Where it came from
Compulsory Evacuation Device was originally introduced in the early 2000s as a versatile staple of the Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game. Its design reflects the fundamental mechanics of the game, offering players a simple yet effective method of disrupting an opponent's strategy by returning a monster on the field to the hand. Over the years, the card has seen numerous printings across various sets, serving as a reliable utility tool for both casual and competitive duelists.
The YS17-EN038 version was released in 2017 as part of the Starter Deck: Link Strike. This deck was specifically designed to introduce players to the new Link Summoning mechanics and the updated game board layout that accompanied the release of the Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS anime series. Including this card in the deck provided new players with a proven, essential defensive tool to navigate the transition into the modern era of the game.
