Floor rules, enforced
The Bushiroad TCG Floor Rules PDF governs conduct, penalties and judge procedure at competitive events; at world level it is applied to the letter.
Deck checks
Your physical deck must match your registered Deck Log list exactly. Sleeve condition is checked alongside card counts.
Long days
Multi-round Swiss plus a cut means a full day of play. Food, water and a phone battery pack are practical necessities, not luxuries.
Side events
Bushiroad festivals pair main events with demo sessions and side events — Bushiroad Summer Fest 2026 ran across 20 locations in three regions.
Errata still apply
Any published errata amend the card's text for the event, regardless of what is printed on your copy.
Basic rules, comprehensive rules, floor rules and errata.
