Provenance

Where it came from

Pre-Preparation of Rites was originally introduced to the Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game in 2016 as part of the Shining Victories expansion. The card was designed to support Ritual Summoning strategies by allowing players to search their deck for both a specific Ritual Spell and the corresponding Ritual Monster, effectively streamlining a summoning process that was traditionally resource-heavy. Its release was met with enthusiasm by competitive players for its efficiency, as it provided consistent card advantage and utility for decks centered around classic archetypes.

The version from the Speed Duel: Battle City Box, numbered SBCB-EN121, represents a reprint adapted for the Speed Duel format. While the artwork and core mechanics remain consistent with the original printing, this release was intended to provide accessible support for players participating in the Speed Duel ecosystem. The set itself was designed to emulate the atmosphere of the Battle City tournament from the original animated series, offering a curated selection of cards that balance nostalgic appeal with functional gameplay for the format.
