If it has the DABL support then its plenty competent and consistent. full armor master is a house, and chinook is a really good handtrap your opponent probably cant respond to if you activate it in the damage step Rigged Death Trap fucked around with this message at 20:34 on May 4, 2023 |

Your best bet is probably getting into Master Duel and going through the tutorials and solo gates. That will teach you all the rules and give you an idea about various decks and playstyles. From there you should have enough gems and resources to start building a more competitive deck, so just look up resources on what kind of playstyle you are interested in playing and what decks would be a good fit for that playstyle while still being relatively competitive .

If you're playing with specific people and know what they play, I suggest finding something that specifically makes that gameplay style hard and get really good at that. Just to give them headaches.

Just keep in mind that Master Duel operates under a different rule set, so what works there won't nessissarily be as good in cardboard.

Master Duel's gonna be great to get a vibe of both the rules, and the sort of cards you like. However, I do still recommend finding out what aort of decks your friends play, not just because it'd be funny to counter them, but in large part to get a feel for how serious they're taking it. You don't want to turn up to a friendly event where everyone's playing low-powered favorite decks with modern meta-defining power players--but at the same token, you also don't want to turn up with a 'this looks cute and fun' pet deck when everyone else is basically competing with world championship-tenor decks. We can probably help you with all that with the right info. Like, are they playing the physical game, or with some kind of simulator? Do you know the names of any decks your friends play? And while it's probably hard to gauge especially early, do you know the sort of deck you want to play?

Ok im joking about actually beating them i dont want to spend any money on yu gi oh and i plan on playing whatever cards they have on hand lol I just want to learn how to play the game so i know what im doing when i play against them, i cant afford another hobby alongside warhammer so i dont actually want to go through the process a million packs and boxes just to have a decent deck unless there was some way to buy an exact cards i want or whatever. Ill try out the game on steam and learn as much as i can before i commit to physically buying any

And while not 100% up to date, Legacy of the Duelist: Link Evolution is a fairly simple way to get a bunch of cards and toy around with various decks without being limited by MD's gems. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1150640/YuGiOh_Legacy_of_the_Duelist__Link_Evolution/ There's currently a 75% off sale.

If you want your own deck, the most recent structure deck (Traptrix) should still be easy enough to find and turn into a functional deck by simply buying three copies and combining all the best cards into a 40 card deck + 15 card extra deck + 15 card side deck. Out of the box it's versatile enough, and it can easily be upgraded into something more powerful on a relatively small budget.

Three copies of the Salamangreat deck in Master Duel gives you basically 90% of a competitive deck, and has some cards that are pretty universally good for Cyberse archetypes as well

Yeah. There's a number of structure decks in the Master Duel store that could easily be turned into something playable on ladder with the addition of a few staples. Just a heads up though. Master Duel is currently basically dominated by a very powerful deck, and with at least another month before that pack leaves the store, there's no bans on the horizon to fix that situation. If you just want to dick around in the lower ranks it's not likely that you'll run into it though.

If you are willing to do a crash course into advanced mechanics or strategy of Yu-Gi-Oh, it is currently inexpensive to build the currently strongest deck in master duel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yilr1lrs06E (This video is slightly out of date with the most recent banlist.) Keep in mind that you will have to learn the various interactions and rulings that these cards imply and that they may been hit by the banlist soon (though I imagine that the deck would still be decently strong after limitations or bans from the Master Duel banlist).

There are websites like TCGPlayer devoted to letting you pick up specific cards without having to go through the hassle of buying randomized product. Keep in mind though that some decks are STILL expensive to put together just because all their cards only exist at high rarities, while other decks might have 1 or 2 key cards that exist at high rarity only and therefor demand a huge price tag while everything else is pennies.

While I don't know why they're doing that, I also am entirely unsurprised they're doing it, given what I know about Australian customs and restrictions. I wouldn't be surprised if Traptrix tripped alarms for our weirdly arcane and nonsense adult content restrictions that come up every couple years and then immediately get dropped out of the news cycle because it's loving impossible to actually report on without looking like a creep.

Yeah Id say get into the Master duel solo gates to learn how the game is, then drop into one of the simulators for actually testing decks.

It seems that the "Legacy Pack" option is now permanently shown under the "Bonus Pack" section whereas the option would have only shown up if you had any legacy packs when you opened the section.ZenMasterBullshit posted:Can I dust the cards from those packs yet?

I really wish the release of a Master Duel structure deck would come with the same rush of content creators posting guides and stuff that you get with the release of a TCG structure deck.

Al-Saqr posted:Ok i found out what the physical card decks my yu gi oh friends have Branded and swordsoul are the two strongest out of those decks, so those ones I would focus on learning how to counterplay, but honestly a big part of competitive yugioh is learning the ins and outs of *every deck*, since if you don't know the chokepoints and counterplay against almost any competent strategy they can take advantage of it and defeat you much easier. As far as what deck you should play, it honestly just depends on what kind of playstyle you like. If money's not an issue the current top deck is Kashtira which would do well against all those decks, but if you want something more casual and for fun (and that likely won't get hit on the banlist in a few months or so) I'd just ask your friends what decks they like and why, and playtest some of them in an unofficial simulator like EDOPRO or Duelingbook

As a beginner against those deck, maybe Mathmech or Purrely? Your focus would be bringing out your super tower that can ram them over and ignore majority of their gimmick and counterplay.

Al-Saqr posted:Ok i found out what the physical card decks my yu gi oh friends have - Normal summon Mo Ye, reveal a Swordsoul or Wyrm card in your hand to summon a tuner token - Synchro summon Chixiao. Trigger Chixiao (search a card) as chain link 1, trigger Mo Ye (draw a card) as chain link 2 - When Chixiao resolves search for Longyuan. If you already have Longyuan or a way to get it then search Swordsoul Blackout instead - Use Longyuan's effect (discarding a Wyrm or Swordsoul card) to summon itself and a token, synchro summon Baronne de Fleur This leaves you with a monster negate on Chixiao, a "negate anything" on Baronne and ideally a trap that can destroy two cards. It's pretty reliable since you can do it with Mo Ye, Swordsoul Emergence (can add Mo Ye to your hand) or Ecclesia (summons Mo Ye from deck). You can also make a similar play with Taia as long as you can get a Swordsoul/Wyrm into your GY. Past turn one there are a lot of more involved plays you can make. Some notable options you may have access to are Ecclesia (she can summon herself from hand without using your normal summon if your opponent has more monsters than you, so you can potentially go for both Mo Ye and Taia), Baxia (an excellent option to make with Taia, you can wipe out two of your opponent's cards and potentially get back a Mo Ye you sent to the GY with Taia's effect to make further plays) and Chengying (an alternate monster you can make with Longyuan, he can get huge and has a very powerful removal effect).
