An automatically-updated database and JSON API of Yu-Gi-Oh! Forbidden & Limited Lists, also known as Limit Regulations (colloquially, "banlists"). Covers the Trading Card Game (TCG), Official Card Game (OCG), Master Duel video game, and Rush Duel. This forms part of the YAML Yugi project.
The collection of limit regulations is found under /data and published to GitHub Pages to serve the API.
In each data subdirectory, current.vector.json is a symlink pointing to the most recent effective limit regulation for
that game version.
- TCG: https://dawnbrandbots.github.io/yaml-yugi-limit-regulation/tcg/current.vector.json
- OCG: https://dawnbrandbots.github.io/yaml-yugi-limit-regulation/ocg/current.vector.json
- Rush Duel: https://dawnbrandbots.github.io/yaml-yugi-limit-regulation/rush/current.vector.json
- Master Duel: https://dawnbrandbots.github.io/yaml-yugi-limit-regulation/master-duel/current.vector.json
If a newer list has been announced but it is not yet the effective date, then an upcoming.vector.json symlink will be present in that data subdirectory alongside current.vector.json.
The remaining files — the actual source code of this stage of the pipeline — are available under the GNU Affero General Public License 3.0 or later. See COPYING for more details.
The TCG list effective 2022-05-23 was actually effective 2022-05-17, but Konami retconned this in its reported data at some point for some unknown reason. Fetch history:
