How To: The Basics Of A Yu-Gi-Oh Match

You have all your accessories and you are set to play your first Yu-Gi-Oh! match.

The problem? You have no idea how the card game works. If you’ve found yourself worried that you will never fully understand how a Yu-Gi-Oh! match works, but you are itching to jump in to get started, then the below video might just be for you.

Tournament attendance records for Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG are broken every year and, because publisher Konami continually releases both support for the decks, it’s never been easier to enjoy Yu-Gi-Oh! and find people to play with.

We’ve put together a short explainer outlining the basics of a Yu-Gi-Oh match. Learn everything from how Monster cards, Spell cards and Trap cards work to the basic flow of a match. We have you covered.

Grab your playmat, get your deck ready and above else, get ready to have some fun. It’s time to duel!

A quick recap of everything we’ve learnt:

To begin a duel (a match), the Yu-Gi-Oh! decks are shuffled and each player draws five cards. The first thing you do every turn is draw a new card.

Phase 1: It’s good practice to make use of your non-combat actions first. This includes summoning one monster, setting up your spells and traps, and changing the battle positions of your monsters.

Battle Phase: Here, each monster in attack position gets to attack once. When you attack, you compare your Atk value to the opponent’s Atk or Def value.

Phase 2: This is the same as Phase 1, preparing for your opponent’s turn.

Last Phase: This is where everything comes together and the special card effects activate. If you have more than six cards in your hand, discard until you have six.

Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game TCG

The first Duelist to win two Duels is declared the winner of the Match.

If both Duelists have one loss in a Match and both receive a simultaneous Game Loss penalty, the Match is considered a Double Loss.

If both Duelists have won 1 Duel and the third Duel ends in a Draw, a fourth Duel must be played to determine who gets the second win.

A series of cards, known as Match winners, all have an effect that allows a player to win an entire Match instead of just a Duel if they reduce the opponent’s Life Points to 0 with a direct attack.

Now you are ready to play a Yu-Gi-Oh match!
