Along with this, a more detailed guide for how skills work has been posted!
- You are not required to use Skill Cards, but if you do, choose exactly 1 Skill Card before each Duel.
- At the start of the Duel, place that 1 Skill Card face-down next to your Field Zone or Extra Deck unless the Skill Card instructs you to do something else with it. (E.g.: It’s a Toon World! tells you to place it in your center Spell/Trap Zone and flip it over at the start of the Duel.)
- If a Skill says that it’s a certain type of card in its Type line, like Continuous Spell or Continuous Trap, then after the Duel begins, it’s always that type of card and follows all the rules for that type of card instead of the rules for Skill Cards.
- During the Duel, you can activate your Skill Card by flipping it face-up. If your Skill Card tells you when you can activate it, then you can only activate it at that time, when there is no Chain being built or resolved. If your Skill Card doesn’t say when you can activate it, then you can only activate it during your Main Phase when there is no Chain being built or resolved. For more information on how to determine when the game is or isn’t in an open game state, click here.
- Activating a Skill or Skill Card does not start a Chain and is not a card effect. Cards/effects cannot be activated in response to the activation of a Skill. However, cards and effects can be activated after a Skill has resolved as appropriate. (E.g.: If Cocoon of Ultra Evolution Special Summons a monster, then after that monster is Summoned, players can activate cards and effects just like any other time a monster is Summoned, so cards like Floodgate Trap Hole or Adhesion Trap Hole can be activated.)
- The Skill on your Skill Card can only be activated once per Duel unless it has specific instructions otherwise or flips itself face-down. If it does, follow the instructions on your Skill Card.
