Ignition Overboost (イグニッション・オーバーブースト Igunisshon Ōbābūsuto, also written as 誓装 or 契騎) or IGOB is a term given to the process of making a Z/X Overboost appear on Square, and is often also used to refer to the Z/X Overboost itself. In the story, it refers to the method of fusing a Z/X user and their partner Z/X as one.
Ignition Overboost can be performed through certain Event cards or card abilities. Event cards or abilities that are able to perform Ignition Overboost may specify the name of Z/X Overboost that can appear through the process, and the process cannot be performed at all if the player cannot Ignition Overboost into Z/X Overboost with the specified name.
Overview[]
The detailed process for Ignition Overboost is as follows:
- Turn the Player card face-down.
- Reveal the lower part of Z/X Overboost that was stacked behind the Player card.
- Reveal a face-down upper part of Z/X Overboost with the same name as the lower part from the Dynamis.
- Join both the upper and the lower part of the Z/X Overboost together as a single card.
- Make the Z/X Overboost appear on Square without any Z/X except the opponent's Player Square in Reboot State.
Unlike the regular process of playing a Z/X, Z/X Overboost must appear on a Square without Z/X, and always appear in Reboot State regardless of the state of the Player card prior to the process.
Since Ignition Overboost itself is a keyword action, all Z/X Overboost that appeared through this process are treated as appearing per game mechanic. While there is no limit on how many times Ignition Overboost can be performed during a turn, a player cannot perform Ignition Overboost while they still control a Z/X Overboost on Square. Card abilities or effects might also prevent a player from performing Ignition Overboost.
Ignition Overboost does not count toward the once-per-turn limit of playing a Z/X Extra or Event Extra, so a player can still play a Z/X Extra after they performed Ignition Overboost and vice-versa.
