Limited Format Ban List Update v1.1 - Effective January 20th

Hello World Bladers,

Since we introduced the Limited Format early last month on a trial basis free from BeyPoints processing there has been numerous tournament results, and much discussion in the community about what changes should be made in order to make the format as fair and balanced as is possible. Taking all of that into consideration we have decided to make the following changes to the ban list:

Limited Format Ban List v1.1 Effective January 20th

Newly Banned
  • WHEEL: Gravity
Newly Unbanned
  • WHEEL: Omega
  • BOTTOM: RB


As was initially intended with the Limited Format, the ban list is dynamic, so this is by no means final. We will continue to monitor the status of the format and further updates will be made when it becomes obvious that certain parts are deserving of being banned/unbanned. This is something that is going to continually evolve as a result of community involvement; it can therefore only happen if you all continue to embrace the format as you have thus far. So, keep hosting Limited Format tournaments!

Because we know that it may be inconvenient for players to learn of updates just prior to previously scheduled tournaments we will always make an effort to make sure we give everyone sufficient notice (hence the effective January 20th date for this update).
