Can you use Japanese and English cards in one Yugioh Deck?

I am a big fan of yugioh and have a lot of good Japanese cards. I live in the USA and was wondering if you could use them in tournaments.

Can you use Japanese and English cards in one Yugioh Deck?
No. The US and pretty much every other country(except Japan and a few Asian countries) has their YGO cards printed by Upper Deck Entertainment. UDE has its own technique for making the cards and OCG cards(i.e. Japanese cards) look different when compared with an UDE made YGO card. Because of this(and the delay in release) UDE does not allow any non-UDE printed cards to be used in tournaments. Even if Japanese cards were allowed, you'd only be able to use cards that were released by UDE already. The Japanese can use any UDE made cards...except the TCG exclusive cards like Allure of Darkness until they're released in the OCG.
Reply:Sadly you can't. I just Perfected my Virus Control Deck but majority of the cards were jap so yea.


I believe the 2 main reasons why you can't use jap cards in tournaments is becuase


1. They are extremely cheap! Cheap meaning unfair. In TCG (english) to get a Crush Card Virus is nealry impossible. The only 3 ways to get it are to have participated in Shonnen Jump Tournament, buy it as a single for around $300 or to buy endless packs of yugioh gold till you get it. In OCG (japanese) it is available in Premium Pack 4 (limited edition pack), from a Video game or one of 3 structure decks as a common. The structures are Cruse of Darkness, Kaiba and Kaiba Volume 2.





2. Players can just make up the meanings of the card and if that is the case then an english copy of the card must be provided.





I wish we could use Japanese cards! Owell.
