enemy controller is versatile and can steal monsters to steal games and people ran it at 3 in every deck before they put it to 2

Taintrunner posted:Okay I put 25 bucks into Duel Links and now I have Kaiba with his first skill - Mountain - and an all dragon deck that I think is pretty good at steamrolling? I’ll post a screen cap later. ECon's first mode changes a monster to defense position, which is like negating an attack but with the extra benefit of still being able to do it against things like Ancient Gears and Mirage Dragon. And ECon's second mode lets you sacrifice a monster to steal a monster for one turn. This can be to steal your opponent's biggest monster to stall them from swinging with a full board, to swing at them with their own beater, or to 1-for-1 if you use it for a tribute immediately after. Hell, once I even used it to steal a Blue Eyes in response to Burst Stream of Destruction, which was amazing. Did you get the White Dragon of Legends structure deck? It sucks having to pay real money for more than one copy, but if you already did, then Dragon Spirit of White is an MVP, and Bingo Machine, Go! does wonders for the deck's consistency. girl dick energy fucked around with this message at 09:31 on Dec 28, 2018 |

Great post, thanks! Yeah, the structure deck was one of the first things I bought. I also ordered a physical version I’m waiting to come in the mail. I also finally finished assembling my first TCG deck, is there an easy way to share it and maybe get your guys’ review of it?

What you want to do is post a really blurry image of the cards stacked over each other in such a way that we can't see the text or the art and have to guess what they are based on the slivers of colour we can see.

Lord of D is rarely gonna actually happen. Work on leveling up Mokuba to get one or two copies of Ancient Rules, instead. (I think rank reward tickets can give you them, too.) Kidmodo Dragon is a Mokuba drop, and can also work as filler monsters. So can Blue Dragon Summoner, from the Card Trader. And you shouldn't be running so many traps if you're running Treacherous. (Grats on getting one, though.) I'd work on getting an Enemy Controller from Kaiba, that'll take up your two semilimited slots. And if you also get a Champion's Vigilance, rad.

So it appears Konami is bringing the Speed Duel format from Duel Links into the physical game, found two starter sets for it at Target today, each had 3 different ~20 card decks in it(which at the normal 10 bucks range that most Starter & Structure Decks cost is not a bad deal), will be interesting to see how well it does and how much support Konami ends up giving it

I wonder if it allows Pendulum or something because I don't know if they did any rule books online yet. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3BTxUt1hC8U Featuring Pegasus!

Speed dueling is only legal if the victor is allowed to call their opponent a third rate duelist with a fourth rate deck

Yeah nothing is tier zero right now in Duel Links, but KMs is pretty close. The trick is to play a slow game with them since they run out of resources fast. Buster Blader counters it completely if they get DNA surgery + the fusion on board, and of course since that's going to be a t1 meta deck, Blue-Eyes can't compete. However, yeah, Blue-Eyes seems to be The poo poo in physical speed duels, because like a few years ago in the Red-Eyes-dominated duel links meta, Champion's Vigilance at 3 and having a large beatstick on board is a hell of a thing to try to counter in the limited format. Magic Jammer to stop Flute of Summoning Dragon is an instant out to pretty much the whole deck, but it's more consistent for Blue-Eyes to get their combo going (because of the Dragon Caller skill) than other decks to draw into their counters.

But of course Blue-Eyes are the number one deck. Konami just can't help themselves from jerking off to Kaiba again.

My Horus deck seems to be doing decently against the meta? I got to Silver 5 and people tend to disconnect or just scoop when LV4 drops. Found this one in the decklist thing, been trying it as my main.  Don't see the point of Silent Swordsman since Horus LV6 is basically the same thing but it does have a higher ATK. This also has no way to stop backrow which is annoying while my deck can at least stop Traps during the Battle Phase.

There are a ton of deck lists posted like that in-game, where they include cards that either don't actually work the way they think they work (like all the Synchro decks that run that one spell card that turns a level 4 normal monster into a tuner... and then don't actually include any normal monsters it can be used on) or just straight up include cards they can't use at all (like all the decks that run Fusion monsters in the Extra deck with no way to actually fuse them). You also get deck lists that are basically just "Structure Deck but with a few cards added/changed," "Structure Deck that is completely unaltered," and my personal favorites, "Character's default starting deck with no changes at all." Doesn't help that the deck list search function is absolute rear end because you can't filter by specific words or card names.

I feel like a hipster complaining about it, but it's disheartening that everyone is playing AGG so hardcore that it's flooding the ladder and getting preboarded against. Funniest tech I've seen though is Cursed Sea of the Forbidden Spell just loving eating Geartown.  Currently running an AGGUP OTK build with Mausoleum of the Emperor just to dodge most of the usual techs. Also because it's hilarious to see someone prep for a back row deck and then get demolished by a 3k piercing beater swinging twice. Edit: Side bonus of Cursed Seal, it also kills Diamond Core, which can be devastating considering how much the deck relies on tutoring for consistency. girl dick energy fucked around with this message at 23:35 on Feb 8, 2019 |

Dropped $10 on a Google Play Card at work today, used it to pick up the Ancient Gear deck, then used the remainder on the "3 packs + 1 guaranteed UR" sale to try and snag a few URs I wanted, wound up getting three out of the six I wanted, which wasn't too bad. Went with Tornado of Phantoms for Elemental HERO Great Tornado (got it!), Revolution Beginning for a second Karakuri Shogun Mdl 00 "Burei" (got a second Ancient Sacred Wyvern instead), Blackstorm Rising for Sakuretsu Armor (got it!), Secrets of the Forest for Armedes, Keeper of Boundaries (got Ancient Fairy Dragon instead), Clash of Wings for Widespread Ruin (got it!) and Generation Next for Floodgate Trap Hole (got Evil Dragon Ananta instead).

I played some Yugioh on PSP a while ago and really enjoyed it so now I want to pick it up on my phone and play it during breaks at work and stuff. I took a look at Duel Links and I'm kind of paralyzed by the amount of meta. Can I just buy from a box that looks like it has stuff I would have fun playing with and put together a deck of (I'm pulling these out of thin air) penguins? Or skeletons? and win some games? Or do I actually need to make sure I have X amount of Y magic card in all my decks to even have a chance? I mean one of the things that really impressed me playing it on PSP was that it had like 4000 cards or something ridiculous like that so I was always digging up new crazy stuff I'd never even heard of to try out. Then I was getting curbstomped because all the NPCs were running broken combo decks with multiples of all the really powerful magic cards so...

YGOPro is a free fan made yugioh game that has all the cards unlocked and you can play against other people online. Can probably find a link in the discord. e: Better get used to getting curbstomped though if you're coming back to this game.

If you're leaning towards the first two, just about, yeah. Most PvE and casual PvP can be done just fine with the drops NPCs give and a bit of grinding. Either sink your gems into whatever newish box and starter decks look good or whatever one has cards that supports an archetype you want to play in particular. (One of the recent ones has stuff that plays great with Kaiba and his Blue-Eyes, for example.) If you're trying to be Good, though, or think you might want to at some point?

One thing I would advise is prioritizing Rank missions, that's where the fun opponents are hiding. Then once you can fight level 30s and 40s, start looking up some good PvE cards to grind for. For example, high level Kaiba can drop Enemy Controller which is an auto 2-of in any deck that doesn't need a different card more.
