Advanced Format Forbidden and Limited Cards - Effective Oct-01-2004

In February of 2004, the Forbidden List for the Yu-Gi-Oh! TRADING CARD GAME was activated for tournaments in Asia. Upper Deck Entertainment will now offer the choice to stores and tournament organizers to run tournaments using the Forbidden List in North America, Europe, Latin America, and Oceana.

Some players and stores will not want to use a format with a Forbidden List. So there are now TWO formats.

Stores and Tournament Organizers will have the choice of which types of tournaments to run. Also, they are not locked into one format or the other. A store can run a tournament with the Forbidden List on one day and a tournament without the Forbidden List on the next day.

You, the player, can participate in any tournaments you want, no matter what the format. Both tournament formats will count toward the same player ranking. There will not be separate rankings for the two formats.
