Many of the rules stayed the same but there some minor clarifications to help better explain the interactions between cards. Two of the biggest changes were to Kaito Kosori and Yogo Kikuyo.
With Kaito, the developers wanted to make it clear that her ability only works when she is in the ready position. This was really just more a clarification than a re-working of her ability.
Yogo Kikuyo’s card had the phrase “from your hand” added to her card. This was due to a rules interaction that prevented the ability on cards in the out-of-play area to be used. Basically, this one just needed to make it clear that yes, it does Interrupt spells when you play this card from your hand.
