So, SkyPyrus had gotten me to thinking, why don't I just show all of you the basics to the Yu-Gi-Oh Trading Card Game. This would provide a nice and easy way to let some of you people who like to play learn a bit more.
I will be adding updates to this.
Ok, so heres my long list of how to play Yu-Gi-Oh with a good strategy.
Normal Monster Cards
Normal Monster cards have no effects but are classics. They tend to have a higher attack power thanks to that, but not always.
They can be utilized by cards like Heart of the Underdog and Common Charity.
Having 1 - 2 normal monsters isnt bad, but I would stick to using effect monsters for a specific reason.
Fusion Monsters
Fusion Monsters are monsters that (not always) require the spell card: Polymerization. They come in all different shapes and sizes. Some have effects, some don't. Fusion monsters such as Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon have high attack power. But others like Arcana Knight Joker do have effects.
Synchro Monsters
Again, as always, some synchro monsters don't have effects, but are powerful.
Yusei Futo was a part of the Yu-Gi-Oh 5Ds series. He is basicly my dueling idol. He uses Synchros to prevent his cards from being destroyed. Preferably using Stardust Dragon.
Here is an example of how to summon a Synchro Monster:
"Level 2 Krebons tunes with level 3 Marauding Captain to summon level 5 Ally of Justice Catastor"
Basicly you just take a monster's level and add it to another's to summon a higher level monster from your extra deck (The extra deck is where Fusion, Synchro, and Xyz monsters are kept).
But to have a successful Synchro Summon you must have a monster of the 2 or more monsters you use to synchro summon be a 'Tuner' monster. You can look that up yourself.
Xyz Monsters
Xyz monsters are an infamous bunch of monsters... To summon one, you must have 2 or more monsters on the field that are the same level as each other, and that of the Xyz monster you wish to summon. Such as this:
"I can fill the overlay network with level 4 Gagaga Magician and Gagaga Girl to summon Number 39, Utopia! (Level 4)"
Xyz monsters use their abilites by removing overlay units from them. The number of overlay units depends on how many monsters were used to Xyz summon the monster. Xyz monsters can only have a certain amount of monsters be used to Xyz summon it.
Such as Number 39 Utopia requires that only 2 monsters be used.
Otherwhile, monsters like Number 91 Dark Void require 3 (I think although I'm not totally sure if this xyz monster requires 3).
Numbered Xyz are special though. You can combine them with their overlay units to convert them into Chaos Numbers.
"I now combine my Number 39 Utopia with it's overlay units to fill the overlay network and have Utopia go through Chaos Evolution to turn itself into Chaos Number 39 Utopia Ray!"
Thats it for Monsters. I hope you got this into place. Now for Spells and Traps...
Spells
Some spells enhance a Monsters performance by raising it's attack or defense. those are most likely to be equip spells. But then others allow you to summon more monsters, or summon 1 from the graveyard.
Some allow you to lower/raise you or your opponent's life points.
You can also use some such as Mystical Space Typhoon to destroy an opponent's spell or trap card. Just read what it says on the description and you should be fine.
Also, some spells can be only activated at certain times. Then theres Field spells that can do things that each player can do.
Traps
Traps can be activated at almost any time, except the turn they are placed face down. Just read what they say and ask yourself how you would benefit with that card in your deck.
----------------------------------------------------
Now for the basics of PLAYING the game.
How Life Points Work
Life points are basicly how much damage you can endure. Such as you start with 4000 and you lose when your life points hit 0.
Your life points drop when your opponent successfully attacks you directly (THAT IS NOT GOOD). Or you deal damage to yourself, or your opponent does.
You may want to prevent that at any chance because in this game, every life point is worth something.
You can raise your life points (or your oppents, whatever).

There, you now know some knowledge about Yu-Gi-Oh, if you have any specific questions, just let me know.
THIS IS JUST THE FIRST POST OF MANY.
I will be adding updates to this.
