'''Speed Duel''' (スピードデュエル ''Supīdo Dyueru'') is a beginner format that is used in the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! Official Card Game]]'' and ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game]]''. It is easy to experience and recommended for players to remember the basics on how to play the game. This concept was first introduced in the "[[Duel Terminal]]" system under a different [[Speed Duel (Duel Terminal)|ruling system]]. It was later used as the main gameplay of ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters Saikyo Card Battle]]'' and ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links]]''. There is a [[Speed Duel (VRAINS)|format]] exclusive to the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS]]'' anime, for a Duel taking place in the [[Data Storm]] in [[LINK VRAINS]].<ref>{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh!
