First Turn Kill

A First Turn Kill is similar to a One Turn Kill, but this is pulled off in a player's first turn, even the first turn of the Duel. Chaos Emperor Dragon - Envoy of the End was capable of this when it was legal if you had the right cards to go with it such as Graceful Charity and Card Destruction. It is also possible to win on your first turn by obtaining all five "Forbidden One" pieces during your first draw phase, but this is unlikely to happen.

Other "First Turn Kill" decks are the "Magical Scientist First Turn Kill" and the "Dark Magician of Chaos First Turn Kill". The "Magical Scientist First Turn Kill" deck consist of mainly Spell Cards that utilize the summoning of Catapult Turtle and Magical Scientist. "Dark Magician of Chaos First Turn Kill" abuses Dimension Fusion, Spell Economics and possibly Toon Cannon Soldier, Cannon Soldier, Catapult Turtle or Mass Driver. The "Magical Scientist First Turn Kill" no longer exists in the Advanced Format as "Magical Scientist" is Forbidden, and the same goes for "Dark Magician of Chaos".

New "First Turn Kill" and "One Turn Kill" decks are available after the release of Cyber Valley in the booster Phantom Darkness.

The recent releases of "Quillbolt Hedgehog" and "Plaguespreader Zombie" also led to the construction of special FTK and OTK decks revolving around their effects.
