After defeating Odion for the first time, Pegasus no longer appears as an opponent in the American version of the game. This makes it impossible for the player to trade for his cards and get his Deck Recipe afterward, so players who wish to fully complete the game must do both of the above before defeating Odion, as trading with Pegasus is the only way the player can acquire "Imperial Order".
In the American version of the game, "Crush Card Virus" is instead named "Deck Destruction Virus" and it shares its written lore with that card. The card still resolves with the effect "Crush Card Virus" had at the time.
Due to following outdated rulings for both cards, using "Gravekeeper's Servant" alongside "Banisher of the Light" does not stop players from declaring attacks.
The AI never activates "Solomon's Lawbook" unless the player controls a card with an effect that applies during the Standby Phase, mistakenly believing "Solomon's Lawbook" skips both players' Standby Phases instead of only their own.
