  version: v7
  description: 'YGOPRODeck is a free, community-run REST API for the complete Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game

    corpus. The v7 API exposes card search and filtering, card sets, archetypes, the valid

    value enumerations used by the search engine (types, races, attributes, link markers),

    the underlying database version, and a random-card endpoint. No authentication is required;

    the documented rate limit is 20 requests per second per IP (one-hour ban on violation).
