CrabHelmet Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 Have them watch the first season of the anime. Then explain that the game is completely different, and teach them to actually play. For seriously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On topic, I'd start with explaining the 3 types of cards (monster, spell, and trap) and then the individual quirks with each of them (i.e. 1 summon per turn, tributing, etc for monsters. Cost/effect stuff with spells and traps, and having to wait a turn to activate a trap). Then I'd rig up a little test game. Give them a hand where they will draw into most of the situations explained (i.e. they draw battle ox, rush recklessly, trap hole, I dunno. There was a thing like this on one of the websites.) Then I'd go more in depth with card advantage and stuff, if they seem interested in going farther or deeper. What I found was really the hardest part is asking "What kind of deck do you want to build" and not suggesting meta crap. Good luck with your explaining.
