What staple cards do you think will most frustrate people getting into the new LotD the most? I've honestly been out of the games for years (I think the last time I did anything was a few YGOpro duels in the early Vrains era) but I can still see shit like kaiju or sphere mode being incredibly annoying to players who have been gone for ages because people won't realize how fucking annoying cards that allow you to tribute an opponent's cards can be

Hello guys, I am getting ready to get back to the TCG, but all I am doing is saving money for now. I am probably waiting for the new banlist before I decide what to buy. Just wondering what new decks could be up to my alley if my fav decks are:

Six Sam
Shiranui
World chalice
Thanks!

I haven't really kept up with the TCG or series since the original duel monsters, but seeing this thread reminded me that I have a collection of old cards back at my parents house somewhere. I had built myself a water themed deck with Legendary Fisherman back when the show originally came to the US.

I'm going to buy the Switch release of Legacy of the Duelist though. First time I'll have bought a Yu-Gi-Oh game since the GBA days.

...I just found out Hiita, the Fire Charmer Ablaze is a thing. Is that actually at all usable, or not really? And do we have the other ones/does it look likely we'll get them? Remember loving the original charmers, even if they sucked.

Ooh, nice! I do have to say, I really appreciate that whenever I check in on Yugioh it feels like they're throwing some stuff to old cards I wouldn't expect.

Man I hope the short prints don't kill Duel Power for me. Konami had been doing good this year with reprints, but what I've been hearing about the new set is a bummer. I want to pick up Evenly and Ogre.

Bought a whole box of Arena of Souls. Got a couple ok cards, still wish I could just use the ones I got, but a Ultra SD Michizuri is pretty cool

Anyone have starting tips for duel links?
Full disclaimer I'm not an expert at the game.
Decide first what sort of deck you want run.
Look up the cards you want to see if they're available through boxes, ranked tickets, character rewards/drops, or event exclusives.
If the box you're pulling from contains only one copy of the card you want: it might be a good idea to reset it right after you get it to conserve gems.
Stage level ups refill the Duel Word with NPCs to duel so don't wast duel orbs on that.
Duel Trails has a fair bit of reward gems for completing them.
The four areas of the Duel Word have spots you can click on for a random chance at getting gems. The fountain at the Gate, Lights at the Arena, top of the Shop, and the garbage can at the Card Studio.

Thanks for the recommendations on the speed deck. A lot of familiar cards and has satisfied some of my nostalgia. I motivated to look for my cards more.

Of course, the final battle of this arc will be Playmaker versus Bohman part 4. What happened to Revolver because I doubt he going to lose against Lightning.

Anyone else interested in legacy of the duelist switch? Burned out on duel links due to the mobile heated elements and the fact the story looks fun plus having an actual sealed/draft mode really appeals to me

I need this.

FB_IMG_1555028136788.jpg


Each tin will come with 5 Prismatic Secret Rare variant cards:

●2 cards (from a set of 6 new cards) with art by Kazuki Takahashi, the creator of Yu-Gi-Oh!
●2 cards (from a set of 5 cards) from the original Yu-Gi-Oh! animated series, which includes the 3 Egyptian God Cards with art by Kazuki Takahashi.
●1 of 3 new World Premiere cards designed to be usable in any Deck, and help you stage a comeback against some of the fastest strategies that might come from your opponent. One card prevents Graveyard dumping, another punishes your opponent if they Summoned too many monsters, and the third gives you a reprieve if they set up a monstrously large field on their first turn.
● In addition, each tin has 3 Mega-Packs of a specially crafted set featuring popular cards released in 2018, like Danger!? Tsuchinoko!?, Knightmare Mermaid, and Called by the Grave. Each 16-card Mega-Pack has 12 Commons,1 Rare, 1 Super Rare, 1 Ultra Rare, and 1 Prismatic Secret Rare. All of the foil cards in these Mega-Packs appear in different rarities than their original 2018 release, adding a further element of mystery and excitement to the 2019 Gold Sarcophagus Tin!

Picked up that new structure, it's so good! I want to try building an arcanite assault mode deck again with it... might need to pick up another two

I actually like this list quite a bit, minus the Kagari hit.

I would have preferred more of the spells to be limited and Kagari semi-limited. You really can't use Strikers in any other deck now.

Summon Sorcerer absolutely needed to go. Now maybe we'll get Needlefiber, though, it was smart of the TCG not to let both run around together.

Phantom Knights Rank-Up was seriously annoying, especially with Orcust looming over us. Plus now we didn't have any other unnecessary PK casualties.

Lady Debug was a Type searcher so I'm glad that was dealt with sooner than later.

RIP Dark Mater Dragon, you banish as cost and where involved in an upcoming FTK.

Phantom Skyblaster is almost funny. Still hard to believe several of Jesse's cards are now on the list.

Super Poly = wow.

Ugh I just bought a playset of Lady Debug too. And Cynet Mining is secret rare.... Maybe I'll just buy a playset of Flame Bufferlo in the meantime. And now I can dredge up my Lost World Dino deck again. Best structure deck of all time.

Given that Link Evo will have newer cards than we though, I wonder if it'll get to salamangreats. I've been playing Thunder Dragons on YGOPRO recently and that's probably the decks I hate dealing with the most. I can win occasionally, but it's just so hard to break the Salamangreat's board effectively
