This game is convoluted as hell. If you're unfamiliar with it, the gist is cards attack each other with the arrows and compare stats on a roll. The game literally refuses to tell you all of the rules beyond that, and there's no chance at all you could work out what the stats mean without a guide. 0P00 is the worst rating a card can possibly have, essentially saying it has 0 power, 0 defenses and is a regular attack.

We know all the stupid little rules, use far better cards and still can't win 75% of the games without straight save-scumming because the AI decides they're going to win unbelievably unlikely rolls whenever they feel like it. I once gamesharked perfect stats on all of my cards and still lost on occasion because the AI would choose to win. Factor in now that you lose cards when you fail and some cards are irreplaceable. What a mini-game.
