They put up an addendum on those dates in-game. You won't be forced to spend Christmas Day grinding to Diamond 1.

That being said, blech at another Kaiba Cup.

Got most of my ishizu tear deck together. Mavens has some good rear end reprints.

I got Appolousa and Mo Ye in mine (in one pack even) but also like.. Red Eyes Black Dragon, Catshark (at least I know why this one got a reprint but) and Dark Soul Token. The only Ishizu card I got was Shadow Imprisoning Mirror. Some fuckin' filler in that thing that's for sure.

Shadow-Imprisoning Mirror used to be a pretty good side deck option back before there were better general-purpose floodgates.

I love Yu-Gi-Oh's attitude towards reprints, but coming in from Magic, the idea that tokens would take up an actual slot for a card in a booster is pretty silly.

It is cool that there's "official tokens" with artwork so you have something more than a coin or counter. Agreed it should not take space over actual cards, but what's one bit of packfiller trash over another?

I like shiny, unique tokens when they're an extra in a structure box like the Charmers ones, having it take up space in a '4 packs containing 5 rare cards' special box sucks rear end

Personally I'm more offended they wasted a slot on Aileron in the set. :v:

Stun is the light, the love and the way. The enemy wishes to abuse insanely powerful new products made so strong to push sales. The only way to stop them from harming the game and themselves is to punish them for playing in such a manner.

Depends on the rarity but yeah, you gotta sleeve those cards up asap. heck, i remember buying structure decks before, taking them out of the box but not unseaing the wrapper, and those cards curling up in the wrapper.

Looks like they have listen to feedback. Not only are they bringing back loaner decks, they are having multiple loaner decks in one event according to leaks.

I'm not even sure that's "listening to feedback". I got the notion the the Link Event was meant to be a more competitive event like the Duelist Cup given it had its own ladder, which would make the lack of loaners make far more sense.

Edit: 8-Axis might actually do well in this event provided Konami stop banning Danger! Bigfoot and Gizmek Orochi...

I was playing last night, low Platinum ranked duels, and it was really weird. Whenever I presented so much as a hint of a threat (or a disruption, if I was going second) my opponent immediately scooped. Was that just people scrambling to wrap up the season pass?

Surrendering does not give exp for the battle pass, so I doubt it.

It's entirely possible they were scooping in hopes of being matched with an opponent they could curbstomp, rather than having a drawn-out duel.
