During [[World Championship]] tournaments, all cards are automatically set to their lowest allowed [[status]] in any region. (For example, a card that is on the [[Semi-Limited]] list in one region but the [[Limited]] list in another will be Limited on the World Championship banlist, and a card that is Forbidden in one region but [[Unlimited]] in another will be Forbidden.)
* Any cards that are only available as tournament prize cards in any region, due to their extremely restricted availability:
** These currently include the following four [[Yu-Gi-Oh! Championship Series]] prize cards: "[[Blood Mefist]]", "[[Ascension Sky Dragon]]", and "[[Number 93: Utopia Kaiser]]"
** In [[World Championship 2015 Lists|2015]] and [[World Championship 2016 Lists|2016]], the previous year's tournament prize card was [[Limited]] instead of Forbidden* A select few "Special Rule" cards: "[[Emergency Provisions]]", "[[Mystik Wok]]", "[[Rainbow Life]]", "[[Tri-And-Guess]]", and "[[Self-Destruct Button]]"** These cards (since everyone who qualified to attend the World Championships would have an undesirable potential to abuse also met the "sudden death" and time limit rules in official tournaments. The first four cards allow a player in "sudden death" conditions 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 [[DRAW]]s until the time limit runs out (see the [[Card_Tips:Self-Destruct_Button|Tips]] page of that card for detailsat least one{{fact}}).
== Special Rule ==At some (but not all){{citation needed}} Japan-specific tournaments and World Championships, a select few additional cards have been Forbidden under a Special Rule. "Self-Destruct Button" allows players to legally stall for time by forcing [[DRAW]]s and replaying Duels, while the remaining cards all allow a player to suddenly gain a large amount of [[LP]] during their opponent's turn by paying a no-longer-relevant [[cost]], allowing them to abuse the sudden death win condition rules if a game's time limit runs out. "[[Self-Destruct Button]]" and "[[Rainbow Life]]" were Forbidden by Special Rule at Japan's [[World Championship Qualifiers 2014]].<ref name="YGOrg 3-19-14">{{cite web | url = https://ygorganization.com/ocg-forbidden-cards-at-japanese-world-qualifiers/ | title = <nowiki>[OCG] Forbidden Cards at Japanese World Qualifiers</nowiki> | author = NeoArkadia | website = The Organization | date = March 19, 2014 | accessdate = October 23, 2023}}</ref> "Self-Destruct Button", "Rainbow Life", "[[Emergency Provisions]]", "[[Mystik Wok]]", and "[[Tri-and-Guess]]" were Forbidden by Special Rule at the 2014-2016 World Championships;<ref name="YGOrg 7-15-14">{{cite web | url = https://ygorganization.com/world-championship-forbiddenlimited-list/ | title = World Championship Forbidden/Limited List | author = Ness | website = The Organization | date = July 15, 2014 | accessdate = October 23, 2023}}</ref> the 2018,<ref name="YGOrg 8-22-18">{{cite web | url = https://ygorganization.com/norayeifyoutrytonotplay/ | title = <nowiki>[OCG] Actual Details on Yu-Gi-Oh!

In such cases, they are usually allowed to only include at most one Forbidden card and only one copy of that Forbidden card (as opposed to one of each Forbidden card as with the case of Limited cards). This type of restriction would later be used as the [[Limited 1]] status in ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links]]''.
