To Set (セット Setto) is to place a card face-down on the field.

Monster Cards are Set in the Monster Card Zones, and must be Set in Defense Position. Setting a monster directly from the hand without a card effect is called a Normal Set; Tributing to Normal Set a monster is called a Tribute Set. Players can only Normal Summon or Set once per turn. Normal Setting is not considered summoning; however, monsters Set to the field with a card effect are treated as being Special Summoned in face-down Defense position.

With the exception of Field Spell Cards, which are Set in the Field Card Zone, Spell and Trap Cards are Set in the Spell & Trap Card Zones. In all cases, the cards are Set vertically.
