FAQ:

Q: Can you use OCG cards in the tournament?

A: Yes — with a few conditions depending on how your deck is sleeved:
 • Extra Deck: No restriction — OCG cards are fine regardless of sleeving.
 • Single-sleeved decks: Main Deck and Side Deck must be entirely OCG (no mixing OCG/TCG).
 • Double-sleeved decks: OCG and TCG cards can be mixed in the Main/Side Deck, as long as no cards are marked (i.e., the double sleeving must fully conceal any difference between the two).
