maliss killed MD.... then the general... who's next?
>>539114573Maliss' days are numbered.
Lot of good shit coming soonDo you guys think we can get sky striker before end of year ? I mean, surely they're not using it as an anniversary pack like last year (im betting on k9 or something for that event).
>>539114959Maintaining the Raye shilling is Konami's top priority. We won't see JUHU until 2026.
>>539114573only HIM can save the general
Mating Pressing Purrely
>>539114959alright, what're you rolling for, we've got the whole list here>Mitsurugi>Dragonmaid>D/D/D>Cyber Dragon>all the DM support (including the SS DMG, she goes in that deck too)>maybe Nouvelles
>>539114835...the number being at least 180
>>539114573What the fuck were they thinking?
>need to save for orcust>burnt all my gems trying to get accesscode altfuck you konami and your jewish schemes
>>539114573>forgot to join his no maxx c tourneyI guess I'm not playing master drool this week at all
>>539114959>>539116879>Mitsurugi (maybe, small interest, don't have/want ryzeal)>Evil Twin (maybe, same as mitsu)>dragonmaid>White Forest>Sky Striker (!!)9500 gems, 500 SR dust and 250 UR right now, might have to give up on ritsu and/or evil twin if I wanna make all these deck without fucking myself.Yes, I mostly pull for tits
>>539114409>imperm fiendsmith sequence>tract can fusion anywaythis shit is way overtuned
>he is still playing this gameKWAB!!
Now that the dust has settled, can we all agree that fire king is based?
>just need 1 more Astero>box keeps giving me Fabled or Sixsam URs insteadI'd just craft it but that'd mean I'd have no more reason to pull and part of me is hoping that maybe I get the Ryzeal stuff as well on my way to completing my Jurracs
>>539114573the game is so fucking unplayable right now. for as good as maliss is, i only see it maybe 20% of the time, so these fucking lanceas and meowls are bricking my hands constantlybut even besides maliss, i've had about 10 games today, and all of them have been complete fucking nongames. either me or the opponent scooping as soon as your crucial handtrap gets negated. clearly everybody is fucking miserable and tired
>>539122029no
>>539121687trying to get out of platinum with ashened
>>539122029pure? yeah sure
>>539122029kill yourself
What maliss can do with one card is nasty and I hate it only way forward is banning the deck
What tenpai can do with one card is nasty and I hate it only way forward is banning the deck
>>539123596>ashenedWhy do you do this to yourself?
>>539127812because i like ashened
I can feel it... It's happening soon
>>539114835Maliss is way more powerful than yummy, k9 and Dracotail. Look at how many cards they had to ban and limit.
>maltroon deck drops>waifu faggotry deck that only troons play because they want to be real woman>deck look like some anime moe slop seasonal show>gameplay loop is a soulless cyberseslop link climbing deck like mathmech except its not cool robots>shill deck with bundle and nuke the other good deck to make sure waifu faggot deck is the only good deck>shill waifu faggot deck with more support while not releasing support for the deck with cool robot monstersI miss when yugioh was actual yugioh, you know with monsters that look like real monsters and not infested with anime troons.
>>539129572and now game is dying cuz no one wants to play with anime waifu faggot deck people want real monsters that look cool.
>>539128586That retarded pyro lock ruined the whole deck.
>>539129572I don't understand why ext gets prehit when maliss got none and still has no hits
>>539130628Ryzeal made the grave mistake of being an honest deck and being a non anime girl deck. Can't be having that in nu-gi-oh. Every good deck must be some anime waifu slop deck.
>honest deckignore the ryzealtranny
>>539128737>using the erratapathetic
the word honest has lost any and all meaning forever
>>539131145>no scythe>no dweller>people aren't even running featherstorm>no twins>no mitsu>FS isn't even that popular to run with it>deck ends on a 4 material pop>Maliss ends on apo, omni negate, infinite follow up and can play shit like shifter. Nice projection sir.
im not going to respond to you. keep telling yourself (and everyone here) that ryzeal is """honest""". its hilarious watching tranny mental gymnastics
>>539131419Honest= The decks I'm playing and i want to win with
Maliss/Ryzeal BANNED! $1k Tourney Qual!
maliss and ryzeal killed the game
>>539131419Anything that has a winning strategy is dishonest. This ranges from the literal best decks to whatever deck someone here lost to in silver today.
Guys is my petdeck honest or no?
>>539133423No? That's literally one of the strongest decks the game has ever seen wtf are you talking about.
>>539133423wait I might just be stupid, how did you get monsters in both extra zones like that
HIM is here, everyone be seated
>link sloppa>pends>honestNah but this is an actual honest deck.
>>539133890No? That's literally one of the strongest decks the game has ever seen wtf are you talking about.
>targeting protection >destruction protection >floodgates>milling>burndishonestsimple as
>>539133890I don't "get" shangri-la. It just kinda sits there and doesn't do anything, and often just gets ashed/impermd.
>>539131954Will ryzeal is honest in the way that it doesn't have much negates and it's pretty susceptible to it's board being broken because unlike maliss it doesn't have hyper resilience. The dishonestly in ryzeal comes from the fact that it can run up to 20 handtraps(but this makes them prone to bricking) and has a lot of starters. which is way less dishonest than maliss.
im RISING
>>539133808That's called a v link. Having Singularity in the centre mmz, allows me to summon links in both emz's. Because his arrows point diagonally at the emz's
>>539134671I genuinely didn't know you could do that, that's insane
>maliss and ryzeal banned tournamentlol
GET WATCHIN'
wow I would actually be able to play my punk deck in that environment
>>539134758Yeah you can do some pretty silly things with links lol. Iblee locking with Code Talkers was an actual thing a few years back. It was by no means good, but it was fun when you pulled it off
>>539133940Your ra balls sir? Did you cut them off for a neo vagina?
/mdg/ RISE WITH ME
It's so bizarre that the TCG is gutting Maliss after it had been crept out by Justice Hunters archetypes while it's at its strongest in MD, and stronger than it ever was in TCG.
>>539136142Not really people don't want to play some anime waifu deck. They want REAL monsters thats why MD dying.
>>539133890>activate windows>epic games store notification>kashtira
>resolve the roach>opponent scoopsNot how I wanted to rank up, but okay.
>>539136229I get that but I enjoy their gimmick of cycling through their banish pile and the resilience it gets them. I don't really like the generic cyberse slop endboards tbf.
>>539136740You can do that with kashtira or ritual beasts.
>>539137104Kashtira is gross, thoughbeit.
yesterday was the first time I've ever run into a Tellarknight player, ever, and I completely forgot that even existed until I saw the new cards announced for it yesterdaywon't lie the deck seems kinda fun honestly
>>539138081Oh shit, nice. I've always liked the look of them, after getting destroyed by them in Tag Force, but I never got around to building a deck. I was hoping they'd get new support. Hopefully shaddoll is next.
>>539114959I have seen shining sarc being played with Orcust which is cool. they should come out together
>>539114573it has been way deader than this lmao
>>539136142>It's so bizarreNo it isn't. The TCG always annihilates the previous good deck(s) in a banlist shortly after they release the new hot thing.
>>539140213Yeah, but I mean Maliss was already on the way out, especially in a format where you can side in the silver bullets in a BO3. It seems unnecessary. Unless the hits to K9's partners in crime might make Maliss top tier again, which I doubt.
>>539141760buy blackwings
>>539141760>It seems unnecessaryit forces people who would otherwise keep just playing the now tier-3/rogue old decks to buy the extremely expensive new ones
>>539116879>>539114959>Lunalight>Dawn's Light, Dusk's Dark, and Mutiny>the pend flip archetype that isn't in the image>MST archetype that isn't in the image>Darkuriboh which isn't in the imageI am considering K9 too because turn 0 plays seem like they are becoming mandatory and can be thrown into anything, but I probably won't because Lupis is a Garnet and Taketomborg is always glued to my hand already
Main deck Chimera the Flying Mythical Beast retrain that mentions both Chimera Fusion and Shining Sarc doko
Any Regenesis players here? What's the better version for you guys so far, general goodstuff or a pure going second build?
>>539114959they're absolutely using it for the anniversary again. there's more than enough shit to fill packs until then.
SEX
>HE will quit master duel and stream silksongits over
I fucking hate memento
>>539138081
Purrely Horny Memory
>>539114959>coming "soon"ftfy
>>539114959>another new Morganite
>>539114959>Battlefield Tragedy from 2022 is missingwhat? why?
>>539114959>eng suda released january>still missing an entire archetype>suda released october 2024>two cards missing>rota released fucking july 2024>one card still missing>>539160095konami is just weird like that
>ban the current meta decks>the past meta decks just takes overWOW WHO COULD HAVE SEEN IT COMING
>>539114959JUHU comes before DUAD. JUHU is still series 12.
>>539115834So MD will literally not get any new cards for a whole year? Sure sounds like a smart theory.
>>539114959judging from this list I could see like>White Forest/Dragon Ruler/Fairy Dragon focus>throws on a few two card supports that some decks have like Cyber Dragon. Live Twin, Eldlich, Dragonmaid, etc.as a next pack if things line up right, dunno if White Forest will be big enough for them to put as an anniversary headliner or not but it feels like they could
is gem knights good?
>>539129235Who? The TCG?Maliss is perfectly fine in the OCG and it's not even making a dent. TCG is just a joke format that intentionally destroys decks to force people to ROTATE into the next meta.
>>539134424>Ryzeal doesn't have negatesLMAOOOOOOO
>>539162359Yes. Master Dispersion and the Dispersion Spell card as well as Nepyrim are basically custom cards.
>>539162303>Dragon Rulers>White Forest>Odeon>MitsurugiThose are the major archetypes still left in series 12. Then you have a bunch of 1-2 card support for stuff like Orcust, Dragonmaids, Shining Sarc, etc....That's pretty much the next pack. Then they're forced to go into series 13 with JUHU/DUAD for Nov, Dec, JanThen in Feb they do the anniversary with pic rel and DOOD or something.
>>539162956I'm on the fence about Mitsurugi, mainly because they've always had a history of being weird with the TCG exclusives, but we'll have to wait and see, everything else seems to line up right
why is dkayed so desperate to please the viewers. are his videos not doing well
Master Duel GODS, our response?
>>539163496Joke format for oversensitive trannies.
>>539163496gold sarc to 1thank you for playing yugioh master duel
>>539163496>nuking VS because of K9pointless but okay>banning splash mageI have to kneel to the paperfags on this one
>>539163496I find it funny that TCGpigs are celebrating Konami ripping them off like this, and pretending this has "fixed" the format or whatever.
>>539163496were people doing degenerate things with Summon Sorceress for it to be banned in the first place, cause I've heard anyone talk about it in the context of MD
>>539163496The Fiendsmith hits are moronic and only hurt rogue decks.
>>539163814master duel bros....
>>539164028It got an errata
Tfw too retarded to memorize the maliss lines
>>539163496>Lacrima to 1 when nobody plays more than 1>Banning splash mage instead of just banning White BinderClown fucking ban list
>>539129572Are you still posting, faggot? Listen, I hate maliss too, but you make like minded people look like even dumber every time you post. Kill yourself
>>539165140>Lacrima to 1 when nobody plays more than 1they unbanned lacrima
>>539164743Same I just freestyle it and end on the usual endboard
>>539165191oh nevermind then, I'm retarded
>>539165274Freestyling is more fun, why I loved pre-Tear piles where you could activate grass and see what you get
>>539129572All of this is true.
>>539159870And their boss monster too, which is a hot witch (part of the diabell series, technically).
>>539163496Maliss Q White Binder to 1.S:P Little Knight to 1.Pot of Prosperity to 1.Thank you for playing YU-GI-OH! Master Duel.
????
>playing in plat>maliss>maliss>maliss >maliss can the DC cup come so i can stash 10k gems away and uninstall until lunalight?
>>539163496maliss and ryzeal have less than 8% representation eachfiendsmith has less than 1%seems like another banlist meant to prevent people from playing old decks and sell the new product
>>539165181Don't forget to dilate your open axe wound looney troon and don't forget to shave your five o clock shadow.
>win coinflip>all handtrap and roach, opponent open called by>lose coinflip>stunigger set 4 pass>win coinflip>all boardbreaker, no starter>lose coinflip>no handtrapevery time
SEEEEEEX!!!
this is my favorite deck i like playing it a lot
missing yubel and tearlaments for the true chinaman experience
>>539173863This is actually how Yu-Gi-Oh! was meant to be played btw.
This is how Yugioh was meant to be played.
>X-Sabers supportdamn I was hoping for Shaddoll, oh well
>>539114959>Evil Twin>dragonmaid>White Forest>Sky Strikerall ineed
>rank up>lose coinflip, gimmick puppet, no handtrap>lose coinflip, flo>lose coinflip, stuniggerevery time
>>539114959>wanted dragon rulers>now everyone is running lancea and shitWhy do I even bother? Watch sarc get hit.
>>539175686??????????? the pack is duel terminal support. shaddoll was never in duel terminal.
>>539180667then why is construct a gem knight and winda a winda and apkallone a gishki and
is regenesis just vanity's fiend turbo
>>539181963>is X deck just [one annoying card that one annoying player sacked me with]???There's no way to figure this out on your own sadly so none of us have been able to figure it out ourselves.
so what's the endboard supposed to be with memento (smasher/mlojnir not included)cranium burst + chimera?
>>539183717Depends on what you run in your deck and how far you want to extend. A lot of people will just end on like SP+Creation+Horned Dragon(I think some are cutting this now)+Combined Creation+Bone Party+Memento Fusion. With Creation King and Angwitch in GY that gets you a ton of pops, a steal, and SP with a lot of followup and a really sticky board.I like running the traps for fun but they're bad draws that you really don't need.
Runik + the new MST archetype will be very fun to play in 2027
>>539185528they couldve made this part of manticore of smashing
Is there a place where these backgrounds get uploaded? The ones in solo mode I mean
How good would a generic Gemini Spark be in modern yugioh?
>>539187848it's just a blown up version of a card artthat's returnia
>>539187848>>539188475Is the bad guy a card?
>>539188673It's Martha.
>>539185528>Phonix isn't a typofor what purpose?also it's japanese name is so much cooler why did they change it?>Radiant Typhoon Fonix, the Great Flame
>>539130628>why ext gets prehit Because it's a retarded piece of shit faggot card>when maliss got none and still has no hitsBecause Konigger is biased
A couple of years ago I used a Blue-Eyes deck that had the "Maiden with the Eyes of Blue" card.I remember I would activate her effect using a equip spell that made it so her attack was the opponent's+100 or something so she wouldn't be destroyed by battle.But I can't for the life of me remember which card was it. Anyone knows?
>>539190819Moon Mirror Shield
>>539190881Thank you m8
>>539130628maliss actually takes skill
>>539190819>Maiden with the Eyes of Bluegood time
Friendly reminder that Blue-Eyes is just as bad as Ryzeal and Maliss
>>539167096Bless the Diabell series for reminding me to appreciate hot witches
>re-watching a few replays from 2023 championship>that whole duel introI think it's why I always get sucked back into playing the game. The presentation in most of the YGO games has always been fucking top-notch.
>try to get gem-knights and ignisters from new pack>5 ignister links, 4 invoked fusions, 3 regenesis spells, 3 heraldryt-thanks...
>>539198206why
>>539200384I am rolling for gem knight, wish me luck.
>>539204758hope you have more luck than me
>>539204758howd it go anon?
>>539206196Thanks you kind anon, I miss everything I want.
>>539206302I got the dispersion guy, whiich is bad since he is one of.
Why did HE stop leaking the new packs?I hate waiting 3 whole months without knowing whats next
>>539207873Leaker got caught.
>>539207873>leaker gets ONE decktype in the pack wrong>leaks immediately cease forever afterTake a guess.
>Decided to play more after finishing daily missions because it's a rank up game>Lost all 4 coin flips>3 loses in a row where the only win was because Mikanko player letting me go firstI really should've stopped playing after the first game.
>>539208691but losing means basically nothing at every rank
>>539208071He was so ashamed he made a mistake and decided to stop leaking for good...
ryzeal and malice are in the game so there's nothing worth leaking anymore anywaythe game is complete and ready for EoS
why is solemn judgment at 1 in the tcg
>>539208071>>539210092No one remembers the Hyper Galaxy leak from Duel Links?Photonsisters? Our investment?
>>539212171Because it's mainly a sacky going first side deck card that can be thrown in any deck in any format.
Redpill me on Gem-Knights. Are they viable and fun?
>page 8Dead game, dead general. As it should be
>>539214573works well with Tasuku, it doesn't say much.
>>539217489two more weeks
>>539217518Is he playing a blind second version? I thought they had a decent turn one now because Baronne and Elf are still legal? Might have been cope idk
>>539217961Their turn one is FTKing through the halved damage.
>>539217961The deck is really good at OTK and Maliss can't do much on your turn if you remove Apo and the backrow, so if they don't draw Maxx C and you have Red Reboot + a starter in hand it's basically gg.
>>539217489Yeah, malliss and ryzeal killed MD. They really should emergency ban them, I'm not even playing anymore
Hopechads... DoomGODS are making fun of us again...
>>539214573They are tenpai 2.0, blind second board breakers. They can usually play through 3 disruptions easily
>>539219115We'll achieve that 250k concurrent players again someday trust the plan
>>539218874>just open exactly what you need and it's basically ggDamn bro you solved the format!
>>539217961He already did a stream playing the going first build. They have a good turn 1 because they have a good engine, they don't need shit like Elf. That was already the standard way to play the deck in the OCG.
someone should buy Julian Kehon's spreadsheet and post it here :)
>>539164743it's just a another cyberse pile, you play them enough you start thinking in amount of available link material/extenders. The only thing the lines teach you is how to chain block effectively, which depends on what handtraps you're expecting.
>>539220014need to ban all the anime waifu cards to get rid of the troon menace first.
I'm enjoying a lot the lore bits in the solo mode. Do they add more eventually or it's been the same from release?
>>539227506we get one every 1-2 months or sothe lore stuff is cute but everyone just does it for the 200 gems
>requiem > bitch > engraver > sequence>lacrima rev bitch>sequence+lacrima into lyna>equip sequence>sequence + lyna into chorozo>chorozo+lyna into synchro zoroa>snychro zoroa equip artemis>artemis search spenta>spenta search whatever>spenta equip ninaruru to synchro zoroanow fiendsmith combo is also an anti link+xyz floodgate
>>539227506they add more every now and thenbut you don't need solo mode to check out card lore
>>539228276>chorozo+lyna into synchro zoroai meant chorozo+bitch
>>539228363>but you don't need solo mode to check out card loreoh yeah that's a given. But I like doing it while playing with the deck and having a feel on the cards you know
>>539228276That's 8/15 if your extra deck dedicated to summoning one guy that's only effective vs certain decks.
>>539228276is it posible to make a zoroa with all 4 card types equiped?
>>539230098No, that's against the rules.
only diabellstar alt art could save the game
>>539230678Yes
My kid was watching the anime and it was on the maze brothers episode. Now I feel like doing a deck based on this gigachad card. How do I go about it?
>my kidstopped reading. go to /dng/ if you get off too larping
>>539233356the deck has some support that is sort of recent-ishthe deck isn't complete garbage but it's not good either
TOP 5 DECKS TO REACH MASTER 1 WITH IN SEPTEMBER! CAN ANYTHING BEAT MALISS?
>>539233638Well, my step kid. But it is irrelevant
>>539233356you play the fusion retrain of it and auto lose if your opponent outs it
>>539114409danke
New to the game, redpill me on crafting. It seems like you get too little "crafting points" compared to how "expensive" crafting the cards is
>>539235517it's hardest at the start since you need to get both a deck and staplessr dust becomes basically freeduel pass is a pretty free source of points if you didn't buy itother than that make sure you're buying packs with the best odds of pulling what you want and dust the junk (ie not master packs)
>New to the gamefuck off
>>539235517After you play for a bit, essentially URs are all that matters. N/R are completely free, and SRs are easy enough to come by that they're not that far behind. URs are the real focus of everything.Crafting should be done to finish off decks. The more cards you need from a pack, the better it is to use gems on that pack, because that means it has a higher chance of giving you URs you need. But once you're down to only needing a couple different URs in that selection pack you should probably craft because the odds of getting one of them is now too low. Using gems more efficiently means you need to craft fewer cards and will have more crafting points for what you do need. Don't be the guy who says "oh there's a 3x UR I need in this selection pack so I should spend gems". If you can, you should craft them because it's very unlikely you'll pull that one singular card and the gems should be saved for packs that have higher odds.You should also not be a hoarder and should be willing to dismantle URs you are sure you'll never need.As a new player it's rougher because a lot of staple cards are craft-only, but once you have your 2x Maxx C, 3x Ash, 2x Called by, etc then it becomes a lot easier because you have those for every deck you make.
>>539235517after a few months of doing dailies, every dust type except UR will be essentially free.until then you may want to research a cheap playable deck, or just build whatever you feel like if you can stand the frustration of having to scoop whenever your opponent plays meta.
>9600 gems>nothing to roll forWhat are you doing Konami ?! Give me Sky Striker support+alt art and i'm even opening my wallet !
>>539208071dkayed's leaks occasionally got small stuff wrong all the time
>>539234278>stepkiddoes you bvll know you want to spend resources on a shitty deck?
>>539234278You at least had a kid with her too right?
I'm hardstuck plat 1 with maliss. Any tips?
>New to the gamewelcome, friend. enjoy your stay.
>>539238718Either look up how others build the deck, how they play the deck, get more practice with the game as a whole, or if none of these apply then stop baiting.
>>539237141can't do that lil bro. next month is mitusurgi. we need to buff ryzeal
>>539237672No, 1 kid is enough. I got a vasectomy
>>539239478>I got a vasectomyI never understood why someone would do this. Why would literally cut off your lineage and part of the reason you're here

>>539244070Maliss trannies will STILL cope and say it's actually not Maliss's fault and actually Ryzeal is the deck killing the game somehow.Subhumans will also still defend apo being in the game.
>>539244070>shilling the TCGaaaaaaaaand discarded.
>>539245482>roach banned>apo bannedthese alone make up for all of TCGs flaws.
>>539245772>Vanquish Soul>Dice Smasher
>>539245480>>539245772Reminder that apo is banned in both the TCG and OCG and it's literally only retarded fucking Master Duel where this nigger card is still allowed.
>>539245892I still don't get why people bitch about Dice Smasher. Am I missing something?
>>539244070>They didn't just like negate bounce or disrupt everything you did.You mean like Yummy? Or like K9 Vanquish Soul on turn 0?

>>539246416still not applied
>he's still seething about apotwo more weeks until that banlist
>>539246382>>539246416Nvm, there's another casino Xyz card I was confusing this card with, but I can't remember the name of it. Yeah this card is fucked actually, lmao.
>>539246602Why wouldn't you seethe about apo? It's ruining the game. There's no justification for it being in the game. There's literally no other format besides master duel where it's legal.
Game has been dead for longer than Maliss.Also most people I see playing Maliss are utter retards who only happen to win because they opened certain specific hands.I can constantly win against them if they open only with their 1 card combo even if they have Ash, Called By, Crossout etc.But the deck has multiple combinations of 3 card combos that are practically all the gas in the world, unstoppable.The game has been shit ever since Snake-Eyes overstayed it's welcome.
>>539244070>no edison or goatif they introduced these modes regular ranked would collapse overnight. It would completely expose how shit and hated modern yugioh is, which would reflect badly on konami. Like all video game companies, nothing they do is wrong, and you don't get to tell them that they're wrong.
>>539248075>edisonYes I would love to not play maliss only to end up in vayu turbo mirrors all day>goatYes I would love to not play maliss just to get sacked by broken cards that have been banned for over 20 decades now.
Link monsters have been an unmitigated disaster for this game and if they were all (100%) banned tomorrow this game would be 1000% better. Reminder there are more banned Link monsters than any other type of card.

>>539248721how come pends got all the hate instead of that cancer mechanic
>>539251480Something something pepe
>rolled into the new Witchcrafter spell today with my free roll>never even really paid much attention to the deck until now>actually seems kinda cool with the fusion and the new spell>have a lot of the usual ED things the deck would use already aside from the actual Witchcrafters themselvesalright how much am I gonna regret going for this
>>539251480Nobody understands how pends work and nobody wants to because it's an atrocious mechanic whose decks either break the game or are completely irrelevant. Links are actually easy and fun to play, so the people who play them give them a pass.
>>539251480unironically because Konami hates pends more than any of the players will, have been beating them down ever since PePe was meta for like, a weekno one really knows why but they HATE this mechanic that they themselves made
pepe? you mean rank 4 dishonesty feat. shockmaster?

The real reason why link decks are way more played is because getting hard carried by a Link-1 or a busted starter is much easier/ noob friendly than actually learning your deck or ridiculously long combo lines that only work turn 1.
i have recently-ish picked this game up. Apologies for the following.I have 2 copies of the HERO pre-built and spent most of my gems with impunity (e.g. falling for the Sky striker alt-art meme) a few months ago. As it stands I've now completed the SP deck challenges with loaners, so I'm looking to dip my toes in Ranked.I have a few staples and there are a few archetypes I'm interested in flavour-wise, namely Mathmech, Nemleria, Aesir, Runick, HERO, and Numeron.Are any of these worth looking (further) into?re. crafting staples, do I acquire the majority of UR dust through dusting URs which I am not interested in building around?When building decks, what are important considerations? I assume staples are cards which are ubiquitous in almost any deck one builds, but I am much less certain re. a deck's engine. Finally, are there any decks/archetypes which are designed to be able to answer most board states, but requiring an approach tailored to the one faced?Thanks for reading.
>>539254546She looks middle school aged.
is there a guide for grinding daily gems?
>>539251714About how much I regret going into Nekroz. Which is not at all because you're probably sitting on a pile of gems anyway. Its a deck you pull out for a low power event and dip
>>539254717basically wait 3 days until you have all the missions, then complete all of them, but only claim those which are the easiest for your current deck to finish, then everytime the dailies resets you'll only have to do those same missions everytime, you just have to make sure to claim all the remaining missions once the season is about to end and then repeat the same process aftewards. watch duel live and get the daily login gems too, they add up.
>>539254915got a few of those already, fuck it, what's one more for the pile thenbetter going for that then waiting for Amazons to finally update their damn secret pack
>>539254620>re. crafting staples, do I acquire the majority of UR dust through dusting URs which I am not interested in building around?That and the gold duel pass. If you don't have it, get it, it resets in 9 days and it gives you 100 (130? I can't remember) UR points. If you haven't done ranked at all (or events), then you'll not be very far along, but it's worth trying to grind out.
>>539255790most gracious. I think I am not so committed as to be able to grind the pass out within a week, however. I will purchase it starting next rotation.
>>539254620>RankedOut of all the decks you listed, only Mathmech, HERO, and specifically Runick-stun are good for ranked. And by good, I mean you have to know how to play those decks well, and win your coinflips, and it won't be a fun time. You can also play all those other decks you mentioned in ranked, just don't expect much from them.The best way to get URs and UR dust is to pull from a selection pack/secret pack that has the cards you need for your deck, so you save points in crafting hopefully by pulling the cards you need for the deck, and then dust the shit you don't need and don't want that you end up getting from secrets and selections.>answer most board statesThe best going second decks right now are Gem Knights and Tenpaibecause most decks aren't made to beat full end boards, you handtrap and hope you end their turn immediately or end on some shit-half board
>>539256878I see. Given the state of the thread, I assume the only ways to do well is to play Maliss or Ryzeal, the former of which seems exceptionally cloying. I hear Youtubers say the next sets have brought better archetypes (K9, Cupsie and Dragontail I think) to paper which I assume will follow here soon enough.>Gem knights and TenpaiThank you for your advice. I will look into them.
>>539251480>pends release with a new master rule>can continue playing with my deck as is>links release with a new master rule>my deck is dead in the fucking water unless i buy the new shit cardsFor some reason people attribute link's sins to pendulums.
>>539256878playing tenpai right now feels like cope like playing tearlaments, does sky striker tenpai make it a lot better?
>>539258070Before Maliss and Ryzeal came to Master Duel, youtubers were saying they were going to be better metas than what we had, and it's barely different, it just new decks that do almost the same shit as the old ones that were replaced.So new archetypes coming doesn't really mean fuck all, people will not like these new metas either, especially Yummy.>>539258975I think Tenpai is doing better with handtraps/Impulse right now compared to sky strikers, but you can definitely do both
>>539250364Nice work, anon.
>>539248075lol. those formats happen in tryouts and no one cares. actually some people say they hate how slow it is and how yugioh always had degenerate shit. nothing would happen
>Activate Danger Nessie>opponent Ashes it>Activate Danger Nessie>opponent Impulses it>Activate Danger NessieHOW DO THESE PEOPLE EVEN BREATHE
Anyone else finds Nessie sexy with those eyes?
>>539268843no not really
>>539134281that's the pointit just sits there locking more and more zones and calling kashtiras into the field unless you deal with it
>>539230098you're better off summoning fusion zoroa and then equip this dude to it
>>539248721>Reminder there are more banned Link monsters than any other type of card.Not even close to true. In both paper formats and MD, #1 is main deck monsters and #2 is spells. In the OCG and MD #3 is xyz and links are only #4. in the TCG links are #3, and only because they still have worthless shit like prank kids and knightmare goblin banned.
>>539254198Why do people keep saying Maliss is a problem?
>>539244070>Fartfa
>>539245985Apo will never be banned in MD so seethe and cope.
>>539247750>The game has been shit ever since Snake-Eyes overstayed it's welcome.I remember telling everyone that every meta after Tear 0 was total shit, and with Tears nuked it was only going to get worse. And then every idiot gaslighting themselves into thinking that Snake-Eyes was actually better and skillful.It's really dumb of Konami too, they don't need to go nuclear on decks in MD to push new product. On the contrary formats would benefit greatly from having a greater diversity of decks by allowing meta decks to stay meta for longer by not absolutely butchering them like paper does. Now, all MD is just a delayed version of the TCG/OCG format. It's retarded.Like, right around Tear 0 Branded should have been unhit. Branded Fusion should have been unlimited ages ago in fact. Merrli and Havnis should have come off. And right now, Snake-Eyes Ash and Oak should be unlimited too. Just to name a few. But no, instead they narrow the first into just Maliss and Ryzeal like paper. It's retarded.
>>539274361The irony is that generally, Master Duel is already much more lenient towards other decks than the OCG format. Spright Blue, Spright Starter, and 4 Bystial names are still limited in the OCG, and Sprights haven't been relevant in the OCG's format since before Tears
I swear to fucking God these Maliss bastards always have Called By in their opening hands.
SLUT!!!
>11k average playersHopesisters, hopecucks, hopebwos...why has konami given up on us?

>>539280097RUNNINGOUTOF PLAYERS
>>539280097They need a nuclear ban list if they're ever going to stop this free fall in players. I thought I fucking hated Fiendsmith but I'd take a year of that shit like I did SE if it meant I never had to put garbage like Lancea into my decks again just so I'm not forced to look at another Malpiss player's ridiculous board with infinite recursion knowing I have to OTK them that turn or just know they're somehow rebuild everything with a single top deck again the next turn. Anything barring finally killing Maxx C completely and GUTTING Maliss isn't going to be enough to stop this, mark my fucking words.
Hey, duel links has a friend invitation campaign. Does master duel have something similar? If so, I'm interested in getting into it.
>>539282054It does. you get a free branded deck last I checked and when you make it out of rookie, you get some free give mes. Here you go: 02a976c8
I see maliss, I report and go next
>Regenesis Archfiend has boobsI will now play your deck
>>539282334ThanksI'll install the app right away
>>539282497the deck sucks, don't play it
> Make maliss stronger than it needs to be> Continue to release dogshit cards other than RyzealIts no wonder why the player count keeps dropping
>>539282054the game is in a tier 0 format, and the best deck just left the shopdon't bother
>>539282489Lord is also very clearly girl coded
>>539282497>>539282334Which one do I pick?
Why isn't anti spell fragrance banned yet
>>539282762It doesn't really matter which one you pick up, you'll never use it and you'll eventually get the other 2
>>539282762It really doesn't matter. One has MST which might help really early on.
>>539282792nobody plays it, and having more than one in the deck is a detriment
>>539282983I just played against it that's why I'm complaining
>>539282762they are all fucking trash
>Maxx C>Ghost Ogre>3 pops>A negate>2 summon negates>ParadiseAnd this is the "Honest, balanced" deck?????
>>539282792so chingchongs can freely edit it into their starting hand
>opponent fuwaloses>tactics>>snash>>diabellslut>>engraver>>tractWhat's the shuffle here?
>>539282462report for what
>>539283948should've drawn 2
>>539281872In order to ban that many cards they would have to give away enough gems to replace that many decks.
>>539282614>> Continue to release dogshit cards other than RyzealRyzeal is dogshit.
>>539280097If there is a banlist it will be released by the end of the month or they will do another bullshit one because of the duelist cup btw
Is there a limit of gems I can have in the Gift Box?
>>539285158I don't think so but they expire after 30 days
Just wait for Ryzeal to release and SAVE the meta. It's an actually fair and interactive deck that has good back and forths.
>>539284119No, they wouldn't since every problem card that's been introduced to the game for the past two years has been an UR.
>pend summon unicorn
>>539286342You joke but this is kind of true for the version of the deck right now. I was able to out Detonator+Starliege Photon+Plugin+Plasma Hole+Cross going second with just TT Thrust and Invoked Dogmatika engine cards. The guy made a minor misplay but then so did I at one point so it evens out.
accesscode crypter sure needed to be a thing
Guys im fucking stupidcan you explain skill drain to medoesn't it also turn off your effects too how is this played
>>539288538Read it again
>>539288538Yes it does, assuming the monster activates the effect on the field and is on the field when it resolves. It's played in decks that don't care about effects on field, or at least don't care much since if it turns off 95% of your opponent's deck but only 10% of yours then who cares.So it's primarily ran in decks that are 90% traps. There are also decks like Labrynth where you can activate a monster on field, then chain a trap to remove your own monster on field so it won't have its skill drained anymore. Or like Regenesis where the monsters can tribute themselves as cost which means they aren't on field when that effect resolves. Or decks like Eldlich where their monster only care about its effects in the GY and hand.
>>539288803what does me being able to activate my effect but it doesn't resolve dounless the effect has something like send a card to do y but y doesn't happen because skill drain
>>539289005It's just ancient psct. You can still activate the effect of a monster whose effect is negated. It'll just be negated. It's on skill drain to imply/remind you that you can get things off of the field through costs, and then those cards can activate in the graveyard.
>>539287032He probably threw by not knowing the matchup. You realistically can't set anything on your field against the Ryzeal-Starliege end board without removing the Detonator from your opponent's field or putting him face down.For most decks only Droplet, Book and Evenly can do anything against a good Ryzeal player but in a format dominated by Maliss and with Evenly in every decks it's not the best choice to play these cards at 3.
No one's playing SP anymore so I can play Scareclaw again
>>539289000Do they not use Sage in Regenesis if using drain?
>>539288067white binder is literally a custom card that does everything for the deck. Makes snASH look balanced
>>539290148Skill Drain is an unsearchable 1-of. You're not going to drop your omni negate because of it. Just search something else instead of Sage if you happen to draw Skill Drain, or if you draw both then maybe they'll use a spell you can shotgun Sage on. Or have Sage as backup if they out your Skill Drain. Regardless, if you get any sort of setup and stick Skill Drain to the field you are probably going to win the game so it doesn't matter.
Almost fucking threw the game completely by forgetting I summoned Master Diamond through Quartz. Luckily, I still had enough for Lethal even with that blunder and now I'm D1 and done with ranked for the month. The meta is fucking awful and Maliss needs to die a quick and brutal death.
Looks like they're adding a new currency you gain for playing the game that you can trade in for accessories and gems.
>>539290726now to take bets on how they ruin itmy guess is you have to redeem them using another shitty mobile app instead of in game
>>539290726>https://yugioh-duelist-point.konami.net/item/public/list>it's real and japan onlyreddit tears will be delicious
>>539290726I'm only seeing this on the Japanese MD twitter account and no notification in game, and the site they link on the tweet errors out because I'm in the wrong region(USA) so watch this be for Japanese players only. Also the top liked comment on the tweet announcing this was a Japanese guy essentially saying "Who cares? Fix the banlist" and someone else saying "Is the player count dropping that much?"
>>539291212The OCG players want the roach gone too, but do the Jap MD players even wanted it anymore either?
>>539290726>>539291142looks like the main purpose of the site is to basically sell gems directly via the konami store instead of going through a third party like steam and the app stores, presumably to bypass their cutnot sure if the gem prices are better i dont paypigthe rewards are pretty terrible honestly, bss wallpaper (forgot cards name in english), one time only 100 gems, 10 gems per week (lol), 20 sr crafting dust per month (lmao), legacy pack ticket (oh no no no)
>>539291142oh noes
>>539291726>>539291738Oh wow, it's genuinely just fucking worthless. Even if this is Jap only I don't care about it now.
>>539291726actually im retarded it says in the image how many gems you get there vs normally, and the amounts are middlingthe differences are the numbers on the right>+248>+118>+71
>>539291726AAAAAHHHHH WTF NOOOO THE OCG PLAYERS ARE GOING TO GET MORE LEGACY PACK CARDS AND WE'LL NEVER BE ABLE TO COMPETE WITH THEIR DECKS NOWFUUUUCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKK
>>539291958>2 days worth of dailieslmaonever giving them a single cent
>>53929173820 SR is not even enough to craft one card
I'm sure all 50 players still on ladder are going to be furious about this Japan only favoritism
I actually want the That's 10! wallpaper
>>539292427wrong card
Why don't they give us something to spend the utterly worthless stockpiles of N/R points on? Or let us dust Legacy pack cards so I don't have fucking 4 copies of Kragen. >>539292549Is it?
>>539292785They're never giving us Legacy pack dismantling. Even for 1 UR point it's not happening. The best you could ask for is to be able to trade in like 10 legacy URs for 1 other legacy UR.
>>539292923I just want to be able to filter them out of the deck constructor so when I go through my URs it's not clogged up with unplayable junk
>>539292923I will genuinely take anything. I fucking hate looking at my collection and seeing nine Blue Eyes White Dragons.
Purrely Lovemaking Memory
>>539289005being able to 'pay' costs that might be beneficial, as you mentionedthe negation only happens on the field as well so if you activate a card then chain link 2 remove it from the field somehow the effect will resolve properly
>chink name>get maxx c and fuwalos>that sucks i pass on aria then and>they literally cant out with ryzael plus they keep attacking it>i win on turn 3man people sure suck dick at the game
>>539296994people underrate being a hard to out retard on the boardthere's a reason crooked cook exodia exists
>>539289475There were some minor misplays owing to the matchup (SS Ecclesia->Effect to search->Detonader effect target Ecclesia->Fleur effect in hand->Detonader effect target Ecclesia again) but that didn't really have any bearing on the outcome of the game.The major play was that he did his combo, and being uninterrupted, decided to use his 7th Tachyon to search Artifact Lancea, assuming I was on Malice. He used Lancea in the draw phase, but this let me activate TT Thrust for Tactics, and after activating Magical Meltdown (Which he popped, correctly assuming it would lead to a monster effect negate) I used Tactics to take, prompting detonader to target itself, taking the Ryzeal Duo Drive on field. Going to battle, I threatened a Zeus play since it had 2 materials, whereupon my opponent used Plasma Hole to destroy it. This could be considered a misplay since most IDS lists don't play Zeus, but some Regenesis/Invoked lists opt for level 7 XYZs and thus Zeus plays. Regardless, Dogmatika decks have a decent amount of ED space. He had no idea what Invoked variant I was on. The board was effectively cracked and I got lucky when he drew dead. He opted to rank up the spent Detonader into Utopic Ray Lancer, then made Zeus himself. But the second Magical Meltdown forced it out, allowing me to use Maximus to get the necessary cards to summon Alba Zoa and delete his extra deck. With two cards in hand my opponent surrendered. It was a good game.
>>539297437you straight out just lose to crooked cook if you don't have an out for him in your deck, which is already bs enough in it of itself.
>>539298753I still keep Underworld Goddess in a lot more EDs than I should just in case. It hasn't saved my ass in a year, but you never know. And hey, Moon's big sister is also full Fiendsmith combo.

>>539315224>he thinks they'll kill a deck that is literally (not hyperbole) killing the gameThey will if they have any sense whatsoever (debatable at this point). MD's current trending player numbers are a travesty and it's objectively because of Maliss and only a shit-eating malpiss tranny will argue otherwise.
>>539315437>he's a steamcharts doomposterjust play TCG at this point if you hate mailss so much.
Ban Link Spider especially
>>539315484>if I just ignore the numbers then they're not realWhatever, malpiss faggot. I hope the game does die. Konami fumbled this shit so hard I'm surprised it still has as many players as it does.
>>539315661Why would a person want any game to die? Like genuinely?
>>539315484>>a
>>539315737nta but if the game does die it makes people feel schadenfreude and validates their beliefoften it's the most dedicated fans that will ask for a game's death when they feel like they aren't heard by the people making it
>>539315737...is the question I would ask Konami, if they ignore the obvious signs of decline. I don't really want the game to die, but if it did, Konami would deserve it.
>>539315847>>539315901A game with 90 million downloads isn't gonna EoS. If fucking Duel Links can survive through all it's bullshit, then so can MD.
>>539300916There was a small time between the Oak ban and before the new pack where the game was actually fun again.
>>53931602590 million downloads does not matter if everyone who downloaded it deletes it from their phonenot saying the game is gonna dead but never assume that a game is too big to fail
>>539316025>90 million downloadsdownloads mean fuckall. If anything, that's a staggering indictment of how many people have the game and just aren't playing it.>inb4 DOOOOOOOOOOOMERcope all you want, the numbers don't lie.
>>539316358>using steam numbers for a multiplatform crossplay titlewhy do you (people) keep using this as an argument?
Why is MD even its own format? Why not just pick either TCG or OCG and go with that? Why this weird hybrid of the two that makes no sense and makes nobody happy?
>>539313891we don't and I have lost all hope. they won't release a banlist this month either because of the duelist cup so I'm not playing for two more months>do you guys make private games with each other without playing meta stuffno it doesn't happen
>>539316358what the fuck happened in February?
>>539316561>>539280985
>>539316529We had a banlist this month, it's the one that made people bother pulling for the new Gem-Knight support. If anything the DC being all Maliss/Ryzeal will make them hit the decks mega-hard in October.
>>539316718>banlist>no bansnuh uh
>>539316467>multiplatform>Steam, mobile, and the 12 people playing on Switch/other consolesIs this the new cope? Are we really praying for mobile to save this dying game?I haven't heard a single positive thing about the mobile app, btw
>>539314491>shit designed link-4Crap indeed. The card can't even work against Maliss itself and becomes a sitting duck when they go on Crypter (can't be negated) or/and AT (can't be responded).Apo is summoned in Maliss mostly to counter the Ash on White Binder turn 1 or to negate Maliss cards when they try to get SS and Bystials in the mirror match. Nib is not that great against Maliss when you go second compared to your usual Link slop, especially if you let them go on their link-3s because they can either finish their turn on your turn, or use cards to remove their Maliss names on the field before the rock resolves, then use a Bystial, or go on meme spider + ignister card, summon back a maliss name, and extend on your token since John Konami forgot to put "effect monster" on Maliss link cards. Imperm and ofc Lancea are the best cards against the deck and Ash too if they don't have Called by. Brickcharmies and Chaos Hunter are ass.
>>539316984>i don't have the numbers for other platforms but I know it's still dying and bad!you gonna post japanese blogs with players complaining next, doomposter?
>>539291726lmaaaooooo
>>539315437>only a shit-eating malpiss tranny will argue otherwiseCase in point.
Why do people play Centur-Ion but not RDA Centur-Ion? Is RDA really that bad right now?
>>539317306anon, the archetype has 0 (zero) negates against hand-traps, without apo you simply wait for the white binder banish and have two generic handtraps to fuck them over.
>>539314491>Nibiru mogs maliss Link the token in the link spider, Special backup. Response?
>>539318062https://roadoftheking.com/ocg-2025-07-metagame-report-1-2/OCG Maliss can still avoid Nib with a banned apollousa via Dormouse, Underground and/or Gold Sarc.

>>539318431>1 Grass MalissWhat the fuck.
>>539315224They "killed" Tenpai though. Reminder that shit released with the field spell being the only thing not at 3.
>>539292923they don't even need to give us legacy pack dismantlingthey could just remove a card from the legacy pack pool once you get 3 of it. or they could let you choose a chase card from that pool that has a higher chance of appearing and only let you change that chosen card once or twice a month. or they could have a monthly or bi-monthly choose-your-own-cards pack where you pick a certain amount of SR/UR legacy pack cards, and only those high rarity cards will be in that packthis game is a gacha. or if they must have dismantling, let it only be SR/UR cards and have it give "LP CP" legacy pack card points that can only craft legacy pack cardsevery gacha I've played has a massive trash/outdated character pool and a way to get specific characters from that pool more easily(usually one of the methods listed above), because the trash pool gets bloated very quicklylegacy packs are MD's trash pool, yet there isn't a single way to get specific cards besides crafting which is almost never worth it
>>539320707Take every single fucking normal out of the Legacy pool, and not a single normal should be SR or higher. There's like 5 decks in the game total that use normal monsters, and if you want them that badly, you can craft them. The Legacy Packs are a joke already, the fact that you can get useless normal monsters from them make them even more worthless.
>>539310109>When Maliss get's nuked, and hopefully soon,>He doesn't knowYour future circa 8 months from now. Maliss only gets a slap on the wrist and then gets powercrept to shit.
>>539320267that deck isn't killed until sangen is fucking banned.>which oneall of them.
>>539322604>Master Duel diesso be it. how appropriate that it'll be a tranny deck that kills it.
>>539316358>SteamI play on my phone.
>>539322770>tranny deckBut Yubel stopped being meta ages ago.
>>539322648I know, that wasn't my point, they did "kill" it though. Chundra and Kaimen were at 3, and now they're at 1, that's 4 URs worth.Hell, you can even say the same about snake-eyes: poplar, OSS and Wanted are all limitedI was so glad I kept 3 copies of OSS when they limited itAs for Maliss. Doormouse is limited in both TCG and OCG, I'm expecting the same in MD at the very least.
>>539323869DORmouse will get limited or Semi eventually. First, they're more likely to put Allure to 1, and Sarc to 1. Also, the Field Spell.My final prediction is it'll go:Allure, Sarc to 1Underground to 1Dormouse to 2Apollousa untouched And our resident schizo will continue to have a mental breakdown every thread, but will never stop playing.Then K9 will drop and that will be his NEW designated "tranny deck" he'll bitch about every thread.
Still waiting for for a single person to explain why apollousa shouldn't be banned or why they're so willing to fall on their sword for this retarded card.
>>539324465you see if you let it negate your shit a few times you can run it over with skull servant so it's balanced
>>539324465Explain why it should be.>But muh toilet paperAlso banned Kitkallos and Verte both of which are legal and should stay legal in MD.
>>539324465They don't want to upset Appolusa fans
>>539324792>But muh toilet paperYes. It has been definitively banned in Yugioh, both in TCG and OCG. Why should a card that both formats have deemed necessary to ban be available in MD? Kitkat and Verte can also go, for that matter.But besides that, it's a retardedly broken card that's way too generic and way too easy to make that just prevents your opponent from playing.
>>539325174>t's a retardedly broken card that's way too generic and way too easy to make that just prevents your opponent from playingThat's Baronne
>>539325174>kitkat>vertetear isn't even strong anymore, and verte is literally only used to make dragoon nowadays.anybody defending apo should dilate and kill themselves, though.
Ok, but what other cards are banned in both TCG and OCG but not in MD? I can only think of Spright Elf.
>>539325848>yugioh player doesn't readKitkallos and Verte were already mentioned
>>539326085>Kitkallos and Verte were already mentionedAnd so was Apo.My question was, what other cards? Are those all? Kit, Verte, Elf and Apo?
>>539324465Unlike Detonator it's written "once per chain" and she has to be on the field to resolve. The card's still bullshit.
>>539325174Thank you for proving you're an idiot.
>>539326648>no argument>lol ur dum xDI expect nothing less from a malpiss tranny
>>539326315I don't feel like looking through the banlists, but MD ks consistently of a higher power level than both paper formats, which is why these comparisons are moronic.If you're that bothered by it, go play MDPro3, and play your toilet paper format.
>>539326770Maliss has nothing to do with it. I use Apo in my Tearlaments off of Fiendsmith consistently. Mald harder, troon. It's also funny how a 2 negate Apo is what you're raging about lmao.
sometimes just putting Unicorn in the field makes opps surrender

>every card that's banned in both formats is also banned in master duel>except 5forwhatPURPOSE
>>539330561we are beta testers
>>539330561and all 5 aren't used in any relevant decks
yummy will probably use spright elf doebeit
>>539328486Ur a fag
>>539330561More cards should come off desu. There's several that can and it literally wouldn't matter, like Painful Choices, Mirage of Nightmare, etc....
>Painful Choiceweak bait
>>539333661You're supposed to hide the incredibly broken card alongside the actually harmless ones like Fiber Jar otherwise it's too obvious.
>>539333661>draw 5 is bad
>>539333792>>539333792>>539334026You can't search painful choice/mirage.Put them to 1 and literally no one will run them. It's not 2004 anymore.
>>539334176Hell, Mirage can go to 3. It's complete shit in the modern meta.>Draw till you have 4>But only during opp standby>So you have to go first>But what deck today doesn't plus so hard that it ends with 4 cards in hand anyway?>Also, if you don't get rid of it, it fucks you, which is more likely to happen these days as MST isn't stapleIt can totally come back to 3 and no one would run it.
>>539334026Mirage is pretty bad. It's a sacky going first card that only actually does anything if you draw hand traps with it.Painful Choice is obviously busted though since it's 4 Foolish Burials in one card that goes neutral in pure hand advantage and potentially triggers discard effects. the jury is out on that one, the card says it discards but also it never adds to hand so some people say that it doesn't actually discard
>>539334176>>539334554Also also, grass is better than Painful Choice, and that's legal. There might be a couple niche instances where you'd prefer to run Painful Choice, but it's a similar thing to Grass, just put it to 1. Also it can get Ashed, like Grass. And it's weak to Droll too.Totally fine at 1.
>>539334781Painful Choice at 1 wouldn't be a problem imo. Like Burial, it can't be searched, like Burial/Grass, it can get Ashed. Unlike Burial/Grass, it's weak to Droll.The only way to search it, is with Thrust, going second. And the argument can be made that Grass is better. Choice gives the benefit of choosing, but the extra material Gaines from grass makes it better for Mill decks.It wouldn't be a problematic card desu.Some decks would run it, but it'd be very specific strats.
>>539334862grass is worse painful, because you dont have to run a 60 card deck, i cant think of any deck that wouldnt want painful with a 40 card deck
>>539334862Grass is not better. It is luck based and requires you to run an oversized deck which further reduces the odds of drawing the card. If you hit 4 lucky mills off of Grass you're probably winning the game. Painful does that every single time. And running Grass cuts you off from running a bunch of engines that will fall apart if a vital piece gets milled unlike Painful Choice. Just making the comparison to Grass at all doesn't make it sound like something that should be unbanned.>>539335214It wouldn't break the game because you can't reliably base your whole strategy around it not counting some gimmick combo deck that would search it but it's a card that would make the game worse for existing because it's such an overpowered bullshit instawin card for the decks that would run it.And this isn't even considering the fact that you can just ignore the milling function and reveal 5 starters with it in any random deck.
>>539335609not even starters, with insects i could put in 3 resos, 2 gokipoles, its a painful choice, but not for me
>>539334176>>539334862>>539335214These are the people telling you Apo is fine.
>activate Painful Choice>Dormouse>March Hare>White Rabbit>Druiswurm>DruiswurmOh yeah, it's gaming time.
Soul Charge probably actually wouldn't be a big deal though. >requires you to have GY setup>which would mean you're already winning>is a brick otherwise>would only amount to getting like one more boss monster on top of your already game winning board>or would only be good on followup turns>even harsher restriction than the one that rendered Dark Ruler no More to unplayabilityIt would only actually be good once in a blue moon when your spot removal spam deck cleared the field of your opponent's material spam deck and they sacked into the card that lets them get the material back. But nobody would actually run it because of how rare that would be compared to the games it bricks.Still there's no real reason to bring it back unless they wanted to make a deck that searches it which would be fine if the deck was fine.
if you think soul charge should come back you werent playing when soul charge was legalfuck that nigger card
>>539338631Snake Eyes had their own Soul Charge and never bothered with it. It's an outdated type of card. Again, no reason to bring back a card that nobody would run and would just be annoying for low rank players but it's not a good card.
>>539336351>activate Painful Choice>tear kash>havnis>scheiren>reino>sulliek
when's the new eldlich support expected to drop?
>>539338978It's one of the last archetypes to not get their cards released from its OCG pack so it's probably in the next one.
>Ackshyully, [Broken card] could come off the banlist! Nobody would even play it!!!If nobody would play it, why unban it?
>>539339327Could is not the same word as should.
>>539332584>obedience schooled.dekit'll probably be finemaybe they'll go from tier 2 to tier 1 in vsk9 meta
I'm convinced that if the TCG+OCG had banned say, Sprind instead of Elf that there wouldn't be any of this fearmongering over Elf's legality. Elf is good but it's not the crazy format warping card some people act like it is.
>>539340578>fearmongering over Elfwho did this? Elf was mentioned briefly as one of the weird "it's okay in master duel" card

BANLIST PREDICTION! PLEASE KONAMI SAVE MASTER DUEL FAST!
Is this pack worth it? It looks expsnesive but the card is cute. Would it improve the dragonmaid structure decks I got? (I only use cute cards btw)
>miragetoo slow by today's standards. nobody would play this card.>painfulif you think this card is fine, you're a retard
>>539343025the 750 bundles are all worth it because it's realistically saving you gems and every card in them is a staple in some function, some super vital and some niche but still powerful, and if you get something in those 10 master packs then that's a bonus
>>539343025Yes. Ash is ran at 3 copies in most decks and the bundles are good deals.
>>539343415So the "Limited one per player" is the number of times I can purchase the bundle and not the limit of the card I can use?
>>539343540Right.
Would ya play plant?
>>539344753I like individual plant archetypes like Ragnaraika or Aroma but it doesn't feel like you can play individual archetypes with plant and if you're not playing some massive pile with them you're actively gimping yourself in more than one way, and that just doesn't appeal to me (plus that shit's expensive as fuck)
>>539343025>>539343540Yeah, you should probably get all of those bundles eventually. They're a really good deal since they not only give you a guaranteed UR staple but also 10 Master packs for only 750 gems when they usually cost 1000.I recommend you getting the Ash Blossom, Infinite Impermanence first since those are played at 3 copies in most decks. Also Triple Tactic Talent is a very powerful card that can be ran as a 1 of too.

What kinds of spinoff games could Yugioh work as? Fightan game immediately comes to mind but what other genres might work?
>>539385217Pokemon clone. Except with cards.
>>539385217A Fire Emblem type turn-based strategy game. Stuff like crits and chance-to-hit mimics the variation inherent to the card game while the strategic gameplay reflects the more measured pace of the original game. Plus you would get to play around with a wider variety of units, whereas something like a fighting game limits you to mostly humanoid characters. There's even a precedent for it with things in the manga like Dungeon Dice Monsters and games like Duelist of the Roses.

>>539390745Stop being a little bitch, you troon. Get over yourself.
>>539389531whats the best way to learn how to play maliss?
>>539389531Honestly cut the Drolls and max out on Lancea. It only kills decks Maliss usually stomps already.
>>539389531I personally would swap imperm for the other ghost girls or something. It's not high impact enough for going second, and it's useless if you draw into it through your monsters.Personally, I run Ultimate Slayer. It's not OPT, and Aggregator fucks Ryzeal. It's great going second, and really good for the crackback on turn 3.
>>539391281That's stupid advice. Droll is good against Maxx C/Charmies, which fuck you.Throwing in extra Lancea simply isn't worth it, in fact, I'd personally just cut Lancea all-together simply cause not enough people are running it, and the extra boost from Designator/Lancea simply isn't worth it mathematically either.
>>539389531You should be running 3x Allure. It's an extremely good extender.
>>539391061You're playing the best deck in the game by miles. Not only that but was fighting a deck at help you. You're fucking pathetic

Maliss is cool, and I hope they don't gut it like the TCG.
Every time I launch this game and get hit with maxx c going second it reminds me why I hate it so fucking much
>>539395938they should ban every link monster
>>539395938TCG is full of trannies that are personally offended by beauty standards, and loser tryhards that genuinely hate anime.OCG is full of horny men that like cute anime girls.TCG butchers Maliss to appease its mentally ill community.OCG gives it a slap on the wrist cause it's popular.MD follows the OCG because the larger part of the Yu-Gi-Oh community is in the OCG regions.TCG is irrelevant. Always has been. Always will be.
>>539396086I don't normally like Link monsters. I just enjoy Maliss's pattern of cycling through the banish zone.I wish they weren't so oppressive. However, I feel like it's hard to balance them. If you gut their enablers like Splash Mage, Apo, and Decoder, you hurt a lot of worse link decks.

i managed to hold my own against maliss with my dinomorphia deck during the qualifiers. but now that they have their ignister support im not doing so hot.should i just learn ryzeal now for the duelist cup if i want the gems? i crafted the ryzeal cards i was missing because everyone thought eclipse twins was coming and managed to get a royal. how much does eclipse twins change the combos or gameplan, it cant be that much, can it?
We need to hack konami's servers just to make the damn games fair.
>>539401938>how much does eclipse twins change the combos or gameplan, it cant be that much, can it?Eclipse Twins is literally just Ryzeal Plug-in but in the Extra Deck. You send it off Ext and attach it to Detonader in case it gets outed so you can re-summon it and give it two more materials. There's more advanced stuff you can do with it but that's the main idea.
I just realized they're not doing the "free pack for 3 duels" thing any more. Was that just a...3 time thing?

why doesn't this game have bo3 when a coinflip can often decide a duel
>>539411236Because you can just play 3 games against 3 different people and if you win 2/3 then you get closer to ranking up. There's no reason to force people to commit to 2-3 games at once when this isn't a tournament where one match loss is a major deal.

>>539412136Wow so after game 2 of you flipping a bunch of floodgates on them in game 3 they can flip a bunch of floodgates on you. Awesome.
>>539412136so what if you can side deck, they can do the same shit against youits like the maxx c argument all over again
Reminder that the OCG often hosts bo1 tournaments as it's how the game was designed to be played and makes for a more enjoyable casual experience.This obsession with needing to have bo3 comes from TCG tryhards who treat this game like a career or sport where you must win at all costs. It does not in-fact make the game more fun. It just increases the odds of you getting sacked by a silver bullet that was sided in games 2 & 3.Learning to navigate bo1 is actually more skillful as it encourages a more careful risk-reward factor in regard to deck building.

>dueslist cup reward.So, the next pack would be ancient dragon, orcust, serpent night dragon / dragon rulers? Looks like a skip pack.
>>539438861Orcust is an unironically a meta deck in this iteration and it's cheap as fuck.
>>539438861last duelist cup was penguin rewardswhere's the pack?
>>539438861It better not, I've so many gems...
What's the difference between "cards included in this pack" vs "featured cards"?
>>539444141This bundle gives you secret packs. In secret packs the left half of cards pull from the master pack pool(almost every card in the game) and the right half are all featured cards. The guaranteed SR/URs are always the last card in the last pack so at least those will always be featured.
>>539444349I see, I didn't know it was half and half. But I'm guessing that if I wanted to make a Witchcrafter deck odds are those 20 packs are not going to be enough, right?
are we not making a new thread?
>>539444590youre going to make any deck without a bit of crafting, so you get a bulk of the cards you want and a chance at chance you want with guaranteed 20 UR dust
>>539444590Probably not. Also Aleister+Mechaba+Invocation are all usually SR cards but these are the alt arts which get rarity bumped to UR so they're clogging up the UR slots if you don't care about them. I would suggest not making a Witchcrafter deck. It's bad enough that it makes it unfun to play even casually.
>>539434735>competitivelythe closest thing to a competitive event are the duelist cupsand people tag duel in real life all the time, so your subjective claim of "tag duels are only fun if you're dueling alongside anime waifus" is also incorrect

Yo guys new player here I got like 9825 gems and have a hard time deciding what deck to go for. Any suggestions? I already bought the ash blossom set. To be honest I wanna feel powerful and win a lot and build the latest meta, but I also see people saying that you should build a deck thats fun to play thats still competitive. Are most people here like the former or the latter, and how many people here spend real money on this game? How many gems on average do you need to build a meta deck? How much is the cheapest competive deck? I need all the important info spoonfed to me.
>>539447465play what you like, but you should still avoid completely horrible decks because losing 9 times out of ten isn't fun
>>539447594How do I know if a deck is completely horrible
>>539448470Check HIS website for an empirical and unbiased analysis.
>>539448470Anything not top 2
>>539448470https://www.masterduelmeta.com/tier-list
>>539447465Yeah, you don't need to build a top deck, but don't build something completely garbage tier like Toons. The novelty of winning with something like that wears off quickly compared to all the times you lose with nothing you could've done.Most decks cost about 8k gems to get the core cards for the archetype. You may have to make some budget substitutions on the hand traps/extra deck if you don't want to put everything into optimizing one deck but that's fine as a new player. If you just want something that's good enough to start playing the game against other players then some of the structure decks like Ninjas or Raidraptor are good enough for climbing through the low ranks. A mediocre but experienced player can take decks of that power level to plat 1 with like a 90% winrate if they don't get unlucky. plat 1 is not at ALL impressive but I'm just saying that low ranks aren't very competitiveIf you just want to build the best deck then it's Maliss or Ryzeal. Maliss just left the shop so it's Ryzeal.
>>539447465The cheapest decks you can play competently on ladder would probably be either the Red Dragon Archfiend or Raidraptor Structure Decks. You can grab them for cheap and make it through low ranks without issue while you decide on what you want to build for your first 'real' deck
>>539447465well, you can't really make Maliss right now, it would cost way more gems than that because their pack is gone from the shop for nowRyzeal is the second best deck and their pack is still around, you could probably try that, but you'll also be missing a bunch of UR staples/extra deck cards, I also really don't think that's enough gems for a entire meta ryzeal decklist
>>539445381>archetype full of soul>absolutely unplayable packfiller garbage>new support deliberately designed to keep the deck badwhy does Konami do this so often
>>539449486only konami approved decks are allowed to be good
>>539449582It seems like Witchcrafter specifically gets shafted more than others though, I still cant believe we saw a hard -3 fusion spell printed in 2022
>>539449582The weird part is that it's not Konami approved. It's on a similar level of popularity as like Live Twins or Dragonmaids in spite of being so awful and those decks have gotten support that's kept them at least playable, often on a rogue level while Witchcrafters gets cards that do nothing to help its viability.
Now that we have more Magistus/Witchcrafter lore is WC Verre the same as Magistus Verre or is it her granddaughter?
>>539448616>Anything not top 2So its literally just ryzeal and maliss?>>539448784Like anything on that page or just tier 1 to tier 3?>>539448908>>539448970Would I need to buy multiple copies of the same structure deck after deciding which archetype I want to play? Also do people do this to save gems if they dont like the current meta and wait till a new good meta deck comes out? Will it be long till theres a new meta deck that comes out?>>539449057So Id need to grind more gems to get the full meta ryzeal?
>>539450884>Like anything on that page or just tier 1 to tier 3?The others are playable they can reach master 1 with some grinding but the two top ones are the strongest now. anyway you should just play a structure deck and see if there is a deck you like before committing to anything
>>539450660It's the same character. I didn't think there was ever any ambiguity.I wouldn't take the manga lore as canon though. A lot of what was in the Sky Striker one seems to have been retconned by the MD solo mode+animation stuff.
>>539450884depends but you'll want 2-3 of a structure deck to make sure you're maxed out on the good cards and can scrap the bad oneseg raidraptor needs 2 for a second rising rebellion falcon and third bloom vulture
>>539452027you can buy structure decks multiple times?
>>539450884>Would I need to buy multiple copies of the same structure deck after deciding which archetype I want to play?Yes. The structure decks are terrible to play as actual decks. But they're an extremely cheap way to get the cards so you buy 2-3 copies of the deck to get 3 copies of all the good cards then replace all the bad ones. Not all structure decks are equal though. Early ones like the pend mage or spellbook ones don't give you close to a full deck, then like the Gaia or Dark Magician ones do give you the full deck but are terrible decks anyway, or like the Salamangreat one is kinda good but it got new cards since that released that you'd really want anyway so you'd still need to dedicate more gems to it.The decent to pretty good ones that don't need a ton of additional cards would be like, Raid Raptor, Ninjas, Blackwings, Red Dragon Archfiend, Cyberdark, and maybe Dragonmaids. Dragonmaids will be one of the best ones when their missing cards very likely release in a couple weeks.
>>539450884>So Id need to grind more gems to get the full meta ryzeal?Probably, but it's still a good investment, especially since the pack is expiring in 20 days, so it'd be even more expensive to make afterwords. Ryzeal will probably be top tier for the foreseeable future (and even better when eclipse twins comes out), and it's splashable with a lot of things like fiendsmith, and mitsurugi in the future.That said, you probably would want to get a structure deck deck put together, just so you have something to play. I like ninjas. But that's a whole 'nother thing, where you just have to play a bunch of different decks to figure out what style of deck you like playing.
