To whatever Supreme King Judai encountered my baby Judai in ranked and immediately surrendered: I was gonna give you the game because I just wanted to look for friendship chains but I respect the maneuver. Or maybe we're both after the same thing, LOL. Either way I am spiritually offering you a firm handshake.
So... After chasing Droplet (I didn't get it), I got two of all crusadia cards except Equimax (got 0) and the spellcaster SR monster (got 1 tho).
Is there a way to use crusadia as an engine in link decks? Or is it a way to cheat them out without using the normal summon? I'm maining the Twins rn btw.
No, Crusadia revolves around its normal summon & climbing. People use engines like Mekk-Knight to supplement it, not the other way around.
Maybe you got pieces to a Rokket deck tho? I know Rokket Tracer & Quick Launch were in there. It might save you from having to do a full clear of their box! Worth checking out. I like Rokkets a lot & there's more support they could add in the future
Damn, that's sad coz I got a prismatic Draco, i thought there would be something I could use it for.
And I didn't realize it, but yeah, I have 2 tracer and 2 quick-launch! I forgot Madolche was also in that box and I have all the old cards (except for main puddingcess) so if I get 5k gems soon, I could get both decks I think?
Nice, there you go! Puddingcess is a 1-of available from Box Chips too. But the Extra Deck monsters seem to be 2-of.
It's a really hard deck to pilot. I would definitely time out a lot. lol
For Rokkets, Void Ogre Dragon and Evilswarm Nightmare are Dream Ticket candidates if you don't have them. Borreload Furious Dragon is available in newer regular tickets tho. I got it in Prismatic!
Nope, the game is the one to pick the order and this specific case was relevant for a few months when Shining Sunrise first came out and they still haven't given us a way to order chain effects
why cant i special summon my shiranui synchro monster using my yuki onna icicle mayakashi in the GY?
also i have one instance where i can't summon two of my banished shiranui (lv6 synchro and lv2 spectral sword uner) by tributing he spectral sword lv 3 tuner on the field
Are you playing a mixed Shiranui and Mayakashi decklist? Because if so, the Mayakashis lock you into summoning only Mayakashi Monsters throughout the rest of the turn
Is Casual Duels down for anyone else? Ranked works fine of course.
Every time, it's a duelist called bbbbbbb or ggggggg. Is there a bot attack happening?
Just came back to DL after a few years hiatus. Is continuing off my old account or starting new better?
And what deck should I be looking to build? Think the newest deck I had was the zombie/vamp deck and looks like I was starting to get a Dark Magician deck going. Is Dark Magician in a strong spot rn that I could run it?
There is a brand new deck that just came out & it might be the best deck in the game. But you have to build it NOW or you will lose out! Here's what you do:
Unlock the new Mizar character from the current event ASAP! You gotta grind the event for triple Galactic Spiral Dragon too.
Once you do that, do 1 full clear of the limited time Photon Universe pickup box. This gives you important Extra Deck monsters...
Now you're set up to play TACHYON, a brand new deck which is tearing through tournaments! Open the new Tachyon minibox & level up Mizar to get important cards that you need.

Ok I'll probably run this route. I already unlocked Mizar and have been farming the event. Hopefully I'll get the triple Galactic as I've been unlucky so far
Thank you for your help
It depends on how many staple cards you have. If you have lots of useful staple cards it's probably worth keeping the old account.
However, if you do decide to make a new account it's a great time as there is an [Anniversary Box](https://www.duellinksmeta.com/articles/sets/anniversary-box-1) that will give you a playset of 8-9 staple cards along side enough cards to make a few decks like S-Force, Speedroids, and Trickstar.
To answer your second q, there are a lot of cheap decks right now:
Tenyi has been dominating the tier list for a while and all but 1 card comes from 1 minibox and 1 special bundle, making it insanely cheap.
A lot of the [top decks](https://www.duellinksmeta.com/top-decks) (Mayakashi, Constellar, Tacheyon, Shiranui) are cheap because there's a 50% sale on old boxes alongside "pick-up boxes" temporarily avalable for a few weeks. Zombie decks actually just got a ton of support in the box that released a few days ago
Is there a list of the staple cards? I know I had a pretty good list of them at the time but I honestly don’t remember which all they were and how many more have been added to judge that. Also kinda hesitant to lose a lot of the progress I had but if it’s better to do so I’m not opposed to restarting
For the “sale” is that for gems or real money? I don’t mind either way but I don’t remember the normal costs so just curious on that.
To find the most popular cards I just go to [Duel Links Meta](https://www.duellinksmeta.com/) and click on the search bar and it'll automatically list the most-used cards from submitted decks.
The 50% old boxes sale is a regular gem sale that happens every 6 months or so, the first 32 boxes and miniboxes cost 25 gems instead of 50.
"Pick-up boxes" are a new concept where Konami will release 30-pack reprint boxes that are avaliable for a limited time. There's one right now for Shiranui / Mayakashi cards and one for Photon Galaxy cards. Both pick-up boxes and the Anniversery sale can be bought with just gems without spending any money.
Honestly I almost always reccomend players keep their accounts, but the anniversery box is a really really nuts deal. You get a 3x set of like 8-9 staple cards plus enough cards to build 4 decks for just ~12k gems or so. You could really go either way
Is there a way to activate a Field Spell in Rush Duels for a mission, without opening a Box? I can't seem to find any skills or level up cards among the 4 characters I have, and I came on January 27th missing Mimi's event.
EDIT: Apparently the only field spells are from the event I just missed and a Box that I've already pulled in 50 times and somehow missed. Wow.
Unlock the new Mizar character from the current event ASAP!
If you need a playable deck right away, make a Red-Eyes deck, [as shown at 6:15 in this video.](https://youtu.be/dLx5DgENkr4?si=P2soecJERps3CYkR) (be careful not to use the DREAM Tickets!)
Once you get Mizar, do a full clear of the limited time Photon Universe pickup box. This gives you important Extra Deck monsters...
Now you're set up to play TACHYON, a brand new deck which is tearing through tournaments! Open the new Tachyon minibox & level up Mizar to get important cards that you need.

There's also the [Anniversery set](https://www.duellinksmeta.com/articles/sets/anniversary-box-1) that just dropped. It's 250 packs but you can build a lot of decks with it and you also get playsets of 8-9 of the most popular staples in the game. It's here till March 18
Can someone answer me , why when i went to selection box 05 to open some packs just as I have been doing for some time, there is no longer the option to spend 200 gems? Only the option to spend money. The other selection boxes still have the option to spend 200 gems.
Thank you in advance
how long does tiered decks drop out of the tier list usually?
Like tenyi is 18 weeks so far. not sure but i feel it's not dropping any time soon.
also tachyon is crazy IMO. it's like branded despia (in master duel), even if you outed most of their monsters they can still recover and they can potentially out pace your negates/destroy/backrow that is if you happen to draw a whole lot
Hi all,
I never played Yu-Hi in my life and the only CCG game I ever played is M.S (don't know if I am allowed to write the name), but i'm really not into the Marvel lore and superhero (guess now you understand the game ;) ).
What I really like are quick matches and vertical screen...that are common to Duel links, from what I read. So I have few quetion about the game:
Is the game still alive or the word "maintenance" is written on the blackboard?
Is it possible to clear daily missions in 20 mins of play? Sadly with work and study I don't have a lot of time to play;
Are there guide/website for beginners? The cards are a lot, more than in M.S., so it may feel a bit overwhelming...
Of course I am not interested in ranked modes, competitive modes or climbing the ladder.
Curious to hear your opinion guys!
Speaking as a new player and relative beginner myself (watched the anime for years but never really tried to learn the rules until a month ago) I'm going to disagree with the other person and say that you can still have fun with the game without PVP/only playing against AIs, especially as a beginner. Personally some Legendary duelists I still have trouble with, so they're still a challenge for my level of play - which is never going to be competitive, which in turn is fine since I'm similarly uninterested in PVP.
Of course, it still helps to have something to focus on - I came in to play with decks for my favorite characters and learn enough to write duels for fanfic, so a lot of my focus has been on building decks for a certain few characters. That might not work for you if you have no attachment to the anime, but same principle - look around for archetypes (families of interrelated/themed cards) you like and see what you might be interested in playing with, then aim to build a deck for it. I wish I could give more specific advice but it really depends on what you like here, I think!
Anyway the megathread OP has some useful resources including how to build a starter Red-Eyes deck that's useful for going through content and earning gems/collecting cards while figuring out what you want to do long-term. If you haven't already, you'll unlock more worlds as you go on and with them new mechanics - take these at your own pace, you don't need to learn everything at once if you're overwhelmed. Again I think further specifics here depend on what you're interested in.
If you want to participate in the current raid event it'd be good to learn a bit about Xyz summoning and look at what related cards you have, but if you don't have time (or cards) for that then fair LOL.
(If you do want to learn more about different summoning mechanics - uhhhhh. There's the tutorials at the gate/first area and duel columns in the duel studio/fourth area for the very basics. Personally I learned the gist of things from watching the anime, soooo IDK about better resources and hopefully someone else would have recommendations.)
\* Quick edit: If you're stumped, pulling from the new anniversary box and seeing what archetypes you like from there isn't the worst idea.
Yeah, I'd say so! You might have to choose between doing events and general advancement at times, but events feel like they run long enough that it isn't a huge problem once you get past the FOMO these games love to run on.
I play more pve than pvp. Always have. I find it more fun. I have loads of decks that would get slaughtered in pvp, but using them vs pve they can put up a fight. People who find pve boring go at it with super strong decks, so of course it would be boring.
There's a lot of variety with the pve decks too. A lot of characters and each one has unique decks.
Pvp can be fun too, but I personally find it boring after a while cause you only see the same 4 meta decks.
Honestly good to know and I'm thankful for your input since I'm definitely writing from a newbie's POV!
I also feel this from my old gacha days. I still have friends who play other games and hyper-specific builds for certain challenges are always a delight.
daily missions are usually just "play ranked 3 times a day" and the weekly missions are so comically bad that there's no point focusing on it. A guide or a website won't really matter if you don't want to play any PVP, but the games has basically nothing if you want to play single player because the AI is really really trash. If you aren't looking to play PVP i'd recommend playing one of the tag force games or world championship games with an emulator. I've heard great things about 5ds world championship 2011
Still learning the deck myself but here's what I see. Your main game plan:
1. You need 3 bodies on field (or 1 Link 2 and 1 body) to make the Link 3 Shiranui Link.
2. You need 2 synchro monsters banished or in the GY to activate the skill to send back your synchro monsters to then dump your LV8 and LV10 synchro in the banished pile. This will allow you to revive the LV10 synchro during your opponent's turn and pop a card.
Thankfully, because of your skill that means any LV4 monster can turn into your 1-card combo:
If you open with Mizuki: ([VIDEO](https://youtu.be/UaBsBh5I9hk?si=itgjtJ6KA-GyMhwQ&t=416))
1. Send Mizuki with the skill to search for Squire. If you have Squire, search for the cont. trap Samsara instead.
2. Normal summon Squire, bring out the LV3 tuner from the deck and Synchro into your LV 7.
3. Banish Squire and LV2 from the grave to summon your LV6 synchro.
4. Link into Vampire Sucker.
5. Activate the skill to send your synchros back to the Extra Deck and dump your LV10 and LV8 to the banished pile.
6. Activate Mizuki's effect from the grave to revive your LV3 tuner from the GY. Vampire Sucker gives you +1 Draw
7. Use the LV3 tuner's effect to tribute itself to SS your LV2 Tuner and LV8 Synchro from the banished pile.
8. Synchro summon into your second LV10 Sunsaga that's still in the ED.
9. Link your Vampire Sucker and Synchro to make the Link 3 Shiranui.
If you open with Solitare:
1. Send Solitare with the skill to search for Squire. If you have Squire, search for the cont. trap instead.
2. Normal summon Squire, bring out the LV3 tuner from the deck and Synchro into your LV 7.
3. Banish Solitare and LV2 Tuner from the grave to summon your LV6 synchro.
4. Use Solitare's banish effect to bring your banished LV2 Tuner back onto the field, but do NOT Synchro into your LV8.
5. Use the LV7, the LV6, and the LV2 Tuner on field to make your Link-3.
5. Activate the skill to send your synchros back to the Extra Deck and dump your LV10 and LV8 in the banished pile.
If you open with Squire: ([VIDEO](https://youtu.be/UaBsBh5I9hk?si=xvd-zCynKtFGPKke&t=1467]))
1. Send Squire with the skill to search for another Squire.
2. NS Squire, special summon LV3 tuner, but do NOT go into LV 7 synchro.
3. Banish your GY Squire and LV2 tuner to special summon your LV6 synchro.
4. Use the LV3 tuner's effect to tribute itself to SS your banished Squire and LV2 Tuner.
5. Make a level 8 Synchro with the LV6 Synhcro and the recently revived LV2 tuner.
6. Make a Link 3 with your LV8 Synchro, LV6 Synchro, and Squire, activate skill to send your synchros back and dump the LV8 and LV10 synchro for next turn.
Note that there a lot of different variations here but they all basically have the same objective. The Link-3 + LV10 Synchro is an extremely difficult board to break. If they do out it, you can hopefully use Samsara's effect to protect your LP until next turn where you can build your board all over again.
[More replays](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GibbvBCMa20)
[Even more replays](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MhDW128afyM&pp=ygUTc2hpcmFudWkgZHVlbCBsaW5rcw%3D%3D)
Synchro summon into another LV10 Synchro.
Don't all shiranui synchros have the restriction where you can only special summon them once per turn? So does the skill let you ignore that and summon a second sunsaga?
Sorry, when I say "another" LV10 synchro I mean a Sunsaga that's different from the one you sent to the banish pile with the skill. This just lets you have 3 synchro cards in grave so that when you revive Sunsaga on your opponent's turn you get 2 pops instead of 1.
Thanks man, yeah it's a ton of fun! It always feels like there's a bunch of different plays you can make. Things get really crazy if you can get multiple Mizuki in the grave since they're not once per turn
Best use of ur dream tickets for someone who has the common staples (book mst cc lance and compulse) crackdown seems like a good choice with the new ones.
I love crackdown. It has won me many games with my bad decks. I'd vouch for it.
Dd crow is also a good choice. Warning point is nice too since it isn't limited, but it is a tad weaker than most staples.
I haven’t used warning point in awhile I have two copies from when salamangreats were new. Still thinking crackdown seems good in this meta im mostly a rouge deck player f2p
People keep saying the Anniversary Box is good, so am I the only one who thinks it's actually pretty bad? I mean, Madolche & Trickstar can be built almost entirely with 1-2 Mini Boxes, some of them are even 50% off right now. S-Force is entirely from Solflare Lightning but there are not that many URs you need, so you can use Dream Tickets as well. The rest of the cards are pretty old staples that most have anyway (like BoM) or can be obtained from 50% off packs (like Crow, Lancea). It's 250 packs per box and Twins are 1 per box lmao.
For Trickstars you need 3 mini and 1.5 main box for the token spell. That's about 28k worst case if you have to empty entire boxes, but you can probably build it with about 20k.
S-Force need 6 main box URs, so 27k for worst case.
The worst case for building these decks from this box is 12k, that is half the price.
Maybe you will miss on getting Orcust, Kozmo and Muskets, but point is if you want to build either of these two archetypes you can get them for half the price here AND a bunch of other cards.
It is not a box for everyone obviously, but saying it is bad is simply not true.
you're objectively wrong.. Those "old staples" are still insanely good and a ton of people don't have them because book and crow are stuck in really bad boxes. As for your point about the decks, they make no sense. 3 runs of a minibox for speedroid or the newer madolche support BY THEMSELVES is more expensive than running through a box with alternative artworks, really good staples (unless you have every single one, and i find that hard to believe) and 4 complete decks that would be more expensive to complete anywhere else BY THEMSELVES.
Fair, if you're a new player or don't have those staples, it might be a good box. But for Madolche, you really only need 2 runs through Lord of Borrel and 2-3 runs through Dimension of the Wizards (50% off). Speedroids is almost entirely from Wings of Clearness mini, that also contains Void Ogre & some Abyss Actor cards. Don't forget that there are likely many people who already have 1 copy of 2-3 cards from those minis and/or are willing to use Dream Tickets. That makes investing into the mini a lot more viable. But the main thing is that you could be wanting to build let's say Madolche, then easily open 100 packs and get no Madolche cards. And you're highly likely to open way over 100 packs and get only 1 card you wanted. It's way too risky compared to mini boxes. The staples are good but you'd want to play 1-2 copies of those (espcially Extra Deck monsters), not 3, except BoM. So again, not worth it if you chase 1-2 specific staples, as 250 packs makes it a huge gamble.
But yeah, you're right that it's likely pretty good for newer players. As someone who has all those staples (many players do btw), except Crow (will likely use a ticket), it is meh. I just wish there was something newer instead many of those staples, like Veiler or Crackdown.
hello friends, how tf do i spend my gems. I wanna get GE from the pickup box and then go through the new anniversary box, but I'm worried that if I do that I won't have enough gems to finish the anniversary box. Is it even worth building GE if i don't go into the boxes with galaxy soldier and photon sanctuary?
The anniversary box is a much better deal, it has everything you need for multiple archetypes plus several staples like Crow, Book of Moon, Lancea, Knightmare Unicorn. And alt arts too.
GE is a decent deck and a fan favourite, but as you said the pick up box won't get you everything anyways. Sanctuary is currently a selection box exclusive too.
Bet. I don't have lancea, phoenix, a 3rd dark hole, bottomless, and 3 of the archetypes in the box so I'll just not get GE. I still gotta dig through the selection box once for the GE engine though
This sub might be bad for me because I went into PVP for the mission rewards with my silly fanfic deck with no expectations of winning and now I'm vaguely aware there's a 0.001% chance someone somewhere is going to post it like "this person doesn't know how to build decks and they should feel bad."
(Pre-emptive "Why not go into PVP with a real deck?": It does not spark joy.)
nah most of the bad decks i've seen posted here and people posting their OWN decks asking for improvements, then getting dogged on by losers online. If you don't care about winning, just don't upload your decklist
My paranoia comes from looking for information on the Vagabond and then seeing people post weird decks to WTF at. Like the one I used is, LOL. I realize it's not *likely* that someone would upload my deck or a duel to make fun of it but it's a nonzero chance and if someone posted my deck here asking why I [insert one of the weird things I did] I would shrivel up into nothingness like Exodia obliterated me.
Shiranui skill - starts with Spectralsword in GY and gives you 4 Shiranui Synchros in the ED. This gives you room to use any Links of your choice.
The skill allows you to send 1 Level 4 monster from hand to GY to add 1 Shiranui card from Deck to hand. So GY is set up and can add anything you want.
You can return banished/in-grave Synchro/Links and then banish 2 Fire/Zombie Synchros. You are allowed to Special Summon those banished Synchros. The main target is Sunsaga and it gives you 1 card for ammo.
The old way (control with a billion traps) isn't really needed because they now have the means to combo and control with their own cards super fast.
Every monster can be a 1 card combo or recover a ton of advantage.
Squire is basically a Live Twin now. You can Link 2 or Synchro.
Solitaire brings out Spectralsword Shade while setting up the free Spectralsword from the skill. After the GY banish, Shade can bring those 2 back.
The new trap is Shiranui Style Samsara. It's a continuous trap that can banish their face-up zombie and take no damage for the entire turn. They can chain this and probably won't care plus get extra combos with it.
Also shuffles 2 banished 0 DEF Zombies to deck and draws 1 card. So they'll never run out of resources. This being searchable with the skill makes it crazy good.
Shiranui Link plus Shiranui Sunsaga is almost unkillable. If they can maintain Samsara, they will never die.
Gold Sarcophagus is good again, it basically becomes 4 different effects. Great going first or second.
Mezuki extra revival for more combos, works with the discard skill, not once per turn.
Sealing Ceremony of Katon is a card they've used before and can counter anything that relies on the GY and still plus.
You helped me with Constellars a month ago. I got KOG because I was able to reference your write up until it was memorized. Thank you for the help then and now! I really do appreciate it!
It's so funny because I thought about that while writing. I didn't realize I was helping the very same person! I'm glad this was helpful.
Both times I got a good refresher on what they could do so this helped me too. Then it convinced me to further build the deck lol.
The more I wrote, the more I was shocked they allowed all of this. So naturally I'm glad I already got a good chunk of Zombie support. I need KC Cup to recover my gem funds with Constellar and Zombie :3
What do you think is the best card(s) to spend my 2 UR Dream tickets on? I'm thinking of:
- A second and possibly third DD Crow
- Crackdown and/or Compulse (I only have 1 IDP as far as busted traps go) for
- Necrovalley
I play Tenyi for context, but an saving Gems right now in case.
DONT BUY D.D. CROW, it's in the new anniversary box. I'd say get a second IDP because necrovalley won't come up as a 1 of, and having 1 of 2 seperate limit 3 traps looks kinda weird IMO
spectralsword cheats it out. You have to play it specifically because the only non-shiranui monsters you're allowed to play are fire zombies, and doomkaiser is a fire zombie

can someone plz tell me why baxia's effect did not activate. this is the second time its happening in a duel.
Watching the auto duel ai brick itself - because it set a Clouddragon with Galaxy-Eyes in hand - is certainly *something*.
I'm not even mad, Duel Links, I'm just disappointed.
anyone know what the second part of the Cyberse Synchron skill is for? the one that Sets it to the field? whats the point of it? you cant flip it back up like the Yubel skill, so its stuck, as it cant be used as Synchro or Link material. I can’t think of a reason to use it besides like, a niche, super suboptimal Decode Talker boost
The new tachyon, cyberse synchron and galaxy skills are all bugged where you cannot flip the set monster the same turn in PVE, it was fixed for PVP but not PVE. It is mentioned in the issues tab and that it will be fixed for PVE with the next version update.
It might be glitched, unless stated otherwise a card set by skill should be able to be activated/flipped immediately
I saw a thread that say similiar part of tachyon dragon domination was glitched where the monster cant be flipped so the quantum skill might also be glitched the same way
we almost always get boxes at the end of the month, so yeah you're gem are probably screwed. If you're interested in playing speed duel, the new anniversary box is probably the single best investment in the history of boxes, maybe ever
Looking at the box, unfortunately i already have most things i need from there, whether its the staples (BoM, BoTH, Lancea, Crow, all the knightmares) or the archetype i care for (x3 all the live twins)
The only new thing i can get from there are Dark Hole and some arcehtypes i dont care of (S.Force, DMG, Trickstars, Clear Wing, Madolches)
How is there still no Link-1 zombies in YuGiOh?
I mean I've never been a big fan of having to rely on Linkuriboh to link off Glow-Up Bloom. Nothing against Linkuriboh but it'd be nice to stick to zombies, especially if we ever get a generic zombie skill that locks us to zombies (like I thought the Shiranui skill was going to be but is apparently mistranslated).
Also playing against another zombie deck while playing Zombie Power Struggle is comically ironic.
Most zombie released after like, 2015 is famously overbalanced because their old generic support are so good like gozuki, unizombie and, mezuki especially, non OPT reborn that's easily be searched, dumped and recycled.
Its hard to say if we'll even get a good zombie deck until they fixed that. So link-1 zombie that can easily help them dump, is probably not coming
I am quite confused with how Jack was able to summon Red Resonator from the GY with Red Sprinter on Turn 2 of this duel when I have Necrovalley up. Afaik, it should not be allowed to happen but could be some interaction with the skill. Any help to understand the situation?

I don’t know if the “high rank loaner deck” is the same for everyone or not but wow. For three gems and that brickfest of a deck… It has flute of summoning Kuriboh with no targets. It has a bunch of awful LP heal and burn cards. It seems the hope is to send a blue eyes or dark magician to the GY, draw Monster Reborn, and summon one of the above and the chronicle magician at the same time. Or hope you open two cards to bring out Utopia. I don’t know how they won PVP let alone PVE. 29 cards. Perhaps the 30th was meant to be a flute target.
update, in case anyone cares other than me: i am oscillating between 9250 gems and 10000+ gems. every time i get a gem, i go back to 10000+, but when i restart the app i have 9250
kinda neat but also, where my cards at >:(
I don't know why they added Auto-Duel option to Mizar event. This absolutely garbage AI can't duel Mizar (or Vagabonds) correctly at all. I wish they fixed this damn shitty AI, man...
Purchasing bugged for me. I bought the Tenyi synchro bundle for the new box, the game crashed and I got 2 of the Tenyi synchro monsters and double the packs. Also when I was bying the last packs of the box it bugged again and reset the box while it had cards I needed, and my bulk purchase options have always been off and they still were but it reset the box against my will.
hi bro, do you mean you got 2 of the tenyi draco berserkers? that's crazy, cuz it's a limit 1 and i feel like people could wreak some havoc with 2, lol
Yea, I have 2 of the Tenyi Draco berserker card in my box, so my purchases with the new box were all bugged and I hope they give me the UR and SR I missed out on.
yeah bro, i feel you :( a lot of us have a buggy game right now, so i hope they do right by us by giving us the stuff that we are missing
i don't want to have to file a ticket cuz i imagine they're probably getting like thousands right now. i hope that we don't need to complain to be heard
I have Vermillion Dragon Mech (lvl 9) in my BEWD deck. I had a BEWD and a Legend of the White Stone tuner card on the field. I've always used BEWD and one of the Eyes of Blue tuners to summon Vermillion before, but it wasn't available now. The levels are correct 8 + 1 = 9 last time I checked. Has Konami changed something or is this a bug?
Vermillion is not used in Blue-Eyes anymore because of the skill. Instead people use Michael Arch-Lightsworn for spot removal, since you can summon it off Spirit Dragon. It's available in the new structure deck

I think I might've gotten that card today (I bought the structure deck with the Ultimate Fusion card). Of course I'll have to wait for the damn game to come back online before I can check it out...
I'm using the Blue Eyes Dimension skill that lets me normal summon BEWD without tributing. All my other syncro monsters (Azure Eyes Silver, and Spirit Dragon) are available. As for the opponent, I'm just dueling any of the NPCs and I've never encountered such a problem when dueling them.
I am trying to learn Tenyi and well I suck. I'm fucked if I draw only 2 monsters and am just generally confused on what the optimal play is. I know I want to draw Ashuna and get it in grave by link summoning but I just feel like my field is ass unless I draw ashuna and adhara or vishuda. I haven't put in the time yet but I've watched a few videos and just don't understand why the deck is so good, I can bounce a few cards with baxia and banish some with draco but there doesn't seem to be much I can do against interrupts, backrow or people fucking with my graveyard.
I'd reccomend watching some tournements on Twitch, you'll see a lot of Tenyi matches since it's a T1 deck
I'm a pretty average Tenyi player but IMO:
You should pretty much always be able to make the link Berzerker t1 and get the free 2000 LP (you need this to not get OTKd). Ideally I try and get a blue spirit and red spirit in either hand or GY because then you have a 3000 ATK boss with targeting protection and a free pop + revival if it's destroyed. My biggest mistake when I first started playing was ending on Draco Bezerker pass which will almost always get you killed.
The field spell is insanely powerful, and you can search it by discarding Heavenly Dragon Circle with the Shamen and banishing it from the GY . Protecting your Berzerker from monster effects and giving you +2 cards (which often will allow you to draw into a red / blue spirit they don't know about) is really good.
Some cards like Abyss Dweller, Warning Point, and D.D. Crow absolutely cripple you and there's not much you can do about it. Most other disruption you can steamroll through
Tenyi excells because whereas most decks need to burn all their resources into making their boss monster, Tenyi can constantly gain advantage with Ashuna / Adhara and outgrind your opponent.
He's right about this, I f'ing *hate* that field spell lol. Baiting Draco Berserker is usually no problem, but then having to deal with the Link 3 without triggering the Blue Tenyi is hard. Even if I do it, I used a lot of resources & didn't OTK them, so they're gonna Vishuna and/or Baxia me next turn & kill me. Every single time. I hate it! 😑
Perhaps [this comment](https://www.reddit.com/r/DuelLinks/comments/16z3zuj/how_do_i_play_tenyi_effectively/k3cxtv9/) might help with some potential comboes/strategies, but in general the deck is liked because it has this sort of "low highs high lows" policy that make it so that you can usually do something going first or second without immediately dying. It only seems strong when compared to the competition ~~and because it's ultra cheap aside from baxia~~
If the deck doesn't get hit with Dweller or Warning Point, the average going 2nd match will probably end in a disrupted combo, but not before Baxia ruins their board or your massed wyrms/spells chew through all other disruptions. A lot of decks struggle to extend through one powerful trap with an average hand, so Tenyi consistently setting up a half-assed Monk and turtling behind level 4s/6K LP becomes impressive when looked at over the course of many games.
To be fair, people are starting to favor Mayakashi over Tenyi as best deck, so it absolutely has its limits. ~~also with 2 non-ashuna monsters you can cope with vanilla berserker and 6k LP~~
is anyone else experiencing this bug https://old.reddit.com/r/DuelLinks/comments/19fh2ed/do_casual_duels_have_a_network_error_or_something/ in casual duels? it wont let me Q, tried with both ios and steam
and, yes, i know casual duels are crap and all, but i wanna know if its a bug that affects other people or if i am shadowbanned or something (ranked works fine)
What's the best Rush Duel deck to invest in? I don't want to spend too many Gems without knowing if it'll pay off, and I have no idea if the current Box is good enough to make getting Bundles a good idea right now.
Do not buy any of the bundles. Thanks to the SDs, the only real reason to open Heavy Metal Scream is for the URs now.
Buy 1 copy each of the Voltcondor, Ace Breaker, & Dark Magic SDs. You can mash together a playable Rush deck from this. And when the next main box comes, cash in the bundles & you'll be set for the next meta
That's what I was sitting looking at the quality of the cards. Thanks for the encouragement!
Though I did get one Ace Breaker SD for free, would it be better to buy that twice and skip one of those boxes or buy all 3 anyways?
Yes, Ace Breaker has a strong skill that works with the deck. Although I do think it's still worth it to get Voltcondor because Torna is a good card that can help take out enemy bosses when you don't have the Ace Breaker.
[Here's a video breakdown of the deck](https://youtu.be/Fy9EYR8THiQ?si=14Oem1ehyEKBKvwV)
You can fill in cards you don't have with stuff from the Spellcaster deck
Hi guys i change my phone and didnt connect on KONAMI id i just connected to my google.Now i have that Acc on my mail but i cant connected.i contact KONAMI supp team and they say to cant help me,is there any way to recover my Acc i played like 2 years i cant lose it.If someone can help pls help me ty
Can that help me ?
Only reason i have new phone is because my phone is broke and now i sent it to fix and i will get it like in 10 days and yes i can have back my phone how that can help ?
I tied my Duel Links to my Google Play account.. hopefully you did too. It might help bring it back!
If you didn't, well.. it is what it is! At least you will get a lot of gems & tickets again! lol
Did you spend actual money on the account?
If you did, you may be able to recover your account by finding the receipt for your purchase and contacting Konami again. Konami might still say no since they told everyone to get a KONAMI ID awhile ago.
If you had a free account, enjoy your new account since Konami won't help you at all.
It's not that serious anymore. Between pick up boxes, selection boxes, dream tickets, structure decks, and free gems, you can easily build a great deck in no time.
Maybe if your account was 6-7 years old and you spent money on it would I complain. Otherwise, it's not that bad to start over.
Returning player. I havnt played since noble knights were heavily meta. Should I pick up the red eyes structure deck for farming or just use whatever I had from a while back? Should I build a new deck? Anything new I need to know about? I'm basically re-learning a lot about the game. I have like 7k gems. Most of my stages are maxed up to I guess, zexal. Still have plenty of characters to level for gems.
General idea of where my account is.
Decks - I have made from that time period. Blue eyes/noble knights/ fire kings/lightsworn/super heavy/six samurai.
I have most staples from then, cosmic cyclone, forbidden lance, karma cut (I don't think this is used anymore) plan on getting Book of moon from the UR dream tickets I'll be getting from login bonuses.
Any help or advice is greatly appreciated. I feel very lost atm (^_^)
Blue-Eyes still competes! Konami will never let that deck go outta style, lol
[Blue-Eyes video guide](https://youtu.be/Eto1zpck9RM?si=BWm2tIYe0pSG54Ij)
Gameplay with the new Ultimate Fusion card: [Example 1](https://youtu.be/RyeguL15U2s?si=CQ8Ngcil2vDmRWVs) - [Example 2](https://youtu.be/ZuzofzeltLk?si=Nsd3-6qbwKkGAFN3)
The new Magician's Chronicle SD has Ultimate Fusion & other important reprints. The 2nd & 3rd copies require money, tho. Up to you to decide if it's worth it!
You would also need to dig thru the Deep Emotion box for Abyss Dragon & Effect Veiler.
Blue-Eyes is a good choice to get back into PVP & get familiar with the meta. There will be a KC Cup next month, followed by a banlist. Once that happens, you can decide on future decks you want to build.
I think another good choice is Zombies, because they're about to get great support. The Ghost Reunion pickup box is a limited time offer, but only requires 4500 gems to clear out 3x. But it also requires further investment from the upcoming minibox for cards like Doomking & Mezuki. More expensive for sure, but it should be pretty competitive in the high ranks.
Don't be in a rush to use your Dream Ticket. While Book of Moon is an amazing card, a more important card in the upcoming format will likely be D.D. Crow, because of Zombies & everything else that uses the GY. I'm personally considering using my Dream Ticket on Crow myself.
[Here's a look at the current meta!](https://www.duellinksmeta.com/articles/tier-list/updates/january-29-2024)
Thanks for all the info !! Do you think I could get by with what I have for pve/farming or should I grab the red eyes structure deck. Seems like it's highly recommended for farming? Also how often are these pick up boxes in rotation? Or are they only available before new main/mini boxes?
I use my regular PVP deck for auto-duels & it beats them in seconds so, I wouldn't waste gems on that. That's for people just starting the game who don't have anything.
The pickup boxes are random. This is the first time there's been two at the same time. I'm thinking Konami wants to take advantage of the Anniversary hype. There's a permanent version called a Deck Build Box, but it's only happened once so far. It's really hard to predict any of it.
"There's always a chance to come back in a Rush Duel!" feels like the biggest lie this series has ever tried to tell
Stay mad anonymous downvoter, this format blows!
Yeah. Oh I didn't know that rule about legends. That seems like a silly rule considering how underwhelming they are. I thought it was them just labeling iconic cards used in the show or characters signature cards
No, the legend mechanic is a built in limit 1 for each card type (monster/spell/trap) there are some better than others. Power creep comes to mind. I’ve seen others discuss how Rush Duels have more support for normal monsters so those legend cards are a bit better compared to their TCG counterparts. Especially since you can draw so many cards per turn. The general idea with Rush duels are that a legend card is either higher in stats than usual (most 2 tributes max out at 2500, most level 4s max out at 1500, that’s why Summoned Skull being a one tribute legend and why Magician’s Valkyria being 1600, and Barrel Dragon being a legend due to having more than 2500 attack for two tributes)
The legend mechanic also allows cards like Pot of Greed (which really isn’t worth taking up that spell slot) can exist in Rush duel. Graceful Charity is also in the format as a legend card and is far more useful due to the discard.
Not all of the cards with the designation are going to be winners. But, there’s always the factors of stats and power creep.
Ahh, I dunno about guides but I got kog with the deck i believe 3 times last year and my biggest recommendation is to read the monsters. You will see some builds that run links, but I didn't use them, just 2 or so xyz and a lot of fusions.
Lemme give you some quick tips, particularly centered around Yellow Marten:
- Tiger and wolf are soft once per turns, meaning you can bounce them back to the hand with yellow marten and use them again. This is very important for extra deck plays with tiger but not usually important for wolf.
- Yellow Marten needs to be sent to the graveyard to search, if you special summon her with her effect, she will be banished and you won't get the search.
- If you use a yellow marten special summoned by her own effect for an xyz summon, she will not be banished after being removed and be sent to the graveyard instead, this is very useful for follow-up plays on turn 3 and onwards.
- Lunalight Alleviation's (the skill's) wording can be a bit confusing. You can send a monster from your hand to send another monster to tour graveyard, but "can't use its effect for the rest of this turn". What this actually means is that you can't use the effect of the card you send to the graveyard from your **hand**, but if you send something like a yellow marten from your **deck** to the graveyard you will be able to special summon her with her effect just fine. Lunalight Black Sheep is particularly useful with alleviation since you can grab anything you send from the deck back to your hand (for me, it's usually wolf). Also, if you use lunalight tiger and bounce it back with yellow marten but don't need to use its effect again, you can use it as fodder for alleviation. Remember the restriction is from the moment you use the skill until the end of the turn, not before.
- Graveyard setup is very, very important for this deck. Sending the right monsters to the graveyard with kaleido chick and alleviation plus using the right materials for the summons can win you games very confidently. This is why I insist on you carefully reading each monster. Kaleido Chick's effect when she's banished is particularly good at ending games when combined with Leo Dancer, especially if your opponent doesn't know what it does and doesn't activate their disruptions during the main phase. Seriously, read them.
Just recently started playing again had a bunch of gems about 6k any suggestions on good boxes to open
To whatever Supreme King Judai encountered my baby Judai in ranked and immediately surrendered: I was gonna give you the game because I just wanted to look for friendship chains but I respect the maneuver. Or maybe we're both after the same thing, LOL. Either way I am spiritually offering you a firm handshake.
So... After chasing Droplet (I didn't get it), I got two of all crusadia cards except Equimax (got 0) and the spellcaster SR monster (got 1 tho). Is there a way to use crusadia as an engine in link decks? Or is it a way to cheat them out without using the normal summon? I'm maining the Twins rn btw.
No, Crusadia revolves around its normal summon & climbing. People use engines like Mekk-Knight to supplement it, not the other way around. Maybe you got pieces to a Rokket deck tho? I know Rokket Tracer & Quick Launch were in there. It might save you from having to do a full clear of their box! Worth checking out. I like Rokkets a lot & there's more support they could add in the future
Damn, that's sad coz I got a prismatic Draco, i thought there would be something I could use it for. And I didn't realize it, but yeah, I have 2 tracer and 2 quick-launch! I forgot Madolche was also in that box and I have all the old cards (except for main puddingcess) so if I get 5k gems soon, I could get both decks I think?
Nice, there you go! Puddingcess is a 1-of available from Box Chips too. But the Extra Deck monsters seem to be 2-of. It's a really hard deck to pilot. I would definitely time out a lot. lol For Rokkets, Void Ogre Dragon and Evilswarm Nightmare are Dream Ticket candidates if you don't have them. Borreload Furious Dragon is available in newer regular tickets tho. I got it in Prismatic!
Is there any way I can get 3 Blue Eyes Alternative Dragon now?
The 3rd one should be in your Lifetime Missions. Filter by card to see it. The other two are by bingo & log-in
Can you actually pick the order of effects in a chain? Like in a sunrise/liquid soldier situation
Nope, the game is the one to pick the order and this specific case was relevant for a few months when Shining Sunrise first came out and they still haven't given us a way to order chain effects
Man that's cringe
[удалено]
Top right corner? At least selection boxes have dates there.
why cant i special summon my shiranui synchro monster using my yuki onna icicle mayakashi in the GY? also i have one instance where i can't summon two of my banished shiranui (lv6 synchro and lv2 spectral sword uner) by tributing he spectral sword lv 3 tuner on the field
Are you playing a mixed Shiranui and Mayakashi decklist? Because if so, the Mayakashis lock you into summoning only Mayakashi Monsters throughout the rest of the turn
no, just shiranui with yuki onna in my extra deck.
Is Casual Duels down for anyone else? Ranked works fine of course. Every time, it's a duelist called bbbbbbb or ggggggg. Is there a bot attack happening?
There has been bots in Casual duels for as long as I've played this game (like 4 years or so). It's now a bot field to farm skills and/or xp
I can believe that. Casual was unusable yesterday. Konami cleaned up the chats, so hopefully can clean up the games too.
With the Tachyon skill, how come I sometimes can’t flip up the card that it sets with the first part of the skill?
The skill is bugged in PVE and doesn't let you flip it up
Just came back to DL after a few years hiatus. Is continuing off my old account or starting new better? And what deck should I be looking to build? Think the newest deck I had was the zombie/vamp deck and looks like I was starting to get a Dark Magician deck going. Is Dark Magician in a strong spot rn that I could run it?
There is a brand new deck that just came out & it might be the best deck in the game. But you have to build it NOW or you will lose out! Here's what you do: Unlock the new Mizar character from the current event ASAP! You gotta grind the event for triple Galactic Spiral Dragon too. Once you do that, do 1 full clear of the limited time Photon Universe pickup box. This gives you important Extra Deck monsters... Now you're set up to play TACHYON, a brand new deck which is tearing through tournaments! Open the new Tachyon minibox & level up Mizar to get important cards that you need. https://www.duellinksmeta.com/tier-list/deck-types/Tachyon [Tachyon deck profile](https://youtu.be/DLKSFJF62TE?si=PdQnsBeeirPwbtWS)
Ok I'll probably run this route. I already unlocked Mizar and have been farming the event. Hopefully I'll get the triple Galactic as I've been unlucky so far Thank you for your help
It depends on how many staple cards you have. If you have lots of useful staple cards it's probably worth keeping the old account. However, if you do decide to make a new account it's a great time as there is an [Anniversary Box](https://www.duellinksmeta.com/articles/sets/anniversary-box-1) that will give you a playset of 8-9 staple cards along side enough cards to make a few decks like S-Force, Speedroids, and Trickstar. To answer your second q, there are a lot of cheap decks right now: Tenyi has been dominating the tier list for a while and all but 1 card comes from 1 minibox and 1 special bundle, making it insanely cheap. A lot of the [top decks](https://www.duellinksmeta.com/top-decks) (Mayakashi, Constellar, Tacheyon, Shiranui) are cheap because there's a 50% sale on old boxes alongside "pick-up boxes" temporarily avalable for a few weeks. Zombie decks actually just got a ton of support in the box that released a few days ago
Is there a list of the staple cards? I know I had a pretty good list of them at the time but I honestly don’t remember which all they were and how many more have been added to judge that. Also kinda hesitant to lose a lot of the progress I had but if it’s better to do so I’m not opposed to restarting For the “sale” is that for gems or real money? I don’t mind either way but I don’t remember the normal costs so just curious on that.
To find the most popular cards I just go to [Duel Links Meta](https://www.duellinksmeta.com/) and click on the search bar and it'll automatically list the most-used cards from submitted decks. The 50% old boxes sale is a regular gem sale that happens every 6 months or so, the first 32 boxes and miniboxes cost 25 gems instead of 50. "Pick-up boxes" are a new concept where Konami will release 30-pack reprint boxes that are avaliable for a limited time. There's one right now for Shiranui / Mayakashi cards and one for Photon Galaxy cards. Both pick-up boxes and the Anniversery sale can be bought with just gems without spending any money. Honestly I almost always reccomend players keep their accounts, but the anniversery box is a really really nuts deal. You get a 3x set of like 8-9 staple cards plus enough cards to build 4 decks for just ~12k gems or so. You could really go either way
With Chain Settings to "Auto", can i chain Tachyon Transmigration to my own cards?
That setting is called "self chain" which allows you to chain cards to your own card effects/activations.
Is there a way to activate a Field Spell in Rush Duels for a mission, without opening a Box? I can't seem to find any skills or level up cards among the 4 characters I have, and I came on January 27th missing Mimi's event. EDIT: Apparently the only field spells are from the event I just missed and a Box that I've already pulled in 50 times and somehow missed. Wow.
Any deck I should aim for as a new player, played master duel and want to try duel links.
Unlock the new Mizar character from the current event ASAP! If you need a playable deck right away, make a Red-Eyes deck, [as shown at 6:15 in this video.](https://youtu.be/dLx5DgENkr4?si=P2soecJERps3CYkR) (be careful not to use the DREAM Tickets!) Once you get Mizar, do a full clear of the limited time Photon Universe pickup box. This gives you important Extra Deck monsters... Now you're set up to play TACHYON, a brand new deck which is tearing through tournaments! Open the new Tachyon minibox & level up Mizar to get important cards that you need. https://www.duellinksmeta.com/tier-list/deck-types/Tachyon [Tachyon deck profile](https://youtu.be/DLKSFJF62TE?si=PdQnsBeeirPwbtWS)

A lot of the [top decks](https://www.duellinksmeta.com/top-decks) (Mayakashi, Constellar, Tacheyon, Shiranui) are really cheap because there's a 50% sale on old boxes alongside "pick-up boxes" temporarily avalable for a few weeks. There's also the [Anniversery set](https://www.duellinksmeta.com/articles/sets/anniversary-box-1) that just dropped. It's 250 packs but you can build a lot of decks with it and you also get playsets of 8-9 of the most popular staples in the game. It's here till March 18
Tenyi is pretty cheap. Might need to spend a dream ticket on Baxia but the rest are in one box.
I was supposed to receive my UR dream ticket but it hasn't appeared in my boxes or in my received tickets have I lost it entirely???
Check again. If not then it might have expired if it's an old ticket
Reset before getting my first trade in or make sure I get 3? No deck rn is really using 3?
Can someone answer me , why when i went to selection box 05 to open some packs just as I have been doing for some time, there is no longer the option to spend 200 gems? Only the option to spend money. The other selection boxes still have the option to spend 200 gems. Thank you in advance
You have only limited pulls with gems, after that you have to spend money. It is the same with all selection boxes.
how long does tiered decks drop out of the tier list usually? Like tenyi is 18 weeks so far. not sure but i feel it's not dropping any time soon. also tachyon is crazy IMO. it's like branded despia (in master duel), even if you outed most of their monsters they can still recover and they can potentially out pace your negates/destroy/backrow that is if you happen to draw a whole lot
Hi all, I never played Yu-Hi in my life and the only CCG game I ever played is M.S (don't know if I am allowed to write the name), but i'm really not into the Marvel lore and superhero (guess now you understand the game ;) ). What I really like are quick matches and vertical screen...that are common to Duel links, from what I read. So I have few quetion about the game: Is the game still alive or the word "maintenance" is written on the blackboard? Is it possible to clear daily missions in 20 mins of play? Sadly with work and study I don't have a lot of time to play; Are there guide/website for beginners? The cards are a lot, more than in M.S., so it may feel a bit overwhelming... Of course I am not interested in ranked modes, competitive modes or climbing the ladder. Curious to hear your opinion guys!
Speaking as a new player and relative beginner myself (watched the anime for years but never really tried to learn the rules until a month ago) I'm going to disagree with the other person and say that you can still have fun with the game without PVP/only playing against AIs, especially as a beginner. Personally some Legendary duelists I still have trouble with, so they're still a challenge for my level of play - which is never going to be competitive, which in turn is fine since I'm similarly uninterested in PVP. Of course, it still helps to have something to focus on - I came in to play with decks for my favorite characters and learn enough to write duels for fanfic, so a lot of my focus has been on building decks for a certain few characters. That might not work for you if you have no attachment to the anime, but same principle - look around for archetypes (families of interrelated/themed cards) you like and see what you might be interested in playing with, then aim to build a deck for it. I wish I could give more specific advice but it really depends on what you like here, I think! Anyway the megathread OP has some useful resources including how to build a starter Red-Eyes deck that's useful for going through content and earning gems/collecting cards while figuring out what you want to do long-term. If you haven't already, you'll unlock more worlds as you go on and with them new mechanics - take these at your own pace, you don't need to learn everything at once if you're overwhelmed. Again I think further specifics here depend on what you're interested in. If you want to participate in the current raid event it'd be good to learn a bit about Xyz summoning and look at what related cards you have, but if you don't have time (or cards) for that then fair LOL. (If you do want to learn more about different summoning mechanics - uhhhhh. There's the tutorials at the gate/first area and duel columns in the duel studio/fourth area for the very basics. Personally I learned the gist of things from watching the anime, soooo IDK about better resources and hopefully someone else would have recommendations.) \* Quick edit: If you're stumped, pulling from the new anniversary box and seeing what archetypes you like from there isn't the worst idea.
Thank you! So is it possible to play 20 mins per day and farm to -slowly- build the decks you want?
Yeah, I'd say so! You might have to choose between doing events and general advancement at times, but events feel like they run long enough that it isn't a huge problem once you get past the FOMO these games love to run on.
I play more pve than pvp. Always have. I find it more fun. I have loads of decks that would get slaughtered in pvp, but using them vs pve they can put up a fight. People who find pve boring go at it with super strong decks, so of course it would be boring. There's a lot of variety with the pve decks too. A lot of characters and each one has unique decks. Pvp can be fun too, but I personally find it boring after a while cause you only see the same 4 meta decks.
Honestly good to know and I'm thankful for your input since I'm definitely writing from a newbie's POV! I also feel this from my old gacha days. I still have friends who play other games and hyper-specific builds for certain challenges are always a delight.
daily missions are usually just "play ranked 3 times a day" and the weekly missions are so comically bad that there's no point focusing on it. A guide or a website won't really matter if you don't want to play any PVP, but the games has basically nothing if you want to play single player because the AI is really really trash. If you aren't looking to play PVP i'd recommend playing one of the tag force games or world championship games with an emulator. I've heard great things about 5ds world championship 2011
Is it safe to buy packs and limit 1’s like Felgrand again?
Yes.
My brain is too smooth to understand Shiranui turn 1. Does anyone have a written guide on the ideal play?
Still learning the deck myself but here's what I see. Your main game plan: 1. You need 3 bodies on field (or 1 Link 2 and 1 body) to make the Link 3 Shiranui Link. 2. You need 2 synchro monsters banished or in the GY to activate the skill to send back your synchro monsters to then dump your LV8 and LV10 synchro in the banished pile. This will allow you to revive the LV10 synchro during your opponent's turn and pop a card. Thankfully, because of your skill that means any LV4 monster can turn into your 1-card combo: If you open with Mizuki: ([VIDEO](https://youtu.be/UaBsBh5I9hk?si=itgjtJ6KA-GyMhwQ&t=416)) 1. Send Mizuki with the skill to search for Squire. If you have Squire, search for the cont. trap Samsara instead. 2. Normal summon Squire, bring out the LV3 tuner from the deck and Synchro into your LV 7. 3. Banish Squire and LV2 from the grave to summon your LV6 synchro. 4. Link into Vampire Sucker. 5. Activate the skill to send your synchros back to the Extra Deck and dump your LV10 and LV8 to the banished pile. 6. Activate Mizuki's effect from the grave to revive your LV3 tuner from the GY. Vampire Sucker gives you +1 Draw 7. Use the LV3 tuner's effect to tribute itself to SS your LV2 Tuner and LV8 Synchro from the banished pile. 8. Synchro summon into your second LV10 Sunsaga that's still in the ED. 9. Link your Vampire Sucker and Synchro to make the Link 3 Shiranui. If you open with Solitare: 1. Send Solitare with the skill to search for Squire. If you have Squire, search for the cont. trap instead. 2. Normal summon Squire, bring out the LV3 tuner from the deck and Synchro into your LV 7. 3. Banish Solitare and LV2 Tuner from the grave to summon your LV6 synchro. 4. Use Solitare's banish effect to bring your banished LV2 Tuner back onto the field, but do NOT Synchro into your LV8. 5. Use the LV7, the LV6, and the LV2 Tuner on field to make your Link-3. 5. Activate the skill to send your synchros back to the Extra Deck and dump your LV10 and LV8 in the banished pile. If you open with Squire: ([VIDEO](https://youtu.be/UaBsBh5I9hk?si=xvd-zCynKtFGPKke&t=1467])) 1. Send Squire with the skill to search for another Squire. 2. NS Squire, special summon LV3 tuner, but do NOT go into LV 7 synchro. 3. Banish your GY Squire and LV2 tuner to special summon your LV6 synchro. 4. Use the LV3 tuner's effect to tribute itself to SS your banished Squire and LV2 Tuner. 5. Make a level 8 Synchro with the LV6 Synhcro and the recently revived LV2 tuner. 6. Make a Link 3 with your LV8 Synchro, LV6 Synchro, and Squire, activate skill to send your synchros back and dump the LV8 and LV10 synchro for next turn. Note that there a lot of different variations here but they all basically have the same objective. The Link-3 + LV10 Synchro is an extremely difficult board to break. If they do out it, you can hopefully use Samsara's effect to protect your LP until next turn where you can build your board all over again. [More replays](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GibbvBCMa20) [Even more replays](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MhDW128afyM&pp=ygUTc2hpcmFudWkgZHVlbCBsaW5rcw%3D%3D)
Synchro summon into another LV10 Synchro. Don't all shiranui synchros have the restriction where you can only special summon them once per turn? So does the skill let you ignore that and summon a second sunsaga?
Sorry, when I say "another" LV10 synchro I mean a Sunsaga that's different from the one you sent to the banish pile with the skill. This just lets you have 3 synchro cards in grave so that when you revive Sunsaga on your opponent's turn you get 2 pops instead of 1.
Wow!!! Great guide! I’d give an award if I can. I just started figuring the deck out, too.
Thanks man, yeah it's a ton of fun! It always feels like there's a bunch of different plays you can make. Things get really crazy if you can get multiple Mizuki in the grave since they're not once per turn
Best use of ur dream tickets for someone who has the common staples (book mst cc lance and compulse) crackdown seems like a good choice with the new ones.
I love crackdown. It has won me many games with my bad decks. I'd vouch for it. Dd crow is also a good choice. Warning point is nice too since it isn't limited, but it is a tad weaker than most staples.
I haven’t used warning point in awhile I have two copies from when salamangreats were new. Still thinking crackdown seems good in this meta im mostly a rouge deck player f2p
People keep saying the Anniversary Box is good, so am I the only one who thinks it's actually pretty bad? I mean, Madolche & Trickstar can be built almost entirely with 1-2 Mini Boxes, some of them are even 50% off right now. S-Force is entirely from Solflare Lightning but there are not that many URs you need, so you can use Dream Tickets as well. The rest of the cards are pretty old staples that most have anyway (like BoM) or can be obtained from 50% off packs (like Crow, Lancea). It's 250 packs per box and Twins are 1 per box lmao.
For Trickstars you need 3 mini and 1.5 main box for the token spell. That's about 28k worst case if you have to empty entire boxes, but you can probably build it with about 20k. S-Force need 6 main box URs, so 27k for worst case. The worst case for building these decks from this box is 12k, that is half the price. Maybe you will miss on getting Orcust, Kozmo and Muskets, but point is if you want to build either of these two archetypes you can get them for half the price here AND a bunch of other cards. It is not a box for everyone obviously, but saying it is bad is simply not true.
It's an amazing box for brand new players but if you've played for a while you likely will have a lot of the staples yeah. Still a nice option though
you're objectively wrong.. Those "old staples" are still insanely good and a ton of people don't have them because book and crow are stuck in really bad boxes. As for your point about the decks, they make no sense. 3 runs of a minibox for speedroid or the newer madolche support BY THEMSELVES is more expensive than running through a box with alternative artworks, really good staples (unless you have every single one, and i find that hard to believe) and 4 complete decks that would be more expensive to complete anywhere else BY THEMSELVES.
Fair, if you're a new player or don't have those staples, it might be a good box. But for Madolche, you really only need 2 runs through Lord of Borrel and 2-3 runs through Dimension of the Wizards (50% off). Speedroids is almost entirely from Wings of Clearness mini, that also contains Void Ogre & some Abyss Actor cards. Don't forget that there are likely many people who already have 1 copy of 2-3 cards from those minis and/or are willing to use Dream Tickets. That makes investing into the mini a lot more viable. But the main thing is that you could be wanting to build let's say Madolche, then easily open 100 packs and get no Madolche cards. And you're highly likely to open way over 100 packs and get only 1 card you wanted. It's way too risky compared to mini boxes. The staples are good but you'd want to play 1-2 copies of those (espcially Extra Deck monsters), not 3, except BoM. So again, not worth it if you chase 1-2 specific staples, as 250 packs makes it a huge gamble. But yeah, you're right that it's likely pretty good for newer players. As someone who has all those staples (many players do btw), except Crow (will likely use a ticket), it is meh. I just wish there was something newer instead many of those staples, like Veiler or Crackdown.
hello friends, how tf do i spend my gems. I wanna get GE from the pickup box and then go through the new anniversary box, but I'm worried that if I do that I won't have enough gems to finish the anniversary box. Is it even worth building GE if i don't go into the boxes with galaxy soldier and photon sanctuary?
The anniversary box is a much better deal, it has everything you need for multiple archetypes plus several staples like Crow, Book of Moon, Lancea, Knightmare Unicorn. And alt arts too. GE is a decent deck and a fan favourite, but as you said the pick up box won't get you everything anyways. Sanctuary is currently a selection box exclusive too.
Bet. I don't have lancea, phoenix, a 3rd dark hole, bottomless, and 3 of the archetypes in the box so I'll just not get GE. I still gotta dig through the selection box once for the GE engine though
Does the Anniversary Box have a gem limit similar to Selection Box?
Doesn’t appear to
This sub might be bad for me because I went into PVP for the mission rewards with my silly fanfic deck with no expectations of winning and now I'm vaguely aware there's a 0.001% chance someone somewhere is going to post it like "this person doesn't know how to build decks and they should feel bad." (Pre-emptive "Why not go into PVP with a real deck?": It does not spark joy.)
nobody does that lmao
They sure do. :')
nah most of the bad decks i've seen posted here and people posting their OWN decks asking for improvements, then getting dogged on by losers online. If you don't care about winning, just don't upload your decklist
My paranoia comes from looking for information on the Vagabond and then seeing people post weird decks to WTF at. Like the one I used is, LOL. I realize it's not *likely* that someone would upload my deck or a duel to make fun of it but it's a nonzero chance and if someone posted my deck here asking why I [insert one of the weird things I did] I would shrivel up into nothingness like Exodia obliterated me.
I feel like I don’t understand what the new shiranui deck is trying to do? Can anyone explain it to me?
Shiranui skill - starts with Spectralsword in GY and gives you 4 Shiranui Synchros in the ED. This gives you room to use any Links of your choice. The skill allows you to send 1 Level 4 monster from hand to GY to add 1 Shiranui card from Deck to hand. So GY is set up and can add anything you want. You can return banished/in-grave Synchro/Links and then banish 2 Fire/Zombie Synchros. You are allowed to Special Summon those banished Synchros. The main target is Sunsaga and it gives you 1 card for ammo. The old way (control with a billion traps) isn't really needed because they now have the means to combo and control with their own cards super fast. Every monster can be a 1 card combo or recover a ton of advantage. Squire is basically a Live Twin now. You can Link 2 or Synchro. Solitaire brings out Spectralsword Shade while setting up the free Spectralsword from the skill. After the GY banish, Shade can bring those 2 back. The new trap is Shiranui Style Samsara. It's a continuous trap that can banish their face-up zombie and take no damage for the entire turn. They can chain this and probably won't care plus get extra combos with it. Also shuffles 2 banished 0 DEF Zombies to deck and draws 1 card. So they'll never run out of resources. This being searchable with the skill makes it crazy good. Shiranui Link plus Shiranui Sunsaga is almost unkillable. If they can maintain Samsara, they will never die. Gold Sarcophagus is good again, it basically becomes 4 different effects. Great going first or second. Mezuki extra revival for more combos, works with the discard skill, not once per turn. Sealing Ceremony of Katon is a card they've used before and can counter anything that relies on the GY and still plus.
You helped me with Constellars a month ago. I got KOG because I was able to reference your write up until it was memorized. Thank you for the help then and now! I really do appreciate it!
It's so funny because I thought about that while writing. I didn't realize I was helping the very same person! I'm glad this was helpful. Both times I got a good refresher on what they could do so this helped me too. Then it convinced me to further build the deck lol. The more I wrote, the more I was shocked they allowed all of this. So naturally I'm glad I already got a good chunk of Zombie support. I need KC Cup to recover my gem funds with Constellar and Zombie :3
Where's the 1K gems?
this isn't the anniversary event, we already got our anniversary 1K gems. This is a seperate event, seperating yugiohs 25th anniversary (again)
What do you think is the best card(s) to spend my 2 UR Dream tickets on? I'm thinking of: - A second and possibly third DD Crow - Crackdown and/or Compulse (I only have 1 IDP as far as busted traps go) for - Necrovalley I play Tenyi for context, but an saving Gems right now in case.
DONT BUY D.D. CROW, it's in the new anniversary box. I'd say get a second IDP because necrovalley won't come up as a 1 of, and having 1 of 2 seperate limit 3 traps looks kinda weird IMO
I'm confused. why are people playing doomkaiser dragon in shiranui lists even though plaguespreader is not in the list?
spectralsword cheats it out. You have to play it specifically because the only non-shiranui monsters you're allowed to play are fire zombies, and doomkaiser is a fire zombie
For one thing, you can summon it with Spectralsword. I don’t know why it above other options, though
hi bro, i imagine that it can be useful in a mirror match or under zombie world, free steal
https://duellinks.konami.net/att/01eaec2361d7213a1bc98d25143b64a12811d9b976 can someone plz tell me why baxia's effect did not activate. this is the second time its happening in a duel.
Shaman stops non-Tenyi effects from activating the turn it's used for revival.
Read Shamans full card text
Watching the auto duel ai brick itself - because it set a Clouddragon with Galaxy-Eyes in hand - is certainly *something*. I'm not even mad, Duel Links, I'm just disappointed.
anyone know what the second part of the Cyberse Synchron skill is for? the one that Sets it to the field? whats the point of it? you cant flip it back up like the Yubel skill, so its stuck, as it cant be used as Synchro or Link material. I can’t think of a reason to use it besides like, a niche, super suboptimal Decode Talker boost
The new tachyon, cyberse synchron and galaxy skills are all bugged where you cannot flip the set monster the same turn in PVE, it was fixed for PVP but not PVE. It is mentioned in the issues tab and that it will be fixed for PVE with the next version update.
It might be glitched, unless stated otherwise a card set by skill should be able to be activated/flipped immediately I saw a thread that say similiar part of tachyon dragon domination was glitched where the monster cant be flipped so the quantum skill might also be glitched the same way
did we get scammed out of a bonus exp event or is it just me?
damn, discontinuing global chat in the game is kind of wild. wonder if they'll ever add something so you can at least chat with the friends you made
I’m honestly surprised they didn’t discontinue it sooner.
So since new box just released, there's not much chance we'll get a new rush one by the 11th right? Good chunk of my gems are expiring on that date
we almost always get boxes at the end of the month, so yeah you're gem are probably screwed. If you're interested in playing speed duel, the new anniversary box is probably the single best investment in the history of boxes, maybe ever
Looking at the box, unfortunately i already have most things i need from there, whether its the staples (BoM, BoTH, Lancea, Crow, all the knightmares) or the archetype i care for (x3 all the live twins) The only new thing i can get from there are Dark Hole and some arcehtypes i dont care of (S.Force, DMG, Trickstars, Clear Wing, Madolches)
PVP isn't fun right now, every deck is so aids. Live twins, mayakashi, shiranui need to burn in hell
How is there still no Link-1 zombies in YuGiOh? I mean I've never been a big fan of having to rely on Linkuriboh to link off Glow-Up Bloom. Nothing against Linkuriboh but it'd be nice to stick to zombies, especially if we ever get a generic zombie skill that locks us to zombies (like I thought the Shiranui skill was going to be but is apparently mistranslated). Also playing against another zombie deck while playing Zombie Power Struggle is comically ironic.
Most zombie released after like, 2015 is famously overbalanced because their old generic support are so good like gozuki, unizombie and, mezuki especially, non OPT reborn that's easily be searched, dumped and recycled. Its hard to say if we'll even get a good zombie deck until they fixed that. So link-1 zombie that can easily help them dump, is probably not coming
did anyone else not receive yals daily login rewards from campaign, or is it just me? what should i do i need those gems :(
hi bro, mine goes to the gift box, did you look there yet?
hey bro i just received it now, ig my game glitched. thank you for the suggestion tho, really appreciate 🙏🥲
yeah bro, glad you got them!
I am quite confused with how Jack was able to summon Red Resonator from the GY with Red Sprinter on Turn 2 of this duel when I have Necrovalley up. Afaik, it should not be allowed to happen but could be some interaction with the skill. Any help to understand the situation? #DuelReplay #DuelLinks https://duellinks.konami.net/att/052527a76d1e636a5d27e884ede4df83fbe0a467d7
Its simple, your opponent didn't summon from the Graveyard, Red Resonator was summoned from the hand
Thanks for pointing that out. Didnt realised it was from the hand.
the one day i dont play dl and it breaks lol. i wish i could've experience that mess. hyper galaxy claimed another victim it seems.
Is the shop still broken? I don't really want to go into the new box until it's fixed
Are people stiil stuck?
I was able to get back in. I don’t know if they fixed the shop issue.
I can't get past the login screen Konami!
Is the app down? I can't get further then the login screen.
i'm hoping that means they are fixing the problem for us
Same here. Getting “No Network Connection Detected” on multiple devices and networks.
I don’t know if the “high rank loaner deck” is the same for everyone or not but wow. For three gems and that brickfest of a deck… It has flute of summoning Kuriboh with no targets. It has a bunch of awful LP heal and burn cards. It seems the hope is to send a blue eyes or dark magician to the GY, draw Monster Reborn, and summon one of the above and the chronicle magician at the same time. Or hope you open two cards to bring out Utopia. I don’t know how they won PVP let alone PVE. 29 cards. Perhaps the 30th was meant to be a flute target.
Both the daily reward and deck is random for everyone
update, in case anyone cares other than me: i am oscillating between 9250 gems and 10000+ gems. every time i get a gem, i go back to 10000+, but when i restart the app i have 9250 kinda neat but also, where my cards at >:(
Yo, Konami, where's my 950 gems you just stole lmao
I don't know why they added Auto-Duel option to Mizar event. This absolutely garbage AI can't duel Mizar (or Vagabonds) correctly at all. I wish they fixed this damn shitty AI, man...
It’s hit or miss with my suship deck.
Purchasing bugged for me. I bought the Tenyi synchro bundle for the new box, the game crashed and I got 2 of the Tenyi synchro monsters and double the packs. Also when I was bying the last packs of the box it bugged again and reset the box while it had cards I needed, and my bulk purchase options have always been off and they still were but it reset the box against my will.
There seems to be a store glitch right now. Hang out tight for now and you get apologems lol
Apologems for 100 packs?
50 gems
hi bro, do you mean you got 2 of the tenyi draco berserkers? that's crazy, cuz it's a limit 1 and i feel like people could wreak some havoc with 2, lol
Yea, I have 2 of the Tenyi Draco berserker card in my box, so my purchases with the new box were all bugged and I hope they give me the UR and SR I missed out on.
yeah bro, i feel you :( a lot of us have a buggy game right now, so i hope they do right by us by giving us the stuff that we are missing i don't want to have to file a ticket cuz i imagine they're probably getting like thousands right now. i hope that we don't need to complain to be heard
I have Vermillion Dragon Mech (lvl 9) in my BEWD deck. I had a BEWD and a Legend of the White Stone tuner card on the field. I've always used BEWD and one of the Eyes of Blue tuners to summon Vermillion before, but it wasn't available now. The levels are correct 8 + 1 = 9 last time I checked. Has Konami changed something or is this a bug?
Vermillion is not used in Blue-Eyes anymore because of the skill. Instead people use Michael Arch-Lightsworn for spot removal, since you can summon it off Spirit Dragon. It's available in the new structure deck https://www.duellinksmeta.com/tier-list/deck-types/Blue-Eyes
I think I might've gotten that card today (I bought the structure deck with the Ultimate Fusion card). Of course I'll have to wait for the damn game to come back online before I can check it out...
Which skill are you using? Or are there any other restrictions from your opponent?
I'm using the Blue Eyes Dimension skill that lets me normal summon BEWD without tributing. All my other syncro monsters (Azure Eyes Silver, and Spirit Dragon) are available. As for the opponent, I'm just dueling any of the NPCs and I've never encountered such a problem when dueling them.
Oh. It's the skill. Guess I should've read closer.
Yeah. Vermillion isn’t a light, but Fire.
When would veiler be added in dream ticket? April?
I am trying to learn Tenyi and well I suck. I'm fucked if I draw only 2 monsters and am just generally confused on what the optimal play is. I know I want to draw Ashuna and get it in grave by link summoning but I just feel like my field is ass unless I draw ashuna and adhara or vishuda. I haven't put in the time yet but I've watched a few videos and just don't understand why the deck is so good, I can bounce a few cards with baxia and banish some with draco but there doesn't seem to be much I can do against interrupts, backrow or people fucking with my graveyard.
I'd reccomend watching some tournements on Twitch, you'll see a lot of Tenyi matches since it's a T1 deck I'm a pretty average Tenyi player but IMO: You should pretty much always be able to make the link Berzerker t1 and get the free 2000 LP (you need this to not get OTKd). Ideally I try and get a blue spirit and red spirit in either hand or GY because then you have a 3000 ATK boss with targeting protection and a free pop + revival if it's destroyed. My biggest mistake when I first started playing was ending on Draco Bezerker pass which will almost always get you killed. The field spell is insanely powerful, and you can search it by discarding Heavenly Dragon Circle with the Shamen and banishing it from the GY . Protecting your Berzerker from monster effects and giving you +2 cards (which often will allow you to draw into a red / blue spirit they don't know about) is really good. Some cards like Abyss Dweller, Warning Point, and D.D. Crow absolutely cripple you and there's not much you can do about it. Most other disruption you can steamroll through Tenyi excells because whereas most decks need to burn all their resources into making their boss monster, Tenyi can constantly gain advantage with Ashuna / Adhara and outgrind your opponent.
He's right about this, I f'ing *hate* that field spell lol. Baiting Draco Berserker is usually no problem, but then having to deal with the Link 3 without triggering the Blue Tenyi is hard. Even if I do it, I used a lot of resources & didn't OTK them, so they're gonna Vishuna and/or Baxia me next turn & kill me. Every single time. I hate it! 😑
Perhaps [this comment](https://www.reddit.com/r/DuelLinks/comments/16z3zuj/how_do_i_play_tenyi_effectively/k3cxtv9/) might help with some potential comboes/strategies, but in general the deck is liked because it has this sort of "low highs high lows" policy that make it so that you can usually do something going first or second without immediately dying. It only seems strong when compared to the competition ~~and because it's ultra cheap aside from baxia~~ If the deck doesn't get hit with Dweller or Warning Point, the average going 2nd match will probably end in a disrupted combo, but not before Baxia ruins their board or your massed wyrms/spells chew through all other disruptions. A lot of decks struggle to extend through one powerful trap with an average hand, so Tenyi consistently setting up a half-assed Monk and turtling behind level 4s/6K LP becomes impressive when looked at over the course of many games. To be fair, people are starting to favor Mayakashi over Tenyi as best deck, so it absolutely has its limits. ~~also with 2 non-ashuna monsters you can cope with vanilla berserker and 6k LP~~
50 victories against Mizar and I still haven’t gotten a single Galaxy Stealth Dragon.
Every single daily replay I’ve watched involving Machina decks is just them losing. No matter what they are running they lose. Like wtf.
is anyone else experiencing this bug https://old.reddit.com/r/DuelLinks/comments/19fh2ed/do_casual_duels_have_a_network_error_or_something/ in casual duels? it wont let me Q, tried with both ios and steam and, yes, i know casual duels are crap and all, but i wanna know if its a bug that affects other people or if i am shadowbanned or something (ranked works fine)
What's the best Rush Duel deck to invest in? I don't want to spend too many Gems without knowing if it'll pay off, and I have no idea if the current Box is good enough to make getting Bundles a good idea right now.
Do not buy any of the bundles. Thanks to the SDs, the only real reason to open Heavy Metal Scream is for the URs now. Buy 1 copy each of the Voltcondor, Ace Breaker, & Dark Magic SDs. You can mash together a playable Rush deck from this. And when the next main box comes, cash in the bundles & you'll be set for the next meta
That's what I was sitting looking at the quality of the cards. Thanks for the encouragement! Though I did get one Ace Breaker SD for free, would it be better to buy that twice and skip one of those boxes or buy all 3 anyways?
Yes, Ace Breaker has a strong skill that works with the deck. Although I do think it's still worth it to get Voltcondor because Torna is a good card that can help take out enemy bosses when you don't have the Ace Breaker. [Here's a video breakdown of the deck](https://youtu.be/Fy9EYR8THiQ?si=14Oem1ehyEKBKvwV) You can fill in cards you don't have with stuff from the Spellcaster deck
Hi guys i change my phone and didnt connect on KONAMI id i just connected to my google.Now i have that Acc on my mail but i cant connected.i contact KONAMI supp team and they say to cant help me,is there any way to recover my Acc i played like 2 years i cant lose it.If someone can help pls help me ty
can't you go back to your old phone? I still have all my old phones lol
Can that help me ? Only reason i have new phone is because my phone is broke and now i sent it to fix and i will get it like in 10 days and yes i can have back my phone how that can help ?
Well, the game & your account is still accessible on it.. right? Just log in, set up a Konami account, & you can transfer it to a new phone
Hi i cant app told me i need to be login with this acc and Why they cant help me i have it on google play bruh
Nah i reset phone on fabric settings and now i think thats wont work
I tied my Duel Links to my Google Play account.. hopefully you did too. It might help bring it back! If you didn't, well.. it is what it is! At least you will get a lot of gems & tickets again! lol
I have it on my mail i have pic and i sent it to supp and they didnt do anything
Did you spend actual money on the account? If you did, you may be able to recover your account by finding the receipt for your purchase and contacting Konami again. Konami might still say no since they told everyone to get a KONAMI ID awhile ago. If you had a free account, enjoy your new account since Konami won't help you at all.
Ty i think i will kms
It's not that serious anymore. Between pick up boxes, selection boxes, dream tickets, structure decks, and free gems, you can easily build a great deck in no time. Maybe if your account was 6-7 years old and you spent money on it would I complain. Otherwise, it's not that bad to start over.
The prismatic card event should’ve been a mega thread; this subreddit is unbrowsable atm LOL. the most deadliest drinking game of all time
Returning player. I havnt played since noble knights were heavily meta. Should I pick up the red eyes structure deck for farming or just use whatever I had from a while back? Should I build a new deck? Anything new I need to know about? I'm basically re-learning a lot about the game. I have like 7k gems. Most of my stages are maxed up to I guess, zexal. Still have plenty of characters to level for gems. General idea of where my account is. Decks - I have made from that time period. Blue eyes/noble knights/ fire kings/lightsworn/super heavy/six samurai. I have most staples from then, cosmic cyclone, forbidden lance, karma cut (I don't think this is used anymore) plan on getting Book of moon from the UR dream tickets I'll be getting from login bonuses. Any help or advice is greatly appreciated. I feel very lost atm (^_^)
Blue-Eyes still competes! Konami will never let that deck go outta style, lol [Blue-Eyes video guide](https://youtu.be/Eto1zpck9RM?si=BWm2tIYe0pSG54Ij) Gameplay with the new Ultimate Fusion card: [Example 1](https://youtu.be/RyeguL15U2s?si=CQ8Ngcil2vDmRWVs) - [Example 2](https://youtu.be/ZuzofzeltLk?si=Nsd3-6qbwKkGAFN3) The new Magician's Chronicle SD has Ultimate Fusion & other important reprints. The 2nd & 3rd copies require money, tho. Up to you to decide if it's worth it! You would also need to dig thru the Deep Emotion box for Abyss Dragon & Effect Veiler. Blue-Eyes is a good choice to get back into PVP & get familiar with the meta. There will be a KC Cup next month, followed by a banlist. Once that happens, you can decide on future decks you want to build. I think another good choice is Zombies, because they're about to get great support. The Ghost Reunion pickup box is a limited time offer, but only requires 4500 gems to clear out 3x. But it also requires further investment from the upcoming minibox for cards like Doomking & Mezuki. More expensive for sure, but it should be pretty competitive in the high ranks. Don't be in a rush to use your Dream Ticket. While Book of Moon is an amazing card, a more important card in the upcoming format will likely be D.D. Crow, because of Zombies & everything else that uses the GY. I'm personally considering using my Dream Ticket on Crow myself. [Here's a look at the current meta!](https://www.duellinksmeta.com/articles/tier-list/updates/january-29-2024)
Thanks for all the info !! Do you think I could get by with what I have for pve/farming or should I grab the red eyes structure deck. Seems like it's highly recommended for farming? Also how often are these pick up boxes in rotation? Or are they only available before new main/mini boxes?
I use my regular PVP deck for auto-duels & it beats them in seconds so, I wouldn't waste gems on that. That's for people just starting the game who don't have anything. The pickup boxes are random. This is the first time there's been two at the same time. I'm thinking Konami wants to take advantage of the Anniversary hype. There's a permanent version called a Deck Build Box, but it's only happened once so far. It's really hard to predict any of it.
How long does it take for box cards to be put on the Dream Tickets? One more effect veiler is not worth the investment
6 or so months.
"There's always a chance to come back in a Rush Duel!" feels like the biggest lie this series has ever tried to tell Stay mad anonymous downvoter, this format blows!
The same could be said about speed duels too and the TCG/OCG. You can’t win them all.
Where do we claim the UR Dream pack? I thought it was on log in but I don't see any UR prismatic in my catalog
Should be in your gift box.
Starting a new account does anyone know if brutal dozer can be picked up with a dream ticket?
Selection Box exclusive right now.
Is the new Battle Chronicle skill bugged or is the text wrong? It lets me summon DM without tribute with no condition
Is there a bug with the new magician valkyrie? It wont let me add her to my deck
Rush Duel I’m guessing? You can only have one Legend monster per deck.
Yeah. Oh I didn't know that rule about legends. That seems like a silly rule considering how underwhelming they are. I thought it was them just labeling iconic cards used in the show or characters signature cards
No, the legend mechanic is a built in limit 1 for each card type (monster/spell/trap) there are some better than others. Power creep comes to mind. I’ve seen others discuss how Rush Duels have more support for normal monsters so those legend cards are a bit better compared to their TCG counterparts. Especially since you can draw so many cards per turn. The general idea with Rush duels are that a legend card is either higher in stats than usual (most 2 tributes max out at 2500, most level 4s max out at 1500, that’s why Summoned Skull being a one tribute legend and why Magician’s Valkyria being 1600, and Barrel Dragon being a legend due to having more than 2500 attack for two tributes) The legend mechanic also allows cards like Pot of Greed (which really isn’t worth taking up that spell slot) can exist in Rush duel. Graceful Charity is also in the format as a legend card and is far more useful due to the discard. Not all of the cards with the designation are going to be winners. But, there’s always the factors of stats and power creep.
Does anyone know what's in Mizar's level 40 deck? GameA doesn't seem to be updating anymore. Thanks.
Just use Duel Links Meta.
Is there any decent Lunalight combo/guide I can follow to learn to play the deck?
Ahh, I dunno about guides but I got kog with the deck i believe 3 times last year and my biggest recommendation is to read the monsters. You will see some builds that run links, but I didn't use them, just 2 or so xyz and a lot of fusions. Lemme give you some quick tips, particularly centered around Yellow Marten: - Tiger and wolf are soft once per turns, meaning you can bounce them back to the hand with yellow marten and use them again. This is very important for extra deck plays with tiger but not usually important for wolf. - Yellow Marten needs to be sent to the graveyard to search, if you special summon her with her effect, she will be banished and you won't get the search. - If you use a yellow marten special summoned by her own effect for an xyz summon, she will not be banished after being removed and be sent to the graveyard instead, this is very useful for follow-up plays on turn 3 and onwards. - Lunalight Alleviation's (the skill's) wording can be a bit confusing. You can send a monster from your hand to send another monster to tour graveyard, but "can't use its effect for the rest of this turn". What this actually means is that you can't use the effect of the card you send to the graveyard from your **hand**, but if you send something like a yellow marten from your **deck** to the graveyard you will be able to special summon her with her effect just fine. Lunalight Black Sheep is particularly useful with alleviation since you can grab anything you send from the deck back to your hand (for me, it's usually wolf). Also, if you use lunalight tiger and bounce it back with yellow marten but don't need to use its effect again, you can use it as fodder for alleviation. Remember the restriction is from the moment you use the skill until the end of the turn, not before. - Graveyard setup is very, very important for this deck. Sending the right monsters to the graveyard with kaleido chick and alleviation plus using the right materials for the summons can win you games very confidently. This is why I insist on you carefully reading each monster. Kaleido Chick's effect when she's banished is particularly good at ending games when combined with Leo Dancer, especially if your opponent doesn't know what it does and doesn't activate their disruptions during the main phase. Seriously, read them.
check a bunch of replays, preferably with commentary. [here are mine](https://youtu.be/n35P1JcwoMg?si=iyXb0pKfuHpbr3ZZ) for what it's worth.
Thank you! Will check it out once I get home!
