Banned/Restricted Cards effective from May 1, 2026
As part of our commitment to maintaining a balanced competitive environment, we are adding to the Banned/Restricted Card List, effective May 1, 2026.
Regarding the Policy of Banned/Restricted Card Revision
We, the Development Team of ONE PIECE CARD GAME, consider as the main policy for game designing that the players and fans can enjoy numerous decks built around the leader card.
Throughout the year, we continuously monitor the game environment to ensure strategic diversity is maintained, always considering whether revisions to the Banned/Restricted Card List are necessary.
We contemplate implementing Banned/Restricted Card considering multiple aspects of certain decks such as the winning rate, the results of several competitions, the usage rate (how much the deck has been used in one competition), the comprehensive influence to the future of the game environment, and if a certain deck will inhibit the play of various Leaders.
For that reason, we also consider removing certain cards from the Banned/Restricted Card List considering changes to the game environment, and if we can ensure the players and fans will be able to fully enjoy the game once again.
Typically, we plan to announce revisions to the list once after the conclusion of Championship Season 1 in Japan, and once after the World Championship.
However, if we estimate that a certain card is going to prevent us from providing an enjoyable environment, we will add Banned/Restricted Card without waiting for the end of a Championship season.
Regarding Banned/Restricted Cards
Effective from May 1, 2026
Banned Pair Cards
Card A and Card B cannot be included in the same deck.
Card A
OP07-115 I Re-Quasar Helllp!!
Card B
EB04-058 Borsalino
*Parallel cards (Alt-Art cards) included
- ＋
This card combination has been used in a wider variety of decks, particularly those including Yellow, than we initially anticipated.
As a result, we have observed that game times have become significantly longer than expected, which deviates from the gameplay experience we aim to provide.
Therefore, we have decided to designate this combination as a banned pair.
To maintain an enjoyable game experience with a huge diversity of decks for all the players and fans, we continue to monitor the game environment, and implement revisions if necessary.
In the meantime, we hope you continue to enjoy playing the ONE PIECE CARD GAME.
