* TheyChangedItNowItSucks: The aggressive amount of PowerCreep in the game's later years has turned away some players who originally got into ''Duel Links'' because they were sick of how swingy Master Duels felt with its power level, only for ''Duel Links'' to eventually turn into "Master Duels Lite" with the introduction of modern cards/archetypes and poorly balanced Skills.

** The Paradox Brothers' skill Elements Unite allows you to start with the necessary setup to summon the 3750-ATK Gate Guardian on turn 1, at the cost of not having a hand and being reduced to 500 LP. The skill is next to useless in PVP but extremely useful in PVE, allowing the Brothers to easily defeat every opponent without monster removal or effect damage in their decks, as no CPU-controlled opponent has a monster over 3300 ATK without specific equip cards.

** The four/five victory streak needed to progress to the highest ranks in PVP, Platinum, Legend and King of Games. You need to be lucky enough to not get paired up against a deck that outright counters yours, get a good starting hand in each duel, and don't get screwed by the exploit-abusing duelists. While the Platinum ranks are more lenient with the requirement, for the Legend ranks you need a five win streak to climb to the next rank ''and'' there are three levels in Legend. The worst part? If you get a three loss streak ''you drop a rank''. The requirements have since been eased a bit.

** Another problem players have is the abundance of bots (CPU-controlled duelists in PvP mode), duelists who use decks with many powerful cards and more often than not have perfect answers to your every move. A lot of their decks include cards like Watt and Trickstar monsters that can attack you directly, three copies of traps like Floodgate Trap Hole and Paleozoic Canadia, and Golden Castle of Stromberg. There's no end to the number of bots in Casual Duels, although these days they also run rampant in PvP events too, which has the potential to ruin high win streaks if you can't defend yourself.
