Tiger Axe Format is a comprehensive custom Monster Card-only format, where your favorite Normal Monsters gain effects. It is played only with the cards designed specifically for it and TCG rules with alternations, most important of which are:
• Only cards specifically designed for Tiger Axe Format can be included in a Deck.
• Both players start the Duel with 6000 Life Points and a Deck constructed with exactly 20 cards, then draw 5 cards into their hand.
• The playing field is reduced to 3 columns of Monster Zones and Spell & Trap Zones. The Field Zone, Extra Monster Zone and Extra Deck Zone do not exist.
• Main Phase 2 cannot be conducted.
• Normal Summoning and Tribute Summoning is completely separate. Each player can conduct up to 1 of each during their Main Phase.
• While a player is performing a Tribute Summon, they can Tribute any card they control, not just monsters.
• Level 5 and higher monsters can be activated from hand as either Continuous Spell or Trap cards to have an effect while in the Spell & Trap Zone, according to their effect text.
• Every card has two Numbered Effects. In case of optional ones, each can be activated only once in a turn among all copies of that effect on every of that player's cards. This does not apply for mandatory, Continuous Effects or the part of the effect that activates a Monster Card as a Continuous Spell/Trap Card from hand.
