| Yu-Gi-Oh! Foil and Rare Cards |
  | Not all cards have the same rarity in the Yu-Gi-Oh! TRADING CARD GAME. Some of the coolest cards can be rarer and harder to find than others. Normally you can tell the rarity of a card by how much and what kind of foil there is on it. Sometimes the rarity of a card (based on the foil) might not give a perfect indication of how hard a card is to find. Some Ultra-Rare cards are included in Starter Decks or Structure Decks, so they're actually really easy to get. |
