What is "Reveal"?

There will be points in a duel where you will have to show your opponent your hand or deck. Why?. for confirmation; ie. to make sure you aren't cheating. Now many of you I'm sure would NEVER cheat, but that's not the point.

You will need to reveal you hand if your opponent has to declare a card name in you hand.


Your opponent or you can easily say you have none of the cards declared, which is why a confirmation is required. Check your hands for all copies and then tell them you no longer need to see.

You'll need to reveal you deck when you declare you have no targets in the deck to add or special summon. This will only be required for cards that are mandatory (does not include "can").


If you or your opponent declares that there is no monster searchable, the opposing side is required to check the opponent's deck for any targets for clarity.
You are also required to reveal the card you added to your hand to validate to your opponent that it is a possible target.


• While you search your opponent's hand/deck it is not fair for you to take notes of his /her cards.

• You are not required to reveal your hand after you opponent "randomly selects a card" in your hand.

• You are not required to reveal if searching a card is not required. (ex. Masked Dragon)

• • If you declare a card name by Mind Crush or remove a card by Chain Destruction/Disappearance and the opponent sends from his/her deck/hand the maximum amount, (by public knowledge of the banlist and maximum copies of cards) no revealing is required.

If I miss anything or if you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reply. I will attended to it as soon as I can.

Mention how you do not need to reveal your hand/deck after you've already discarded the maximum number of cards you possibly can.

Eg. Discarding 1 Solemn Judgment when the maximum number you can possibly have is 1, or banishing 3 Quickdraw Synchrons from Chain Disappearance.

Alright, I'll be sure to write that.

Good stuff. Keep it up
