A Duelist's Main Deck is the pile of at least 40 to 60 cards (although there was originally no upward limit) that is placed on the Deck Zone. The Main Deck is, essentially, all the cards the duelist will be playing with in a Duel. This Deck may contain all of the Trap, Spell and Monster Cards one duelist may be using with the exception of Fusion Monsters, Synchro Monsters, and Xyz Monsters which are placed on the opposite end of the main Deck Zone in the Extra Deck. Whenever a card effect is activated that lets you search your Deck and select a card(s) to place in your Hand, on the field or in the Graveyard, you should always shuffle your Deck to maintain fair play.
