when they announced a gamemode called "team battle" I genuinely thought they were going to add tag team. but no, apparently 3-5 guys playing ranked on their own at the same time is the true meaning of teamwork
Well, that's what team matches in TCG are. The difference in paper is you're allowed to discuss your plays with team mates, which is normally not allowed in 1v1 matches, and your W/L depends on the whole team not just your game. Doesn't translate super well into the digital realm I guess.
I tried this game mode a grand total of once. I thought it would be something like, Tag Duels, but with a client. But no, it's literally just normal ladder but worse, because your game is now dependant on other people and games you have literally zero input on unless you happen to be in a Discord call with your teammates, which honestly would probably count as cheating by some criteria. Seriously, who tf looked at the state of Master Duel and thought. "You know what would be really popular? A game mode with more variance and even less skillful decision making that could impact the outcome.". Jesus christ, the thing that upsets me most about Master Duel is there is so much potential for creativity for events that we can see occasionally, and so many cool game modes that seem blatantly obvious, but half the time it feels like the team running it looks at all that and says "Let's do the normal ladder that half the playerbase is burnt out on, but again and arguably worse!". That's why I hate on Duelist Cups being treated like events so much, it's a worthless nothing event, the banlist isn't any different, if you took the entirety of the Duelist Cup rewards, and slap it into a tab beneath the normal ladder games, it would actually IMPROVE, because the only difference between Ladder and DC is chosing what tab you want to load before you play the game and having the event rewards and ladder rewards needlessly exclusive for experiencing the exact same gameplay. And now instead of a month where we get to chose between ladder and a cool alternative format, we get to chose between "Standard ladder", and "Ladder, but again".
Well typed. Got me thinking about what infuriates me about everything in MD that isn't the ranked experience, and I think its something that irks me about some games which is features that are obviously objectively subpar not getting fixed or removed. Solo mode could be so much better, but it could also be a little better if they highered one guy with a one time $40 payment to fix 80% of the spelling errors. Team battle could easily be removed and not a single soul would care. Events could be allowed to run until the next one started so there is always something other than ranked to try. Except for the last one, because I don't know what kind of coding/server managing goes into facilitating events, there are these simple changes that would make MD look better as a whole, but they are always around just reminding me how little effort is put into these sort of things.
Even the “casual mode " is full of people playing a meta deck, sometimes I try that mode yet again to have fun with some "stupid” decks and I can't even make it to my second round.
@@aaronking2020 I don't know what to tell you, you must have been lucky or you play that mode more than me. Most of the times I've played on it, people were playing meta decks.
Worst part is that plenty of people would actually be happy if they just added a different version of Ranked like "Ranked but Legacy Pack cards only" but they can't even do that.
wish they added something like path of champions from runeterra but that would take effort into a pve mode beyond random card background with text over it and doesn't make money like releasing a new broken archtype so it's never gonna happen
Ranked is their main game mode and they want as many people as possible to play it. Also, casual might've just turned into a self TK city with people playing decks curated solely to do dailies, because there's no "stakes". You can do your dailies in Duellist Cup or other events, since you kinda want to win them, so you wouldn't throw for 40 gems.
Really if this was cardfight vanguard i wouldnt complain since this just there tourney mode, but cardight is 3v3 and we do it for reasons. No one can have same deck and carfight decks are like like similar to heartstone where you need to pick you class and cant use form other classes But also yugioh has a few team modes we seen we got tag duels and where have the team duels form 5ds anime and the ds game
You, or someone else that isn't me, should just pick a weekend and make an event for this game mode. It's fun but getting 3 people to play it on a regular day is hard...
So wonderful that master duel resists multiplayer. Nobody wants to play it because if there are 3+ of us, my friends won't want to since the only option is 1v1, and 3v3/5v5 online is pointless since there is no team ranked and they are new/inexperienced players and are playing shit like structure deck dark magician..
Me, having never touched this game mode: Oh, it's like Tag Duels? Oh, you need to queue with 3 to 5 players? Oof, that's rough. Oh man, nobody is playing? Never going get games going then. Oh, everyone just plays on their own? Fuck this game mode.

Stun is rough. Even rougher when you play it and still lose
bro I never win with stun.. I don't know what im doing wrong.. my opponents just always have the outs..

You mean, "when you play it and still lose in 1 turn". The whole purpose of stun is to drag out the game for a bit longer.
