Mitchhas been a fan of Nintendo ever since he got his start on the GBA in 2005. When he's not busy playing games or writing, you can find him down at his local MMA training facility learning how to punish the unrighteous.

As someone that goes to tournaments once in a while and is a fan on the anime, I'm having quite some fun with my Monarch deck. But hope they'll add more modes so there are duels for starter decks against starter decks, instead of only rabked where you can be destroyed by the best decks in the game at any moment


Longtime player here--of course Yugioh has changed since y'all played it 15 years ago! It does take a solid time investment to learn what all the new cards do and how to follow/stop your opponent's "endless" turns. It's a more mentally demanding than the days of Pot of Greed and Trap Hole.


It was a big mistake for them to launch Master Duel without an alternative PvP format to help acclimate old fans. Plus the game's slow speed & animations make those long turns take five times longer than IRL (where better regulations have banned many of these combo decks). I'd encourage returning players not to be too scared off at first!


@Phantom_R I've actually gotten addicted to watching competitive Yu Gi Oh videos on Youtube, specifically JWittz and Duel Logs, over the last month! In short: don't understand it at all, don't really want to but still fascinating as all hell though (the card art is gorgeous as well, on every card I've seen).


I went through the most basic part of the tutorial (Summoning/Setting Monsters, Attacking, Traps and Spells), and was absolutely floored by how little that prepared me for the real. duel I immediately jumped into. This card game is dense when you account for all of the various methods of summoning monsters.


Yugioh is an extremely complicated game. I came back to the game in 2018 and I still get confused about the under the hood stuff sometimes. Konami's even given up on including a rule book in structure decks it's so long. I feel like learning by having a friend teach you is nearly mandatory. I'm not surprised Konami's failing in their tutorial


Anyways I'm totally smitten with Master Duel. I was pretty burned out on the game before but the format changes, fair free to play model, and quick matchmaking have me totally addicted. Ten dollars invested and my favorite deck is already at its most competitive.


I also love that Konami is taking steps to give Yugioh an identity outside of the anime. Anyone who was going to be drawn into the game from the anime is already here, I'm glad they're taking a new approach


How so you justify the fact that you CRAP ALL OVER every FTP game that allows you to use real world money to gain a competitive advantage, to the point where you give some games 5/6 ratings even though you say they are fantastic JUST because they let you do that, while this game gets a 7 despite "paying money to get a competitive advantage" being the CORE GAMEPLAY MECHANIC?


Imagine being a publisher and being so devoid of scruples that you would shamelessly releasing a game in such a poor state - so poor, in fact, that they felt that it necessary to include a crash warning at boot-up.


I get that it's free-to-play, but I don't think that justifies releasing a game that is guaranteed to crash. And if that would be the publisher's defense, then - imo - it's not a very good one. It's embarrassing.


Since they definitely know about the problem, it be true that the game really will run better in time, though their "we're looking into it" part of the warning message doesn't exactly inspire much in the way of confidence.


I am a bit of a fan of some Yu-gi-oh video games. Particularly the DS games and the Switch release of Legacy (which I 100%'d). This game seemed to be okay for a free to play version. However, as you are indicating, the dev may get stingier later on in the game's lifespan and it's performance is poor. Mine has crashed already once when I was in an advantageous position with a strategy going. That's actually soul-destroying when playing a Yu-gi-oh video game.


I dunno, online multiplayer card games...I always had a terrible time with them. I could never tell if someone was hacking or what...and they would always throw the most powerful cards at me all at once.


Anyways, I only know like...the first generation or two of the Yugioh cards. After that I stopped playing it a long time ago, so I know nothing about all these new types. I started playing Legacy again, though...so maybe after that and I figure out how the new stuff works, then maybe I'll try this game.


I don't play yugioh online after I dueled someone who had a "stalling" deck that plays Final Countdown, so the entire duel was just me trying to do just one thing and failing over and over, that's no fun.


I prefer the games with a story, I've been playing Nightmare Troubadour, it's quite fun and the cards are easy to understand since it's the same ones you see from the anime.

Duel Transer is also quite good, dueling is a bit slow, but you get used to it and has a great amount of cards from (arguably) the best eras of yugioh. You can still play online, with a friend at least, using the wiimmfi server.


@Quarth Sorry - I just meant as you were in terms of it being a Konami game. That explains the quality although still really bad that a simple game can look and perform so bad. There is a lot of laziness coming in with some Switch games now.


That's way too many summoning gimmicks for my likening. Yes, I started having a bit more fun when I created an updated version of my deck from the Duel Monsters era (Magicians) but same criticism always happens, people take 10 mins to summon and summon and summon new monsters through monster effects and suffer no real consequences like reduced LP and still have a full hand after summoning an army or something with 5000+ attack. And this is only their first turn.


I get the summoning gimmicks, I just think they break the game and making it boring. Time was you at least had a fighting chance to win against a strong deck, now you get shot in the chest if you try.


For pro players this is perfect, its really not made for casuals fans at all so i think those finding it hard well tough luck. I'm pretty shocked i was able to complete my Hero deck without spending a penny though, while the free gems do dry up they do give you enough to make any deck of your choice.


I've been playing on PC and it's fine but the UI is not very responsive and the single player content is terrible. For a free to play game it's top notch though, literally the best card game in the market in my opinion. Even without paying a dime you are going to have a lot of enjoyment here if you like YGO. Even getting very good cards is quite easy.
