With the Wing Raiders booster set, Duelists can power up their Xyz strategies, like Raidraptors, with new powerful cards like Raidraptor – Satellite Cannon Falcon, an Xyz Monster that devastates your opponent’s Spell & Trap cards and uses the power of fallen Raidraptors to sap the power of an opponent’s monsters!. Duelists can also try their hand at commanding two new monster themes that’ll take their Xyz strategies to the next level – the spectral Phantom Knights and the Super Quantum mecha pilots! The Wing Raiders booster set contains 60 cards; each 9-card pack is $3.99 MSRP.

Important news regarding the Forbidden & Limited Cards

Konami to implement a new idea called the Adjusted List.

Here’s some important news regarding the Forbidden & Limited Cards List used for high-level tournaments!

Konami constantly monitors the Decks and cards used at sanctioned events of all levels, from the Yu-Gi-Oh! Championship Series all the way down to local tournaments. Some cards and Decks are always doing better than others, and that’s okay. But we need to make sure that no Deck becomes so powerful that it drowns out the others, because you, the Duelists, have always told us that you like to have a wide variety of Decks show up at your tournaments.

So what they’re going to do is implement a new idea called the Adjusted List. The Adjusted List places additional restrictions on certain cards, but only for certain sanctioned events.
