YuGiOh Master Duel Banlist

The YuGiOh Master Duel banlist functions as a way of stopping the most overpowered cards and card combinations from being employed and ruining games, but it looks a little different to the banlist used for the physical TCG. If you're looking to jump into YuGiOh Master Duel, you may want to learn the banlist, especially if you're a longtime player of the physical version. So read on for the full YuGiOh Master Duel banlist. 

• We also have a list of the YuGiOh Master Duel secret packs.

YuGiOh Master Duel Banlist: What Is It?

Considering the huge amount of cards that have been added to YuGiOh over the years, it's natural that some are a little broken and overpowered. This has led to an official banlist to prohibit certain cards and deck combinations from ruining competitions. The YuGiOh Master Duel banlist looks a little different from the physical one though, and this has meant some long-banned cards are back in the rotation. 

Currently, these cards are split into the categories of forbidden, limited, and semi-limited. A forbidden card is not allowed to be used at all, while a limited card lets you have one copy, and semi-limited allows two copies. The banlist is also subject to change at any point as the developers monitor the current meta, so don't get too married to your cards that are banned in the physical version.
