What are Yu-Gi-Oh! Speed Duels?
Speed Dueling is similar to the Yu-Gi-Oh! mobile game Duel Links, but in real life, with smaller decks & fields, half the Life Points, character-based skills and a custom card pool. Speed Duels are super affordable and you’re building a deck from a much smaller card pool compared to the Advanced Format. There is also currently no Forbidden or Limited list, meaning you can play every card in the pool!

Especially if they’re intimidated by the pressure of building decks and learning the meta.

It’s also incredibly good value for money, with everything that’s included in the box. Pick up one to try it out, or get your hands on three to make sure you have playsets of all the best cards.
