DUELING
WHAT IS YU GI OH?
The Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game is a collectible card game based on Duel Monsters which appears as the main plot device in the popular Japanese manga Yu-Gi-Oh!, and the two Yu-Gi-Oh! anime series, which are Toei's Yu-Gi-Oh! series and NAS's Yu-Gi-Oh! series (known as Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters in Asia). In its fictional contexts, the game is sometimes referred to asM&W in the original Japanese manga.
The card game is known as Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters: Official Card Game (sometimes shortened as "OCG") in Asian countries where Konami releases the game. The game is known as the Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game in countries where Upper Deck Entertainment distributes the game. It is inspired by the game in the manga and anime series; however the rules are adhered to more strictly and are comparatively more consistent and balanced than the game represented in its fictional contexts.
Each player is allotted a certain number of Life Points at the start of the game, usually 8000, and the main objective of the game is to reduce an opponent's Life Points to zero, or win by alternate means. Like many other trading card games, Duel Monsters is a game mainly for two players to compete head-to-head, although there are unofficial variations of the rules thought up by fans that allow the play of three or more players.

OBJECT OF THE GAME
The object of the Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game is to win a match against your opponent.
A single match consists of three duels. Each card battle against your opponent in which a loss, a win, or a draw is determined is referred to as a duel.
Duel, WIN The player who:
- Is the first to win 2 Duels in a Match OR
- Has a win and 2 draws
Is declared the WINNER
DRAW
If the Duel results are:
- 1 win, loss, 1 draw OR
- 3 draws
The match is considered a DRAW.
If at any time during the duel either player’ s deck runs out of cards at any moment of the duel, the first player unable to draw cards is declared the LOSER.
If at any time during the duel a player hold these cards during the duel, he instantly win the duel:
CARD TYPES
There are a total of 6 card types, 20 monster types, 6 monster attributes, and 6 magic/trap effect.
Normal Monsters (Border color: Yellow) - These are just Duel Monsters that have no special abilities. Each monster card is listed with an attack power, a defense power, and a level (represented by the number of stars) that ranges from 1-8. Each monster also contains an attribute and type.
Fusion Monsters (Border color: Purple) - These cards are only placed in a duel by performing a Fusion through Polymerization (or by a special process). The Fusion process in explained later... The cards look similar to Normal Monsters, but the levels can go from 1-12.
Ritual Monsters (Border color: Blue) - These cards require a Magic Ritual Card to summon the Monster card. The Ritual process is explained later... The cards look similar to Normal Monsters.
Effect Monsters (Border color: Orange) - These monsters have a special effect that can be activated by meeting the proper conditions listed on the card. The cards look similar to Normal Monsters.
Magic Cards (Border color: Green) - These cards can be used during your Main Phase turns (some can be activated during the Battle Phase turn) to cause the ability listed on that card. Later in this section, I'll get into more detail about the type of Magic/Trap cards that are available.
Trap Cards (Border color: Pink) - Trap cards can only be activated the turn AFTER they are set. Some traps cards can only be activated during the Battle Phase, while others can be activated during the Main Phases.
