If a reward-deck card is placed face down, who must place their card first, and can it be changed?

No official ruling; the designer gave only guidance and players differ.

There is no official ruling. The designer thinks the offense going first is a reasonable guide, but the different card backs are visible to everyone and players just deal with it. Some groups let players change their card after seeing the opponent's card back, while others consider the card locked in.
