A player's '''hand''' (Japanese: {{Ruby|手|て}}{{ruby|札|ふだ}} ''Tefuda'') refers to the cards each player holds that have not yet been played. Cards that are drawn are placed in the hand, although cards can be [[add a card|added]] to the hand in other ways. As the name suggests, such cards are generally held in a player's physical hand.

A player's '''hand''' (Japanese: {{Ruby|手|て}}{{ruby|札|ふだ}} ''Tefuda'') refers to the cards each player holds that have not yet been played, but that they added to the hand through any means. As the name suggests, such cards are generally held in a player's physical hand. From your hand, you can [[Normal Summon]] or [[Set]] [[Monster Card]]s, Set [[Trap Card]]s, and Set or [[activate]] [[Spell Card]]s.
  
From your hand, among other things: [[Monster Card]]s can be [[Normal Summon]]ed/[[Normal Set|Set]], [[Pendulum Monster]]s can be [[activate]]d in the [[Pendulum Zone]], [[Spell Card]]s can be activated, Spell/[[Trap Card]]s (except [[Field Spell Card]]s) can be [[Set]] in the [[Spell & Trap Zone]], and Field Spell Cards can be Set in the [[Field Zone]].
+
Any cards that you draw are added to your hand. The normal [[hand size limit]] is six, so during your [[End Phase]] if you have more than six cards in your hand, you must [[discard]] cards until you have six cards left. [[Hieroglyph Lithograph|Some]] [[Infinite Cards|cards]] are able to increase the hand size limit, while [[Enervating Mist|others]] [[Silent Wobby|can]] decrease it.
  
During your [[End Phase]], you must [[discard]] cards until you meet the [[hand size limit]] (normally six, but it can be changed by card effects).
+
Certain card effects can interact with cards in players' hands. For example, "[[Spirit Reaper]]" can [[discard]] 1 card from the opponent's hand as part of its effect, and "[[Exchange]]" allows you to swap one card from your hand with one card in your opponent's hand. Many card effects have [[cost]]s that require discarding a card(s) from your hand, such as "[[Raigeki Break]]", and you cannot activate such effects unless you have enough cards in your hand to [[pay]] the cost.
