The center of the disk includes the [[Main Deck]] and [[Graveyard]] slot and [[Life Points|Life Point]] counter. The bottom part of the disk, which goes around the user's arm, also contains a retractable cable that could be attached to [[Dueling Arena]]s if one player opted not to use a Duel Disk. |

The [[Academy Duel Disk]] can hold 65 cards in total. While most players stick to the minimum, there are those who use bigger Decks and cannot use the duel disk.

*The [[Life Points]] counter can only go up to 9990 life points. While both players start with 8000, 4000 or 2000, it could rise to 9000 or 10,000+ Life Points due to card effects. The reason for the zero at the end is because while there are four buttons on the disk, only 3 of them change the counter, the last one lights up the display. This also serves the problem that some cards can cause the [[Life Points]] in the ones place to be a number different than zero. | *The [[Life Points]] counter can only go up to 9990 life points.

In the anime, the [[Graveyard]] is locked over the Deck and the two field parts are retracted into the main part of the disk. When triggered, the field parts and graveyard are unlocked and the central piece rotates the graveyard and field into play position. The toy however does not have a rotating center and the two halves of the field aren't locked in closer to the central piece. When the player triggers the toy into play mode, the smaller half of the field, which is spring loaded, is released from it's lock at the same time as the larger half which has a weaker spring, and thus, the smaller part pushes the larger part into play position. |
