Love and Deepspace Guide: Card Set Building, Mixed Banner Odds and Wish Planning
Love and Deepspace Current Version and Build Basics
Content after 6.0 is mostly reruns and system work, so learn the framing before deciding where to pull.
Version rhythm
Version 6.0 "Wan Lai Ju Qi" went live on July 9, 2026. That update added rerun banners, home mode content and system optimisations.
Star charts: why sets cannot be mixed
Each love interest has a dedicated star chart and card pool, and sets from different leads cannot be combined, which means growth resources must be planned per character. This is why the most common beginner mistake is levelling three leads at once and clearing nothing.
Status of the sixth lead
On June 22, 2026 the studio announced Ao Yin as the sixth romanceable lead, originally scheduled to debut with 6.0 on July 9. After the backlash, the studio issued a public letter on June 28 with compensation of 10 Deepspace Wish tickets and 10 Extreme Space Wish tickets, then cancelled the new lead's update and development and committed to no further new leads . Practical takeaway: do not reserve resources for a new lead, and concentrate spending on the existing five.
Love and Deepspace Card Set Priorities
Pick a lead and commit
Determine your main lead first, push that lead's 5-star cards to the level your current stages require, then expand to a second lead. Stages and dungeons reward per-lead star chart strength, so concentrated investment advances the main story and dungeons faster.
Where ascension materials come from
Growth consumes ascension materials and gold. Sources include daily dungeons, event rewards and material boxes, with event boxes being the most commonly forgotten free resource . Farm inside double-drop windows, which usually appear as recurring periods such as the Bounty Hunting Season.
Daily power-up route
- Daily tasks and check-ins, a steady source of diamonds and materials that you cannot skip.
- Dungeon farming aimed at your current bottleneck rather than scattershot runs.
- Card levelling and ascension, pushing 5-star main cards before chasing rarity upgrades.
- Affinity growth through interaction content, which pays off over months rather than days.
Love and Deepspace Wish Mechanics and Diamond Planning
Rate-up banners versus mixed banners
The rate-up banner has a 50 percent 5-star rate. A mixed banner lets you choose three limited 5-star cards from different leads, and per the official second-anniversary wording the chosen cards' boosted odds account for 75 percent of the 5-star rate. If you only care about one specific card, the mixed banner has the better target hit rate.
Building diamonds
- Check-ins and the monthly card are the baseline accrual for long-term players.
- Version events and achievements are one-off lump sums, so clear them all.
- Compensation and top-up gifts arrive as wish tickets, for example 10 Deepspace Wish tickets and 10 Extreme Space Wish tickets in the June compensation.
Pairing double-drop and rebate events
Double-drop and growth rebate events are the material windows, usually opening right after a version update or mid-patch . Farm materials in those windows and save diamonds for banners so the two budgets do not compete.
Love and Deepspace Home Mode and Daily Value
What home mode gives
Home mode launched with the 5.0 second-anniversary version, giving players a detached house to share with their lead. Later updates added the kitchen area, the real-scene photo feature, plus mahjong, claw machines and sticker photo booths. The value is steady daily income plus affinity, which is a long play rather than a quick one.
Time-limited priority order
When time is short: daily tasks, then material dungeons, then home and interaction content, then story progression. Story and affinity are long-term investments and do not need to be rushed.
Love and Deepspace Resource Plan for the Second Half of 2026
| Priority | Target | Reasoning |
|---|---|---|
| High | 5-star cards for your main lead | Direct route to clearing stages and raising power |
| High | Mixed banners with three selectable cards | Better hit rate, 75 percent of the 5-star rate |
| Medium | A second lead's card set | Needed once story and dungeons demand multiple leads |
| Low | Anything reserved for a new lead | The studio cancelled the new lead's development |
What not to do
- Spread growth across three to five leads and fall short on all of them.
- Farm materials heavily outside double-drop or rebate windows.
- Ignore wish tickets from events and compensation and let them expire.
- Pull on card art alone without checking star chart compatibility with your main lead.
