January 10 2024 Banlist Update

A new banlist update is on the way for Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel, taking effect on January 10, 2024. Check here for all the details on what cards are being Forbidden, Limited, Semi-Limited and Unlimited!

January 10 2024 Banlist Update

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

List of Forbidden & Limited Cards

The following cards will have their restrictions changed following the scheduled update on January 10, 2024:

Cards Moved to Forbidden

Newly Forbidden Cards
Chaos Ruler, the Chaotic Magical Dragon	White Dragon Wyverburster
Card of Demise	Superheavy Samurai Soulbreaker Armor

Forbidden Cards To No Longer Appear In Card Packs

If a card has been designated as Forbidden in a banlist update, the card will no longer appear in any Card Pack after the Maintenance scheduled on January 10, 2024.

They can still be generated after the new status, however, and can only be used under Unlimited rules in a Duel Room.

Cards Moved to Limited

Newly Limited Cards
Kashtira Fenrir	Inspector Boarder
There Can Be Only One	Runick Destruction
Pot of Desires	Kaiser Colosseum
Kashtira Birth	Pot of Duality
Purrely Delicious Memory	Synchro Zone

Cards Moved to Semi-Limited

Newly Semi-Limited Cards
Purrely Pretty Memory

Cards Moved to Unlimited

Newly Unlimited Cards
Redox, Dragon Ruler of Boulders	Tidal, Dragon Ruler of Waterfalls	Tempest, Dragon Ruler of Storms
Speedroid Terrortop	Predaplant Ophrys Scorpio	Swordsoul Strategist Longyuan

Dismantling Bonuses

Dismantling old cards that were moved to Semi-Limited, Limited, or Forbidden will grant users a 20-point Craft Point bonus, regardless of card finish. 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.

For example, if an Unlimited card is moved into being Limited, that is two cards reduced. Meaning, players can get the bonus to up to two times only when dismantling cards.
