Sometimes, you come across cards and combos that are just slightly too overpowered in Yu-Gi-Oh Master Duel. The devs definitely notice them too, and to prevent anyone from taking advantage of these cards and combos, they get added to the banlist. The banlist is composed of both forbidden cards, which are entirely banned, and limited cards, which can only have one copy of each in any given deck. Yu-Gi-Oh Master Duel regularly has updates to its banlist, so be sure to keep up with any changes!
All Cards in Yu-Gi-Oh Master Duel Banlist
In total, there are 96 forbidden cards and 76 limited cards in the Yu-Gi-Oh Master Duel banlist, as well as several semi-limited cards that can only appear in a deck twice. Let’s take a look at each of them:
