Sick of Link and Pendulum Monsters ruining good old fashioned Yu-Gi-Oh? Enjoying deckbuilding with unique constraints? Do we have the format for you!
The Genesys rules are simple:
-
-
No Link Monsters or Pendulum Monsters are allowed. All other cards are allowed. The original field layout is used, with no Extra Monster Zones nor Pendulum Zones.
-
The standard Forbidden & Limited Cards list is not used. All those cards can be used, except Link Monsters and Pendulum Monsters. Usual limit of 3 copies max of any card still applies.
-
Deck construction uses a point system. Some cards are assigned a point value; most cards cost zero points. The total point cost of cards in your Main Deck, Extra Deck, and Side Deck (combined) cannot exceed the point cap for that event.
-
The standard point cap is 100, but events can be run with any point cap, or even a zero-point cap! Official Tournament Stores can set their own caps for their tournaments.
All players will be expected to understand the rules of Yu-Gi-Oh! and present a tournament legal deck that correctly follows the Points list below
