English One Piece Card Game: Typos Corrected, Effects Altered

The English version of the One Piece Card Game has recently seen significant adjustments to some of its cards. These changes include a typo correction for the Vegapunk card from the 500 Years in the Future [OP-07] set and a crucial effect alteration for the Special Muggy Ball card from Emperors in the New World [OP-09], impacting gameplay and collector value.

Key Takeaways

• The Vegapunk (OP07-097) card received a typo correction on its standard version, with no impact on gameplay.

• The Special Muggy Ball card's effect was changed, shifting control of its outcome to the opponent.

• The typo-ridden Vegapunk card may become a collector's item due to its limited print run.

Vegapunk Card Typo Correction

Bandai has issued an updated version of the English Vegapunk card (OP07-097) from the 500 Years in the Future [OP-07] set to rectify a typo. This correction applies only to the standard version of the card, as the Parallel Art version was unaffected. Importantly, the typo was purely cosmetic and did not alter the card's gameplay mechanics or effects. The corrected version is now being distributed in booster packs and boxes.

This marks the second instance of an English One Piece card receiving an edit, following the Special Muggy Ball card's effect change in December 2024. Collectors should note that the initial version of the Vegapunk card with the typo will be phased out, potentially leading to a future increase in its market value as a rare variant.

Special Muggy Ball Effect Change

The Special Muggy Ball event card from the Emperors in the New World [OP-09] set has undergone a significant functional change. Initially, the card allowed the player to choose one of their opponent's Characters with a cost of 6 or less and return it to their hand. This provided a direct and offensive way to disrupt an opponent's board state.

However, the updated effect fundamentally alters its dynamic. The card now states that the opponent selects one of their Characters with a cost of 6 or less to return to their hand. This shift grants the opponent more control over the outcome, reducing the card's offensive flexibility for the player. While seemingly a drawback, this change introduces a new layer of strategic consideration, as players must now carefully time its use, understanding that the opponent might choose to recycle a beneficial card while still removing a threat from play.
