Are Starter Deck Yugi Reloaded and Starter Deck Kaiba Reloaded balanced against each other?
The starter decks are well, starter decks.  I have both of the decks mentioned.  They play OK, and are fairly balanced against each other.  However, they brick often and have a hard time getting started.  They are starter decks, and are a good introduction to the game.  They do not play like a good competitive deck.  If you want to check out the game, it is a good investment.  However, you will find the game is more enjoyable by collecting additional cards.

Also, please note, there is at least one tournament forbidden card, and several restricted cards in those sets.
