New Changes FAQs

Q&A Regarding Battling First and Battling Second
Q. Does the rule change for Battling First and Battling Second also apply to Premium-Standard and V-Standard?
A. Yes. Applies to all regulations from 19th January 2024 onwards.

Q. It says that the playing first and second are decided with random method, but is it okay to use a method other than rock-paper-scissors, for example, using dice?
A. Yes. As long as there is a mutual understanding, there is no problem. However, if we cannot reach an agreement, the decision will be made by the judge on the day. In that case, there is a high probability that it will just be rock-paper-scissors.

Q&A Regarding Deck’s Size / Deck Construction
Q.
 Does Griphogila's main deck contain 15 trigger units and 35 normal units and orders?
A. Yes. Construction conditions such as up to 4 copies with the same name and requiring 16 triggers apply to the main deck and ride deck.

Q. Is it possible to add a ride deck crest to the 4 cards allowed by the new ride deck rule, in addition to the 50 cards in the main deck?
A. Yes, can. The number of cards in the main deck is 50 cards no matter what, but the number of cards in the ride deck changes depending on the conditions, so please construct the number according to the conditions.

Q. Is the card quantity limit in the main deck & ride deck counted separately? For example, can I put four copies of a card that is used in the ride deck into the main deck?
A. No, the card quantity is totalled from both the main deck and ride deck. You can have a maximum of four or less copies of a card in total of the main deck and ride deck. You can only have a total of sixteen trigger cards in the main deck and ride deck.

Q. For decks with "Griphosid", what happens to the number of cards in the main deck and ride deck?
A. Aside from the fifty card main deck, your ride deck can have one of each type of cards with specified requirements. For example, if your deck has "Griphosid", your main deck will have fifty cards, and your ride deck have three Calamity cards, one over trigger, "Griphosid", and one ride deck crest, making it a total of six cards.

Q&A Regarding Some Specific Decks
Q. Can I put the Ride Deck Crest in a deck such as Luard?
