| + | '''Control''' (Japanese: コントロール ''kontorōru'') refers to the side of the [[Playing Field|field]] a card is on. The card's controller is distinct from its [[owner]]. | ||
| − | + | Only a card's controller can look at it while it is [[face-down]]. Unless otherwise specified, players can only use monsters they control as [[Tribute]]s, [[Synchro Material Monster|Synchro Materials]] or [[Xyz Material Monster|Xyz Materials]]. Players can only [[attack]] using monsters they control, and can only target monsters their opponent controls for an attack (or [[Direct attack|attack directly]]). Players can only change the [[battle position]] of monsters they control (except by effects), and can only activate the effects of monsters they control. | |

For example, if "[[Relinquished]]" takes control of an opposing "[[Ryu-Kishin]]", it is placed in the Spell & Trap Card Zone of the controller of "Relinquished". Monsters that cannot change control cannot be equipped to monster in a way that would change their controller. |

| + | Changing control only takes place when the monster is on the field. A monster [[Special Summon]]ed from the opponent's [[hand]], [[Main Deck|Deck]], [[Graveyard]], or [[Banished Zone]]; such as by the effects of "[[Grapha, Dragon Lord of Dark World]]", "[[Conscription]]", "[[Goyo Guardian]]" and "[[Leviair the Sea Dragon]]", respectively; is not considered to change control. | ||

| + | When a card [[leaves the field]], is returned to the [[Main Deck]], or is [[detach]]ed, it is moved to the [[owner]]'s [[hand]], [[Main Deck]], [[Extra Deck]] or [[Banished Zone]] (depending on where the card would be sent), regardless of controller. | ||
