Stall
Stall cards are cards that are used to prevent your opponent from attacking you.
Common Stall cards include:
- Monsters - "Spirit Reaper", "Big Shield Gardna", "Marshmallon" and "Battle Footballer"
- Spells - "Level Limit - Area B", "Swords of Revealing Light" and "Nightmare's Steelcage".
- Traps - "Gravity Bind", "Wall of Revealing Light", the "DNA Surgery" / "Insect Barrier" combo, and the "Macro Cosmos" / "Gravekeeper's Servant" combo
Decks usually include stall cards as part of a larger strategy, such as a Burn deck or an Exodia deck. They are also used to buy time for a player if their opponent gains an advantage over them.
