I like playing digital Yugioh more than in person because there’s no rule arguments & less misplays.
i agree. I am also shy
The banlist though.
@@mrbubbles6468 Oh I have no problems with it. I have full power tri-brigade
Less misplays? *cries in summoning Lancelot but forgot it’s a mandatory activation to negate anything so you negate yourself*
I definitely didn’t do that
IRL yugioh is only fun if you have friends that you can talk about
I stepped away from Yu-Gi-Oh! When my wife and I started having kids. I still have decks but it’s been difficult to get away for about 10 years. Master Duel has given me another chance to play the game.
Amazing story mate (:
I'm in the exact same position man, I wound up having to sell a lot of my decks to help pay bills years ago during hard times but I'm slowly building them back. With 3 kids it's hard to get away to the local card shop so MD has really been a way to get back in and unwind after everyone is sleep, lol.
I'm in a similar boat, just time and other commitments have made it impossible to playing the psychial game anymore. I have work, do writing and acting as well as doing my own youtube videos and weekly live streams so yeah just simply don't have the time to go to locals anymore.
Let me have your cards 😭 I'm poor
Ok yugi boomer
I'm doing Master Duel only for a few reasons:
1. Cost for entry. I haven't spent a penny on Master Duel, and as a casual player that is perfectly okay with me since I'm not trying to go straight to Platinum. I don't feel pressure to craft the staples as soon as possible to be competitive.
2. I'm super forgetful when there's a lot going on at once. Sometimes I literally forget a secondary effect of a card I play in every duel. The automatic simulator aspect of the game is really helpful for me to keep track of what I've done and what I can do, in a way that real-life Yugioh can't compare with.
3. It satisfies my itch to open packs without having to spend money. We all know it's cheaper to buy singles when building decks, but I love opening packs just as much. When I was first getting back into Yugioh in mid-2020 I bought a box of PHRA just to open packs again but I know that's not financially feasible for me to do every time a set comes out.
As a totally new Yugioh player, Master Duel is far less intimidating than paper. It starts you off from knowing nothing about how to play to actually winning games. On the downside, all the handholding could be a liability in paper!
As someone who got back into the TCG through Master Duel, it definitely is. You often forget your own effects because you never need to remember them in Master Duel.
I'm a little surprised Konami hasn't figured out a unique serial code when you buy a physical pack to throw it in Master Duel to get a 'free pack' alongside it. I'm kind of hoping they do, as I do like to get the occasional booster box just for collecting physical cards.
Yeah, Pokemon was way ahead of every other TCG with this idea. Konami needs to do some catching up.
Yeah, it can definitely happen since the used to use the codes on the physical cards to get that one card in the game.
Would be dope and give more incentive (if there’s isn’t enough already) to buy physical cards more often , especially tins, boxes, etc
Not sure if anyone remembers the Chaotic TCG and show but each card have a unique ID you can enter on a digital platform for the online client, really liked that
Aside from being able to duel against my friends who don't live nearby, Master Duel is actually helping me to learn different decks, and it's also helping me learn some things about my own Decks that I either keep missing or simply forgetting in the actual card game.
That said, I still enjoy the human interaction of the physical card game
don't forget one other caveat: If you're gonna play ranked, you better strap yourselves with a meta deck. (Because thats what I keep seeing)
The sound on this video is extremely low
I’m kinda hoping master duel does for yugioh what MTGA arena did for magic. I’ve seen a lot of my friends dive hard into master duel this last week so I’m hoping it reinvigorates old players to return and help new players to intergrate
The biggest advantage of Master Duel for me is:
1st it being a Sim created by Konami the cards should work as intended, which can sometimes be doubted in other sims when interactions are unclear.
2nd and far more important: I'm able to play and train against actual Meta Decks, Master Duel/OCG Meta but still a lot of this will transfer into real life yu-gi-oh once I'm able to go to locals. My closest local is like 2hours of train travel away from my home so my practice in yu-gi-oh for the past 4 years has been like 5 games in which I just got destroyed cause I didn't know what any of the decks are doing. And other Sims not realy motivating me to play them.
(ranked games feeing meaningless cause there might never be a seriously taken competitive scene, idk if ranked 1 dueling books holds much of a meaning even though I know that yu-gi-oh player say it's the closest thing to irl yu-gi-oh cause timing can be missed and no pop ups etc.)
In Master DUels I face a variety of Decks and can passivly learn from those duels. Sure in the TCG we don't have 3x Maxx C but it would be exchanged with any other meta hand trap not changeing too much when it comes to deck building or just the experience. The Combo lines will still be similar the main difference will be the timeing of disruptions.
i disagree dueling book exists
@@Jammermt99 I already mentioned my feelings about DB, it's the closest Thing we can get to playing Yu-Gi-Oh irl beside remote duels.
But: it isn't an official Simulator + I never heard of an relevant E-Sport Scene for DB. So being a high Rank lvl in DB might be meaningless (when you think about making Yu-Gi-Oh into any Form of career)
While master duel had the Hope for me to become an mention worthy E-Sport Titel supported by konami.
Not for me but the ones who are actualy good in the Game and Hope for a big Tournament Scene.
+ Sure Reading the cards explains the Card but I've Seen so many more experienced Player messing Up the Rules of the cards that I strongly believe that DB might not be the best place to start out learning Yu-Gi-Oh. Something master duel is.
@@anblueboot5364 I gotta disagree with your master duel take there mate master duel isnt really a good sim both to play and to learn on. The only thing going for it is that konami supports it. Nexus doesnt have konami support but, its still a better sim despite its flaws. Mainly due to the fact its cards are free and its browser based, also db isnt really there for tournament purposes you go there to practice and casual matches. If you wanna do a tournament its best you get some irl cards because i dont forsee konami doing very many online tournaments other than remotes due to the fact their main product is the actual game.
When me and my friends get together to duel we generally like to play while smoking weed but obviously that’s not ideal considering the fact that you have to pay attention to chains and timing effects..master dual has the edge in that regard.
i love physical duel !! i can talk to my opponent/ meet new people and the experience of the draw ( drawing cards) compare to computer drawing cards for you
Exactly why I prefer it too. Also holding them in your hands and flipping them around is so much fun
Let's duel together irl !
Same here I be playing on Skype and on discord
@@latexamy I know !!! details like this make the game Fun !!
@@YohananYGO we should !! i run a DM deck 🙏🏻
As someone who lives where there is little to no one playing Yugioh and the closest place that holds locals for it being almost 4 hours away. Master Duel is what I play when I want to play Yugioh with either internet friends or just because I have free time. The barrier to entry is amazing(I'm a F2P player and have 3 decks that I love playing) with it requiring no money to be spent at all as long as you continue to just play the game. Continue practicing with your deck and learning along the way. Do I wish I could play irl? Yes, I would love nothing more than to play irl, but at the moment that's not likely and probably won't be for a long while. Master Duel has given me a way to play the game, enjoy it, learn it, and overall just have fun with it. I've learned more by playing first hand than I have in the last 5 years of me playing the game on and off with friends
U live in south Dakota?
Master duel is stinking awesome It helped me finally figure out how chaining works as well as helping me figure out how my favorite deck dragunitys is able to stack up against the meta and so far it's been doing really well
I feel like Master Duel is the perfect resource to get better at the TCG. I’ve been spending pretty much all of my time exploring and learning decks that I normally wouldn’t be interested in, or decks that I couldn’t really afford to build currently and want to build in the future.
I’ve also learned how certain effect chains work, when/if cards can miss timing, and just general rulings that used to confuse the hell out of me.
At the end of the day I 100% prefer dueling in person, but MD is such a great resource to learn more about the game.
As much as i love master duel i just see it as practice. Tcg is much more engaging and difficult so it keeps my interest. Tcg is more frustrating but more rewarding. Master duel is still the best ygo sim for anyone not interested in live play and recommend it to anyone trying to get back into ygo.
Never been able to actually go to a real physical duel anything lol.
Got into yugioh during the height of the pandemic.
I also didnt have the money to get all the expensive pro level cards to make my real life decks super strong.
With Master Duel I built all my favorite decks into competitive level decks and now I win with Melffys against other players because of Master duel.
It has saved my love for yugioh.
Don't have the problem to get my fun decjs but yes, never played in real life either, expcet with friends of course, so yeah its quit fun.
I do wish master duel had a chat function or something, because when I absolutely curb stomp a beginner, I feel horrible and wish I could give advice on what to do differently or on how to play better, plus just being able to talk to my opponent, whether through voice chat or text, would be much more fun
I always wonder if they understand my Traptrix board or they just think the game is broken.
@@SuperShadowKin lol. I've never run traptrix, so i know nothing about it
@@kennethconnor4755 The cards are unaffected by Trap Cards, but never seems to stop my opponent from trying to Impermanence my Sera. Also Rafflisia protects my traptrix cards from being targeted but only protects OTHER traptrix cards from bring destroyed by battle or card effects. Stop attack my Sera just because it has low attack points. It's not going anywhere unless you deal with Rafflisia first.
@@SuperShadowKin Oh wow. That sounds like a pain to play against.
Coming from Hearthstone, the chat is only there for toxic people. Like even the emote is annoying enough that I just rather Squelch them.
The strangest thing I've experienced in master duel is my friend who hated the Yu-Gi-Oh anime has been playing this game and really enjoying it so he wants to play in real life and give the anime a try
As someone that played religiously up until the release of Labirynth of Nightmare, I can't even begin to imagine playing physical Yugioh due to the absurd amount of text and multiple effects that cards have nowadays. Since I've been out for so long I'd either have to read the essay on every one of my opponent's cards each time they play a card that chains onto a shitton of summons and effects OR just trust them and hope they're not cheating when making any moves. I played Legacy of the duelist and it was a mindfuck how much the game had changed but it's nice that the game keeps tracks of everything for you. I've been having a blast with masterduel so far even if I lose more than half the time
You would be surprised how easy it is to cheat when your opponent doesn't know your cards. Even in reverse of your situation. If you play a rouge deck. Even an experienced player doesn't have every card memorised and can still miss read a cards effect.
That also opens arguments like when I try to explain to people that Aromaserphy Jasmine only has a hard once per turn on its special summon effect and its search effect is a soft once per turn.
Master Duel is severely lacking when it comes to casual play. Unless you have a private group with friends where everyone collectively agrees to play non-meta the only PvP Master Duel has is Ranked full of meta decks.
I don't know why you people keep screaming for a casual mode? it's useless if nothing is restricted. People who love to curbstomp will go there regardless if it gives rewards or not.
I play both. Physical yugioh I just got back into so I don’t really know all the dynamics but I play it a bit. But it’s more of collections for me. Master Duel allows me to learn at my own speed and really understand decks. I don’t care if I win or lose yet in master duel. I’m just trying to learn
On your statement about “more reps” while correct that Master Duel allows you to compete against multiple people in a consistent manner. You have to also factor that Master duel is a best of 1. While irl is best of 3. For your 40 mins of irl play is a possible 3 games. Same could be said for 3 one of games in Master Duel.
It's the perfect yugioh game for streaming etc. Ironically master duel has gotten me back into paper yugioh.
🔥 video fam
For those people that like to build multiple decks and don't want to buy multiple playset of staples, having the same sleeves for all of your decks helps a ton
i love both and there's advantages to both. That being said, actually owning the cards and playing them, feeling them in your hands, shuffling, and just playing the game is just a straight better experience
Last time i played yugioh physically was lunch time around 2008 in high school so very happy to have master duel around, me and some of mg high school buddies have started llaying again.
Hey Paul and the rest of Team APS. My situation is interesting. I much prefer physical cards because of the social interactions, being able to handle the cards, and feeling like I actually own the cards like you mentiones. Unfortunately though, I can't really buy cards and I also don't know many local people that collect or play the game so playing digitally is my best option.
I would like to add that the prompts, while they can be annoying and give away information, are very helpful to me as a returning player in knowing when I can or cannot respond to things and have a better understanding of the game.
I played religiously when I was 9 to 11 years old back when it first came out.
I'm 29 now and Duel Masters is probably the most accessible to me. *I just got back into it and trying to build an actual blue eyes deck (I hope they'd expand their program to have Character A.I so I can duel the shows heroes.)
My biggest gripe of Yu Gi Oh is how people don't play it for fun... they have as many copies and duplicates of powerful cards as possible..
This game has over 6,000 cards already and yet we may only use less than 5% of it.
I probably won't do well in rank since I only build "fun" decks. (Decks without duplicates and is multi purpose.)
i'm from a country where locals isn't just a thing. Through Master Duel I finally being able to reconnect with old yugioh friends, join few communities, and even go to online tournaments
I'm really happy for people who reunited with their childhood hobby, but as a life long Yugioh player, Master Duel will remain a game that I play once in a while and that's it. I don't think any video game could ever give rise to the same emulation as the good old card game.
Plus I think we can all agree that the social aspect of physical Yugioh is its most important aspect. And no simulator could ever recreate that.
I haven't played this game in 17Yrs and was in shock on how this game has changed when I came across MD by accident on my PS...to answer your question MD seems better for returning and new players that are curious about the game without spending money because of the generosity of the crystals in beginning
as someone whos thinking of getting into phyiscal yugioh, ive played yugioh online off and on over the years, i'd be very excited to have different rarities of my favorite cards. on master duel right now im playing slifer with a face knight engine. even spluring a little on a pharaonic slifer as my boss monster is so enticing, or having cracked rarities of kings/queens/jacks knight to me is bad ass
I love playing with the physical cards!!
Playing Master Duel has been my first experience really learning to play Yu-gi-oh to an extent where I can understand it and was able to hit platinum very easily. I was able to build an almost optimal Zoodiac Tribrigade deck and have had a ton of fun learning the game, and am interested in trying paper out. My real questions about this are about the meta, mostly in how quickly does it change. I would love to play paper and buy a deck to learn, but I'm a bit concerned my deck would be useless quickly.
Ever since MD released, I'm only playing competitive in it. Still getting the cards, but in a more relaxed way and just for fun playing with my friends.
i feel like if your new you should play more master duel. then you get into physical yu-gi-oh if you want. because for me I don't have most things to play physical yu-gi-oh, and master duel all i need is my ps4
I played Yugioh way back in the early 2000s. I stepped away for other card games and played some Duel Links every now and again recently, but ultimately left Duel Links due to their monetization system and it costing too much to keep up.
Master Duel has been a breath of fresh air for me and makes me want to, once the pandemic is over, possibly buy a physical deck and play at a local card shop. I'd want to play both when/if possible, but for now - Master Duel is perfect for someone like me.
I love Master Duel because my locals for real duels are too far away and the cost of entry for tournaments is a bit much. Also my state is back on lockdown and everything is closed now
Simulators help with things like specific rulings that you just kinda have to know and things like missing the timing ( fun fact if an effect dosen't activate because it missed timing in master duel it will actually tell you that it missed timing instead of just not doing the effect and not telling you why)
The thing I don't like about playing on Master Duel is that I seem to brick more than IRL, like my opening hand seems to have more of my 1 of cards compared to the cards I am running at 3. My one of cards normally are meant to be drawn later and not right away which hinders my able to start playing the actual deck if I open with them.
Master Duel advantages:
+You can play for free.
+With time and patience you can make a decent amount of powerful decks, for free.
+You can play with many players, really fast.
+There is no arguing about the rules or specific plays since everything is handled automatically, and if it isn't possible, you can't do it.
+if your opponent had a better deck, you can copy it.
+Being able to copy, dismantle and get cards makes deck building extremely easy.
Real life yu-gi-oh advantages:
+You own the cards physically.
......
.......
...........
I'm sorry but if the only advantage i get from playing the real life version is having the cards physically, and i have to literaly choose between having a ps5 or like 3 cards for the same price?, you are out of your MIND if you think this is worth it in any way or that it "evens out", one version, people can play, and the other, you have to actively choose between getting a few cards, or paying rent, how is this even a discussion.
Nothing will ever be able to replace cards people love them they love them so much
Haven't played the physical game in like a decade so I'm fine with just sticking to Master Duel tbh. Especially in these covidtastic times
i started back with MD and it tought me stuff about the irl game and now im going to locals and i think locals is jus more refreshing and rewarding because you put real effert to have fun with your near buy duelist
You make some really good points for both and as one that enjoys playing both I can see your point. Personally physical Yu-Gi-Oh does mean more to me but with everything going on with covid digital Yu-Gi-Oh has helped me pass the time with friends who also play the digital form of it.
I loved Yugioh as a kid, both the anime and the card game I played with my sister all the time, but I sorta just fell out of it as a grew up. Master Duel has been nice as a free way to see if I still like the game without investing a lot in physical cards. I still don't know if I would want to invest in the physical game at this point, but in the mean time Master Duel has been a nice way to get back up to speed as a returning player since the game has changed so so much since when I fell out around the start of the Synchro era.
they need monthly gimmick formats/themes/win conditions/custom rules
like generations, theres 7 of them, gx, vrains,
1 copy of cards only
single theme decks
generic theme decks, like warriors or fish
or boss monster, you have to win with a random monster
or random win condition, like burn for life points, deckout, exodia,
I value physical yugioh more because its the only time I get to see my yugioh friends but master duel is cool
I like the physical card game because it gave me a way to talk to people about something I like because I have social anxiety but I got covid last year and it's been hard to get to the shop to play so it's been great having master duel to at least have a way of playing the game till I can start going back
I really enjoy Master Duel. It got me back into modern yugioh and is great at seeing a lot of the different decks available. I can build strongs deck for cheap and share staples easily. Run super smooth, haven't had too many issues of rulings/game crashes/etc.
That being said there are few things I think hold it back. Some of these workable with future updates but some aren't due to the digital nature.
A lack of unranked playlists makes experimenting harder imo. I don't think it would be all sunshine and roses if they had an unranked option available, but it would at least incentivize ppl to play more without fear of losing rank. Just more ways to play besides just BO1 ranked will always be good imo. But this can be worked around in the future.
In a competitive setting its hard to BO1 and the digital interface seriously. BO1 skews a lot of MUs and field. I'm playing Eldlich and its free wins due to how little answers ppl can run without also hindering their gameplan or just running dead cards against other MUs. But BO3 can be added later.
The biggest thing for me is the lack of bluffing/mental game. Due to the game constantly giving you the opportunity to respond to everything. It makes it a lot easier to read backrow/handtraps.
Hmmm I normal summoned a monster and before the on summon effect could even trigger my opponnent gets a response? Solemn Judgment bet.
I drew a card and the opponent has a response window? Maxx C. etc.
etc.
It makes it harder for the opponent/player to conceal their options and disrupt at an opportune time.
But I think that's just the nature of the system. Its not the end of the world for me, i still enjoy it a lot. But its something I think will always be a hindrance.
I'm avoiding the hell out of it. I'm living the retired life when it comes to competitive play, just happy sticking with casual and enjoying coming up with challenges with one or two of my friends.
It isn't just physical vs digital. I have a weak immune system, so going to in-person events is not on the table for me with the current pandemic somehow still running rampant... so Master Duel is keeping me from going insane. That being said, Master Duel allows me to make decks of cards I don't own physical copies of, and to see if I would want to get them in the future. Dragon maids for instance. I think the only physical Dragon Maid card I've ever owned was Nurse Dragon maid. Was able to make an entire Dragon Maid deck for free with master Duel. Extremely easy to play, and now I know I would not enjoy playing it regularly. Also did it with Dogmatika and Tri-Brigade as well, and I found out I really like Tri-Brigade. The deck feels cool to play, not just in how they work together, but the art as well. It actually feels like a fantasy brigade you can imagine actually having their own anime.
Btw I also appreciate simulators like Yu Gi Oh Pro. Independent programmer. It keeps cards up to date and uncensored!!
I been playing that the past week to fine tune my pure Blue Eyes theme deck.
i think physical yugioh is great for starting out to feel out the community and it's ethics, but the more time you have with it and as you get busier in your life, you lean to simulation. You just don't have time to go through the hassles, you need to get back to your responsibilities, your basic needs, your social life, loved ones, all that. You get to a point where you just want to play some quick rounds and go on to other things.
idk i never had a problem, my wife support my hobbies and will watch the kids while i go play some irl yugioh on Wednesdays n Sundays. i know lot alot of people Dont have the luxury like they might be working late or sum like that but eh i jus try to make time for stuff i enjoy to keep me happy in life ya know. Life Sucks Man. ;/
I choose both!!, before the release of master duel, grass roots sims was the only way to clarify card rulings and/or a complex game state
DM still has to grow a lot before I would play it on a daily basis. I stopped playing it after reaching my deck's limit on Ranking and I finished the solo mode so there really isn't anything more to do for me, so I'm hoping for more content soon!🤞 but it won't ever replace the real life experience it's just a fun extension if you don't feel like going to locals.
I pick both because I like Yu-Gi-Oh battle and master duel online is cool and they both are cool 😎
I like both to be honest playing with people and collecting the card for online mostly to test decks I want to play in real life
I enjoy playing Master Duel, but I do wish they would properly implement the correct TCG Ban List - or even give players a choice between OCG and TCG Ban Lists with separate ranking ladders for each format.
The funny thing is some of the UR hard cards to get in Master Duel is only like dollar store material IRL but real life Yugioh seems tough esp for those of us who haven't played since like the Pharaoh's Servant/Magic Ruler days
Online is fun then real life. Its hard to get YuGiOh products and the prices are very high. I'm trying to build a good deck but I will end up losing.
Is there draft or sealed similar to mtg? The effect chaining stuff is kind of annoying on digital would love to make decks on the spot from boosters
Master Duel because I'm new and can't keep up with the meta right now. So having a solo mode where I can play with decks I think are neat and not have to worry about all the meta stuff right now is relieving
I do play both, though, I prefer physical Yugioh, for the nostalgia AMD the chance tti meet people. However, Master Duel is a way for me to play the game with people, without needing to get an uber to go to tournaments (which are a county over for me), and it gave me something to keep me from depression while I was quarantined recently with COVID. Nonetheless, I look forward to the day when I can easily go to tournaments again.
I’ve been really getting back into yugioh with master duel! But don’t have enough people to play with irl 😔
Master duels is still free for me, got my Cyber dragon, rose, and twins (still waiting for Sunny, Konami!) without spending a dime.
You don't need to spend money to get a deck good enough for platinum.
i did plat 2 with harpies...it jus feels too easy man it sucked the joy out of it just a bit. but i still think its fun, i still prefer paper
Where u guys been at I love u guys video
Hey Paul, what do you think about starting a yugioh podcast?
its a good place to learn how to play. but its currently not caught up to the current TCG ban list so its really not that fun atm having to deal with VFD and other stuff like that.
it won't ever use the TCG banlist.
Master Duel is fun, but there's a problem with its reward system. It works like this:
#1: Meta cards and off-meta cards cost the same. This is opposed to IRL cards, where you can get rogue options for nickels and dimes while meta cards cost $100.
#2: The best way to get gems is to win ranked duels and increase your rank.
This creates a reinforcing system where you either play the meta, or your revenue stream gets cut off. This leaves players with very few realistic options to go for in the game. You have to build the meta decks first, and then maybe you can build rogue and fun decks later.
You can build fun decks and enter the duel room with others that just want to have fun, but obviously if you want a high rank you should expect to have to play something that can combat high level players. Every competitive game works this way, if you want to play with the top you have to play like the top.
@@chance6754 I'm not talking about wanting to play in ranked. I'm talking about acquiring gems.
Metas are for betas
@@chance6754 that's not what's he saying, in other games you can pick a character/design/weapon that resonates with you and succeed because the power gap between everything is low, the devs often try their best to address the power discrepancy of their games , you have the chance to improve or demonstrate your skill using your chosen character even at any level of competitiveness.
Meanwhile in ygo, you either play a few top tier decks or you are out and not even allowed to play the game. There's no "skill" involved, at most you can try is building a rogue deck with a copious amount of anti-meta staples and even then your chance of winning is still mediorce when compared to top meta decks.
Bruh quit crying lol. Week into a new account and I made 1 deck to use to get 2 more complete decks. Wasn't hard, was free.
I would like to play yugioh irl but my local area isn't that big on card games.
One is free sir. That being said nothing will ever compare to sitting across from someone and experiencing the duel.
Where you get that hoodie !!
I’ve been playing yugioh since 2002. But I do have breaks in between. Personally prefer physical yugioh at my locals. It’s the wait in the mail for singles that drive me crazy. But online has its place I play it when it’s raining out or I don’t want to leave the house but I try to stay out of the house.
On 1 account I have pure hero
With my absolute zero and etc
Another I have for generic plays like synchro spam and xyz
I’m still learning how to swarm
I use the same type of sleeves so that i will only have to switch the most expensive cards between decks. Also i put two decks in one box when needed.
I’m really finding that mastering duels is good practice and it’s a good way for a new player to get into game. I’ve never really played any meta decks because I don’t find them fun but the game has definitely help me strategize my decks to be competitive. That being said if your a fan of the game you should definitely invest in real cards.
Ive only played RL Yugioh when I was a kid and back then, I didn't understand how to play. So I never really got into it. Something in my opinion that helps me with Master duel is it knows how to keep score for me. My whole life ive been terrible with numbers. So, if I saw something battle and take Life Points, I would be confused because I'd have to math out how many point I or my opponent lost. That would take away from the experience in my opinon. Plus not having to find what cards you want and being able to almost instantly access them through Master Duel is convient for especially since I have no money to get cards nor do I believe there are any ways to travel anywhere close by where I live to play RL Yugioh. Id love to play rl yugioh now knowing a lot more about the game today but Id still need to buy cards and build a deck.
love the hoodie
i kinda see a tourney where we play with digital cards. helps keeps cheaters at bay to a point, but its gonna a while before we get there.
I used to have a physical Abyss Actor deck and now a Sky Striker deck. I never played the physical card game because the only place where people meet are 2 hours away from home. Even if it was close, I don't think I can play with them anyway. I don't think I can without the automated resolution, chains, activation prompts and damage calculation. I'm just not that confident. That said, I like the cards, I buy them/the packs for them.
Only way to get better is to practice, having your hand held by simulators won’t help
My resolution for 2021 was to get back into the game and get out to a locals. There's nothing like playing with physical cards (esp on fancy cloth mats ;3)
Audio is too low. Thought it was just my playstation and monitor but I can't really hear you even with my phone maxed out too
I definitely like the real deal more, but as a returnee and adult now, sadly my life doesn't give me enough space, money nor time for real Yugioh, master duel gives me the chance to enjoy once again a game i loved so much as a kid, sadly, i really dislike s bit this era of Yugi, the hand traps and staples are discouraging and once again meta decks are what they are, meta, when I use my meta deck everything is good, but when I use the deck I really want to play as, it barely has a chance, plus at least I have like 3 decks that i really wanted in real life trough out the years but didn't had a chance for only about 80 bucks invested in gems, so that's nice but then again, i want more decks and I really feel it kind of heavy the spending, hope the RandN event give out enough gems, hehe.
If I didn’t mess up horribly with physical Yugioh (wanted a Tea Gardner-esqe fairy deck when I got back in Yugioh in late 2019), I wouldn’t be as seasoned as I am now with physical Yugioh and Master Duel.
I’m going to ride or die with Cubics, both in physical TCG (since Mystic Mine is legal and the deck needs it) and Master Duel (since Maxx C is legal and the deck needs it).
I like having jet synchron again.
If this were original GOAT format Yu-Gi-Oh (pre-2008/pre-ExtraDeck) I would say IRL duels are better, but the game can barely be played IRL with the 5+ minute turns, countless cards to read, unintentional illegal plays, players not knowing how chains work and resolve, players not knowing spell speed priority, etc. I'd say 90% of IRL players have no idea about missed timings within chain resolutions, which along with the aforementioned are all things the game won't let you get away with obviously.
In yugioh master duel I built a full fuctioning pk deck in 3 hours while using no money.
Well Paul….I gotta say…I’m more of a Master Duels person myself. I know some people will hate me for this reason! And that…is…Because I have another card game to spend my time and money in. Yugioh Master Duel makes it easier for me to craft! Build! And Obtain some of the newer Archetypes outside of the VRAINS era of booster sets.
Like Drytron for example: I wanted to build the deck as its main mechanic is awesome! And I can do physical Math well, however…at the time…They costed a lot of money, and I was at the point of giving up Yugioh for good and sell away all of my physical cards to get something out of giving up, but I didn’t.
I may have given up on playing the Physical card game for Yugioh, but It has always been…something close to my heart that shouldn’t be taken out of my life. Hell, With Master Duel, I don’t have to spend a bunch of money to make my decks better, Now! I can remake those decks and make them better.
I may get OTKS against me but Master Duels is fun, as I am back into Yugioh again through this Simulator. Will I go back to the physical game? Probably not, but….It is my personal choice whether I want to go back into the traditional Trading card game.
I made my favorite deck in master Duo for less than the price of one lightning storm
true but everyone else has it too...and even worse its so many meta decks youll be facing eldlich 50 times in a row...i do love master duel but i rather irl cards its more fun
The reason i play master duel because in my town nobody play yugioh lol i need to drive 2hours to the city to even play in local... so being able to play anywhere with MD is really important for me
Master Duel is cool but i was hyped for playing OCG & TCG. The game has a mixed Banlist which was fun at first but playing online is practice for me for playing in person. So i rather just play Omega at this point.
for anyone brand new I would like to add If it wasn’t for master dual highlighting what’s playable there’s a strong chance I never even realized there was an extra deck/alternate summons.
Master duel is a ridiculously good teaching tool
At this point I definitely prefer virtual yugioh over real life yugioh. I don't have a locals near me where I can play and the pandemic is a obvious issue as well. But there are still cards I get in real life every now and then cause I like them tho.
Who is your favorite antagonist in all of yugioh (all of the series) ?
As a “returning” player trying to get back into yugioh (20 years ago almost), I have one question. Does the gameplay/rule set in master duel transfer to the physical game? Basically if I learn to play using Master Duel can I recreate my deck with physical cards and everything play the same? I know with some of the older yugioh games they kinda had their own set of rules and played different then the actual physical game.
Aside from it being automated everything else is the same. The only major difference is in physical tournaments you have a bo3 instead of a best of one and you have a side deck where you can sub cards in and out. I'm also pretty sure master duel uses a slightly different ban list than NA does so you might want to check that out if you do play physical yugioh. But when master duel gets tournaments it's 100% going to have side deck so that won't be a difference for too long.
@@MaPleWoRlDOrder Thanks
master duel is just missing alot of cards but for the most part its the same besides best of 1.. and that kinda sucks if you drew a bad hand
To me Master Duel is the better option. because I don't have any locals nearby. and I do not have the money to buy a competitive deck.
Master Duel solves this problem.
You can create a relative competitive deck for free.
Something unheard of until now.
That is the biggest appeal 2 master duel.
The fact that you can create a deck, and be good at the game Feels awesome.
Also I have a lot of friends overseas, Who can play this game with me now. Basically the game gave me fun times with my friends and I am grateful for it.
But that is my opinion.
For deck building in Master Duel, I have yet to spend money.
In my first hour was able to get a playset of every Dragonmaid card except for Sheou, which I have 2 of.
I currently also have a pure Aromage deck with only a couple cards missing a full playset as well. I'm two cards short of a playset for every Live Twin/Evil Twin and Witchcrafter too
Now after blasting through basically the entire solo game content currently available and most of the easy missions, getting gems has slowed down a lot. However, I've not been finding it hard to make a few hundred a day. It seems pretty easy to earn at least one pack a day.
So with a couple pack openings a day, combined with crafting, I've not been having trouble making my pure archetype decks.
I might spend money to buy those limited time gem sales but that's something I'm very meh on.
A fellow dragonmaid player. I just recently made the deck after seeing it played against me, and I gotta say that I'm loving it
@@kennethconnor4755 Its such a fun deck to play, Ive made it to platinum rank 4 with a pure Dragonmaid deck. But Im finally starting to deal with ppl using negates. I might have to start adding non Dragonmaid cards to this deck >.....
@@Samantha_yyz Yeah. Thats the one issue i see with dragonmaid. If you get the right hand, its a turn 2 or 3 win. if not, then its a fight to see if you can keep up with stuff thats super competitive
@@kennethconnor4755 yah, but when someone does break up your flow and you still manage to build back up and win it just feels that much cooler
@@Samantha_yyz For sure. I once had like a 30 turn game against another dragonmaid deck. It was so much fun, we were just going back and forth, building fields, destroying cards and back and forth and it was amazing
For me it was different i played the physcal tcg and went to a lot of locals and reigonals in the middle east however i got destroyed becasue it was just a young kid at that time that had bo loney and had to deal with 60 adults and late teens playing overpowerd meta decks that cost thousands of dollers and get instantly destroyed so i quit and just played the online version but a big deal is price master duel i can bulid good meta decks for free meanwhile in irl meta decks costs a lot of money and they change a lot so thats why i shofted from physcla yu gi oh to master duel
I wish Master Duel let me have done reactions to my opponents moves.
There are times I just want to be like Whoa when someone does something cool and just wrecks me. Or when I miss play something to be like, oh damn it I'm fucked now lol
Or at least just something to convey that was a great duel
Thank god for no chat on master duel because with all the meta try hands and the troll decks I have seen on there, I could see a lot of toxic chatting happening.
I personally only play the game with friends which is really the way I have any fun playing the game since we aren’t assholes to each other and we play for fun.
Master duel have been fun on the solo side for me and getting to learn about different decks.
truuueeee
