Overview of New Keywords
NEWS
2022.03.27



Thank you for playing Gate Ruler!

Today, we would like to go through the new keyword mechanics that will be introduced in the upcoming Booster Set Vol. 4: Become the Hero.

 

 

■New Ability Keyword: 【Gear Up】

【Gear Up】 is an ability that allows you to place a unit card on top of your ruler, allowing the ruler to become one with the unit and charge right into the thick of battle!

 

The new 【Gear Up】 keyword ability is an ability on some units that can change your ruler in a number of ways. If a unit card has this ability, instead of summoning it normally, you can instead have your ruler (which represents you, the player) 【Gear Up】 into it. Not only can this improve your offensive capabilities by replacing your ruler’s stats with the unit’s, it also grants a layer of defense!

【Gear Up】 does not count as a normal summon, so it allows you to get around the pesky summon cap while increasing the number of unit cards in your deck. In addition, it costs no resources to use!

While 【Gear Up】 is obviously great for rulers with low stats, even rulers that have higher stats can benefit from the 【Gear Ability】 of a unit with 【Gear Up】. Just make sure that any units with 【Gear Up】 you add to your deck work well with whatever ruler you are using!

 



When a 【Gear Up】 ability is successfully resolved on a ruler, that ruler is treated as being 【Geared Up】. There are specific rules involving 【Geared Up】  unit cards and rulers, and some cards have abilities that are only activated or usable when your ruler is 【Geared Up】.
