Yu-Gi-Oh! Rush Duel (遊戯王ラッシュデュエル Yūgiō Rasshu Dyueru) is a Yu-Gi-Oh! card game. Rush Duel rules are designed to be simplified versions of the Yu-Gi-Oh! Official Card Game to better appeal to younger audiences.

Rush Duel was first released in Japan in April 2020, and appear in the anime and manga of both Yu-Gi-Oh! SEVENS and Yu-Gi-Oh! GO RUSH!!.[1]

Rush Duel was introduced internationally with the release of the video game Yu-Gi-Oh! RUSH DUEL: Dawn of the Battle Royale!![2], as well as the September 2023 update for Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links.[3] However, the physical card game is currently exclusive to Japan and Korea.[4]

Overview

A Yu-Gi-Oh! Rush Duel field

Being a derivative of the OCG, Rush Duel shares similarities with it, with some notable alterations and additions. Differences that Rush Duel was advertised as having include:

  • Players can Normal Summon/Set as many monsters as they want in a single turn. Level 5 and higher monsters still follow the same Tribute Summon requirements as the TCG/OCG.
  • Players start the Duel with four cards in their hand. During their Draw Phase, the turn player draws cards until they have five cards in their hand. If the player has five or more cards in their hand, they draw one card.
    • Players have no hand size limit.
    • The player who goes first draws one card on the first turn.
    • If a player would draw, but lacks enough cards (e.g. the player has four or less cards in their Deck, and no cards in their hand during the Draw Phase), that player loses the Duel.
  • Rush Duel has a Monster Card type currently exclusive to it: Maximum Monsters, which are composed of three specific monsters that can be Maximum Summoned as a single monster.

Other rule differences include:

  • The field resembles that of Speed Duels. Each player has 3 Monster Zones, 3 Spell & Trap Zones, and a Field Zone on their field. There is an Extra Deck Zone, but no Pendulum Zones or Extra Monster Zones.
  • Spell Cards include Normal Spell Cards, Field Spell Cards, and Equip Spell Cards. The only Trap Cards are Normal Trap Cards.
  • Fusion Monsters appear; however their Japanese name is written with the English word "Fusion" (「フュージョン」 Fyūjon) instead of the Japanese Yūgō (「ゆうごう」). Additionally, the primary method of Fusion Summoning is through the Spell Card "Fusion" instead of the usual "Polymerization", with "Polymerization" serving as a Legend Card.
    • Some Fusion Monsters have new Types not present in the TCG/OCG, presented as "fusions" of the Types of their Fusion Materials. These Fusion Monsters can have Multi-Choice Effects, allowing the player to choose between one of two bulleted effects (●) that have the same activation requirement.
  • Flip Summon does not exist, with imported OCG cards that mention them (such as "Trap Hole") having the term retroactively removed from their card texts.
  • Monster effects on the field can be activated only once per turn while face-up on the field,[5] similar to a card in the TCG/OCG stating "Once per turn". This also applies to Multi-Choice Effects.
  • Card effects list activation conditions and costs on a separate line (indicated by "[REQUIREMENT]") from the rest of the effect for easier understanding.
  • A card's [REQUIREMENT] and [EFFECT] are treated as being resolved simultaneously. If either the [REQUIREMENT] or [EFFECT] of the last used card meets the activation requirement of a Trap Card, that Trap can be activated without missing the timing.
    • Summoning conditions as well as Fusion Materials are listed above [REQUIREMENT] and [EFFECT].
    • There are three types of monster effects; basic Effects, Continuous Effects, and Multi-Choice Effects; the type of monster effect is indicated by the card text. The basic Effects and Multi-Choice Effects function like Ignition Effects in the TCG/OCG.
  • Chains do not occur. If two or more Trap Cards meet activation requirements, only one can be activated. The non-turn player chooses first whether or not to activate a Trap Card. If they do not, the turn player can then choose whether or not to activate a Trap Card.
  • Phases progress in the following order: Draw Phase, Main Phase, Battle Phase, End Phase. (There is no Standby Phase or Main Phase 2.)[5]
  • Tributing is exclusive to Tribute Summon, with imported OCG cards that mention them (such as "Cannon Soldier") having the term retroactively replaced with Sending from the field to the Graveyard in their card texts.
  • Discarding does not exist, with imported OCG cards that mention them (such as "Tribute to The Doomed") having the term retroactively replaced with send from the hand to the Graveyard in their card texts.
  • Quick-Play Spell Cards do not exist, all Quick-Play Spell Cards from the OCG (such as "Silver's Cry") are imported as Normal Spell Cards.
  • ? and ATK/DEF with 50 do not exist, as such, cards imported from the OCG that have ? (such as "Maju Garzett having its ATK 0 instead, while cards with ATK/DEF with 50 instead receiving retrains with more 50 ATK/DEF or different values.
  • Halving does not exist, the first imported card from the OCG to mention this "Time Wizard" has its effect damage using the ATK of all destroyed monsters instead of halved when the coin called wrong. However, doubling still exists.
  • Some cards are specifically marked as Legend Cards. A Deck can contain a maximum of 1 Legend Card of each card type (Monster, Spell, and Trap).[6][7] A player's Side Deck can contain any number of Legend Cards.[8]

Similarities to the OCG include:

  • Players can include 40-60 cards in the Main Deck, 0-15 in the Extra Deck, and 0-15 in the Side Deck. They can use up to 3 copies of each card, with the exception of Legend Cards and cards on the Forbidden/Limited List.
  • Players start with 8000 LP.

Card layout

Rush Duel cards use a new layout intended to be simple to understand and visually appealing. Differences between Rush Duel card layout to the OCG/TCG include:

  • Art frames and effect text boxes are significantly larger.
  • The Level value is altered to display a number over the Level star graphic.
  • The Level value, alongside the ATK and DEF values, are moved above the Type line, slightly covering the bottom part of the card artwork.
  • On Spell and Trap Cards, the card type line is moved below the card artwork, where the Type line is located on a Monster Card.
  • The cards have the phrase "RUSH DUEL" printed at their base.

Legal cards

Similar to the TCG's Speed Duel format, only cards produced for Yu-Gi-Oh! Rush Duel products are legal in Rush Duels.[9] Unlike Speed Duel cards, which can be used in the standard TCG, Rush Duel cards are not legal for use in the standard OCG.

Sets

As Rush Duels are treated as a different card game, Yu-Gi-Oh! Rush Duel products run in a separate product line to Yu-Gi-Oh! Official Card Game products. The first sets released for Rush Duel were Starter Deck Yuga - Cut Through! Sevens Road!! and Starter Deck Luke - Explosive Supremacy! Dragias!!, which could also both be purchased in one set.

The following sets contain cards that can be used in Rush Duels:

In the anime

In Yu-Gi-Oh! SEVENS, Rush Duels were created by main protagonist Yuga Ohdo as an alternative format that anyone can enjoy, in contrast to the "rigid" Duels run by adults.[10]

In Yu-Gi-Oh! GO RUSH!!, Rush Duel is a card game created by the Goha Company and originating from Earth, whose existence spread into the depths of space and became a legend among the people of the Velgear Star Cluster. Main protagonist Yudias Velgear believes that this "Rush Duel" would be the way for his war-torn people to finally achieve peace. It is eventually revealed that the game was recreated by Yuga, having travelled in time after his Duel with Otes, while The Creator, Otes' Earthdamar, was sent back even further and spread legends of Rush Dueling among the Velgearians.[11]

In the manga

The one-shot manga Let's Do It! Rush Duel!! features a Rush Duel between Yuga Ohdo and Tatsuhisa Kamijo.

The serialized manga Yu-Gi-Oh! SEVENS Luke! Explosive Supremacy Legend!! features Tatsuhisa Kamijo (also known as Luke) as its protagonist, in contrast to the anime. In the manga, Luke Duels various opponents with Rush Duel, aiming to become the King of Duels.

The serialized manga Yu-Gi-Oh! Rush Duel LP features various Rush Duels. In a similar vein to Yu-Gi-Oh! D Team ZEXAL and Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG Structures, the manga series focused on presenting the game strictly as it was played in real life, often using newly released or upcoming cards.

The serialized manga Yu-Gi-Oh! GO RUSH!! uses the Rush Duel format. Yudias Velgear believes that the non-violent nature of the Rush Duel card game would be the way for people to finally be able to end conflicts without bloodshed.
