Konami Opens Lottery Sales for Yu-Gi-Oh!
Yu-Gi-Oh! full art card reveals along with Lottery - Konami has officially opened lottery sales for two highly anticipated Yu-Gi-Oh! Official Card Game booster packs: “LIMIT OVER COLLECTION -THE HEROES-” and “LIMIT OVER COLLECTION -THE RIVALS-”. These special releases are being introduced as festival packs, created to celebrate the legacy and lasting impact of the Yu-Gi-Oh! anime franchise.
Both collections pay tribute to the series’ most iconic characters by spotlighting legendary protagonists and their fiercest rivals. Fans can expect a powerful line-up of ace monsters, reimagined with brand-new effects and modernized artwork that brings classic characters into the current era of the OCG.
One of the most exciting aspects of these sets is the long-awaited debut of anime-exclusive cards that have never before been printed in physical form. These cards finally make their official OCG appearance, making the collections especially appealing to long-time fans and master set collectors.
Introduction of the Overframe Card Design
A major visual upgrade arrives with these festival packs through the debut of the “Overframe” card design. This marks the first appearance of full-art style cards in the Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG. The Overframe layout features dynamic illustrations that appear to burst beyond the traditional card borders, creating a striking 3D-like effect that enhances both display and collectability.
New Ultra-Premium Rarity: Grandmaster Rare
Collectors will also be able to chase the newly introduced “Grandmaster Rare” cards. This ultra-premium rarity is among the most exclusive in the game’s history, with each card featuring a unique serial number from 1 to 100. Due to their extreme scarcity and prestige, Grandmaster Rares are expected to become highly sought-after pieces for serious collectors and investors alike.
Spotlight on THE HEROES
The “LIMIT OVER COLLECTION -THE HEROES-” set places the focus squarely on the franchise’s main characters, delivering a powerful and nostalgic line-up that celebrates the heroes who defined Yu-Gi-Oh!’s legacy. Paired with its rival-focused counterpart, these collections represent a landmark release for both players and collectors.
With iconic monsters, never-before-printed cards, ground-breaking card design, and ultra-rare chase elements, the LIMIT OVER COLLECTION festival packs are shaping up to be one of the most exciting Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG releases to date.
Revealed Overframe cards for this set include:
Decode Talker Integration
Number 39 - Messenger of Light – Utopia
Four Heavens Dragon Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon
Elemental HERO Shining Flare Wingman
Stardust Dragon – Victim Sanctuary
King’s Servant – Dark Magician
For cards making their OCG debut in the Heroes pack, fans can expect “Underworld Circle” and “Great Spirit Machine Army – Pendulum Ruler.”
Spotlight on THE RIVALS
The “THE RIVALS” set focuses on the competitors who challenged the protagonists, featuring their own formidable aces.
Overframe cards in this set include:
Final Attack Dragon – Cyber End Dragon
White Phantom Beast – Blue-Eyes White Dragon
Four Heavens Dragon Starve Venom Fusion Dragon
Red Dragon Quetzalcoatl
Neo Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon – Photon Howling

In addition to the serious competitive cards, both sets will include reprints featuring cute “deformed” (chibi) style illustrations.
Final Thoughts
The LIMIT OVER COLLECTION -THE HEROES- and -THE RIVALS- festival packs represent a bold and meaningful celebration of Yu-Gi-Oh!’s history. By combining iconic anime moments with modern card design, long-awaited anime debuts, and premium chase rarities, Konami has created collections that appeal to both dedicated players and serious collectors.
The introduction of the Overframe full-art design and the ultra-exclusive Grandmaster Rare cards signals a new era for the OCG, one that places greater emphasis on visual impact, scarcity, and long-term collectability. Whether you’re drawn in by nostalgia, competitive potential, or investment value, these releases stand out as must-watch products in the Yu-Gi-Oh! line-up.
As lottery sales open and anticipation builds, the LIMIT OVER COLLECTION packs are poised to become landmark releases, honouring the past while setting a new standard for future OCG expansions.
