[[File:Action Cards being spread.png|thumb|left|Action Cards being spread in the field.]]
An Action Duel can only take place if a [[Field Spell Card]] that allows the activation of Action Cards is active. When an Action Duel begins, Action Cards are disbursed in a fashion fitting the theme of the active Field Spell, which means the cards can be spread out immediately for the Duelists to find or can be made available at different times via the field's setting. Duelists can search for them during the Duel, and if they find an Action Card they can add it to their [[hand]]. Duelists can only hold on to one Action Card at a time.<ref name="ep1">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V|1|ref}}</ref> Each player has a time limit during their turn in order to keep them from stalling the Duel in a continuous search for Action Cards.<ref name="ep9">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V|9|ref}}</ref>
Some duelists purposely refrain from searching for Action Cards, such as Yuya's friend [[Gong Strong]], these duelists are called "Non-Action" or "Heavystrong" duelists. ("Steadfast" duelists in the original version.)
There are several Action Cards that appear in different fields and are usually used to help save the Duelist from an attack (such as "[[Evasion]]" and "[[Miracle]]"). However, there are some Action Cards that appear to be specific to the field they appear in, following its theme. Examples include "[[Twinkle Comet]]" correlating to "[[Cosmic Sanctuary]]", "[[Extreme Sword]]" to "[[Sword's Cemetery]]", and "[[High Dive]]" to "[[Acrobatic Circus]]".
