TCG ban list (which is separate from Master Duel's ban list) is broken down into three specific parts, with a fourth being included at the end of every update simply to show which cards are no longer having their usage limited.\u00a0 Forbidden: A card is not allowed to be used in a player's Main Deck, Extra Deck, or Side Deck. Limited: Only one copy of a card is allowed to be used in a player's Main Deck, Extra Deck, or Side Deck. Semi-Limited: Only two copies of a card are allowed to be used in a player's Main Deck, Extra Deck, or Side Deck. Konami typically spaces out its ban list updates by about three months, giving players time to implement new product releases into their strategies and create new decks, while also allowing the company to gather more data and make informed decisions about which cards to hit next.\u00a0 Here's the current Forbidden and Limited card list, which was put into effect on Sept. 2, 2024. All of these listings are based on the Advanced Format, which is the official format used for Regional, National, and World Championship events.\u00a0 Full Yu-Gi-Oh!

TCG ban list (which is separate from Master Duel's ban list) is broken down into three specific parts, with a fourth being included at the end of every update simply to show which cards are no longer having their usage limited.\u00a0 Forbidden: A card is not allowed to be used in a player's Main Deck, Extra Deck, or Side Deck. Limited: Only one copy of a card is allowed to be used in a player's Main Deck, Extra Deck, or Side Deck. Semi-Limited: Only two copies of a card are allowed to be used in a player's Main Deck, Extra Deck, or Side Deck. Konami typically spaces out its ban list updates by about three months, giving players time to implement new product releases into their strategies and create new decks, while also allowing the company to gather more data and make informed decisions about which cards to hit next.\u00a0 Here's the current Forbidden and Limited card list, which was put into effect on Sept. 2, 2024. All of these listings are based on the Advanced Format, which is the official format used for Regional, National, and World Championship events.\u00a0 Full Yu-Gi-Oh!
