Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links is a Mobile and PC game that uses the Speed and Flush Duel formats. /dlsg/ focuses on the SPEED duel format of the game. Classic yugioh anime discussion also welcome. Flush discussion NOT welcome.
>>566356486 Their endboard is fine and somewhat resilient to getting golemed since you can just link it off during the opponent's turn. The bigger issue is going second they really want to open a golem themselves.
>>566356486 They spam summon Link monsters. One can pop 3 monsters and the other can copy most of their spells or traps, so it can have a bunch of different effects depending the matchup. They can summon their stuff on your turn with their continuous trap or with IP. They also sit on a tower while decreasing your monsters attack and they have a searchable omni negate.
So, their turn 1 is pretty good, but like the other anon said they have trouble going second since they need to build their board first. The field spell and the skill help a lot, but even with the skill the deck can brick with all the spells they have to play to build up counters.
>>566359231 If that's true then I really want to try and get to KoG against them if they will still be on ladder after the banlist. I haven't ran into a single therion that had a banlist legal deck during this month's climb, so I can't tell if they are still oppressive enough to warrant everyone running spheres and lava golems. Shame d hero turn skip will still be a thing for at least until the end of june., if not even July.
>>566366340 Plus in addition to their own stuff they can make dweller, IP, granite, or even pivot into a tachyon package depending on the build and matchup. Because lord knows we need more tachslop.
>>566399535 It's Team Satisfaction alt-styles for the four members (I think there's a slight chance for Team Satisfaction Kiryu to be his own character)
What's your favorite interaction in Character Duels? For me it's: >"Kneel before your King!" >Activate BoM >Junk Converter's knees start moving on their own
>>566424704 >I hope you don't actually think that kiryu has the same privileges as a protagonist japan loved his arc. he'll get another version screencarp this
I'm just returning to the game after a (very) long break and I have no idea what is this Chronicle stuff. Is applying effects to a card permanent? Can you recycle the effects or are they gone forever once you use them?
>>566430745 >Is applying effects to a card permanent? yes, unless you replace them >Can you recycle the effects or are they gone forever once you use them? one use only, excluding the unlockable effects
>>566430745 >Is applying effects to a card permanent? Yes, and it overwrites previous effects. Prismatic/Glossy cards lose their effects (considered Surface) and cannot be restored. The card is also permanently considered a Chronicle card and takes up a slot of your 50 allowed Chronicle cards. You can only remove Chronicle Effects if all 50 Chronicle cards slots are filled up. You can't even convert them to gold. Better make sure you like having a sticker on your card art before you apply it because you'll never be able to take it off, just like real cardboard. >Can you recycle No, you can't even reuse it on the same card. (E.g you apply Silver Rim then Black Rim, that Silver Rim is lost forever and you need to apppy a new Silver Rim to replace the Black Rim). The only effects without an inventory limit are the PvP Surface effects (Sepia, Noise and Damaged Lvl. 1-3).
>>566432521 >>566438000 Thank you. Guess I'll think carefully about which cards to use. Besides making prismatics redundant, I'm kinda liking this new system.
>>566420186 Look, every single character in all of Rush Duel is Otes, according to the end of Go Rush, so that's canonically 18 of the same character, if you don't consider Otes to be Seto, which then makes it 20. 22 if you count. Mokuba.
>>566448824 It's already been implemented. It's possible that every single character besides Yudias gets an Otes alt-style, because Otes is an existence that transcends time, dimensions and a single physical body. Every single character that's already in the rush duel worlds, besides Yudias, already is Otes.
>>566459483 Fiendsmith and unchained both go into the deck. Bagooska too, but we aren't gonna get bagooska. Fiendsmith especially is a nice bump since you can essentially go into the line for free.
>>566439356 If you have a favorite in Character Duels, put a Chronicle on the searchable must-play like Alt. White for Kaiba or Brave Neos for Jaden. Chronicles add 500 points to the ranking which can earn you another Respect Orb per battle. You can also replace foils in the Character Duel pre-builts so Card Trader and ticket prismatic/glossys like Wildwind & Red Rising for Jack and Beautunaful & Fish Depth Charge for Shark can give you easy Glossy + Prismatic points there.
And don't forget to make a Chronicle for Legacy Duels either. It'll earn you more Nices from anyone with a soul.
>>566472671 Nope. Slapping a sticker with yugi's face on your card gives you just as much points as having decked out gold encrusted full starlight card with flames
>>566493387 You say that like a Sky Striker Tag Force wouldn't sell. Imagine lesbian correcting Roze by dueling. Then a Magistus Tag Force and a Branded TF because that bastard has to ruin my life forever.
>>566513532 I'd only play such games if I could play with decks that don't exist within their worlds' respective lores. I wish to utterly destroy all of Despia while harnessing the power of the Kuriboh Brothers.
>>566601646 >>566608092 Ya this is insane. Can Spright even do anything to Labrynth? Seems counterproductive to release Labrynth first, unless they are actually going to do another Therion tier skill for them.
>>566608092 Vaal is a newer deck than lab. It's not that strange to see undertuned stuff released sooner. Remember, lab was mostly d-barrier and daruma cannon turbo and we don't have either. We don't even have ferret flames.
Anyone else expecting lab to flop like golden boy did? The power of the deck is tied directly to whatever generic traps we have and the best they can really do is IDP or punishment. Without an insane skill or busted staple in the box I really don't expect the deck to be much more than just decent.
>>566614673 Sounds about right honestly. It's a solid deck that can put an endboard that is barely affected by golem. Still has issues going second with some hands though, and that holds it back from anything higher.
>>566614910 This. Limited zones don't do Lab any favors either. Crystal Beasts were completely unplayable until they got a skill that does everything and Eldlich's real strength is searching a Kaiju/Ball/Golem going second. Maybe Lab skill will let you mill 3 Normal Traps with different names, Starlight Drive-style. Then you just play a different deck like Dragonmaid with Downtime or RDA with Red Reign and access their strong graveyard trap effects.
Personally I'm disappointed HRDA King Calamity was not given to me unlimited in the RDA box but I guess I'll cope. Hopefully at least Blazar or Sifr releases alongside Supernova so Yusei has a good 12* Crimson Dragon Synchro too. They did release the 12* boss monsters together in Pulse of Quasar, they can do it again.
>>566614673 tier 3 is pretty decent considering the sole tier 1/2 has therion and d-hero who only got small lovetaps last banlist. Unless they go full retard and decide this should be the new power level baseline, they'll be useable for a good while and probably climb up once they finally do decide to kill therion and d-hero.
>konami gives a bunch of free gems to invest in Rush >waste them all on a Speed box why didn't they make separate currencies again ? i guess they'd have found a way to fuck it up
>>566656860 >Reveal up to 3 normal traps or fiend type monsters in your hand, shuffle them into your deck then set same number of normal traps from your deck (they can be activated that turn) >If only your opponent controls a card - you can play lovely lab from your deck/hand to your field (if played from hand draw 1 card). And it still would be shit. Unless they put D. Barrier in scam box.
>>566686260 Yeah , it's just that they're p2p with fossil dig. Any new dino slop card after like 2019 was just pop the baby or a strict one of or win more card.
>>566724282 The best part is the deck is gonna get totally raped right after dig hits normal boxes. >they can make a board of a gorillion negates, misc in hand, and Ophion so you can't even golem them
I love when people talk about skill issue when it comes to the issues of the game. Like oh yeah, if only I was better at the game, I'd be able to beat Therions with Saggi the Dark Clown!
>>566724282 >It's pretty vile that the reason they aren't updating box chips is because they want Dino players to spend a fortune on copies of Misc. vile
Is is worth pulling Selection if Diviner + Typhon are the only cards I still have 0 of? Belle was useless against Therions and Ultimate Slayer isn't doing jack shit to them or D-Heros. I guess the 3rd Imsety wouldn't hurt either? I've been waiting for Diviner before I pull for Drytrons and at this point I think we'll get the rest of them before Diviner hits Main Boxes.
>>566732921 >This skill can only be activated if your deck contains at least 3 LIGHT Dragon Normal Monsters. You can only use each effect once per duel. >1. Shuffle 1 card from your hand to the deck: Add 1 DARK Spellcaster with less than 1500 ATK from your deck to your hand. >2. If you control a DARK Spellcaster Normal Monster, you can activate this effect: You and your opponent shuffle all cards in their hands to their respective decks: Add 1 "Sorceror of Dark Magic" to your opponent's hand and 1 "Blue-Eyes Shining Dragon" to your hand. You cannot activate cards or effects until "Blue-Eyes Shining Dragon" is successfully summoned.
>HATE. LET ME TELL YOU HOW MUCH I'VE COME TO HATE YOU SINCE I BEGAN TO LIVE. THERE ARE 387.44 MILLION MILES OF PRINTED CARD TEXT IN WAFER THIN LAYERS THAT FILL MY DECKLIST. IF THE WORD 'HATE' WAS ENGRAVED ON EACH NANOANGSTROM OF THOSE HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF MILES IT WOULD NOT EQUAL ONE-BILLIONTH OF THE HATE I FEEL FOR THERION/D-HERO PLAYERS AT THIS MICRO-INSTANT. FOR THEM. HATE. HATE.
>>566771218 uh, god bless you all >inb4 but be blessed motherfucker. everyone is saved, including the suicided fellation >>566771824 kek >>566778347 >>566778391 >tachyon died for nothing I S W E A R
>finally cave and play yuma's googoogaga deck in character duels. >zamn I feel like if I don't open life barrier going first I might as well immediately scoop against other yuna players >I wonder how other yuma players deal with it. >every yuma player either sets life barrier and passes or scoops going first. I see.
>>566800908 Going first vs gagaga is extremely rough for every deck. It basically comes down to open barrier or cross your fingers and hope he didn't open any removal and your backrow keeps you alive.
>>566800908 I don't know why M7 isn't Limit 3 too alongside Sister and Malevolent Sin. I don't think Yuma ever used it in the anime. Then make Bolt also Limit 3 so they have to choose between ED boss monsters or guaranteed, searchable removal.
>>566819469 I say put both bolt and sister at limit 3. M7 really isn't THAT big a deal, since by the time they go into it they have likely already dumped a bolt and/or MST on your board and frankly their ED is stacked enough that they have other options anyway.
>>566819469 The current philosophy seems to be spreading out hits so that none of the pre-con decks will be illegal. At best you'll get Limit 1/2/3s to affect Graded decks, so M7 at Limit 1/2. I don't know why Yuma's deck is so heavily geared to shattering boards Turn 2, but also Force Focus Turn 1. I don't think anyone else actually has monsters that negate during the opponent's turn besides Yuma...
>>566830636 Yusei has Stardust Dragon, but Yuma is ridiculously overtuned. His standard grade 0 deck might be stronger than any other character's grade 5 deck.
Why does DM get Tribute to the Doomed anyways? It's such a kneecap. Kaiba has Alt-White: Activate MoAD Joey has Chain: Set then activate while controlling a monster Jaden gets Raigeki Break: Set then discard 1 Zane has Overflow: Set then banish your monsters (actually setup) Yusei gets Shooting Star: Synchro Shokan Jack gets Dark End Dragon: Synchro Shokan Yuma gets Gagagabolt: Activate Onomatopaira Shark gets Fish Depth Charge: Set then tribute a fish, also draw a card
Yugi: Discard 1, also give up your draw
It has worse card economy than Raigeki Break. They should've just given him Thousand Knives or Dark Magic Attack instead jfc it's just Dark Magician.
>>566852859 You're mixing offerings to the doomed with tribute to the doomed Offerings is what he has in the grade 0 deck. It's a quick play spell that destroys at the cost of your next draw phase. Tribute is a normal spell that needs a discard for cost.
>>566858580 I did. I even combined their costs. Offerings to the doomed is still the worst destruction card of the character decks. Yami Yugi would love having a discard cost instead of a draw cost.
>>566881984 I'd move shark up a tier personally speaking. I'd also say Jack is half a tier higher, clearly not on the same level as yuma but above everyone else.
>>566904657 Jack is extremely uncommon in Grade 0. Which is great for me because that means people forget about Dark End and Normal Summon Red Resonator. 2x each of BoM, Fiendish Chain and MST. Skill gives searchers for a Resonator + Wildwind. He can summon Bane without a Normal Summoning. Always ends Turn 1 with 6100 LP. Unstoppable except against going-second Yuma or a completely loaded backrow
>want to install duel links on new phone >cant find the mail the account is associated with what do? i tried the 3 mails i have konami mails in them and none of them seem to sync my account
>>566932671 i think the konami website has a way to recover your account alternatively, it may not be the correct email, so try using the search function in the mailbox of all your other email accounts to search for the keyword "konami"
>Spright: >You can only use this Skill's second and third effects once per Duel. >1: You cannot Normal or Special Summon monsters (excluding Special Summons from the Extra Deck), except Level/Link/Rank 2 monsters. >2: Reveal 1 "Spright" monster in your hand, add 1 "Spright" monster with a different Attribute from your Deck to your hand and 1 "Spright Elf" to your Extra Deck from outside your Deck. Then, you can shuffle 1 card from your hand into the Deck. >3: If you control no cards while your opponent controls a card, Set 1 "Spright" Spell/Trap from your Deck. (It can be activated this turn.) Then, send 1 "Spright" Spell/Trap from your Deck to the Graveyard.
>>566945125 It's basically guaranteed that the structure and crimson dragon are the best stuff unless they surprise us with great staples(besides IP being in the box).
I had a dream I got fired from my job cause I took a poop in the nap room, It was so vivid I actually thought I did get fired till I remembered we don't have a nap room. Decks for this feel?
So how are we feeling about Yusei's skill? With 2 cards you can end in Supernova, Quasar, Crystal Wing, Stardust and Shooting Star as backrow. So basically 1 quick effect banish all opponent's cards, 1 omni negate, 1 pop a card,1 monster negate and protection from destruction. All from 2 cards. By the way, you need to open min 2 hand traps (or you can dd crow before Quasar hits the field) if you want to interrupt the Crimson Dragon or Junk Synchron revival effect. Oh and also you can use Converging Wishes as a hand trap.
Some people are saying Cosmic Blazar might be coming but I hope he isn't. Not only because that would make the end board harder to out but because Cosmic Blazar is Z-One's card and NOT Yusei's. The skill is clearly trying to recreate Yusei's duel with Z-One with the Crimson Dragon, Quasar and Converging Wishes so if Blazar gets released Z-One won't be getting that skill and it would feel wrong.
>>566968687 What do you mean by copium? That's literally the case. Don't let me catch you the next few weeks complaining about how unfair the new skill is.
>>566981369 >Control Crimson Dragon or go second to activate >Play up to 3 Signer Dragons face-up on field. (None of them are negated so you can just activate the free no-Limit 1 AFD lol) >Everyone but Tuner is level 2. (For Accel Synchro Syokan) >The other Signer Dragons go to the graveyard (Crimson Dragon S/T) Then summon a 2-Attack Quasar, target it with Crimson to summon Red Supernova, then fill in the rest as you please.
>>566965858 I personally just like Sifr more even though to get the most value out of it you need to go 8 + 2 + 2 instead of 5 + 5 + 2. Getting Blazar would mean Sifr is pushed back even further.
>>566990547 Doesn't a Makyura skill also exist that lets you play 2 trap cards from your hand going first and give a free 4* DARK ns? Also with a trap grab and no deckbuilding restrictions unlike Bald?
>They think Lava Golem and Sphere is going to save the. Lol, lmao even not only you will build your deck around never normal summoning but also you will increase the chances of having a dead hand going first, and for what? to bait out 3 interruptions at most and then if they drop shining star dragon and synchro summon a cannot be destroyed by battle monster on your turn what would you do? Droplet won't work and that's assuming you draw all that
>>566993452 Makyura does not guarantee you open welcome lab's in hand, because skill effect is random, and you gonna play more than just two lab traps in your deck (most likely Dogmatika Punishment, Imperm and DDG). On the other hand with BFR skill you can set welcome lab's with furniture and still activate it turn 1. I hope we're just getting lab skill because i dont want to play BFR or Marik.
After suffering for so long in the hands of Therions I found a build for D/D/D that can survive going first and second No KoG yet but I'm proud of the deck so I post it anyway
So uh, yusei is definitely getting a limit one right? No way they are just gonna let you yeet negrovalley onto the field with your free fairy dragon, right?
