Excite

Excite (励起; reiki) is a keyword introduced in BS64, possessed only by White "Silver Zero" family cards which work with the "Zero Contract" family. The effect is worded as follows:
* (Can't Stack: ) When the opposing Life is reduced by your "Zero Contract" family Spirit, if you have X counters or more, you can return this card from your Trash to the Hand.
Being a card-digging deck, the "Zero Contract" family has a lot of effects which reveal cards from the top of the deck and discard them, which may cause a lot of useful cards to be lost in the process. Despite being a White deck, the play style of the deck is also taking into some traits of the Blue color, as seen by the effect of The AstralZeroSword Foranswer (the card itself is half-Blue as well), further reinforcing the idea of filtering which is normally unique to the Blue color. As such, the keyword proves to be a useful mechanic to replenish the hand with the discarded cards.
Unlike most of the other keywords, the interchangeable part of (represented by "X" in the example above) isn't separated from the keyword name itself with a colon, meaning that the "X" is integrated into the keyword's name. As such, with different numbers are treated as different effects. For example, is treated as a different effect to .
Excite also has a derivative keyword called Ultra Excite.
