Yu-Gi-Oh! Tournaments Stir Cards and Community Fun
Castle Perilous owner Scott Thorne notes Tuesday tournaments attract mostly male players ages 10 to 35 with competitive yet good natured play. Players discuss decks and brag about cards like Raiza the Storm Monarch while trading and sharing deck building tips. Card values range from 10 to 15 dollars for basics and up to 100 dollars for rare power cards. Participants say the game teaches math, strategy, and social interaction, and many are generous to beginners.
