With effect from August 9, 2024, Weiß Schwarz English Edition will be updating the restriction list to maintain a healthy tournament environment. The following restrictions will apply for all official tournaments:
Avatar: The Last Airbender
Restricted (Cannot be used in any deck)
Intern-kun note: While Avatar: The Last Airbender has maintained a healthy X-2 and conversion rate, the unpredictability that Sokka: Offering Different Perspectives provides has contributed to an increasingly unhealthy environment. Sokka may have been offering players with one too many perspectives, allowing them additional attacks at all stages of the game for minimal cost.
The restriction aims to reduce the unpredictability of playing against Avatar: The Last Airbender, allowing for more skill expression in the game.
Chainsaw Man
Limited (Up to 2 copies)
Choice Restrictions (Choose 1 of 2)
Intern-kun note: Chainsaw Man has been on a rampage, with over 50% of players achieving X-2 and a conversion rate of over 20%.
Forming an Alliance, Himeno and Break Time, Himeno form the core of the Easy Revenge! engine, allowing players to generate a resource advantage while building towards the eventuality of Public Safety Devil Extermination Special Division 4, Aki Hayakawa. In tandem, the package has offered players with a little too much consistency and efficiency.
While the statistics may be slightly skewed due to Bushiroad Spring Fest 2024 being a team tournament, we will be taking pre-emptive action to prevent any further bloodshed in the upcoming Bushiroad Championship Series 24/25 season.
We will continue to monitor the situation for the upcoming circuits and take action as necessary.
hololive production
Limited (Up to 2 copies)
Choice Restrictions (Choose 1 of 2)
Intern-kun note: The shark-infested waters have made trips to the beach a dangerous affair, with over 40% of players boasting X-2 and maintaining and a conversion rate of nearly 20%.
A Step Towards the Future, Gawr Gura is a potent finisher that can steal wins from as early as level 2. In addition, both Relaxing by the Pool, Ookami Mio and Himemori Luna have proven to be strong utility pieces that greatly improve their respective deck’s consistency.
Others
Intern-kun note: We think it’s time for Tohka to don her school uniform, so we’re cautiously removing School Uniform, Tohka from the choice restriction on Date A Live. We don’t expect the deck to surge in popularity, but if it does…
