Attention Duelists,

Due to a manufacturing error, EN boosters of Chaos Origins in Europe, Middle East, Africa & Oceania feature an erroneous version of ""The Chaotic Phantasmal Sacred Beasts"", named ""The Chaotic Sacred Beasts"".

If affected, you will be able to replace your copy of the card by contacting Konami Customer Service at https://t.co/pvgL9fDK1K or speaking to Customer Service at one of our upcoming Tier 3 events, including the European WCQ.

For more information, see here: https://t.co/RKUazY0jwa

Okay some Glorious Gallery info I got from opening 3 cases of NA product.

Each case had

3 Ultra Rare Overframe
3 Random Starlight Rares

Last time the cases were 1 Ultra OVF and 1 Starlight OVF per case.

If there are 20+ cards that are potential Starlights this set, this means Starlight OVF cards are going to be worth A BILLION times more.

This is important, but what’s more important that I noticed was this;

ALL 3 cases, whenever a box had a Starlight, that box ALSO had an OVF. No Starlight or OVF were pulled in separate boxes. It was ALWAYS the same box.

Sweden is committing more than €100 million to a sweeping classroom overhaul: replacing tablets and screens with traditional printed textbooks to help reverse falling student performance and sharpen focus.

After more than a decade of embracing digital-first education, Swedish authorities are now pivoting back to paper-based learning. Official data and recent studies cited by the Ministry of Education show that prolonged screen use in class has been linked to shorter attention spans, weaker reading comprehension, and reduced critical-thinking abilities.

Research consistently finds that reading on illuminated screens requires greater mental effort and invites more distractions compared to the calm, linear experience of physical books—factors believed to have contributed to declining academic outcomes in recent years.

Under the new plan, every student will receive printed textbooks for all core subjects, restoring books as the central learning tool. Digital devices and online resources will remain available as supportive tools, but they will no longer dominate daily instruction.

This bold €100+ million investment signals Sweden’s leadership in rethinking the role of technology in education. It underscores a broader, growing recognition worldwide: while screens provide speed and access, the hands-on, distraction-free engagement of physical books supports deeper concentration, stronger memory retention, and more effective long-term learning.

By choosing paper over pixels, Sweden is charting a path toward a more balanced, evidence-informed classroom future—one that puts proven pedagogical principles ahead of unchecked digital trends.

It came to my attention that the White House used my voice to encourage violence in Iran. Doing so tacitly implicates Kazuki Takahashi’s most beloved contribution, which continues to inspire people to become who they are, and this was presented in a way far removed from the story he was telling. Takahashi died saving others.

Yu-Gi-Oh! is universal, not political. It is disrespectful to present it in any other way.

The upcoming release of Legendary Modern Decks 2026 in Europe, Africa, the Middle East, and Oceania (all languages) had a production error that resulted in 4 copies of the same card in Decks (making the Decks illegal for use), therefore, we are recalling the product to be corrected. A new release date will be announced as soon as possible.

We’re actively considering the impact on competitive play as we work toward the best possible timing, and we'll do what we can to provide you with more information as soon as we are able.
