Below, we’ll cover which cards are Forbidden, Limited, and Semi-Limited in Yu-Gi-Oh Master Duel, so that you know which cards you can use when constructing a meta deck.
Yu-Gi-Oh Master Duel forbidden and limited cards list
Restricted cards are split into three categories in Yu-Gi-Oh Master Duel: Forbidden, Limited, and Semi-Limited. As mentioned above, Forbidden cards are completely banned. Limited and Semi-Limited cards are legal, but have slight restrictions. If a card is Limited, you can only use one copy of that card in your deck. With Semi-Limited cards, you can use two copies. These restrictions apply to the Standard format. Standard format is a regulation that covers which cards you can legally use in competitive matches, such as Ranked duels. This list applies across all platforms, including PC, Xbox, PlayStation, Nintendo Switch, and the Yu-Gi-Oh Master Duel mobile version that’s set to launch later this year.
