'''Banish''', formerly known as '''remove from play''' prior to the [[Problem-Solving Card Text]] update and called '''exclude''' (Japanese: {{Ruby||じょ}}{{Ruby||がい}} ''Jogai'') in the ''[[OCG]]'', is a term used to describe the act of moving card(s) to the [[Banished Zone]].
  
==Mechanics==
+
Cards can only be banished by a card that uses the word "banish" (or "remove from play" for cards without [[Problem-Solving Card Text]]).
Because banishing a card causes it to leave its current location, banishing a card on the field causes it to [[leaves the field|leave the field]]. Consequently, if a [[Monster Token]] is banished face-up, it is simply removed from the game rather than placed with the other banished cards.
 
  
Banished cards cannot be [[destroy]]ed. [[Return]]ing a banished card to the [[Graveyard]] is not considered to be [[send]]ing that card to the Graveyard, and can be done even if a card like "[[Dimensional Fissure]]" is active.
+
Banished cards cannot be [[destroy]]ed. [[Return]]ing a banished card to the [[Graveyard]] does not count as [[send]]ing that card to the Graveyard. Unless banished [[face-down]], banished cards are [[public knowledge]]. Also, the number of banished cards is public knowledge.
  
===Banished face-down===
+
A banished card is always returned to its [[owner]]'s [[possession]]. If a card controlled by a player that is not its owner is temporarily banished by a card like "[[Interdimensional Matter Transporter]]", while banished it will be in the [[possession]] of its owner, but when it returns to the [[field]] it will return to the side of the field of the player that controlled it when it was banished.<ref>{{cite book  |author=Konami  |title=Yu-Gi-Oh! Official Card Game - Perfect Rulebook 2015 |url=https://ygorganization.com/perfectrulebook/ |page=45}}</ref>
By default, cards are banished [[face-up]], with these cards being [[public knowledge]]. However, several cards can [[Banishes face-down|banish cards face-down]] (such as "[[Ghostrick Skeleton]]" and "[[Pot of Desires]]"); a card that is banished face-down is not public knowledge and can thus only be looked at by its [[possess]]or. A card that is banished face-down cannot be affected by cards that specify properties of the banished card, other than the card that banished it. (e.g. "[[Burial from a Different Dimension]]" cannot return face-down banished ''monsters'' to the GY, but "[[Virtual World Hime - Nyannyan]]" can shuffle a face-down banished ''card'' to the Deck.) The number of banished cards (including face-down banished cards) is public knowledge.
 
  
[[Monster Token]]s cannot be banished face-down.
+
The Banished Zone can be placed anywhere on the table, as it has no actual place in the game since it is not actually a [[Zone]] (as demonstrated from its absence on official play mats). However, it is typically placed either above or to the right of the [[Graveyard Zone]], or just under the field (right in front of the player). Most video games place it to the right of the Graveyard.
  
===Temporarily banished===
+
==Banishing face-down==
Card effects can temporarily banish cards until a later point in time, at which point the card returns to its original location. Returning a monster to the field from temporary banishment does not count as a Special Summon.
+
By default, cards are banished [[face-up]], and banished cards are public knowledge. However, several cards can [[Banishes face-down|banish cards face-down]], such as "[[Goblin Circus]]", "[[Ghostrick Skeleton]]", "[[Xyz Override]]" and "[[Pot of Desires]]"; a card that is banished face-down is not public knowledge and can thus only be looked at by its owner. A card that is banished face-down cannot be used for any purpose except that prescribed on the card that banished it.
  
If a card [[control]]led by a player that is not its [[owner]] is temporarily banished by a card like "[[Interdimensional Matter Transporter]]", while banished it will be in the [[possession]] of its [[owner]], but when it returns to the [[field]] it will return to the side of the field of the player that controlled it when it was banished. If its owner does not have an unoccupied [[Zone]] on the field to return it to, the card is instead sent to the Graveyard. Furthermore, if the effect that gave temporary control of that card to the opponent is no longer active, it will then return to the original owner.<ref>{{cite book  |author=Konami  |title=Yu-Gi-Oh! Official Card Game - Perfect Rulebook 2015 |url=https://ygorganization.com/perfectrulebook/ |page=45}}</ref> If a card would be banished when it leaves the field, if it is temporarily banished by another card effect, it does not return to the field.
+
==History==
 +
Originally, there were few cards which could banish other cards (called "remove from play" at the time), with some of the first being "[[Soul Release]]" and "[[Banisher of the Light]]". The first card to return them was "[[Miracle Dig]]".
  
==Banished cards==
+
However, over time, banishing has become a popular theme with several cards to go with it ([[Chaos]] and "[[D.D.]]" cards). In turn, more cards were created to bring them back, including "[[D.D.M. - Different Dimension Master]]", "[[Dimension Fusion]]", "[[Dimension Explosion]]", "[[Burial from a Different Dimension]]", and "[[Leviair the Sea Dragon]]".
[[File:PlayingField-WC11.png|thumb|right|The Game Mat as it appears in [[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's World Championship 2011: Over the Nexus]]. Banished cards are placed in the location offset to the right of the Graveyard.]]
 
Banished cards are not considered to be placed in any actual location, and as such there was no noun used to refer to their placement, or them as whole, in the ''TCG'' until ''[[Phantom Nightmare]]'', where "your banishment" was first used to refer to "cards in your possession that are banished" (although only on some cards). A somewhat similar change was introduced to the ''OCG'' a few sets earlier in ''[[Duelist Nexus]]'', which changed all references to "excluded cards" to "cards in '''excluded state'''" ({{Ruby|除|じょ}}{{Ruby|外|がい}}{{Ruby|状|じょう}}{{Ruby|態|たい}} ''Jogai Jōtai'').

These terms have never been used in [[card text]]s, and no longer used in official ruling materials.
+
In the Problem-Solving Card Text update, "remove from play" was renamed "banish" to make card texts less "clunky" and easier to understand, because in normal English "remove" and "from play" would often be broken up making many card texts unclear. Also, the term was often confused with "removed from the field", which was renamed "[[leaves the field]]" for this reason.<ref name="part2">{{cite web|url=https://yugiohblog.konami.com/articles/?p=2915|title=Problem-Solving Card Text, Part 2: New Words & Phrases|last=Tewart|first=Kevin|authorlink=Kevin Tewart|publisher=[[Konami]]|date=May 23, 2011|accessdate=July 28, 2011}}</ref>
  
In ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links]]'', banished cards are represented by an icon depicting a blue disintegrating card backing; previously, they were represented by an icon depicting a purple tombstone marked with an "X". In most video games, banished cards are placed in a pile to the right of their owner's Graveyard (from their perspective).
+
Thematically, cards which banish tend to either imply that the card's soul is being removed (e.g. "[[Kycoo the Ghost Destroyer]]", "[[Bazoo the Soul Eater]]") or are sent to another dimension (e.g. the "[[D.D.]]" [[series]]).

Since many Decks rely on the Graveyard, Decks that rely on the effects of "[[Dimensional Fissure]]", "[[Macro Cosmos]]", "[[Banisher of the Light]]", and "[[Banisher of the Radiance]]" have grown in power. Being able to shut down an opponents Graveyard plus having "[[D.D. Survivor]]", an 1800 [[ATK]] monster that keeps returning every time it's banished while face-up, have shown themselves to be powerful Decks. "[[D.D. Scout Plane]]" is also incredibly useful in these Decks: if it is banished from your hand or Deck, it will be [[Special Summon]]ed. The main weakness of these Decks is the fact that it is not difficult to remove the card that banishes other cards; "[[Imperial Iron Wall]]" and "[[Chaos Hunter]]" counter such Decks with ease.
In ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! (anime)|Yu-Gi-Oh!]]'' and ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! GX]]'', if a [[Duel Disk]] is connected to a [[Dueling Arena]], the banished cards are put where the [[Graveyard]] of the Dueling Arena is. If not, the banished cards were placed in the Duelist's pockets.<ref name="gx ep58">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh!

In ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V]]'', cards banished from the Graveyard disintegrate with a vortex, cards banished from the field disintegrate and scatter, and cards banished from the hand disintegrate into a purple sphere. However, it is unclear where these cards are kept.

In ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL]]'', monsters being banished or Special Summoned from the Banished Zone sometimes enter in and emerge from portals identical to the Graveyard's one, but green.
In ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS]]'', cards banished from the GY are disintegrated with a high-tech appearing vortex interface. Cards that are banished from the hand and/or field are dissolved into green particles. While displaying banished cards on-screen, their location is depicted as an endlessly spiraling green twister.

==Trivia==

In ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V]]'', cards banished from the Graveyard disintegrate with a vortex, cards banished from the field disintegrate and scatter, and cards banished from the hand disintegrate into a purple sphere.
* Thematically, cards which banish tend to imply either that the card's soul is being removed (e.g. "[[Kycoo the Ghost Destroyer]]", "[[Bazoo the Soul Eater]]") or that the card is sent to another dimension (e.g. the "[[D.D.]]" [[series]]).
 
* One of the reasons that "remove from play" was renamed to "banish" in the [[Problem-Solving Card Text]] update was because it was too easily confused with the similarly-named "removed from the field", which itself was renamed to "[[leaves the field]]" in the same update.<ref name="part2">{{cite web|url=https://yugiohblog.konami.com/articles/?p=2915|title=Problem-Solving Card Text, Part 2: New Words & Phrases|last=Tewart|first=Kevin|authorlink=Kevin Tewart|publisher=[[Konami]]|date=May 23, 2011|accessdate=July 28, 2011}}</ref>
