These are the following official rule changes to the game that will be in effect now. Please do remember these rules!

Mulligan: Place any number of cards from your hand on the bottom of your Deck, draw an equal number of cards, then shuffle your Deck.
G Assist: The requirement for 2 or more cards in your G Zone and removing from the game those 2 cards has been erased. The Turn Fighter looks at the top 5 cards of their Deck, chooses up to 1 card that’s Grade is 1 higher tha your Vanguard, show it to your opponent, add it to your hand, and if you add it to your hand, choose to 2 cards from your hand and place them outside of the game.
Guardian: There is now no requirement that cards placed on your Guardian Circle have to have their Grade match or be less than your Vanguard
Stride Requirement: Normal Stride can be performed on the following terms:
• When both players have a Grade 3 or higher Vanguard
• When the Turn Fighter’s Vanguard is 3 or higher at the start of the turn.
1/Turn: If this symbol is immediately after an AUTO or ACT symbol, if the game state changes after resolving the effects, you will be unable to use this ability.
Turn Order: Loser of the previous match may decide who goes first - without coin flipping! (This was implemented a while back but people STILL KEEP FORGETTING THIS!)
