9-30 Banlist Update Top Image.png
A new banlist is on the way for Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel coming on September 30th. Check here for all the details on what cards are being limited and semi-limited!

9/30 Updated Limited and Banlist

The new Banlist goes into effect on September 30th, 2022.

Konami has compiled the trends and results of Decks used in Ranked Duels, and will limit cards and Decks with outstandingly high usage and win rates in line with their impact on the metagame.

The changes made to the list reflect Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel's aim of preventing Decks from being too difficult to counter, and ensuring the game's tactical element is not compromised by overly short Duels.

The following cards will have their restrictions changed following the scheduled update on September 30, 2022:

Dismantling Bonuses

Dismantling cards moved to semi-limited, limited, or forbidden will grant users a 20-point Craft Point bonus. The number of times the bonus can be gained corresponds to the reduction in the maximum copies of the card per Deck due to the limited/forbidden list.

Dismantling Bonus Duration
