'''Normal Summon''' (通常召喚 ''Tsūjō Shōkan'', somtimes simply called '''Summon''' in [[OCG]]) is the most common way to [[Summon]] [[monster]]s. It can only be performed when the [[game state]] is open during your [[Main Phase]]. You simply play a monster directly from your [[hand]] onto the [[Monster Card Zone]] in [[face-up]] [[Attack Position]]. [[Gemini monster]]s can be Normal Summoned a [[Gemini Summon|second time]] while they are face-up on the field.
A Normal Summon can only be conducted once per [[turn]], even if it was [[negate]]d by a card like "[[Forced Back]]". A Normal Summon will take up your [[Normal Set]] for the turn, and vice-versa.
You cannot Normal Summon [[Special Summon Monster]]s.
Some cards can change the Normal Summoning rules. For example, [[Gemini monster]]s can be [[Gemini Summon|Normal Summoned]] once while they are face-up on the field. Another example is "[[Ultimate Offering]]" that allows you to Normal Summon extra monster, and it lets you Normal Summon even during your opponent's [[Battle Phase]]. Also, "[[Light of Intervention]]" will which allow you to Normal Summon monsters in [[Defense Position]].
