*4.7.3. When a BakuCore is placed, at least one side of that BakuCore must touch and be parallel with a side with another BakuCore on the BakuCore Field. If multiple BakuCores are being placed at the same time, the player placing them does so one at a time, in any order they choose.
==Turn Structure (Section 5)==
===General===
*5.1.1. Each turn consists of the following four phases: Start Phase, Roll Phase, Brawl Phase, and End Phase. Each of these four phases are separated into additional steps.
*5.1.2. Following priority rules (see rule 1.14), each phase is taken simultaneously by both players.
*5.1.3. A phase can only end when both players have passed, in succession, with no cards or abilities remaining to be completed. Once a card or ability is completed, both players gain the opportunity to play additional cards and abilities during that phase.
*5.1.4. Between each phase of the turn, no additional events can take place. The same is true for between turns.
===Start Phase===
*5.2.1. The Start Phase consists of two steps: the Draw step and the Energize step. During this phase, players cannot play cards or use abilities.
*5.2.2. The starting player is determined during the start phase.
===Draw Phase===
*5.3.1. The first thing that happens in the Start Phase is each player simultaneously draws a card from their deck and puts it into their hand.
===Energize Step===
*5.4.1. Starting with the starting player, both players are given the opportunity to Energize a card from their hand.
*5.4.2. Once a player makes a decision to Energize a card or not, they will not get another opportunity to Energize a card during this step.
===Roll Phase===
*5.5.1. The Roll Phase consists of two steps: the Selection Step and the Roll Step.
===Selection Step===
*5.6.1. Starting with the Starting player, each player chooses an unopened Bakugan to roll and places it in front of them.
*5.6.2. Players may play cards after selection and before the Roll Step.
===Rolling Step===
*5.7.1. Prior to rolling the selected Bakugan, each player simultaneously says “Bakugan Brawl!” (or another agreed upon way to release simultaneously) and rolls their Bakugan towards the BakuCore Field.
**5.7.1.1. Bakugan can either be rolled end over end, slid or spun forward.
**5.7.1.2. Bakugan must be released within two vertical card lengths from the edge of the table closest to the player rolling it.
**5.7.1.3. Bakugan cannot be bounced or dropped onto or into the play area; it must stay on the play area surface.
**5.7.1.4. Bakugan must come into contact with a BakuCore in order for an open to count.
***5.7.1.4.1. Contact with only the table, another Bakugan, card or other non-BakuCore element of the playing area counts as a non-open.
*5.7.2. Each player that opens a rolled Bakugan reveals the corresponding face down Bakugan Character card and moves to the Brawl Phase.
**5.7.2.1. If neither Bakugan opened, start over from the beginning of the Roll Step.
**5.7.2.2. If both Bakugan opened and are attached to the same BakuCore, both Characters get the BakuCore bonus.
**5.7.2.3. If a Bakugan opens from contact with a BakuCore but does not stay attached to the BakuCore, the Bakugan is considered open but doesn’t receive the bonus from the BakuCore.
