Deck out

A Deck out is a term used to describe losing when one cannot draw a card. Mill Decks use this as their primary win condition, such as in "Lightsworn" or "Laval" Decks.

In the anime, a Deck out has occurred only three times - Seto Kaiba Decked out against Maximillion Pegasus, Strings against Yami Yugi and Howard X Miller against Jaden Yuki. Duelists such as Howard X Miller, Sartorius, Mr. Armstrong and Breo have used Decking out as their strategy, albeit unsuccessfully.
