Here will be listed what is allowed or banned in the Standard racing ruleset, along with examples, an explanation, or a justification where necessary. This ruleset is subject to change based on the community feedback and the will of the Chamber of Sages. This ruleset is typically raced with glitchless logic. Other rulesets are also available.
