World Championship
During World Championship tournaments, several cards are made Forbidden in addition to those on the OCG and TCG lists:
- Any region-restricted cards, including:
- Any TCG exclusive or OCG exclusive cards
- Any promotional cards that have only been released through a region-restricted method and have not been reprinted yet (including recent Shonen Jump promotional cards, manga promotional cards, and tournament prize cards)
- A complete list of the above: "Unity", "Yu-Jo Friendship", "Judgment of the Pharaoh", "Troposphere", "Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Evening Twilight", "Ebon Illusion Magician", "Infernity General", "Blackwing - Gram the Shining Star", "Stardust Spark Dragon", "Hot Red Dragon Archfiend", "Kachi Kochi Dragon", "Number 22: Zombiestein", "Number 72: Shogi Rook", "Snow Plow Hustle Rustle", "Night Express Knight", "Special Schedule", "Blood Mefist", "Digvorzhak, King of Heavy Industry", "Number 106: Giant Hand", "Ascension Sky Dragon"
- A select few "Special Rule" cards: "Emergency Provisions", "Mystik Wok", "Rainbow Life", "Tri-And-Guess", and "Self-Destruct Button"
- These cards have an undesirable potential to abuse the "sudden death" and time limit rules in official tournaments. The first four cards allow a player in "sudden death" to instantly win by quickly gaining a large number of Life Points during the opponent's turn with a now-irrelevant cost, while the last card allows a player to legally stall by forcing DRAWs until the time limit runs out (see the Tips page of that card for details).
Anime/Manga
During the Battle City arc it is mentioned that "directly damage the player", such as "Hinotama" and "Meteor of Destruction", are Forbidden.[1]
In Yu-Gi-Oh! GX it is mentioned that "Chaos Emperor Dragon - Envoy of the End" is Forbidden.[2]
A handful of other cards are noted by characters as "Forbidden" in the anime, including "Golden Castle of Stromberg"[3] in the original series and "Infernalvania" inYu-Gi-Oh! GX.
