How do you know that they are bad rules? The game could be opening additional ports for receiving other traffic. How fast is your Internet connection? Maybe it can't handle all of the traffic required to play the game smoothly?

Firstly, thank you so much for your answer.
However, I still have questions after reading your answer.

Can I consider post forwarding rules as "fixed UPnP rules"?
If yes, then I think I shall close UPnP and own a everlasting UDP 9306 port.

Can you provide examples of bad UPnP rules?
UPnP is convenient because it's automatic but if it's not working for you, then turn it off and go with port forwarding.
