One of the standout cards from the latest English release, OP-09: Emperors in the New World, has undergone a remarkable change that caught the attention of players and collectors alike. The card in question, the Event card Special Muggy Ball, has received a significant update to its effect since the set’s release.

The Special Muggy Ball card has seen a notable adjustment to its effect, fundamentally changing how it operates in gameplay. Following the update, the card now allows your opponent to select one of their Characters with a cost of 6 or less and return it to their hand. This subtle yet impactful change shifts the card’s dynamic, granting your opponent more control over the outcome of its effect.

Previously, the card gave you, as the player, the ability to choose one of your opponent’s Characters with a cost of 6 or less and return it to their hand. This provided a direct way to disrupt your opponent’s board state by targeting key cards. However, the new version reduces its offensive flexibility, as your opponent now has the power to decide which of their Characters is removed.

While this adjustment might seem like a drawback at first glance, it introduces an interesting layer of strategy. Players must now consider the timing and potential outcomes of using Special Muggy Ball, as its effect may allow opponents to recycle cards they find beneficial while still removing a threat from play.
