Editing Terrain

'''Terrain''' is a mechanic in which gameplay on [[Zone]]s of the [[field]] is affected by the area of land they cover, usually by granting a [[Field Power Bonus]]. In the manga and anime this concept was used during the [[Duelist Kingdom]] tournament. In is also used in some video games. This concept is not used in the ''OCG''/''TCG'', although a number of [[Field Spell Card]]s are based on it.

In ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! Forbidden Memories]]'', Field Spell Cards create terrains that increase or decrease a monster's [[ATK]] and [[DEF]] by 500. Depending on the location, a terrain may already be in place.

''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! The Duelists of the Roses]]'' is played on a grid, with each tile having its own terrain. It offers a [[Yu-Gi-Oh! The Duelists of the Roses Gameplay#Terrain|Terrain Bonus]] to certain types, which increases their ATK/DEF and allows them to move up to 2 spaces.

==Cards which affect terrains==
Field Spell Cards can change the terrain in video games that use this mechanic. In the manga and anime, Field Spells had not been introduced at this point.

In the anime and manga, the following cards were shown to affect the terrain:
* The fireball attack from "[[Winged Dragon, Guardian of the Fortress 1|Winged Dragon, Guardian of the Fortress #1]]" is able to light up the [[Night]] field for a second, making the opponent's DARK monsters visible.

* "[[Swords of Revealing Light]]" can completely light-up the Night terrain, revealing the opponent's monsters.

* "[[Burning Land]]" can be used in conjunction with "[[Curse of Dragon]]" to burn away certain terrains.

* "[[Full Moon]]"/"[[Mystical Moon]]" can raise tide levels, causing the Ocean terrain to spread to more Zones. Destroying "Full Moon"/"Mystical Moon" causes them to drastically drop.

* "[[Shadow Ghoul]]" could be [[Fusion Summon|fused]] with the Labyrinth terrain to create "[[Wall Shadow]]". "Wall Shadow" could move through the walls and more spaces than its Level. The Labyrinth remains intact when "Wall Shadow" is destroyed.

* "[[Magical Labyrinth]]" can be used to rearrange the walls of the Labyrinth.

* "[[Dungeon Worm]]" can tunnel under the "Labyrinth".

In ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! The Duelists of the Roses]]'' the following cards affect terrains:
* "[[Labyrinth Tank (DOR)|Labyrinth Tank]]" and "[[Dungeon Worm (DOR)|Dungeon Worm]]" can move on Labyrinth squares. "[[Shadow Ghoul (DOR)|Shadow Ghoul]]" can also move on Labyrinth squares, and will transform into "[[Wall Shadow (DOR)|Wall Shadow]]" when it does.
* "[[Barrel Rock (DOR)|Barrel Rock]]" and "[[Dharma Cannon (DOR)|Dharma Cannon]]" can enter Labyrinth spaces and will turn that space into normal terrain when they do.

In ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! Dark Duel Stories]]'' the following cards affect terrains:
* "[[Giant Soldier of Stone]]" can destroy any Field.

==In the Toei anime==
The [[Yu-Gi-Oh! (Toei anime)|Toei anime]] uses a field similar to the Duelist Kingdom.
