In trading card games, new cards are added to the pool every once in a while, and some old cards are removed from the pool. These old cards can no longer be used, which is the retirement environment. Compared with many trading card games, one of the characteristics of the game king is that there is no retreat environment, so the card pool of the game king has expanded to more than 10,000 pieces now.
However, for the balance of the competitive environment, although the game king does not retreat from the environment on a large scale, it will be banned for some cards that particularly destroy the game experience, which is what we often call the forbidden card table. The ban card table is revised four times a year, on January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1 of each year.
The reviser is Konami Co., Ltd., which holds the copyright of the game's ace card, which is what we often call K Society. K Society collects and organizes data such as the use of competitive cards and the winning rate of decks in the Game King competition held in the card guys, and then analyzes which cards destroy the competitive balance in it, as the basis for the formulation of the "Forbidden Card Table".
The ban of Game King is divided into 3 grades. The lightest tier 1 is "Quasi-Limit", and only 2 cards can be placed in the quasi-restricted deck. The second gear is "Restrictions", which limits only 1 card in a deck. The most serious is the "ban", which prohibits the use of cards in competitions, which is what we often call the little black room.
In addition to the ban, in response to the current environment, the K Society will also move the cards that were originally "banned" out of the small black room in the next environment. Because it is possible that with the addition of new cards, this originally unsolvable card can now be suppressed, so it is released after completing the sentence. This is also the support of the game king's statement that there is no retreat environment, because for other card games, the cards that retreat from the environment will not appear in the new environment, but the game king's "forbidden card table" bans the cards temporarily.
For example, the once banned "Black Magician of Chaos" was indeed a very bug in the ancient times, but in the environment of new era homology and chaotic connection, this once powerful card has become less powerful, so it has gradually been released from the small black room. However, as a "dimensional fusion" that summons infinite LOOP except for the "Chaos Magician", because it will definitely be more comfortable if it is released in the new environment, it is probably the life of the bottom of the prison.
However, in the history of the Game King, there are some special cards, such as "Chaos Dragon", "Rebirth of the Present and Underworld", "Level Thief", etc. After being set as a forbidden card to be locked in the small black room, K Society will make a compromise plan considering their super popularity among the card guys. That is, the card effect is "sourced", and the card effect is re-edited until it does not affect the competitive balance so much that it will be released. K Society can also take the opportunity to sell the old card as a new card again, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
One of the more interesting cards is the "Level Thief", this card is the only talent who has experienced the "forbidden", the card effect has been "adjusted" to modify the card effect and released out of the small black room, and then because even if the effect is adjusted, it is still extremely strong and is "forbidden" again, and the name is worthy of the name of the second entrance to the palace.
