■Reasons for Card Changes
Upon examining the data for the top-ranking players in the most recent Rank Matches and RANKING SEASON:09, the following was determined.
[Decks with High Usage and Victory Rates]
・Nation of Forests Demete Tribal & Mask Deck
Usage: 24.6%, First-Turn Victory: 60.3%, Second-Turn Victory: 62.9%
[Decks with Low Usage and Victory Rates]
・Nation of Fire Aguma Jewelist Deck
Usage: 2.2%, First-Turn Victory: 32.8%, Second-Turn Victory: 35.9%
・Nation of Darkness Thanatos Vampire Deck
Usage: 3.4%, First-Turn Victory: 39.9%, Second-Turn Victory: 42.1%
After reviewing this information, it was decided that the above changes were necessary to balance out the game.
Nation of Forests Demete Tribal & Mask Deck users were observed to utilize the Tribal Class to increase mana quickly and summon Masked Ninja – Crash Form to break the opponent’s Force. While limiting their opponent’s movements, players would then summon Masked Ninja – Pleiades Form to win.
In order to delay this process, we have adjusted the Cost and BP/DP of Masked Ninja – Crash Form and Masked Ninja – Pleiades Form.
Removal Effects of cards found in the Nation of Fire Aguma Jewelist Deck have been made stronger, allowing for more effective and dynamic strategies. In addition, the Costs of minions in the Nation of Darkness Thanatos Vampire Deck have been decreased, allowing players to fill their fields with minions sooner.
■Regarding Spirits and Premium Chips when Breaking Cards
Changes will be made to the number of Spirits you receive when breaking the cards that have been affected by these card adjustments.
These changes will take place betweenNovember 13th after maintenance until December 14th. Afterward, the number of Spirits will return to normal.
| Change Period | November 13th, 2020 after maintenance – December 14th, 2020 1:59 UTC |
When Breaking Masked Ninja – Crash Form:
| Normal Card |
| Spirits x10 → Spirits x50 |
When Breaking Masked Ninja – Pleiades Form:
| Normal Card |
| Spirits x1000 → Spirits x3500 |
When Breaking Premium Cards, you will receive the Spirits mentioned above and Premium Chips x20.
