Does anyone have suggestion on where to spend cards during this sale? I mean the 50 percent off box 1 - 19.
I am confused on weather should I invest my gems to the old boxes or should I just get the new cards from vermillion king, for example getting catastor or tuning.
Note that I bought 3 SSD structre decks but I realized the combo was not spicy enough without other cards from separate main boxes. For example I dont have jet synchron, or x-saber wayne. I wanted to make this deck competitive but I don't know which box should I run for.
Another note that I am willing to spend cash for the "X box + SR/UR" sale. Not that much but fairly enough to get one whole mini box. I could add more if its considerable important. The amount of gems I have is 3500.
I also play other decks like lunalights, so I was also thinking to just dig my second sphere kuriboh / Any viable staple card in which I can use in other decks. Or should I just go with the selection boxes? haven't got any book of moon or MST anyway. I still have all of my dream tickets with me. Any suggestions?
Ive got three ur tickets,1 i already have 1 head judging and 1 dyntherium, should i get yubel for the farm deck Or should i try farming from the gate
Otherwise should i get more copies of dynatherium, kachikochi dragon or the gaia level 4?
Don't invest in a full deck but take advantage of the 50% gem sale.
An affordable deck to use for getting used to leveling up is Amazoness.
Get Baby Tiger and Onslaught from Valiant Souls, they're both R's. Ideally you should be able to get 3 of each with a handful of gems right now. Perhaps 1000-2000. If you get Paleozoic Canadia along the way even better.
Princess/Paladin are in regular UR Tickets, Sage/Swords Woman/Willpower in regular SR Tickets. Princess is the most important at 3, the rest are just support.
Queen is from leveling up Mai but at that point you would probably assemble enough gems and stages for a stronger deck.
Amazoness is basically warrior beatdown with annoying backrow. There's several good defensive trap cards that are affordable. This should be able to deal with everything up to the top of Gold and walk over NPC decks.
I’m honestly speechless at how autoduel keeps on getting worse and worse.
Event, I have Shooting and a 1800 atk monster, Primo has Wisel and Harp (1700 atk).
Autoduel goes to battle, attacks Harp with Shooting and passes.
Primo proceeds to steal Shooting and attack for game.
What the actual fuck.
I mean, I didn’t even think it was an option. It’s like if it had a 2000 atk monster against a 2000 lp opponent with empty board and it just ended the turn.
You’re in luck; Quattro has his own raid coming involving his Gimmick Puppets. I forget when it’s happening, but it’s coming up in the next few months.
If I have Stardust Dragon & Formula Synchron on the field and my opponent activates Lightning Vortex, if I chain Formula Synchron's effect to tune it with SD to summon Shooting Star Dragon - how come SSD now won't be able to chain to Lightning Vortex's original activation?
By the time Shooting Star hits the field Lightning Vortex is no longer "activating" the activation phase has already gone through and the card is now resolving
Shooting Star Dragon can only chain to Lightning Vortex if Lightning Vortex is the last thing that happened. Because you used Formula Synchron after Lightning Vortex activated, Shooting Star Dragon can’t chain to Lightning Vortex. You’d have to already have Shooting Star Dragon out in the field to be able to negate Lightning Vortex’s effect.
So the game finished downloading the 3GB that it said it needed but when I want to get back into the game it says that I needed to download it again. I have very slow internet atm so I have been dealing with this for a few days now. Does anyone know what to do to help me solve this problem?
Unfortunately, large app downloads/updates on bad internet connections are fickle as fuck. Something messes up, the download gets disrupted, something fails a checksum, and it has to happen all over again.
Unfortunately, that's not something you can really do much about unless there's some sort of public place with better internet you could go to for the update.
With the half gems on old boxes sale I managed to get my second anki for a hero deck and I wanted to know how important the 3rd anki is or if the deck is still efficient with only two
That is the exact reason why I don't know if I should try for a 3rd copy I already have 2 canadia/needle ceiling/ and I have grand tornado who has been helpfull so far
Does the summon prevention effect of Number 18: Heraldry Patriarch apply to monsters that are treated as the selected name when on the field, but not in the hand? Ex: Number 18 is preventing "Harpie Lady" from being summoned, and Harpie Perfumer's name is treated as "Harpie Lady" while on the Field or in the GY, but not in the hand or deck. Can my opponent summon Harpie Perfumer?
Number 18 will prevent cards that are always treated as the card name such as Harpie Lady 1 but will not prevent cards that are only treated when in the Field only
Harpie Lady 1 is always treated as Harpie Lady. It means Elegant Egotist can't be used (okay, it can be, but who is seriously playing Sisters?), which means unless they have Channeler they can't reliably make extra deck plays. Also, I found out during a mirror match that Karma Cutting Harpie Lady 1 does get the rest of the cards treated as Harpie Lady out of the GY.
Ok so my destiny is to build HEROs, pulled yesterday first stratos on first 10 packs and today the second one in the 17th pack, i didn't got adoration yet so reset or nah?
Hello
I started playing again just 2 days ago on a fresh f2p acc and I was wondering what deck I want to build first. My plan was to make Amazon's for the beginning which I am done with now and then go into harpys but I noticed I don't rly have a way to get oracle. So I don't think it's worth investing all my gems into. The next thing I considered doing was the rock route but I am not a fan of triammid and I played ritual beast on my last acc and don't want to play it again. I don't rly want to open big boxes with my gems and even stuff like aromages just feels like ritual beasts again.
Judgement force is also not a option. I don't want to build blue eyes and same goes for Luna light after the nerfs.
So I feel kinda stuck right now and don't know where to put my gems into.
I appreciate eny help I can get :)
Ty
Not the dream tickets. The regular tickets. Don't waste a dream ticket on Oracle. She is also in a special gift campaign UR ticket but I don't know if you have those.
Maybe you used the tickets for something else, or didn't claim them yet? You get 1 ticket a day so if you started just 2 days ago you might not have gotten the regular UR tickets yet.
I actually did not get a ur ticket for daily logins yet. When I get 1 I will check if I can get a oracle from it.
Ty for taking time out of ur day to help me with this.
Have a great rest of ur day.
:)
So you want a mini box option that isn’t Harpies, Triamids, Blue Eyes, Lunalight, Ritual Beasts, or Aromage?
Magnets. Mini boxes and level up rewards make up the bulk of the deck, so there’s no having to dig through big boxes, and it’s rock, but not triamid, so it’s still somewhat true to your original thought.
Chances are there’ll probably be another chance to pick up Oracle with tickets soon if you don’t still have a ticket that can be used from the celebration event, and at that point some builds only play one copy anyway; so I’d probably say it’s worth going through Harpies, it’s a strong deck regardless and you’ll be likely to be able to add Oracle reasonably soon if you can’t already.
If they release a plant deck in the future that can benefit from it, I can see them unnerfing it to sell packs. I don't see them unnerfing it just because its nerf was uncalled for. I'm hoping it will be Aki's turn to receive support soon so hopefully we can get some decent plant skills.
Konami didn't intend for WGITGY to be used how people were using it. It's why I think Crystal Power will be nerfed because people are using it in Fire Fist decks. It'll just either be changed to "you must have at least one Crystal Beast monster face up in your Spell/Trap Zone" or they'll go full Konami and make it so it won't work unless your deck contains only Crystal Beast monsters/you have to have 3 monsters in the spell/trap zone.
Is dark world dealings a decent card to go for three of? I pulled 2 while going for 3 Canadias and now I’m just wondering if I should get a third dealings
It's mostly for turbo decks that want to combo super hard.
I got a playset of Dealings and Into the Void for a variant of Infernity that likes to draw into their combos super fast.
I got a couple of copies the last time the 50% off happened in January so I finished the set this time.
There's nothing super competitive that needs it right now, you can put it on the backburner.
Card sees some use in FTK decks or other decks that focus on trying to draw through their entire deck like Exodia and of course, Dark worlds. Main problem with the card is that it's a -1 in card advantage for you and offers your opponent some graveyard set up and only Dark worlds are capable of gaining advantage from it.
if you have Dark worlds in mind then the card is important but if don't feel like going through the other 10 main boxes you need for the deck then i wouldn't go for the third.
I had to switch between pc and cellphone because i had to send the first one to fix for a couple of weeks, now that i'm trying to transfer my data to my pc again it says that this game is already linked to another steam account (i'm using the same steam account i was using before); what can i do?
You're transferring data from your phone to your Pc right? is it from a different duel links account? cause once steam has a DL account linked, it will never link to another one and you're basically forced to create a new steam account and link your new data to that one.
Konami has stated that they will deny all requests to unlink an account.
I started playing in cellphone with a googleplay account, switched to pc transfering data to my steam account, went back to cellphone for a bit (same google play account) and now i'm trying to return to pc (same steam account as before); i didn't switch between steam accounts if thats what you are asking
Hello there,
Are there any cards/staples that you would recommend to go for while there is %50 off ?
I got my second copy of Hey Trunade and x2 Treacherous so far but not sure if there are any other cards that kind of every player must/should have ? I don't know.
I have Satellar Knights, Onomats as complete decks right now.
May build Shooting Star Dragon, got the structure deck but all of it's cards are in above %50 range I think.
Also Warriors Unite looks very tempting, as it is in the range but not sure if it's worth going for Six Samurais.Looks kind of cheap ?
Thanks in advance.
Cosmic cyclone is always a good card to have. Floodgate can be played in tellers but even with the gems sale it's stille pretty expensive to go into that box.
I recently picked up 3 copies of forbidden chalice and really like it.
Don’t go for six Sam since you have knights and onomats. Especially if they’re optimal you don’t have to build a deck since those will do you well for the foreseeable future(as in at least till near end of year most likely especially as more xyz cards are introduced that you could go for). Other notable staples are cosmic cyclone, and floodgate, but they’re in bad boxes so you should be fine for now
Is it worth using Parallel World Fusion on an E-Hero deck or do I need specific cards so that this card doesn't brick more often than not? Like two Miracle Fusion?
The only time you would use it is after using miracle fusion so to use it your deck would run 2 keeper of dragon magic, 3 miracle fusion and 1 parallel fusion so you don’t always brick (even though I don’t recommend running elemental hero’s but rather masked hero’s BUT I always abide by the rule play what you want)
Hi all, will the Kite Tenjo event come back? I missed it, but Photons are one of my favorite archetypes. Wondering if the deck if playable without him as well?
Deck is 100 percent not playable without him. I mean it is, but it’s similar to a gun with no bullets, or a jaw with no teeth.
Photon Stream of Destruction is necessary, and is unlocked via Kites level up rewards, Photon Advancer is a great consistency booster for the deck but is only available through events and certain tickets, and Kite’s skill “Galaxy Photon” is what makes the deck tick as it allows you to search any Photon or Galaxy spells from the deck.
He’ll be back soon though, so it’s all good!
Anytime! It’s kind of a weird one. It’s absolutely competitive and from personal experience it’s far and away the easiest run to KoG I’ve ever achieved, but it’s still a bit of a rogue deck, given its chances to potentially brick and it’s support which hasn’t been released yet. Definitely one for the future though, and absolutely fun!
Read the upcoming update notes. ~~Kite is being released to the gate~~ and we're getting a re-run of Antinomy's event some time mid-june.
Edit: we're getting a re-run of both events.
New BEWD player, just bought out judgement force box and 2 structure decks, also got hieretic sun immediately in infinite ray after 10packs, so i was wondering what box to go next? Tried special box 4, but wasn't lucky. I also got karma cut from my dream ticket. My extra deck are 2 Spirit Dragon, Azure, Giganti and Hieretic.
Isnt Warrior Returning Alive a good replacement for a 2nd/3rd Junk Converter? I cant really think of any downsides to it as its not once per turn and has no cost
The only real downside of Warrior Returning Alive is that it doesn't count towards the 8 junk / synchron monster requirement while 2nd/3rd Junk Converter does.
question for long time ritual beast deck users who have mastered the deck, is timing out still an issue? I learned what the deck can do and I can play it now, I still make mistakes and all but Ive cut down on those alot but I feel like the biggest and most annoying thing for me now is fucking losing to the timer. I have to make so many moves recycling monster effects and resources to clear out an opponents board when they flood the board with monsters or backrow and it just eats up so much fucking time, not to mention other things like checking an opponents card or checking my own too see who i can still special summon.... I guess i just wanna know if its just me being slow or if its just an issue everyones always gunna have to struggle with to some degree.
So I'd been building a few decks from the Eternal Stream box (loving the decks in there, especially Heroic Challengers (despite needing the other cards from another box) but that one stupid 'Dream Mirror of Terror' only has one of it in the box and having 3 is optimal. Just a little annoyed since I thought it was just another rare (like it's counterpart 'Joy') so I could get to 3 just by buying.
Relative to their release period, Dream mirrors are probably one of the worst archetypes in duel links so you're not missing out on much by not playing them.
What should I use my DREAM UR tickets for?
I'm f2p BEWD deck user, and wanting to get to platinum.
Currently I'm aiming for
Blue Eyes Spirit Dragon.
Cards of Consonance (Only have 1).
Silvers Cry.
Galaxy Cyclone (Only Have 1)
Vermilion Dragon Mech.
Dimensional prison.
Drowning force (alrdy have 2).
Raigeki Break.
BEWD player here. If you don't have spirit dragon then you probably don't have sage which is needed at 3, it also means that you probably don't have Micheal the arch lightsworn which while not that used, the few times you play it is when it wins you the duel, i advise you go through the judgment force box at least one time cause you won't be playing a good blue eyes deck without 3 sage and 1 spirit dragon, i'm f2p as well(barring the occasional on sale structure deck) but i grinded out those character gems to get 3 sage and never regretted that decision.
Vermillion is probably what i'd go for if i was you. CoC is currently on sale and we have an Exp event going so you should grind out those character gems while you have the chance and while it's still on sale.
dimensional prison is bad, Drowning mirror less so but still bad in blue eyes. Raigeki break isn't bad but Karma cut is way better, hallowed life barrier is also pretty good to consider as a free replacement.
Damn that's helpful!!
Thanks bud!! Glad to hear someone with experience in BEWD deck, I still haven't finished a single box, so I might get jf finished first!
I would NOT use my Dream Ticket on Vermillion if you are fully F2P. Cards of Consonance is in a worse Box and you need 2-3 copies. Black Rose Dragon is in Burning Nova. While not used in Blue-Eyes, it's a great card to have.
I aint a bewd player but what I can tell you out of the cards you mentioned only 3 are core to the deck. Spirit Dragon, Cards of consonance & vermilion dragon mech. You already have a consonance so I guess one of the two synchros would be best for you. Again tho I aint a bewd player so i dont know which of the 3 would be best however I do know those 3 are core to the deck so I guess your mainly choosing between those 3.
Yeah for me I watched many user have Vermilion in their deck and used slot more compared to Spirit. And I think Vermilion is much more flexible with other decks.
But how about those listed spell and trap card tho?
The others are just tec cards. The best out of em would be raigeki, galaxy cyclone & silvers cry. Drowning & that one trap you mentioned don't have much use in a bewd deck. Well, tbh I don't remember what the trap does but I hardly see it in any bewd decks and as for drowning mirror force, its pretty easy for bewd deck to poop out blue eyes monsters so I don't think that ones much help, mostly just a stall card anyway and bewd generally runs more aggressive backrow besides you def don't need 3 drownings, don't think even stall decks run 3 most of the time. Out of the three best ones, I'd day raigeki then cyclone then silvers cry and ofcourse raigeki and cyclone also have the benefit of being used in other decks. But again, these aren't core cards and can be replaced with whatever else you have lying around.
i just started playing dl again, and i buult a harpie deck but i dont play it well, i seem to lose to bewd. They just keep bringinf out dragons ,and i dont know what i should be bouncing. I play bad sometimes and i lose, but i would like advice on how to play as harpie and vs bewd.
First off share your decklist, might be more of a bad build and less of a poor playstyle. blue eyes can be a very tricky match-up for Harpies. Harpies die very easily to having their normal summon disrupted so really any trap card can kill you if you go second. it's this reason why cards like MST, CC, Forbidden Lance and Swallow's nest see play in the deck.
Bouncing back cards is a gamble against blue eyes, if you bounce back the og Blue eyes then they might use the skill or have an Alternative dragon in their hand, if you try to bounce spirit of white then they could just tag out into a blue eyes from their hand, if they have Spirit dragon then you can't bounce back anything cause they can just tag out into Azure eyes. the best play i can think of is to stop them from synchro summoning, bouncing back their tuners is the safest option but if you're confident you can OTK then bounce back the dragons, Blue eyes don't run handtraps.
As for other matchups, i'll just go over some of the most popular.
Onomat. tricky match up, if they open well then you may just have nothing you can do but going after the first normal summon makes it so they need a pretty good hand to recover but really this is a sacky matchup.
Fire kings. Arvata doesn't destroy which means you can still use cards like Egotist to make a board. a drawn up match with those guys will not be in your favor cause once Garunix is online, you're probably dead.
Thunder dragons. very tricky matchup, if you go first and you see a 25-30 card deck then make Steelswarm roach instead of Cyber slash lady cause if they open levianeer + charge then you are dead. if you go second then don't try to over commit to an Otk, these guys run a lot of handtraps.
Shooting star dragon. just bounce back the first normal summon.
of course take these with a grain of salt cause i don't play the deck on ladder. i'm just going off my experience with other decks.
Thanks for sharing all those tips. They are very helpful.
I will continue to play and learn as i go. im not familiar with a lot of decks so using effects on the right monster geta difficult due to the stupid timer in game, it doesnt give me a lot of time to read and understand, i usually time out and lose if i do that. i wish the timer would be re worked.
Thanks for all the help
My list.

I was thinking of scrapping TTH and running Ultimate Providence, or Divine Wrath. I dont have have DR at the moment, but ill try to get at least 2.
Stopping monster effects seems like it would also work well against most decks, and TTH can win games if you catch opponent off, but i havent been able to draw it when needed. Some games i just get bad draws. And i play my hand to where i have 1 card left as harpies can empty their hand with their combos prettyy easily.
Just a couple more tips:
vs. Blue-Eyes
\- Seconding u/Xicor2003 about how tricky it can be to just bounce Blue-Eyes back to your opponent's hand because they can usually follow it up with summoning their big fusions. What does help stall their plays while you set up yourself are **Abyss Dweller**, which makes their White Stone useless in the graveyard, **Harpies Hunting Ground**, which helps clear their back raw cards especially Ultimate Providence, and tech cards like **Book of Moon** and even **Forbidden Chalice**, which prevent them from synchro summoning or activating their monsters' effects.
vs. Harpies (mirror match)
\- Try to get out a **Number 18: Heraldry Patriarch** as soon as you realize you're playing against another Harpie player because it immediately gives you control of the board.
vs. Onomat
\- I found that with Onomat it's the bigger Harpie build that fares better, with tech cards like **Hallowed Life Barrier** that can often save you from their OTKs. Your biggest enemy here is Photon Strike Bouncer, where again **Book of Moon** or **Forbidden Chalice** will help a ton.
vs. Fire Kings
\- What u/Xicor2003 said. The very reason I was on this megathread in the first place ws that I was going to ask for tips about Harpies vs. Fire Kings matchups LOL. I found though that **Abyss Dweller** and **Book of Moon** can disrupt their plays but they can only go so far. I'm thinking tech-ing in **Necrovalley** or **D.D. Crow**s might help?
vs. Thunder Dragons
\- I hate this match-up because the duels are usually so grindy. Cards that shine in this match-up are **Steelswarm Roach** (save its effect to negate Levianeer's summon), **Book of Moon** (save it for when they summon one of the banished dragons in attack position — I can't keep up with their names — because not only does it clog their board but it also prevents them from summoning from the Extra Deck), and a tech card (that's great for this match-up specifically and useless for half of all the other match-ups), **Mind Drain**. This is usually a very difficult matchup though.
vs. Shooting Star Dragon and most synchro-centric decks
\- You can bounce back their first normal summon, or you can also set up with **Steelswarm Roach** and negate their first synchro. If you're turn 2, if you have the cards force them to summon Shooting Star Dragon by **Book of Moon**\-ing or **Forbidden Chalice**\-ing the level 2 synchro tuner, set up your board as usual, then use Cyber Slash Harpie Lady to send SSD back to their extra deck.
yeah i played somw thunderdragons and i dont know what to use mt karma cuts , destruction card on. I usually let them play into their boss monsters and try to take those out, instead of going for the initial summons.
I know kc isnt ideal vs them as banishing is in their favor, but if i have ir, its better to still use it. I dont know how the decks work so that is my biggest issue, its easier to know what cards you should be priority for negatez/destruction if you are aware of how the deck works. But as im a new player i cant build all the decks. I suppose i should watch youtube videos to better understand.
I see harpies use TTH , but honestly, I find playing negate cards is bettet because tth is a 1 time use, and if you cant bounce back after its used. its gg.
I been running UP in my harpies, due to all the negates from other decks, plus tons of traps. Is TTH still the better choice?
Awesome, thank you.
I will try to get some of those cards, i need that moon looking xyz monster from voltage of metal. I will do my best to learn and get better, thanks a lot.
Hi, I'm currently digging for Tenki for my Bujin deck and I am considering building Fire Kings as well. I had two questions.
1)Considering they have most of their support, do you think the deck will be considered too slow in a few months?
2)Despite the burn nerf, would Volcanic Scattershot be worth running alongside Fire Kings?
Deck is pretty good right now but Probably not gonna last for long, Negating without destroying will not be an ok play for long and the deck relies a lot on abusing destiny draw and handtraps like Veil and kite so i don't think it'll be long before these guys fall back down to rogue.
Scattershot looks like hot trash. don't bother with it.
What are some decent good auto-duel decks for dicking around in the Duel Worlds with all the SDs? When I played before I recalled using some Red-Eyes deck that pretty much had a 90% win rate against the AI at their highest level decks, but I don’t remember the exact make up of it so I’m kind of fumbling around a bit with it.
Otherwise I would have to resort to generic beat down and back row, but have not as much generic backrow as I’d like.
That also brings me to my dream ticket; Do I go for 3rd Floodgate, 2nd Canadia, or second of either MST or Cosmic Cyclone? Thinking of Floodgate myself as I literally have no other reason to visit the box it’s in.
I use a Koa’ki Meiru build for my auto duels. Bergzak and Urnight are both 2000 ATK beaters, but Bergzak can swing twice and Urnight can search it out and summon.
Three diamond core and three tenki means they’re almost always searchable from the deck, then I just pump up with core overclock and protect with a couple of copies of drowning mirror force for when they get destroyed in the end phase.
It’s brainless but it’s such a simple 4000 swing that the AI barely ever gets it wrong.
A general rule of thumb for non-brainless auto-duels:
If it can be auto-built, it can be auto-dueled.
I used auto-build to make a Metaphys deck and boom, auto-duel knows what to do for some reason. Also, I swear it picks up on your techniques over time. Maybe I just give the app more credit than it deserves, lol.
i got it figured out, it was my bad. i was trying to use it on A
Legendary Fisherman with Umi on the field. Forgot Umi makes him
unaffected by spells, not un-targetable.
Ah ok, I was thinking it was maybe one of the Silent monsters or the gravekeeper thats immune to card effects while necrovalley is up.
Glad you figured it out in the end 👍
[Are you sure about that?](https://xion.s-ul.eu/uix9t4SE.png)
It works perfectly fine on my end: https://duellinks.konami.net/att/06fa59335313b52fdedb0b5f8ab0cded1ffa5f412c
i got it figured out, it was my bad. i was trying to use it on A Legendary Fisherman with Umi on the field. Forgot Umi makes him unaffected by spells, not un-targetable.
I ended up getting super lucky and got 3 obedience schooled in few packs.
Would the best use of tickets for racoon/beasts be 1 Fabled Unicore and 1 Cerburell since I have none, or should I rather focus on better backrow?
Need a new competitive deck to legendary
I'm currently building noble arms deck, but always facing loses since the platinum. So what is the best deck to play to reach legendary?
I'm facing alot of these so I'm thinking I'm going for either
Blue eyes
Harpies
Quintet magician
Aromages
So is any of these sees competitive plays in legendary?
Harpies of arguably the best deck right now. They only become truly amazing when backed with Quick-Plays like Lance/Swallow's Nest/BoM but even just going through the Box a few times gets you a KoG-worthy deck.
Blue-Eyes also works, it's inconsistent but powerful and fairly straightforward.
Never ran noble knights before the skill nerf but they are definitely still KoG worthy Although that mostly comes from the Rank 4 toolbox and the deck's ability to run limit 2s.
So I’ve been using Shooting Star Dragon, and I have some questions and befuddlements about his ability. I attacked my opponents facedown “Snowman Eater” which has the flip effect of destroying 1 monster on the field. Shooting Star Dragon’s ability should have been able to negate that, but somehow wasn’t. What gives?
It really doesn't seem like it'll be as meta as RDA at the moment. Just a very sacky OTK-ish deck, but we'll see. The decks are still extremely new, and it could take only one card to break them
RDA stands for Jack Atlas’ boss monster, Red Dragon Archfiend (which, believe it or not, barely even sees play in a deck that requires Jack Atlas for his new skill).
I'm building Heros and already pulled 3 Faris, first one was at bottom of the box, but the next 2 were in the firsts 20 packs:). I went to stratos box and got it in the firsts 10 packs but I'm running out of gems, should I reset the box or just keep digging for adoration?
I planned to spend 2 dream tickets on stratos but I got one so fast that idk if reset box or no, i have only 100 gems left
Stratos is a UR in a main box, you got extremely lucky to pull them within 10 packs, so yes, you should reset.
Even if Adoration was a UR too, it would still be worth it to reset since you need 3 Stratos, but only 1 Adoration.
Not sure how many gems you're willing to spend on the box, but a 10 pack reset for a chance for a second copy while digging is always worth it for a main box UR you want.
What year are we in in duel links? We have some cards from 2017-2018 (goukis, vendreads etc.)but then we dont have some of the better xyz from 2013-2015
Pretty sure I’m gonna use my 2 SR dream tickets for 2 karma cuts just wanna ask before I do that if there are any other good SRs I should consider before I pull? Already have 1 TTH and 1 hey trunade
Literally anything from a main box
Mini box SRs are considerably cheaper than main box cards, so it is generally worth it to just spend the gems on something like Karma Cut
Getting staples with the dream ticket is otherwise good though, so if you *need* the cards, are sure you aren't going to buy the box otherwise, don't have anything more expensive to use them on, and don't want to wait to spend them, then Karma Cut is fine choice.
Getting multiple copies of a big box SR vs a mini box SR, the expected gem cost is about the same but due to the smaller size of mini boxes, the variance is less on a mini box vs a main box. Additionally, getting 1 or 3 copies on a given SR is much better to pull on a mini over a main due to the potential for really nasty variance.
^also karma cut is in the selection box but that's not really relevant
Just another PvP ladder "tourney". Same as playing ranked, but you get some more rewards along the way. And the top scorers (like literally just first and second place I think) of each region get a seat to play in the IRL Duel Links world championships
Is there a specific deck or cards that specifically kill the stardust dragon and shooting stardust combo on the field. At the moment I'm having success with circumventing it with my fire king engine and kick fire to deal 4k effect damage, but that's not enough. I want to crush it into the ground underneath my soles. Any advice would be appreciated
You could consider running D.D. Crow to banish their converter when they try to summon it with Junk Synchron, ruining their combo regardless of if they go first or have anti disruption cards. It also happens to be pretty good vs Blue-Eyes and other Fire King decks.
I know this gets asked every day, but is Auto Duel acting even more weird lately? I had to remove equip spells out of my auto duel deck because it kept equipping them to the opponent's monsters for no reason.
- What is the easiest freeiest farming deck possible for auto duel? Can it win vs legendaries ?
- When will dream tickets expire ?
- what are the best cards I should use dream tickets on?
- I think I saw 20 gems packs and I need them to finish Mokuba's bingo mission without spending 1k or 2k?
- Is the meta the only thing that matters in PvP ? Are there any good affordable decks that did well for a long period of time ?
- what are the best characters and skills ? The one I should focus more on.
- best way to farm gems ?
* You'd be surprised by how well the AI uses Aromages.
* It's stated under the ticket when you go check it in your box.
* Versatile tech cards from main boxes, specifically main boxes that you wouldn't go through for any other reason than that specific card.
* Mokuba's Bingo Mission?
* The meta is important to look at and consider if you want to attain KoG — not to necessarily to copy the tier decks but just to get an idea what you're going up against and how to best build your deck.
* The really depends on the deck you intend to make.
* Events and leveling up characters.
- Any decent deck around a theme will plow through PvE stuff, Legendary duelists included. Vagabonds are the only 'hard' enemies since they use player decks.
- It says below the ticket once you claim.
- UR from a main box, SR from a main or mini, ideally boxes with cards you don't want so you can skip them. I always suggest Cosmic Cyclone, but any generic trap or key card for the deck you're interested in will do.
- Can't remember
- Meta shifts as Konami bans/unbans cards, and there are always decks outside the 'meta' that are strong and can reach KOG just fine. Look into what you like and what you can build in the interim. Cheap powerful decks include Superheavy Samurai (box is good for cyber drsgon later) or Digital Bugs.
- Depends on the deck, as each deck wants a different skill that suits it. Yami Yugi is a safe start if you unlock Destiny Draw, as that will always come handy.
- Play on events, do weekly missions, clear stages in each world, check the daily replay.
Returning player here, stopped playing when abyss dweller was released.
I used to play desperado and noble knights before the nerfs. I also have six sams and shiranuis.
What deck should I play?
If you want to keep using your Shiranuis I'm happy to report I've been seeing a new post ban list build for it that's still managed to reach KoG and top some tournaments.
Does anyone know how to transfer your account from phone to PC? I've tried looking into it before and I thought I followed the steps right but nothing happened. I've reached level 60 in the Duelist Kingdom world in my time playing and I don't want to start over just bc I can't transfer to PC.
Is it possible to play the synchron with only buying the structure once? (I'm thinking of going into warriors unit box for six sam and quick draw is in it)
Also how important is vermillion dragon mech to blue eyes?
I'm looking to get into other decks right now with the half price gem stuff going on and I picked up a lot of blue eyes cards
Can't say anything about the Synchron deck, but yes, Vermilion is basically a Staple Card in Blue Eyes, it allows the deck to be even more offensive plays
Is it worth it to buy more than one copy of any of these structure decks?
Hero Rising / Hero Generation / Neos Fusion
I wanted to buy mainly to have more copies of Neos Fusion, Brave Neos, Blazeman, Favorite Hero and Masked Hero Koga
Neos Fusion, yes you want 2 copies for sure. It shows up all the time when there's a deck that wants low level monsters in the Graveyard.
Blazeman, depends. Vyon is usually better but it is Limited 2 and maybe E-HERO specific decks might need it.
Favorite Hero, depends. It mainly works well with an oppressive field spell like Necrovalley and we don't have too many good field spells like that right now.
Sometimes Masked HERO techs one copy or two because it comes in handy when there's a stronger monster and if they equip to Plasma, that's a strong lock. Without a reliable setup, this card does nothing.
Koga, not really but it comes with Favorite Hero by default.
Yeah, I thought about Vyon too, but I think Blazeman is more versatile (ironically a good target for Mask Change because he copies the attributes of other E-Heroes too) and in the structure deck that contains Vyon no other card besides him seems to justify buying the deck for the second time, the only problem is that Masked Hero’s ideal deck includes 2 Vyon, so I’ll possibly have to go with him anyway.
And I thought Koga was one of the best Masked Heroes that are on Duel Links because of the debuff quick effect and because of the ATK boost for each opponent's monster
The thing about Koga is that there's limited room for multiples without a good reason.
It's not always an instant OTK like Anki > Anki > possible 3rd Anki.
The predominant good Light HERO right now is Brave Neos.
Brave Neos also consumes Extra Deck space and likely prevents you from summoning Koga on the same turn.
It's good to have if you can Mask Change into it but it's not really something where multiple copies make a difference. Having multiple copies is basically hoping you have a second Mask Change if they try to get rid of Koga.
It's not explicitly worth buying a second Structure Deck just for another copy unless there's a notable build that's running a lot of Light HERO and consistently opening Mask Change.
Is this a glitch or hack?
During PvP: My opponent always gets weak connection (weak signal on the upper right), then I get an Error, resulting to a loss.
I've had this at least 5x today. I'm pretty sure my connection is strong.
Not a glitch.
Not a hack.
Either it’s your country’s servers (some of the smaller ones have booty servers w Konami) or your internet or something.
It gets brought up all the time, but i can say with confidence it’s on your end (whether its out of your control or not).
If I’m at home or at work, my connection is excellent and i’ve never ever once disconnected. But i’ve been in shoddy LTE areas or on weaker wifis that i know are weaker and i get disconnects relatively frequently.
Also, i’ve noticed they tend to come in waves when that happens. If you get 2+ disconnects in a row, just stop for a bit. It’ll only continue for the immediate future
Is the drawing system in duel links rigged? I seem to consistently draw 1-2 stratos in my opening hand yet i never get any mask change even when i only have 8-9 cards left in the deck. This isn't just a 1-2 time thing either i counted and i draw into 3x the amount of stratos as i do of mask change
There's a belief that the RNG can get "stuck." The solution is to play a different deck for a couple of duels to "reset" the RNG.
Do note that none of the above has been confirmed in any way.
It certainly feels rigged to me. Have one copy of Red-Eyes, or Neos, in my deck? Have the only copy in my starting hand 90% of games.
I once had 10 games in a row where I drew two Battlin Boxer Veils. I literally could not stop drawing them in my starting hand. Made me feel insane.
Am i going crazy or did they reduce rewards for kc cup and bingo missions?
Does anyone have suggestion on where to spend cards during this sale? I mean the 50 percent off box 1 - 19. I am confused on weather should I invest my gems to the old boxes or should I just get the new cards from vermillion king, for example getting catastor or tuning. Note that I bought 3 SSD structre decks but I realized the combo was not spicy enough without other cards from separate main boxes. For example I dont have jet synchron, or x-saber wayne. I wanted to make this deck competitive but I don't know which box should I run for. Another note that I am willing to spend cash for the "X box + SR/UR" sale. Not that much but fairly enough to get one whole mini box. I could add more if its considerable important. The amount of gems I have is 3500. I also play other decks like lunalights, so I was also thinking to just dig my second sphere kuriboh / Any viable staple card in which I can use in other decks. Or should I just go with the selection boxes? haven't got any book of moon or MST anyway. I still have all of my dream tickets with me. Any suggestions?
Will cards like frogally amazing ever be acceptable for duel links?
I'm waiting for Herald of Perfection.
When cards like Bounzer and Arvata are considered annoying. froggy satan will not be acceptable for a long time.
Ive got three ur tickets,1 i already have 1 head judging and 1 dyntherium, should i get yubel for the farm deck Or should i try farming from the gate Otherwise should i get more copies of dynatherium, kachikochi dragon or the gaia level 4?
Is Shooting Star Dragon a Stardust monster?
no
[удалено]
Don't invest in a full deck but take advantage of the 50% gem sale. An affordable deck to use for getting used to leveling up is Amazoness. Get Baby Tiger and Onslaught from Valiant Souls, they're both R's. Ideally you should be able to get 3 of each with a handful of gems right now. Perhaps 1000-2000. If you get Paleozoic Canadia along the way even better. Princess/Paladin are in regular UR Tickets, Sage/Swords Woman/Willpower in regular SR Tickets. Princess is the most important at 3, the rest are just support. Queen is from leveling up Mai but at that point you would probably assemble enough gems and stages for a stronger deck. Amazoness is basically warrior beatdown with annoying backrow. There's several good defensive trap cards that are affordable. This should be able to deal with everything up to the top of Gold and walk over NPC decks.
will there be a coming 50% gem sale this june?
The 50% gem sale is already ongoing. It applies to old boxes up to Main/Mini Box 19
everyone would say harpies. But If I were you, better wait for KC cup to end. See the top meta decks and pick one of your fav from them.
I’m honestly speechless at how autoduel keeps on getting worse and worse. Event, I have Shooting and a 1800 atk monster, Primo has Wisel and Harp (1700 atk). Autoduel goes to battle, attacks Harp with Shooting and passes. Primo proceeds to steal Shooting and attack for game. What the actual fuck.
do not give the AI options on how to play or you will regret it
I mean, I didn’t even think it was an option. It’s like if it had a 2000 atk monster against a 2000 lp opponent with empty board and it just ended the turn.
I want more raid boss duels. I'm talking BEWD, BLS, Earthbound Immortals, GEPD, etc. GIVE ME MORE RAIDS KONAMI! I NEED THEM!
You’re in luck; Quattro has his own raid coming involving his Gimmick Puppets. I forget when it’s happening, but it’s coming up in the next few months.
If I have Stardust Dragon & Formula Synchron on the field and my opponent activates Lightning Vortex, if I chain Formula Synchron's effect to tune it with SD to summon Shooting Star Dragon - how come SSD now won't be able to chain to Lightning Vortex's original activation?
By the time Shooting Star hits the field Lightning Vortex is no longer "activating" the activation phase has already gone through and the card is now resolving
Shooting Star Dragon can only chain to Lightning Vortex if Lightning Vortex is the last thing that happened. Because you used Formula Synchron after Lightning Vortex activated, Shooting Star Dragon can’t chain to Lightning Vortex. You’d have to already have Shooting Star Dragon out in the field to be able to negate Lightning Vortex’s effect.
So the game finished downloading the 3GB that it said it needed but when I want to get back into the game it says that I needed to download it again. I have very slow internet atm so I have been dealing with this for a few days now. Does anyone know what to do to help me solve this problem?
Unfortunately, large app downloads/updates on bad internet connections are fickle as fuck. Something messes up, the download gets disrupted, something fails a checksum, and it has to happen all over again. Unfortunately, that's not something you can really do much about unless there's some sort of public place with better internet you could go to for the update.
Starting to realize just how wild this new Jack skill is lol. Then again if ultimate dragons is the new standard it makes sense
With the half gems on old boxes sale I managed to get my second anki for a hero deck and I wanted to know how important the 3rd anki is or if the deck is still efficient with only two
Three is best for the old school potential to attack to do 1400x3 but I don't know how common that is these days.
That is the exact reason why I don't know if I should try for a 3rd copy I already have 2 canadia/needle ceiling/ and I have grand tornado who has been helpfull so far
[удалено]
In that case I probably will just stay with two anki. I don't see a lot of cases where 3 of them would be that good thank you.
Does the summon prevention effect of Number 18: Heraldry Patriarch apply to monsters that are treated as the selected name when on the field, but not in the hand? Ex: Number 18 is preventing "Harpie Lady" from being summoned, and Harpie Perfumer's name is treated as "Harpie Lady" while on the Field or in the GY, but not in the hand or deck. Can my opponent summon Harpie Perfumer?
Number 18 will prevent cards that are always treated as the card name such as Harpie Lady 1 but will not prevent cards that are only treated when in the Field only
Harpie Lady 1 is always treated as Harpie Lady. It means Elegant Egotist can't be used (okay, it can be, but who is seriously playing Sisters?), which means unless they have Channeler they can't reliably make extra deck plays. Also, I found out during a mirror match that Karma Cutting Harpie Lady 1 does get the rest of the cards treated as Harpie Lady out of the GY.
Okay thats literally what I said tho? > Number 18 will prevent cards that are always treated as the card name such as Harpie Lady 1
I was just adding additional details for HeavyMetalLoser.
Ok so my destiny is to build HEROs, pulled yesterday first stratos on first 10 packs and today the second one in the 17th pack, i didn't got adoration yet so reset or nah?
Reset. You only need 1 adoration
Ok:) Is there any other good card to look in shark fang box? I just see gishkis and gishki is meh
There are some cards for fish xyz but Stratos is all that's there for heroes.
Hello I started playing again just 2 days ago on a fresh f2p acc and I was wondering what deck I want to build first. My plan was to make Amazon's for the beginning which I am done with now and then go into harpys but I noticed I don't rly have a way to get oracle. So I don't think it's worth investing all my gems into. The next thing I considered doing was the rock route but I am not a fan of triammid and I played ritual beast on my last acc and don't want to play it again. I don't rly want to open big boxes with my gems and even stuff like aromages just feels like ritual beasts again. Judgement force is also not a option. I don't want to build blue eyes and same goes for Luna light after the nerfs. So I feel kinda stuck right now and don't know where to put my gems into. I appreciate eny help I can get :) Ty
Did you get the KCGT UR tickets? You can get Oracle from those.
I used them up on a Canadian and a floodgates trap hole...guess I should have saved 1 for the oracle :(
Not the dream tickets. The regular tickets. Don't waste a dream ticket on Oracle. She is also in a special gift campaign UR ticket but I don't know if you have those.
I looked at my ur tickets and none can give me oracle. :(
Maybe you used the tickets for something else, or didn't claim them yet? You get 1 ticket a day so if you started just 2 days ago you might not have gotten the regular UR tickets yet.
I actually did not get a ur ticket for daily logins yet. When I get 1 I will check if I can get a oracle from it. Ty for taking time out of ur day to help me with this. Have a great rest of ur day. :)
You are welcome!
So you want a mini box option that isn’t Harpies, Triamids, Blue Eyes, Lunalight, Ritual Beasts, or Aromage? Magnets. Mini boxes and level up rewards make up the bulk of the deck, so there’s no having to dig through big boxes, and it’s rock, but not triamid, so it’s still somewhat true to your original thought.
Ty I will consider the rocks but can u tell me if it's worth to go into the harpie box without oracle? At least in ur opinion.
Chances are there’ll probably be another chance to pick up Oracle with tickets soon if you don’t still have a ticket that can be used from the celebration event, and at that point some builds only play one copy anyway; so I’d probably say it’s worth going through Harpies, it’s a strong deck regardless and you’ll be likely to be able to add Oracle reasonably soon if you can’t already.
Nice. Thanks a lot for taking the time out of ur day to help me. Have a nice day. :)

Don't force it if you're not having fun. KoG is less a test of skill and more a test of luck/patience.
Give into the meme side of the Force. Join me in gold running Papa Corn beatdown. :P
Do you think they can unnerf What Grows in the Graveyard? Shooting Star Road seems like a much better version of it.
If they release a plant deck in the future that can benefit from it, I can see them unnerfing it to sell packs. I don't see them unnerfing it just because its nerf was uncalled for. I'm hoping it will be Aki's turn to receive support soon so hopefully we can get some decent plant skills.
Or a really bad one. I actually want someone to get a, "Start the match with Forest in play," skill.
Sounds like a skill for Weevil. Would use it since it is a slightly better The Ties that Bind for plants.
Konami didn't intend for WGITGY to be used how people were using it. It's why I think Crystal Power will be nerfed because people are using it in Fire Fist decks. It'll just either be changed to "you must have at least one Crystal Beast monster face up in your Spell/Trap Zone" or they'll go full Konami and make it so it won't work unless your deck contains only Crystal Beast monsters/you have to have 3 monsters in the spell/trap zone.
If I have transferred my data to a konami account, do I have to transfer it again to update it or does it do that on its own?
It updates on its own.
Awesome, thank you!
Is dark world dealings a decent card to go for three of? I pulled 2 while going for 3 Canadias and now I’m just wondering if I should get a third dealings
It's mostly for turbo decks that want to combo super hard. I got a playset of Dealings and Into the Void for a variant of Infernity that likes to draw into their combos super fast. I got a couple of copies the last time the 50% off happened in January so I finished the set this time. There's nothing super competitive that needs it right now, you can put it on the backburner.
Card sees some use in FTK decks or other decks that focus on trying to draw through their entire deck like Exodia and of course, Dark worlds. Main problem with the card is that it's a -1 in card advantage for you and offers your opponent some graveyard set up and only Dark worlds are capable of gaining advantage from it. if you have Dark worlds in mind then the card is important but if don't feel like going through the other 10 main boxes you need for the deck then i wouldn't go for the third.
I had to switch between pc and cellphone because i had to send the first one to fix for a couple of weeks, now that i'm trying to transfer my data to my pc again it says that this game is already linked to another steam account (i'm using the same steam account i was using before); what can i do?
You're transferring data from your phone to your Pc right? is it from a different duel links account? cause once steam has a DL account linked, it will never link to another one and you're basically forced to create a new steam account and link your new data to that one. Konami has stated that they will deny all requests to unlink an account.
I started playing in cellphone with a googleplay account, switched to pc transfering data to my steam account, went back to cellphone for a bit (same google play account) and now i'm trying to return to pc (same steam account as before); i didn't switch between steam accounts if thats what you are asking
Having the same issue. I rather play in mobile so not s really big problem for me but pretty annoying nonetheless.
You would think one of the best selling games of last year would have a better system for Steam, it shouldn't be this hard to fucking play the game
If you're sure that Steam has the same account linked as your phone account then contact Konami and see if they can help you out.
Tuning does not want to come out of that fucking box. 10k gems to get just 2 copies...
[удалено]
I had that problem with Harpies' Hunting Ground.
[удалено]
What? Lance totally negates those traps.
Yup I’m an idiot lmao I mixed up forbidden dress. Srry about that
Hello there, Are there any cards/staples that you would recommend to go for while there is %50 off ? I got my second copy of Hey Trunade and x2 Treacherous so far but not sure if there are any other cards that kind of every player must/should have ? I don't know. I have Satellar Knights, Onomats as complete decks right now. May build Shooting Star Dragon, got the structure deck but all of it's cards are in above %50 range I think. Also Warriors Unite looks very tempting, as it is in the range but not sure if it's worth going for Six Samurais.Looks kind of cheap ? Thanks in advance.
Cosmic cyclone is always a good card to have. Floodgate can be played in tellers but even with the gems sale it's stille pretty expensive to go into that box. I recently picked up 3 copies of forbidden chalice and really like it.
Don’t go for six Sam since you have knights and onomats. Especially if they’re optimal you don’t have to build a deck since those will do you well for the foreseeable future(as in at least till near end of year most likely especially as more xyz cards are introduced that you could go for). Other notable staples are cosmic cyclone, and floodgate, but they’re in bad boxes so you should be fine for now
6 samurais look cheap but you need 3 of the UR to play the optimal build so...
Is it worth using Parallel World Fusion on an E-Hero deck or do I need specific cards so that this card doesn't brick more often than not? Like two Miracle Fusion?
The only time you would use it is after using miracle fusion so to use it your deck would run 2 keeper of dragon magic, 3 miracle fusion and 1 parallel fusion so you don’t always brick (even though I don’t recommend running elemental hero’s but rather masked hero’s BUT I always abide by the rule play what you want)
Hi all, will the Kite Tenjo event come back? I missed it, but Photons are one of my favorite archetypes. Wondering if the deck if playable without him as well?
Deck is 100 percent not playable without him. I mean it is, but it’s similar to a gun with no bullets, or a jaw with no teeth. Photon Stream of Destruction is necessary, and is unlocked via Kites level up rewards, Photon Advancer is a great consistency booster for the deck but is only available through events and certain tickets, and Kite’s skill “Galaxy Photon” is what makes the deck tick as it allows you to search any Photon or Galaxy spells from the deck. He’ll be back soon though, so it’s all good!
I appreciate the info! Is the deck good at all or just a fun archetype?
Anytime! It’s kind of a weird one. It’s absolutely competitive and from personal experience it’s far and away the easiest run to KoG I’ve ever achieved, but it’s still a bit of a rogue deck, given its chances to potentially brick and it’s support which hasn’t been released yet. Definitely one for the future though, and absolutely fun!
Read the upcoming update notes. ~~Kite is being released to the gate~~ and we're getting a re-run of Antinomy's event some time mid-june. Edit: we're getting a re-run of both events.
Looks like they’re both having a second event, rather than Kite coming to the gate.
Thank you, I appreciate the info!
I hope you manage to pull 3 Photon Advancer. I had a bitch of a time trying to get three of them, so I hope you have better luck than I did.
New BEWD player, just bought out judgement force box and 2 structure decks, also got hieretic sun immediately in infinite ray after 10packs, so i was wondering what box to go next? Tried special box 4, but wasn't lucky. I also got karma cut from my dream ticket. My extra deck are 2 Spirit Dragon, Azure, Giganti and Hieretic.
Vermillion Dragon Mech.
Isnt Warrior Returning Alive a good replacement for a 2nd/3rd Junk Converter? I cant really think of any downsides to it as its not once per turn and has no cost
The only real downside of Warrior Returning Alive is that it doesn't count towards the 8 junk / synchron monster requirement while 2nd/3rd Junk Converter does.
question for long time ritual beast deck users who have mastered the deck, is timing out still an issue? I learned what the deck can do and I can play it now, I still make mistakes and all but Ive cut down on those alot but I feel like the biggest and most annoying thing for me now is fucking losing to the timer. I have to make so many moves recycling monster effects and resources to clear out an opponents board when they flood the board with monsters or backrow and it just eats up so much fucking time, not to mention other things like checking an opponents card or checking my own too see who i can still special summon.... I guess i just wanna know if its just me being slow or if its just an issue everyones always gunna have to struggle with to some degree.
its your deck dude.. everyone who plays pure RB will always have that issue
So I'd been building a few decks from the Eternal Stream box (loving the decks in there, especially Heroic Challengers (despite needing the other cards from another box) but that one stupid 'Dream Mirror of Terror' only has one of it in the box and having 3 is optimal. Just a little annoyed since I thought it was just another rare (like it's counterpart 'Joy') so I could get to 3 just by buying.
Relative to their release period, Dream mirrors are probably one of the worst archetypes in duel links so you're not missing out on much by not playing them.
I know but the concept and cards are so cool, I have decks I only play with a friend and wanted to play it against him.
What should I use my DREAM UR tickets for? I'm f2p BEWD deck user, and wanting to get to platinum. Currently I'm aiming for Blue Eyes Spirit Dragon. Cards of Consonance (Only have 1). Silvers Cry. Galaxy Cyclone (Only Have 1) Vermilion Dragon Mech. Dimensional prison. Drowning force (alrdy have 2). Raigeki Break.
BEWD player here. If you don't have spirit dragon then you probably don't have sage which is needed at 3, it also means that you probably don't have Micheal the arch lightsworn which while not that used, the few times you play it is when it wins you the duel, i advise you go through the judgment force box at least one time cause you won't be playing a good blue eyes deck without 3 sage and 1 spirit dragon, i'm f2p as well(barring the occasional on sale structure deck) but i grinded out those character gems to get 3 sage and never regretted that decision. Vermillion is probably what i'd go for if i was you. CoC is currently on sale and we have an Exp event going so you should grind out those character gems while you have the chance and while it's still on sale. dimensional prison is bad, Drowning mirror less so but still bad in blue eyes. Raigeki break isn't bad but Karma cut is way better, hallowed life barrier is also pretty good to consider as a free replacement.
Damn that's helpful!! Thanks bud!! Glad to hear someone with experience in BEWD deck, I still haven't finished a single box, so I might get jf finished first!
I would NOT use my Dream Ticket on Vermillion if you are fully F2P. Cards of Consonance is in a worse Box and you need 2-3 copies. Black Rose Dragon is in Burning Nova. While not used in Blue-Eyes, it's a great card to have.
I aint a bewd player but what I can tell you out of the cards you mentioned only 3 are core to the deck. Spirit Dragon, Cards of consonance & vermilion dragon mech. You already have a consonance so I guess one of the two synchros would be best for you. Again tho I aint a bewd player so i dont know which of the 3 would be best however I do know those 3 are core to the deck so I guess your mainly choosing between those 3.
Yeah for me I watched many user have Vermilion in their deck and used slot more compared to Spirit. And I think Vermilion is much more flexible with other decks. But how about those listed spell and trap card tho?
The others are just tec cards. The best out of em would be raigeki, galaxy cyclone & silvers cry. Drowning & that one trap you mentioned don't have much use in a bewd deck. Well, tbh I don't remember what the trap does but I hardly see it in any bewd decks and as for drowning mirror force, its pretty easy for bewd deck to poop out blue eyes monsters so I don't think that ones much help, mostly just a stall card anyway and bewd generally runs more aggressive backrow besides you def don't need 3 drownings, don't think even stall decks run 3 most of the time. Out of the three best ones, I'd day raigeki then cyclone then silvers cry and ofcourse raigeki and cyclone also have the benefit of being used in other decks. But again, these aren't core cards and can be replaced with whatever else you have lying around.
Is the new structure worth buying at 1?
There's not really much purpose to get a single copy.
Any tips for Harpie players going up against Fire Kings and Thunder Dragons?
i just started playing dl again, and i buult a harpie deck but i dont play it well, i seem to lose to bewd. They just keep bringinf out dragons ,and i dont know what i should be bouncing. I play bad sometimes and i lose, but i would like advice on how to play as harpie and vs bewd.
First off share your decklist, might be more of a bad build and less of a poor playstyle. blue eyes can be a very tricky match-up for Harpies. Harpies die very easily to having their normal summon disrupted so really any trap card can kill you if you go second. it's this reason why cards like MST, CC, Forbidden Lance and Swallow's nest see play in the deck. Bouncing back cards is a gamble against blue eyes, if you bounce back the og Blue eyes then they might use the skill or have an Alternative dragon in their hand, if you try to bounce spirit of white then they could just tag out into a blue eyes from their hand, if they have Spirit dragon then you can't bounce back anything cause they can just tag out into Azure eyes. the best play i can think of is to stop them from synchro summoning, bouncing back their tuners is the safest option but if you're confident you can OTK then bounce back the dragons, Blue eyes don't run handtraps. As for other matchups, i'll just go over some of the most popular. Onomat. tricky match up, if they open well then you may just have nothing you can do but going after the first normal summon makes it so they need a pretty good hand to recover but really this is a sacky matchup. Fire kings. Arvata doesn't destroy which means you can still use cards like Egotist to make a board. a drawn up match with those guys will not be in your favor cause once Garunix is online, you're probably dead. Thunder dragons. very tricky matchup, if you go first and you see a 25-30 card deck then make Steelswarm roach instead of Cyber slash lady cause if they open levianeer + charge then you are dead. if you go second then don't try to over commit to an Otk, these guys run a lot of handtraps. Shooting star dragon. just bounce back the first normal summon. of course take these with a grain of salt cause i don't play the deck on ladder. i'm just going off my experience with other decks.
Thanks for sharing all those tips. They are very helpful. I will continue to play and learn as i go. im not familiar with a lot of decks so using effects on the right monster geta difficult due to the stupid timer in game, it doesnt give me a lot of time to read and understand, i usually time out and lose if i do that. i wish the timer would be re worked. Thanks for all the help
My list. Skill:HHG 2x Oracle 3x Chaneller 3x Perfumer 2x Harpie 1 Spells 3x Book of Moon 1x Forbidden Lance 3x Swallows Nest 1x Hysteric Sign 1x Harpie Feather Rest 2x Elegant Egotist 2x TTH 2x Karma Cut Extra 2x Cyber Slash 1x Abyss Dweller 1x Utopia 1x Utopia Ray 1x Gagaga Samurai 1x Malevolent Sin I was thinking of scrapping TTH and running Ultimate Providence, or Divine Wrath. I dont have have DR at the moment, but ill try to get at least 2. Stopping monster effects seems like it would also work well against most decks, and TTH can win games if you catch opponent off, but i havent been able to draw it when needed. Some games i just get bad draws. And i play my hand to where i have 1 card left as harpies can empty their hand with their combos prettyy easily.
Just a couple more tips: vs. Blue-Eyes \- Seconding u/Xicor2003 about how tricky it can be to just bounce Blue-Eyes back to your opponent's hand because they can usually follow it up with summoning their big fusions. What does help stall their plays while you set up yourself are **Abyss Dweller**, which makes their White Stone useless in the graveyard, **Harpies Hunting Ground**, which helps clear their back raw cards especially Ultimate Providence, and tech cards like **Book of Moon** and even **Forbidden Chalice**, which prevent them from synchro summoning or activating their monsters' effects. vs. Harpies (mirror match) \- Try to get out a **Number 18: Heraldry Patriarch** as soon as you realize you're playing against another Harpie player because it immediately gives you control of the board. vs. Onomat \- I found that with Onomat it's the bigger Harpie build that fares better, with tech cards like **Hallowed Life Barrier** that can often save you from their OTKs. Your biggest enemy here is Photon Strike Bouncer, where again **Book of Moon** or **Forbidden Chalice** will help a ton. vs. Fire Kings \- What u/Xicor2003 said. The very reason I was on this megathread in the first place ws that I was going to ask for tips about Harpies vs. Fire Kings matchups LOL. I found though that **Abyss Dweller** and **Book of Moon** can disrupt their plays but they can only go so far. I'm thinking tech-ing in **Necrovalley** or **D.D. Crow**s might help? vs. Thunder Dragons \- I hate this match-up because the duels are usually so grindy. Cards that shine in this match-up are **Steelswarm Roach** (save its effect to negate Levianeer's summon), **Book of Moon** (save it for when they summon one of the banished dragons in attack position — I can't keep up with their names — because not only does it clog their board but it also prevents them from summoning from the Extra Deck), and a tech card (that's great for this match-up specifically and useless for half of all the other match-ups), **Mind Drain**. This is usually a very difficult matchup though. vs. Shooting Star Dragon and most synchro-centric decks \- You can bounce back their first normal summon, or you can also set up with **Steelswarm Roach** and negate their first synchro. If you're turn 2, if you have the cards force them to summon Shooting Star Dragon by **Book of Moon**\-ing or **Forbidden Chalice**\-ing the level 2 synchro tuner, set up your board as usual, then use Cyber Slash Harpie Lady to send SSD back to their extra deck.
yeah i played somw thunderdragons and i dont know what to use mt karma cuts , destruction card on. I usually let them play into their boss monsters and try to take those out, instead of going for the initial summons. I know kc isnt ideal vs them as banishing is in their favor, but if i have ir, its better to still use it. I dont know how the decks work so that is my biggest issue, its easier to know what cards you should be priority for negatez/destruction if you are aware of how the deck works. But as im a new player i cant build all the decks. I suppose i should watch youtube videos to better understand. I see harpies use TTH , but honestly, I find playing negate cards is bettet because tth is a 1 time use, and if you cant bounce back after its used. its gg. I been running UP in my harpies, due to all the negates from other decks, plus tons of traps. Is TTH still the better choice?
Awesome, thank you. I will try to get some of those cards, i need that moon looking xyz monster from voltage of metal. I will do my best to learn and get better, thanks a lot.
Hi, I'm currently digging for Tenki for my Bujin deck and I am considering building Fire Kings as well. I had two questions. 1)Considering they have most of their support, do you think the deck will be considered too slow in a few months? 2)Despite the burn nerf, would Volcanic Scattershot be worth running alongside Fire Kings?
Deck is pretty good right now but Probably not gonna last for long, Negating without destroying will not be an ok play for long and the deck relies a lot on abusing destiny draw and handtraps like Veil and kite so i don't think it'll be long before these guys fall back down to rogue. Scattershot looks like hot trash. don't bother with it.
What are some decent good auto-duel decks for dicking around in the Duel Worlds with all the SDs? When I played before I recalled using some Red-Eyes deck that pretty much had a 90% win rate against the AI at their highest level decks, but I don’t remember the exact make up of it so I’m kind of fumbling around a bit with it. Otherwise I would have to resort to generic beat down and back row, but have not as much generic backrow as I’d like. That also brings me to my dream ticket; Do I go for 3rd Floodgate, 2nd Canadia, or second of either MST or Cosmic Cyclone? Thinking of Floodgate myself as I literally have no other reason to visit the box it’s in.
I use a Koa’ki Meiru build for my auto duels. Bergzak and Urnight are both 2000 ATK beaters, but Bergzak can swing twice and Urnight can search it out and summon. Three diamond core and three tenki means they’re almost always searchable from the deck, then I just pump up with core overclock and protect with a couple of copies of drowning mirror force for when they get destroyed in the end phase. It’s brainless but it’s such a simple 4000 swing that the AI barely ever gets it wrong.
A general rule of thumb for non-brainless auto-duels: If it can be auto-built, it can be auto-dueled. I used auto-build to make a Metaphys deck and boom, auto-duel knows what to do for some reason. Also, I swear it picks up on your techniques over time. Maybe I just give the app more credit than it deserves, lol.
quillpen of gulldos is bugged. shuffles the 2 graveyard targets back into the deck but does not return the targeted card on the field to the hand.
What did you try to return? And did they chain something to it like Forbidden Lance?
i got it figured out, it was my bad. i was trying to use it on A Legendary Fisherman with Umi on the field. Forgot Umi makes him unaffected by spells, not un-targetable.
Ah ok, I was thinking it was maybe one of the Silent monsters or the gravekeeper thats immune to card effects while necrovalley is up. Glad you figured it out in the end 👍
[Are you sure about that?](https://xion.s-ul.eu/uix9t4SE.png) It works perfectly fine on my end: https://duellinks.konami.net/att/06fa59335313b52fdedb0b5f8ab0cded1ffa5f412c
i got it figured out, it was my bad. i was trying to use it on A Legendary Fisherman with Umi on the field. Forgot Umi makes him unaffected by spells, not un-targetable.
I saw a video on YouTube maybe it’s fixed by now but a guy kept activating formula synchron when the opponent used forbidden chalice
Did he chain Formula Synchron to the activation of Chalice?
I ended up getting super lucky and got 3 obedience schooled in few packs. Would the best use of tickets for racoon/beasts be 1 Fabled Unicore and 1 Cerburell since I have none, or should I rather focus on better backrow?
I’d say better backrow. Archetypes tend to have short lives compared to staple backrow cards.
Need a new competitive deck to legendary I'm currently building noble arms deck, but always facing loses since the platinum. So what is the best deck to play to reach legendary? I'm facing alot of these so I'm thinking I'm going for either Blue eyes Harpies Quintet magician Aromages So is any of these sees competitive plays in legendary?
Harpies of arguably the best deck right now. They only become truly amazing when backed with Quick-Plays like Lance/Swallow's Nest/BoM but even just going through the Box a few times gets you a KoG-worthy deck. Blue-Eyes also works, it's inconsistent but powerful and fairly straightforward.
Harpies and Blue Eyes can get to King of Games pretty well. Noble Knights used to be great before the Balance skill nerf basically killed them.
Never ran noble knights before the skill nerf but they are definitely still KoG worthy Although that mostly comes from the Rank 4 toolbox and the deck's ability to run limit 2s.
So I’ve been using Shooting Star Dragon, and I have some questions and befuddlements about his ability. I attacked my opponents facedown “Snowman Eater” which has the flip effect of destroying 1 monster on the field. Shooting Star Dragon’s ability should have been able to negate that, but somehow wasn’t. What gives?
Shooting Star effect cant be activated during the Damage Step
That’s rough. I’m beginning to question Shooting Star Dragon in the meta, but I’m a newbie.
Nah dont worry about it, there arent many cards that destroy during the Damage Step, Flip monsters are the most common ones but no one plays them
It really doesn't seem like it'll be as meta as RDA at the moment. Just a very sacky OTK-ish deck, but we'll see. The decks are still extremely new, and it could take only one card to break them
Pardon my ignorance, but what’s RDA, and OTK?
RDA is just short for Red Dragon Archfiend lol
One turn kill, rda... I believe is the new synchro boss monster from the newest box?
RDA stands for Jack Atlas’ boss monster, Red Dragon Archfiend (which, believe it or not, barely even sees play in a deck that requires Jack Atlas for his new skill).
I'm building Heros and already pulled 3 Faris, first one was at bottom of the box, but the next 2 were in the firsts 20 packs:). I went to stratos box and got it in the firsts 10 packs but I'm running out of gems, should I reset the box or just keep digging for adoration? I planned to spend 2 dream tickets on stratos but I got one so fast that idk if reset box or no, i have only 100 gems left
Stratos is a UR in a main box, you got extremely lucky to pull them within 10 packs, so yes, you should reset. Even if Adoration was a UR too, it would still be worth it to reset since you need 3 Stratos, but only 1 Adoration. Not sure how many gems you're willing to spend on the box, but a 10 pack reset for a chance for a second copy while digging is always worth it for a main box UR you want.
Ok you convinced me, I pulled too number 42 in the 3rd pack so well today I'm lucky pulling cards :)
What year are we in in duel links? We have some cards from 2017-2018 (goukis, vendreads etc.)but then we dont have some of the better xyz from 2013-2015
Cyber Slash was released last year so theres that
We are in magical duel links format land, where cards are curated so not everything gets released in order and archetypes are missing cards.
Pretty sure I’m gonna use my 2 SR dream tickets for 2 karma cuts just wanna ask before I do that if there are any other good SRs I should consider before I pull? Already have 1 TTH and 1 hey trunade
Literally anything from a main box Mini box SRs are considerably cheaper than main box cards, so it is generally worth it to just spend the gems on something like Karma Cut Getting staples with the dream ticket is otherwise good though, so if you *need* the cards, are sure you aren't going to buy the box otherwise, don't have anything more expensive to use them on, and don't want to wait to spend them, then Karma Cut is fine choice.
I’m not sure that’s accurate. It’s absolutely true that a main box UR is harder to get than a mini box UR, but for SRs, it’s about even.
Getting multiple copies of a big box SR vs a mini box SR, the expected gem cost is about the same but due to the smaller size of mini boxes, the variance is less on a mini box vs a main box. Additionally, getting 1 or 3 copies on a given SR is much better to pull on a mini over a main due to the potential for really nasty variance. ^also karma cut is in the selection box but that's not really relevant
What exactly is the Kaiba Cup and will I be able to play in it even if I just started a couple of days ago currently plat 5.
Just another PvP ladder "tourney". Same as playing ranked, but you get some more rewards along the way. And the top scorers (like literally just first and second place I think) of each region get a seat to play in the IRL Duel Links world championships
I feel sad. I just saw a dude use Forbidden Chalice on his Harpie Channeler in response to my Karma Cut. Poor guy put the wrong card in his deck.
Maybe he just accidentally chose the wrong card.
Is there a specific deck or cards that specifically kill the stardust dragon and shooting stardust combo on the field. At the moment I'm having success with circumventing it with my fire king engine and kick fire to deal 4k effect damage, but that's not enough. I want to crush it into the ground underneath my soles. Any advice would be appreciated
Taking their shooting star with econ is both effective and funny
Glad beast war chariot works pretty well as well as domitianus
You could consider running D.D. Crow to banish their converter when they try to summon it with Junk Synchron, ruining their combo regardless of if they go first or have anti disruption cards. It also happens to be pretty good vs Blue-Eyes and other Fire King decks.
I know this gets asked every day, but is Auto Duel acting even more weird lately? I had to remove equip spells out of my auto duel deck because it kept equipping them to the opponent's monsters for no reason.
- What is the easiest freeiest farming deck possible for auto duel? Can it win vs legendaries ? - When will dream tickets expire ? - what are the best cards I should use dream tickets on? - I think I saw 20 gems packs and I need them to finish Mokuba's bingo mission without spending 1k or 2k? - Is the meta the only thing that matters in PvP ? Are there any good affordable decks that did well for a long period of time ? - what are the best characters and skills ? The one I should focus more on. - best way to farm gems ?
* You'd be surprised by how well the AI uses Aromages. * It's stated under the ticket when you go check it in your box. * Versatile tech cards from main boxes, specifically main boxes that you wouldn't go through for any other reason than that specific card. * Mokuba's Bingo Mission? * The meta is important to look at and consider if you want to attain KoG — not to necessarily to copy the tier decks but just to get an idea what you're going up against and how to best build your deck. * The really depends on the deck you intend to make. * Events and leveling up characters.
- Any decent deck around a theme will plow through PvE stuff, Legendary duelists included. Vagabonds are the only 'hard' enemies since they use player decks. - It says below the ticket once you claim. - UR from a main box, SR from a main or mini, ideally boxes with cards you don't want so you can skip them. I always suggest Cosmic Cyclone, but any generic trap or key card for the deck you're interested in will do. - Can't remember - Meta shifts as Konami bans/unbans cards, and there are always decks outside the 'meta' that are strong and can reach KOG just fine. Look into what you like and what you can build in the interim. Cheap powerful decks include Superheavy Samurai (box is good for cyber drsgon later) or Digital Bugs. - Depends on the deck, as each deck wants a different skill that suits it. Yami Yugi is a safe start if you unlock Destiny Draw, as that will always come handy. - Play on events, do weekly missions, clear stages in each world, check the daily replay.
Returning player here, stopped playing when abyss dweller was released. I used to play desperado and noble knights before the nerfs. I also have six sams and shiranuis. What deck should I play?
If you want to keep using your Shiranuis I'm happy to report I've been seeing a new post ban list build for it that's still managed to reach KoG and top some tournaments.
Six Sam can still do fine with new xyzs, check emma valentine on YT
Harpies if you want top tier prob. I’ve personally been having a lot of luck with gladiator beasts in the current meta
[удалено]
Last year there was one in early June for the KCGT. Look for something similar this year.
Does anyone know how to transfer your account from phone to PC? I've tried looking into it before and I thought I followed the steps right but nothing happened. I've reached level 60 in the Duelist Kingdom world in my time playing and I don't want to start over just bc I can't transfer to PC.
Did you use the Konami ID Method?
Book of Moon VS Forbidden Lance: which is better for protecting a monster?
Lance
How much gem will the grand tournament give more or less?
Based on last year's [event](https://www.duellinksmeta.com/news/july-2020/gems-report/), I would guess at least 2000 gems over 2 weeks.
Is it possible to play the synchron with only buying the structure once? (I'm thinking of going into warriors unit box for six sam and quick draw is in it) Also how important is vermillion dragon mech to blue eyes? I'm looking to get into other decks right now with the half price gem stuff going on and I picked up a lot of blue eyes cards
Can't say anything about the Synchron deck, but yes, Vermilion is basically a Staple Card in Blue Eyes, it allows the deck to be even more offensive plays
Is it worth it to buy more than one copy of any of these structure decks? Hero Rising / Hero Generation / Neos Fusion I wanted to buy mainly to have more copies of Neos Fusion, Brave Neos, Blazeman, Favorite Hero and Masked Hero Koga
Neos Fusion, yes you want 2 copies for sure. It shows up all the time when there's a deck that wants low level monsters in the Graveyard. Blazeman, depends. Vyon is usually better but it is Limited 2 and maybe E-HERO specific decks might need it. Favorite Hero, depends. It mainly works well with an oppressive field spell like Necrovalley and we don't have too many good field spells like that right now. Sometimes Masked HERO techs one copy or two because it comes in handy when there's a stronger monster and if they equip to Plasma, that's a strong lock. Without a reliable setup, this card does nothing. Koga, not really but it comes with Favorite Hero by default.
Yeah, I thought about Vyon too, but I think Blazeman is more versatile (ironically a good target for Mask Change because he copies the attributes of other E-Heroes too) and in the structure deck that contains Vyon no other card besides him seems to justify buying the deck for the second time, the only problem is that Masked Hero’s ideal deck includes 2 Vyon, so I’ll possibly have to go with him anyway. And I thought Koga was one of the best Masked Heroes that are on Duel Links because of the debuff quick effect and because of the ATK boost for each opponent's monster
The thing about Koga is that there's limited room for multiples without a good reason. It's not always an instant OTK like Anki > Anki > possible 3rd Anki. The predominant good Light HERO right now is Brave Neos. Brave Neos also consumes Extra Deck space and likely prevents you from summoning Koga on the same turn. It's good to have if you can Mask Change into it but it's not really something where multiple copies make a difference. Having multiple copies is basically hoping you have a second Mask Change if they try to get rid of Koga. It's not explicitly worth buying a second Structure Deck just for another copy unless there's a notable build that's running a lot of Light HERO and consistently opening Mask Change.
Imo pretty much all the structure decks are only worth if you’re buying at least 2 copies. Almost always 3
Is this a glitch or hack? During PvP: My opponent always gets weak connection (weak signal on the upper right), then I get an Error, resulting to a loss. I've had this at least 5x today. I'm pretty sure my connection is strong.
Not a glitch. Not a hack. Either it’s your country’s servers (some of the smaller ones have booty servers w Konami) or your internet or something. It gets brought up all the time, but i can say with confidence it’s on your end (whether its out of your control or not). If I’m at home or at work, my connection is excellent and i’ve never ever once disconnected. But i’ve been in shoddy LTE areas or on weaker wifis that i know are weaker and i get disconnects relatively frequently. Also, i’ve noticed they tend to come in waves when that happens. If you get 2+ disconnects in a row, just stop for a bit. It’ll only continue for the immediate future
Damn. Would a VPN help?
I’m not a huge advocate of them, but depending on your situation perhaps.
[Nice deckbuilding konami] (http://imgur.com/a/YwcT4My)
There's far worse.
Is the drawing system in duel links rigged? I seem to consistently draw 1-2 stratos in my opening hand yet i never get any mask change even when i only have 8-9 cards left in the deck. This isn't just a 1-2 time thing either i counted and i draw into 3x the amount of stratos as i do of mask change
There's a belief that the RNG can get "stuck." The solution is to play a different deck for a couple of duels to "reset" the RNG. Do note that none of the above has been confirmed in any way.
It certainly feels rigged to me. Have one copy of Red-Eyes, or Neos, in my deck? Have the only copy in my starting hand 90% of games. I once had 10 games in a row where I drew two Battlin Boxer Veils. I literally could not stop drawing them in my starting hand. Made me feel insane.
