What does rank base itself on in episode 3? Does how many cards you draw and moves you take to kill your enemy affect your rank?

Yes, those things do affect rank. Here's the actual breakdown of everything that affects rank:

35 + ( Attack Damage - Damage Taken ) + ( Max Card Combo x 3 ) - ( Story Character Damage x 1.8 ) - ( Turns x 2.7 ) + ( Action Card Negated Damage x 0.8 )

The resultant score will give you a rank based on this chart:

0-14 = E
15-24 = D
25-29 = D+
30-39 = C
40-49 = C+
50-59 = B
60-64 = B+
65-74 = A
75-84 = A+
85+ = S

This is the main reason why it's good to use guard cards. They basically block 99 damage giving you 99 x 0.8 points. That's a great start.

Yeah, I was able to get S-Rank using this outline. I've been playing a lot of Harvest Moon lately though, so I haven't picked up Episode 3 in a while.
