic, and you can think of them like skins for your decks. You can also use them on any deck type, so you’re not limited to using specific ones to see the cards.
