    Using “illegal” when referring to gameplay is already pushing it. It would raise eyebrows.

    No, that’s normal. Illegal moves in chess, illegal actions in Magic or Yugioh, illegal strategies in football.

      Yeah, and unless you’re an ultra game nerd, using illegal to refer to breaking the rules is strange. Most people say “against the rules” or “non-permissible”. It’s a small, niche usage of the word.

          I’m just telling you how native people speak.
