Get ready to enter the Duelist Nexus this summer with the new core booster set! Duelist Nexus features the introduction of a brand new monster type to the Yu-Gi-Oh! TRADING CARD GAME with the Illusion monsters. These powerful creatures cannot be defeated in battle, but can cause destruction to other cards on the field. One such monster, Nightmare Magician, allows you to take control of any monster it battles and destroy any card on the field if another monster attacks.
The Yu-Gi-Oh! trading card game is a strategic trading card game based on the Japanese manga and anime series. The game involves players using decks of cards representing monsters, spells, and traps to defeat their opponents. Each player starts with a set amount of life points, and the goal is to reduce the opponent’s life points to zero. The game has evolved over the years, with new rules and card types introduced, including Synchro, Xyz, and Link monsters. Players can also build their own custom decks, choosing from a vast array of cards with varying abilities and strengths.
