Official in-game rationales[edit]

  • "That Grass Looks Greener"
    • "This card will be Forbidden, as it is capable of giving the user an advantage to the extent that victory is almost certain."
  • "Cyber-Stein"
    • "This card will be Forbidden, as activating its effect on turn 1 can severely limit the other player's ability to fight back."
  • "Star Blast"
    • "This card will be limited, as paying Life Points with this card allows players to use various Skills too easily."
  • "Needlebug Nest"
    • "This card will be limited as, in some Decks, it gives players an advantage similar to drawing five cards."
  • "Gold Sarcophagus"
    • "This card will be added to the Limited 2 list along with "Charge of the Light Brigade" to prevent players from using multiple copies of both cards."
  • "Charge of the Light Brigade"

    • "This card will be limited to prevent "Karakuri" Decks from having access to generic Limited 2 cards."
  • "Keeper of Dragon Magic"
    • "This card will be limited so that it cannot be played alongside multiple copies of generic Limited 2 cards."
  • "Blackbird Close"

    • "This card will be added to the Limited 2 list along with "Charge of the Light Brigade" to prevent players from using multiple copies of both cards."
