Yu-Gi-Oh!: Master Duel

The "try anything before hitting an UR" list again I see...

They won't hit cards they are still actively selling, otherwise they would have hit them before they hit the shop. That said, Scarecrow being unscathed is hilarious.

Also it seems we have an Eldlich Solo mode now. Just in time for the fancy alt art version!

Snake-Eye killing everything? Better hit Branded and Superheavy Samurai.

Circular isn't new but they're still hitting Parallel Exceed over touching it.

SHS does need to end up in a shallow grave...

Thought about spicing this thread up a bit: does anyone have any MD related series that you enjoy watching? For me Ive been having a great time watching the Master Saga series season 5 with Dzeeff and friends, as well as stuff like Dueltaining from MBT

Rules are explained at the start of both videos but for descriptions sake: Master Saga is a series where each week Dzeef and his cohosts all open 10 master packs, and then from those packs, opening up 10 secret packs of the ones they unlock from those pulls. You keep all the cards you collect so your possible deck collection grows week by week. 2-0 gets a gauranteed UR craft on their next weeks secret pack, 1-1 gets an SR, and 0-2 gets 2 rare crafts.

For Dueltaining, MBT challenges people to make decks and fight him in a duel, but if he manages to laugh at your set up, he instantly loses. It invites some hilarious strategies (like someone literally stream sniping him with or resolving sumo dice games) and is my go to if i need a solod chuckle myself.

Cimo carrying the Yugitubing scene yet again with his Masochist series. Only use the bare minimum of master packs at the start. Get 1 master pack plus legacy packs whenever you win. Been seeing a lot of these pop up. Probably helps that it can be done solo. If I didn't have to switch accounts I might've considered doing it myself.

Game updated as of yesterday

Major things of note:

• A small campaign based on the 25th anniversary animation video. If you input a certain code you get a special icon and sleeve based on the the Abyss/Branded lore
• Tearlaments finally get a secret pack, sharing it with Mermails
• New Secret pack, featuring the RDA support from the structure dack, the Earthbound Prisnor/Servant cards from Arc-V, and the Tistina TCG exclusive archtype. Oh, and a little trap called Transaction Rollback that makes labrynth player go wild.
• Behemoth King of a Hundred Battles, Magician of Faithfulness, andUltimeat Offering are all added in legacy packs.
• RDA wallpaper
• Tearlament sleeves

New banlist update effective April 11

Going down:

• Limited:
  • Performapal Five-Rainbow Magician
• Semi-Limited:
  • Superheavy Samurai Wagon
  • Nadir Servant
  • Kashtira Unicorn

Going up:

• Semi-Limited:
  • Kashtira Birth
• Unlimited:
  • Armageddon Knight
  • Purrely Pretty Memory

I just joined Master Duel like a month and a half ago, and have been liking how some cards not banned in the format have affected my original decks.

I just tested in solo mode, and Jigabyte does not miss the timing if destroyed by Clear New World in Master Duel, despite having a "when" effect. If you try to activate the negated effect of the monster that Clear New World summons, Jigabyte still doesn't miss the timing. Am I misunderstanding how missing the timing works?

Another do nothing list, Rainbow was only played at one, no hits to the statues, Pachy, or Jowgen...well, at least my Kash Gate Guardian deck didn't get hit crippled by Snake-Eues using Kash cards so that's something I guess.

Big Update tpday, aka "oh thats why snake eyes werent hit"

• Blazing Arena pack brings in the Fire Duelist support in Volcanics, Battlin Boxers, and...armored xyz? Okay....as well as Bonfire at UR!

• 25th anniversary bundles for the unity magicians and the pride dragon, as well as wallpapers for both

• sleeve protectors for all the poll winners (Sera, Diabellestar, Dark Magician Girl)

• wallpaper for Promethean Princess

Also there's a supposed leak of the next Duel Trial event.

Nibiru Trial. Players start with a free copy of Nibiru in their hand.

A new Solo Mode Gate was just released for X-Saber. Here's hoping we get more Ice Barrier stuff soon!

a slew of new content coming soon!

• New Selection pack introduces Illusion types into the game at long last, along with Evol- and Altergeist support.

• THREE new secret packs, each correlating to Amazing Defenders, and all of them receiving their extra support. R-Ace is teaming up with Machina, Purrely with Meffly, and Mikanko with...Guardian....bleugh

About time the purrely got their extra stuff. With the way they hit them with the lists I thought theyd never get their due. R-ACE is going to be at full power and Mikanko will probably reflect damage even harder. Oh and illusion Branded is going to be a thing, I was really fond of that strat.

Another Update for the month

Things of note:

• Ash Blossom Icon and frame, as well as a Cardian sleeves
• More Master Duel Proficiency Tests, grade 11-15
• A new Try Out Duel where both players start with Skill Drain face up on the field.
• A new Floowandereeze/Simorgh secret pack (finally!)
• A new Umi and Nasch support secret pack, based on the Water Legendary Duelist support.

Also since no one posted about either of these, i will add them: There is a new Banlist going into effect on the 30th, as well as an event going on right now

Forbidden:

• No changes

Limited:

• Superheavy Samurai Soul Piercer

Semi-Limited: Snake-Eye Ash WANTED: Seeker of Sinful Spoils.

The Yugioh event is a faction style event where there are 3 separate banlists based on the groups you choose: Fusion, Xyz, or Synchro. Choosing one locks your extra deck from playing the others, obviously, but you can swap between groups at any time.

Snake-Eye is dead. Long live Labrynth and Rescue-Ace.

This might be a good excuse for me to drop Snake-Eye since it feels like I'm constantly getting sacked by every handtrap. Kind of want to go back to Tear since I had fun with it in the event, and it usually plays into the roach better.

Kind of surprised by how well a 60 card pile of Branded Thunder Dragon is working out. Not the best but there's something so incredibly satisfying about just normal summoning Cartesia in response to Maxx C being dropped immediately and then going into Colossus on their turn in response to a search to force a -2.

A nothing hit for Snake-Eyes that should've been the state they released in.

I don't have Cartesia, but I was also crushing it with Thunder Dragon/Branded. Now to come up with a deck for the Skill Drain one, and to streamline my Harpie deck for the XYZ part of the triangle.

HEROes are also really good in the current meta with their recent support, but HEROes have always been a pretty good rogue deck for the past decade or so.

Konami really needs to just kill all the Stun cards already. So fucking sick of running into the degenerate bullshit of Pachy plus Golgonda making it impossible to out unless you get a spell or trap that doesn't destroy. While they get to run Super Poly for going second.
