Kaiba runs a Power Deck, focusing on a Beatdown strategy featuring vicious-looking monsters, most of them being Fiend-Type and of the DARK Attribute. In later arcs, the Deck includes cards that give it the traits of a Virus Control Deck, and then a Swarm Deck. As his Decks evolve, he switches his focus from Fiend-Type monsters to Warriors and Dragons, while continuing to summon his signature card, "Blue-Eyes White Dragon".

During Duelist Kingdom, he utilized various brutal appearing monsters to reflect his personality.

Notably, his signature card (through all seasons of the anime and manga) is the "Blue Eyes White Dragon".

In Battle City, Kaiba's Deck takes on several traits of a Virus Deck, which focuses on removing cards from his opponents' Decks and leaving them with limited options. One of the main strategies in this Deck includes using "Crush Card Virus" and "Virus Cannon" to mill his opponents' Decks, while also attempting to Summon "Obelisk the Tormentor" for the finishing blow. During the Battle City Finals, he also introduced the "XYZ" monsters, and in later episodes, his Deck becomes more focused on removing his monsters from play and swarming the Field with those same monsters.

Deck

Lector 108-109 Win
Noah Kaiba 114-119 Lose (Duel continued by Yami Yugi)

The Virtual World Deck is very similar to Kaiba's Battle City Deck, though with more emphasis on Dragon-Type monsters.

Deck

Record
Opponent(s) Episode(s) Outcome(s)
Zigfried von Schroeder 194-195 Win

Kaiba duels once in this arc as well, against Yami Bakura, but the duel is not finished because his opponent leaves in the middle of it. Kaiba uses cards from previous arcs while he's in Ancient Egypt to protect himself and others from harm.
