Duel[edit]
Starting at 1st level, anything involving battle will have you use your Duel Disk and Duel Deck. You are considered proficient when using these items.
When entering a battle, you go into your Duel Mode. You draw your starting hand (5 cards from your Main Deck. However, having more than 6 cards in hand at the end of your turn will require you to discard cards of your choice until you have 6 cards in hand.) and can Normal Summon 1 Level 1-4 monster without tribute per turn as a bonus action, and spend attack actions to normal summon more monsters. Every start of your turn, as a free action, you must draw 1 card. You can only Normal Summon 1 monster per turn (unless by using a spell or trap card that says otherwise.) and can control said monster at will without concentration. When you would Summon a monster, treat it as a friendly NPC with the following:
1. Lv/Rank 1-2 monsters have an AC of 12.
2. Lv/Rank 3-4 monsters have an AC of 14.
3. Lv/Rank 5-6 monsters have an AC of 18.
4. Lv/Rank 7-8 monsters have an AC of 22.
5. Lv/Rank 9-11 monsters have an AC of 25.
6. Lv/Rank 12 monsters have an AC of 28.
XYZ monsters get an extra 2 AC, Synchro monsters gain a +2 to saves, Fusion Monsters gain a +2 to attack rolls, Link monsters attack first and Pendulum monsters get 10 more HP per rank.
All monsters have 10 in all their stats + their monster level, they can get their stats above 20 with this.
All monsters have 15 hp per rank.
You use your attack action for your cards attack, the attack roll is 1d20+your wisdom modifier+the monsters level. Every 100 attack power on the card is a d4. When a summon is killed by battle you lose 1 HP.
