The first Tag -Team Duel in the anime was [[Joey Wheeler]] and [[Yugi Muto]] vs. the [[Paradox Brothers]]. There have also been occurrences of 2 vs. 1 Duels (e.g Yugi and Kaiba vs. Dartz) and even 3 vs. 1 Duels ([[Tristan Taylor|Tristan]], [[Serenity Wheeler|Serenity]] and [[Duke Devlin|Duke]] vs. [[Nezbitt]] in the [[Virtual World (arc)|Virtual World]] Arc).

In ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V]]'', a Tag Duel occurs in [[Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V - Episode 107|episode 107]] between [[Gloria Tyler]] and [[Grace Tyler]] against [[Allen Kozuki]] and [[Saya Sasayama]]. In this Duel both players followed the normal Tag -Team Rules where each player shared a set of 4000 LP and the same field and Graveyard.
