Hey guys, Tinker is back again to discuss an exciting update to the TCG which I have been waiting for a while to receive. While it doesn\u2019t affect the main format, it\u2019s a modernization of a classical alternative format which many might be familiar with!<\/span><\/p>\n

Tag Dueling Update!<\/b><\/p>\n

Duelists Unite for Victory<\/b><\/p>\n

Tag Duels is a popular alt format in Yu-Gi-Oh, especially in the casual community. After all, what\u2019s not to love about the idea of two Duelists uniting together to combine strategies and crush their opponents?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As someone who has been really enthusiastic about the format in general, I can already recall spending weeks just planning with my Teammate on what exactly we would pair, how our decks would bounce off each other, and any weaknesses which the other could possibly patch.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, one of the major blemishes on the format, was a lack of clear rulings on key parts of the modern day. The previous rules were last released in 2013 (For those curious about how those went, I recommend you check out Ark\u2019s article <\/span>here<\/span><\/a>.) But, finally, new rules have arrived, clearing up a lot of questions we all have been having.<\/span><\/p>\n

Now, I\u2019d recommend you check out the official article <\/span>here<\/span><\/a>. But, the rest of this article is aimed at discussing the format and giving a few run down on the basics for those wanting to dive into it.<\/span><\/p>\n
