FLOOR RULES

Here are basic manners and rules to enjoy battles.
Please read them carefully before participating in events.

Regarding Banned/Restricted Cards

GCG rules permit up to four copies of cards with the same card number to be included in a deck, but there are occasions, such as official or sanctioned tournaments, when certain cards will be designated as banned or restricted. When a card is banned, that means that not even one copy of that card can be included in either your deck or your sideboard, and when a card is restricted, that means that only a specified number of copies of that card may be included in your deck and your sideboard. For example, a card listed as restricted (2) may have no more than two copies included in your deck and your sideboard combined.

1. Cards with the same card number and different illustrations are still considered the same card.
2. Cards on the "Banned/Restricted Card" list may be removed and the list updated when the game environment changes, so please be sure to check it regularly for updates.
