A free and open-source Reddit bot for looking up cards and other useful information about the Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game and Official Card Game. This is a port of the Discord bot.

Announcement post on /r/yugioh.

Summon /u/BastionBotYuGiOh in your submissions and comments on related subreddits with doubled curly braces, e.g. {{Tindangle Jhrelth}}. This is a fuzzy search on OCG and TCG cards and their prereleases. To summon Bastion elsewhere on Reddit, you can mention the bot user in your comments that contain curly brace search terms. If /u/BastionBotYuGiOh is mentioned without any search terms, it will reply with a short explanation about itself.

For bot safety, currently Bastion is tuned very conservatively to prevent bad behaviour, so it will ignore any summons in replies to its comments, there is a maximum of five card searches per submission or comment, and it will comment a maximum of 10 times per submission, resetting when the program is restarted.
