It’s not an older format this time.
Note: Limited Duel is a side event format in Japan similar to the TCG’s Time Wizard and other similar formats, where special restrictions of gameplay and Deck building apply.
Period: January to March, 2025
Deck Construction Restrictions: You can only use Link Monsters in your Extra Deck.
Details: You can only reduce your opponent’s Life Points to 0 via battle damage from your Link Monster’s attack.
■ Rules are Master Rule (April 1st 2020 Adjustment)
■ The damage that finally reduces Life Points to 0 must be from the attack of the above mentioned monster. Any damage is fine prior to that.
■ “Exodia the Forbidden One” does not win the Duel
■ If a player Decks out and a player cannot draw when they have to draw a card, the Duel is a loss for both players
■ If you attack your opponent with a monster that would reduce the opponent to 0 LP but is not a Link Monster, they take no damage.
■ If you attack your opponent’s monster with a monster that would reduce the opponent to 0 LP but is not a Link Monster, they take no damage.
■ If you attack with a Link Monster with less ATK than your opponent’s Link Monster, you take no battle damage.
■ The effects of Link Monsters you control cannot reduce your LP to 0 by cost or effect damage and such effects cannot be activated.

Just taking my seat. Wondering how many posts will say they wish for, or hate the TCG for not having this.
Oh, that’s neat. It’s good to see the OCG having more format styles like the TCG does.
Wonder how many anti-Link floodgates and self-mill strategies will piss off the people playing.
Oh yeah a format were if my opponent mills it’s own deck we both lose… how fun to play
