Dark Beginning 1 (DB1) is the 14th booster pack in the English Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG. It is the first set to feature Yugi Muto on the pack, as all the other sets usually have Yami Yugi. The first reprint set in the TCG, it contains the Japanese sets Duelist Legacy Volume.1, Duelist Legacy Volume.2, and the first "half" of Duelist Legacy Volume.3 (i.e., most cards from LOB-LON). It contains all 5 pieces of "Exodia the Forbidden One", as well as many other cards with decreased rarity. Also, it contains a few cards never before seen in boosters.
Designed for beginners, every pack has 12 cards—instead of the normal 9—and a "Tip Card", which has a special tip to increase your game knowledge. Dark Beginning (and all other Reprint Packs) always contain 6 Monster Cards, 3 Trap Cards, 3 Spell Cards, 1 Tip Card and 1 or even 2 rares.
This set is the same set as Beginner's Edition.1 (BE1-JP) in the Japanese Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG.
