In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “Nouvelle règle!” is a common card of the Memes FR pack, number 1223 of the collection, and the 753rd best-known meme of its 3507 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.
What does the “Nouvelle règle!” meme mean?
The phrase signals that a rule has just been invented on the spot, usually in the speaker’s favour. The deadpan seriousness is the joke: an arbitrary constraint appears out of nowhere with no room for debate. In daily life it pops up in board games, video game sessions, at work or at family tables to call out or twist an unjustified decision with humour. It also nods to the Palmashow’s sketch comedy, whose lines became a shared language for a whole generation.
Where does the “Nouvelle règle!” meme come from?
The Palmashow is a comedy duo formed in 2002 by Grégoire Ludig and David Marsais, who met at school. After stage shows and online parodies, they moved to television with La Folle Histoire du Palmashow in late 2010, then Very Bad Blagues from 21 March 2011 on Direct 8. Viewers link the line “attention, nouvelle règle !” to the sketch Ko Lantah, taken from La Folle Soirée du Palmashow 2, aired on 14 May 2015 on D8. Fans isolated the passage and reposted it under that title. The phrase has since become a classic, quoted whenever someone springs an improvised rule.

The reprint of the “Nouvelle règle!” card
The “Nouvelle règle!” card was reprinted as Rare (No. 2,630). A reprint is the same meme printed again, with a number of its own and a higher rarity than its first printing, which was common. Its face reads “Reprinted card · Higher rarity”.
Every printing is dealt in the packs of the Memes FR pack, each at its own rarity: the higher it is, the rarer the card is to pull. Copies of the first printing already pulled stay as they are, and any printing counts toward completing a set.
MyMemeCards reprints a meme when it deserves more than the rarity of its first printing, such as a classic that became iconic after it came out: the reprint gives it a place among the most sought-after cards without taking anything from the players who already had it.
