All [[Monster Cards]] [[Destroyed by battle|destroyed as a result of battle]], are automatically classed as being 'Sent', as are Monster Cards [[destroy]]ed by [[card effect]]s.

'''Send''' ({{Ruby|送|おく}}る ''Okuru''), used only in the context of '''send/sent to the [[GY]]''', refers to the act of moving a card to the [[Graveyard]], except moving [[banish]]ed cards to the Graveyard or swapping the [[Main Deck|Deck]] with the Graveyard.
  
Cards [[Discard]]ed from your hand and also considered 'Sent', however, 'Sent' cards are not automatically classed as Discarded.  Similarly, when a card is destroyed it is considered 'Sent', however, 'Sent' cards are not automatically considered 'destroyed'<sup><font class=plainlinks>[http://yugioh.faq.konami.jp/EokpControl?&lang=en&tid=15668&event=FE0006 ref]</font></sup>.
+
Any card moved to the Graveyard (with the two aforementioned exceptions) is considered to be sent to the Graveyard, regardless of whether the action that moved it there specifies that the card is "sent".
  
Proper knowledge of the difference between 'Sent' and 'Destroyed' could mean the difference between a win and a loss in playing the game. For example, some of the [[Dark World]] series of monsters have their effects activate when they are discarded to the graveyard. They activate with the resolution of [[Card Destruction]] but not [[Hand Destruction]] because the former '[[discard]]s' them to the graveyard while the latter 'sends' them to the graveyard.
+
==Sending cards to the Graveyard==
 +
Cards can be sent to the Graveyard in many ways:
 +
* A [[Normal Spell Card|Normal]], [[Quick-Play Spell Card|Quick-Play]] or [[Ritual Spell Card|Ritual]] [[Spell Card]], or a [[Normal Trap Card|Normal]] or [[Counter Trap Card|Counter]] [[Trap Card]] will be sent to the Graveyard after the whole [[Chain]] in which it was activated in [[resolve]]s if it is still on the [[field]], unless it has an effect that keeps it on the field (such as "[[Swords of Revealing Light]]").
 +
* A [[Spell Card|Spell]] or [[Trap Card]] will be sent to the Graveyard at the end of the [[Chain]] it was activated in if its [[activation]] was [[negate]]d, if it has not already been moved somewhere.
 +
* If a player already controls a [[Field Spell Card]], the existing Field Spell Card will be sent to the Graveyard immediately before that player activates another Field Spell Card.
 +
* A monster will be sent to the Graveyard after its [[Summon]] is negated, if it has not already been moved somewhere.
 +
* If a monster would be Summoned, but there is no free [[Monster Zone]] for it. (For example, "[[Juragedo]]" activates its effect to Special Summon itself, but "[[Ojama Trio]]" is chained so that there are no free Monster Zones when it resolves.)
 +
* An [[excavate]]d card that cannot be moved to the proper location. (For example, cards that would be [[Add a card|added]] to the [[hand]] or [[Special Summon]]ed by "[[Cyber Jar]]" while "[[Deck Lockdown]]" is active.)
 +
* [[Fusion Material]]s are sent to the Graveyard when used for a [[Fusion Summon]].
 +
* [[Synchro Material]]s are sent to the Graveyard when used for a [[Synchro Summon]].
 +
* [[Link Material]]s are sent to the Graveyard when used for a [[Link Summon]].
 +
* [[Xyz Material]]s are sent to the Graveyard if the [[Xyz Monster]] they are [[attach]]ed to [[leaves the field]].
 +
* By card that specifically uses this term (as a [[cost]], [[effect]], or as part of a [[Summoning condition]]), like "[[Elemental HERO Prisma]]", "[[Darkfall]]" and "[[Elemental HERO Neo Bubbleman]]".
 +
* As a result of:
 +
**being [[Tribute]]d
 +
**being [[destroy]]ed
 +
**being [[discard]]ed
 +
**being [[detach]]ed
  
Another example is the effect of [[Dark End Dragon]]. Because its effect sends monsters to the graveyard, it cannot be chained to by the effects of [[Stardust Dragon]], [[My Body as a Shield]], [[Destruction Jammer]], and the like because it does not '[[destroy]]' the monster.
+
==Moving cards to the Graveyard without sending==
 +
* [[Return]]ing a [[banish]]ed card to the [[Graveyard]] is not considered to be "sending a card to the Graveyard".<ref>{{cite book  |last=Konami  |title=Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game - Official Rulebook Version 10  |url=https://yugipedia.com/wiki/File:Rulebook_v10.pdf?page=59  |pages=55}}</ref> Thus, even if a card like "[[Macro Cosmos]]" is active, "[[Miracle Dig]]" and "[[Fortune's Future]]" can be used to return cards to the Graveyard; the returned cards will not be banished.
 +
* If there is no free Monster Zone when a temporarily banished monster would return to the field, it is placed in the Graveyard. This monster is not considered to be sent to the Graveyard.<ref>{{cite web  |url=https://www.db.yugioh-card.com/yugiohdb/faq_search.action?ope=5&fid=24029&request_locale=ja  |title=「S:Pリトルナイト」の効果で自分のモンスター2体を除外したエンドフェイズに、自分の使用できるモンスターゾーンが1ヵ所のみの場合、処理はどうなりますか? |publisher=Konami  |language=Japanese |date=23 November 2023 |accessdate=15 March 2024}}</ref>
 +
* Swapping the [[Main Deck]] with the Graveyard for the effect of "[[Exchange of the Spirit]]" is not considered sending to the Graveyard.<ref>{{cite web  |url=http://entertainment.upperdeck.com:80/yugioh/en/gameplay/faqs/cardfaqs/default.aspx?first=D&last=E  |title=<nowiki>Individual Card Rulings [D-E</nowiki>&#93;  |publisher=UDE  |at=Exchange of the Spirit  |accessdate=16 October 2017  |archiveurl=http://web.archive.org/web/20090218205242/http://entertainment.upperdeck.com:80/yugioh/en/gameplay/faqs/cardfaqs/default.aspx?first=D&last=E  |archivedate=18 February 2009}}</ref><ref>{{cite web  |url=https://www.db.yugioh-card.com/yugiohdb/faq_search.action?ope=5&fid=14575&request_locale=ja  |title=Q&A » 「現世と冥界の逆転」の効果処理によって、デッキと墓地を入れ替える際に、「マクロコスモス」や「次元要塞兵器」の効果が適用されている場合、処理はどうなりますか?  |publisher=Konami  |language=Japanese  |trans-title=Q&A » When swapping the Deck and Graveyard due to the effect of "Exchange of the Spirit", if the effect of "Macro Cosmos" or "Dimension Fortress Weapon" is being applied, what happens?  |date=24 March 2017  |accessdate=16 October 2017}}</ref>
  
Yet another is why the effects of [[Sangan]], [[Dandylion]] and [[The White Stone of Legend]] activate when they are [[tribute]]d. Their card texts state 'When this card is sent (from the [[Playing Field|field]]) to the graveyard...' Therefore they do not have to be [[destroy]]ed unlike [[Giant Rat]], [[Shining Angel]], etc.

Send (おくOkuru), used only in the context of send/sent to the GY, refers to the act of moving a card to the Graveyard, except moving banished cards to the Graveyard or swapping the Deck with the Graveyard.

Any card moved to the Graveyard (with the two aforementioned exceptions) is considered to be sent to the Graveyard, regardless of whether the action that moved it there specifies that the card is "sent".

Sending cards to the Graveyard[edit]

Cards can be sent to the Graveyard in many ways:

Moving cards to the Graveyard without sending[edit]

  • Returning a banished card to the Graveyard is not considered to be "sending a card to the Graveyard".[1] Thus, even if a card like "Macro Cosmos" is active, "Miracle Dig" and "Fortune's Future" can be used to return cards to the Graveyard; the returned cards will not be banished.
  • If there is no free Monster Zone when a temporarily banished monster would return to the field, it is placed in the Graveyard. This monster is not considered to be sent to the Graveyard.[2]
  • Swapping the Main Deck with the Graveyard for the effect of "Exchange of the Spirit" is not considered sending to the Graveyard.[3][4]
