We sincerely thank every battlers for the support of [Battle Spirits]

During [Battle Spirits Championship 2024 Battle of Revenge] held in Japan on 18th January 2025, as the rules for repetitive action (commonly known as [looping]) is not clear, it resulted in inconvenience to many participants. We sincerely apologize.
We feel that [looping] is to help players attain victory. However, as there is a time limit in the championship, it could be a tactic to stall the game by taking away the opponent’s time. As such, to achieve a smooth operation for championship, we are editing the championship rules. Under the opponent’s consent, some steps could be cut from the action of the loop.
However, we would need some time to carefully consider the change to championship rules. We will inform everyone at a later time.

At the same time of 『Battle Spirits』 having a possibility of attaining victory through a loop, we also noticed the high conversion rate for [The Gekiha Contractor, Dan]. In consideration for the current conversion rate where there is time constraint and loop cannot be skipped, we predict the conversion rate becoming higher after the change of rules to allow the skipping of loop.

As such, apart from allowing the skip of loop, in consideration of conversion rate during an event, we will additionally ban the following cards from 1st February 2025.

Banned Card

• BS02-085 The Topaz Meteor
• BS03-030 The BeastMaster Rainer Bros
• BS48-X06 The GrandseaPiratePrince Triton

Under normal circumstances, banned list and change of rules would be announced together, but in consideration for [Battle Spirits Championship 2024 Japan Final] on 15th February, we decided to only ban cards in lights of the looping. We seek your understanding.

Please continue to support [Battle Spirits], we sincerely thank everyone for their support.
