Add cards to your deck with a single tap, and change the amount or remove the card with another tap. TEST YOUR DECKS You can test your decks on the fully-featured Test Field. It has all the field slots as well as tokens, counters, coin, dice, and handy shortcuts for Pot of Avarice, Desires, Duality, and Extravagance. The drag-and-drop interface is easy to use, so you can practice your combos and learn new strategies the same way you would test-draw with your real-life deck. SHARE YOUR DECKS You can share your decks as clickable links that will open Yugipedia and import the deck. You can also share a text deck list for easy viewing.
