New cards
The Set 13 news feature says the God Rare (GDR) lineup focuses on characters from the climax of the Universe Survival Saga. There are two kinds of Pick-Up Rare (PUR): five new landscape-format SPECIAL LIMITED cards, and five cards carrying the new Buchinuki Strike action skill. Individual card names and numbers were not listed in the feature, so this page does not guess them.
The Buchinuki system
According to the Set 13 new-features page, the 2nd area becomes a Buchinuki chance area in round one. Win the Strike Battle there and the attackers in that area get their ki fully restored. You also gain one extra ki orb, raising the maximum from four to five. Bandai describes the area as one that can swing a whole battle.
New action skills
- Buchinuki Strike: slabs of bedrock appear mid-battle, and you mash the button to smash through as many as possible. The attack ignores guard and deals heavy damage.
- Shin Kakusei (true awakening): you rub the card to raise the energy of two fusing fighters, who awaken as Vegito.
Avatar changes
A new avatar skill memory, God of Destruction memory, focuses growth on power and guard. To mark its arrival, Bandai lets you try up to three free skill tree resets.
Second-anniversary campaigns
Four campaigns are tied to special Anniversary God Rare cards. One gives an Anniversary GDR Goku (card SDVA2-001, Ultra Instinct Sign, with Buchinuki Strike) at the end of your first Set 13 play from November 21 to December 18, while stocks last. A Diver Passport or other Amusement IC card is required, and the free trial passport does not qualify. A prize-draw campaign runs for the whole set, and separate campaigns feature Vegeta and Frieza. From November 21, participating stores hand out a starter pack and a Set 12 GDR Gohan to elementary and junior-high students who complete an online survey, one set per person.
