Trueman plays an Archetype Deck, based around using the effect of "Dark Archetype" to Summon a variety of powerful monsters. Because he can manifest himself through any bunch of cards, for the most part, his Deck varies. As part of his darkness theme, most of his key monsters are of the DARK Attribute. Trueman's Deck also evolves each time he loses a Duel, as he has an improved Deck in the next Duel. He has displayed the ability to copy any Duelist's appearance and Deck, as long as the memory of the Deck exists. After his third loss to Jaden, he defeats Taigo Sorano and uses both his Deck and appearance to blend in with the rest of Duel Academy. He uses Sorano's Deck to defeat much of the student body, including Syrus Truesdale and Tyranno Hassleberry. With most of the students pulled into the World of Darkness, he reverts to his own Deck and defeats the remainder of the students, including Chazz Princeton and Alexis Rhodes. This leaves only Jaden Yuki and Jesse Anderson unaffected. Although he also copied both Axel's and Jaden's Deck, as taking their appearance, he didn't use them since Jaden succeeded to escape from him.

Trueman uses this Deck for normal Duels.

Trueman only uses this Deck when battling the Season 4 variant of Jaden Yuki.

In the third event in Bastion Misawa's story, Trueman uses a "Dark World" Deck.

If you Duel Trueman while having banned cards in your Deck, he will use a different Dark World Deck.
