I made it my goal to get Prime Material Dragon onto the board and just sit there like a super villain as the Burn Player tries to figure out how to get out of it.
As much as this event was just burn strats I preferred it WAY more than the anxiety attack inducing 30 second event. After I finished that event I had to have a drink to calm my nerves.
I am giving this event all the golden stars. This event was AWESOME because the metagame pretty quickly evolved, was cheap to play and something which often gets ignored: Games were either really quick, or INSTANTLY really exciting. I kind of hope this one sees a revisit.
After i got my Demon title i went full anti-meta mode, determined to stall out every burn deck trying to empty their hand ASAP, playing i think 21 handtraps near the end of the event + Metal Reflect Slime + Guardian to cover normal summon beats + Aroma Jar + Cauldron + Golden Ladybug (i think it was named) for constant lifegain once a turn ending handtrap had resolved on their turn along with Damage Juggler + Hat Tricker which was 3 handtraps that also served as copies 4 5 and 6 of Hat Tricker. In an early version of the build i also played Neo Spacian Air Hummingbird as the 40th card as a windmill slam turn 1 play for a casual 2500 extra lifepoints.
In this event I stubbornly decided to play VW to turbo out the red dragon archfiend that burns using tzolkin, which burns for 2500 exactly if you have a full field. Anyway it took me 2 hours to get one win and finished the event 5 minutes afterwards
I played vatlantz and turboed out appo to protect from anti burn. Then gustav max and cowboy for game. Opponents not playing actual handtraps made it super consistent
I am sure everyone hated me for being the guy playing no handtraps dragon link just to spite the burn players with seals into prime material dragon + chaos angel
0:28 Hanewata, and Eco, Mystical Spirit of the Forest were the staple handtraps (and main deck monster being the performage). And the staple spell being "poison of the old man". D/D/D Rebel King Leonidas and D/D/D Oracle King D'Arc were, in my opinion, unexplored territory that could win you the game on their own. SPECIALLY Leonidas 5:26 DANG IT! I missed the chance to win that title!
I saw every anti-burn card imaginable throughout this event We have another Performage,Leonidas,Gorz funnily enough has a second effect and Eco is a card I like and was really happy it found an environment to shine in these 3 days
This tryout duel was more entertaining than what i expected. Played, Swordsoul, Labrynth, Blackwings, Sunavalon, i saw people on Branded too...and completing the FTK secret mission in one day was nice too
These events only work because they are so short. Give it a few more days and they would be really stall and boring. For once, they did the right thing.
I actually loved this event/ format. watching the burn meta evolve and adapt live at breakneck speeds was truly something. Meme Burn > Burn > Optimized Burn > Anti-Burn > burn @ anti-burn > burn @ anti-burn + removal for Leonidas all developed over the course of like one day. Really enjoyed the TT Thrust to search TT Talents to take their Leonidas so you can OTK though Leo line. 10/10 would play again.
i could've farmed my Demon title the boring way, but instead i decided to put together a dumb bad inconsistent Gallis deck to mill level 11s or 12s for oneshot lethals 10/10 would gallis again
I actually just did this event with my normal Swordsoul deck (bar some minor tweaks). A fair number of people were special summoning monsters and activating Spell/Traps without being able to remove Qixing Longyuan beforehand, so I was decently successful at just burning people to death without adding a single burn card outside the archetype.
This event allowed me to finally have a valid reason to main deck the emissary of darkness themself.. I also learned that the performages are kinda crazy when it comes to countering burn damage effects.. This was also the best event to grind the Duelpass insanely quickly.. Now I don't have to feel bad about not playing yugioh for a few days or so..
had a blast in this event with dinomorphia subverting the expectations of all the people who have never read the second effect of any dinomorphia normal trap (which was seemingly everyone)
It's funny how you could play swordsoul for both extreme duels. The deck is fast if you just aim for chixiao barone blackout pass and you could always do chixiao and the burn synchro made with longyun so it burns for 1200 and then as soon the opponent activates a spell they get another 1200 and they are dead
If I played this I'd make a deck with as many anti burn tech as possible and fill the rest with 2100 atk free special summon idiots to dome my opponents for lethal, that Ecclesia normal summon was hilarious lol
love how MBT went to get the Demon title, I wanted to do that to but then I realized I already had it because I spend the first couple months of MDs lifespan plaing nothing but Gem Knight FTK xD
Very much enjoyed this event! I played 3 eco, 3 junkuriboh, 3 fire cracker, 2 hanewata, 2x Anchamoufrite, 2x duality, 2 pot of desires, 3 restructor revolution, 3 poison of the old man, and bunch of the other good burn spells (none of that 200 and 300 burn garbage lol). Had a lot of fun because of the counterplay that existed (weirdly enough for burn). There were decisions to be made at times like: do I want to reflect damage and have a body on board by risking letting the chain resolve for eco or do I want to negate the damage and destroy right away with junkuriboh to keep them off lethal (also hard counters eco and a few other cards which was super nice). Fire cracker being quick play was also nice and his “side effect” of skipping draw phase actually counters the time lord burn strat a bunch of players were using; the 1000 dmg was nice to use as bait for hanewata during their turn or to chain to hanewata and kill them before it resolves. Poison of the old man was a very versatile card as well since you could choose to heal instead of burn at times and get your opponent to miss lethal that way lol
Both events were a ton of fun! I enjoyed playing a bunch of random burn cards that I never would in normal play. As for the 30 seconds event I used a Ra deck that I normally can’t use competitively!
Actually played Swordsoul in the event and played against 1 burn player the whole time. Branded is what is pretty common when I played and It was basically Long Yuan to Long Yuan synchro pass for me cuz they can't do anything without triggering his burn
if you didn't play burn deck in this event, you really missed the point of celebrating new year and we feel sad for you! this event point was to simulate firework in ygo (through playing burn), not a playing branded puppet lock event!
For this event I just played my go-to of Flower Cardians and tried to end on double Lightshower. Turns out double 1500 burn damage on their draw is pretty decent.
I made a zoodiac deck with the sole purpose of winning with boarbow direct attack. Going second was very risky in this format, but when it worked I felt so happy
I decided on Zoo FTK, using every rank 4 extender I could get my hands on to make Galaxy Photon Dragon to search Galaxy Wave and then start stacking Zoo monsters
In the event I just used my normal shiranui deck and went against darklords. When i activated swallow slash to pop 2 of his cards he chained gift basket to which I was like "Ha you fool!" and chained soleminity (the trap that treats itself as it) only for them to chain a 2nd gift basket
I think the reason these last 2 were fun was bc its kinda like battle bots, you either get a list or make your own and see how often it can do what it wants, and then you leave once you've had enough. I hope they can find more mini events like this more often because they are a nice break from ladder.
so the best troll deck is d/d/d then. just search that one dude that completely prevents any form of burn or make the fusion that heals you instead and you can take people hostage that have probably no removal at all
I am SO glad I didn't catch covid until the 3rd and worst of the 3 events because the amount of fun shit I would've missed out on, particularly in the 2024 event, would've been horrible.
I honestly want to see more events like this, I know it might take a fair bit of work but what if they made an extreme duel, but made it work like rush duels how wild would that be
I had a great time playing D/D/D. I got some FTKs with multiple shots of King Tell while surviving my opponents with Leonidas. Tremendous Fire becomes an extender with him and Orthros!
It kinda sucks to see everyone getting the Demon tutle super easily, because I got it before this event by using Dark World and hoping my opponent drew maxx c
for this event i just loaded up on more of the burn spells because, as long as the average burn damage from a card in my hand is 405, i win. so anything that did 400 or more, i put in. the rest were pots and into the void etc. why bother with anything else? cards to prevent getting burned? i'll just scoop if i lose the coin flip. yugioh's never been worse
Sword souls was the best deck for the event imo. Just it's standard combo line can take upto 3600 damage, not to mention you ending your board with minimum monster negate and 2 pops. You can add around 10 damage negates whilst still keeping the same consistency meaning your win rates very high going second, even playing non burn decks. Fair to say top 3 events on master duel to date
I played a blind second anti-burn deck that even worked surprisingly well into "normal" decks. Damage Juggler was sick at killing Qixing Longyuans left and right and Hanewata into Special Photon Thrasher for game will never be not funny
I just played my regular harpie deck that I normally play. Had fun enough except against decks like yours, but at least they go by fairly quick. Not complaining, I'm just not versed enough in the game to come up with crazy strats.
So many things crawled out of the woodwork just to counter a burn meta, a glorious time for all Burnie's
Burnie 2024
Heh. Burning woodwork
Leonidas is such a sick burn counter lmao. My favorite of the bunch.
@@eu4umi made a whole d/d deck just to have a laugh. Almost every time they saw joann they scooped
Enjoyed the mini burn meta as it evolved, counter cards and whatnot starting to be played, as well as the near disappearing of Maxx "C".
Hanowata is the Maxx C of burn
Leonidas being an unbeatable menace unless you had exactly the Pyro Burn spell that burns for 1300+ to chain to Old man/Cracker was amazing
I made it my goal to get Prime Material Dragon onto the board and just sit there like a super villain as the Burn Player tries to figure out how to get out of it.
As much as this event was just burn strats I preferred it WAY more than the anxiety attack inducing 30 second event. After I finished that event I had to have a drink to calm my nerves.
If we consistently get like one of these mini events like once a week, it'd be pretty awesome for the Game i feel.
It can be like Tavern Brawl in HS
Midweek Magic in YuGiOh
gimmie all normal monster event
Messing with rules would be neat too, like a 20 card deck or 100 card deck format, or something like no monsters or no special summoning
@@theheartbreakcatit's will become spyral event
I am giving this event all the golden stars. This event was AWESOME because the metagame pretty quickly evolved, was cheap to play and something which often gets ignored: Games were either really quick, or INSTANTLY really exciting. I kind of hope this one sees a revisit.
Solid analysis.

MBT proving yet again that the best way to play Yu-Gi-Oh is to play as little Yu-Gi-Oh as humanly possible.
My favorite moment during this extreme duel was resolving Barrel Behind the Door against magic cylinder.
In this event I stubbornly decided to play VW to turbo out the red dragon archfiend that burns using tzolkin, which burns for 2500 exactly if you have a full field.
Anyway it took me 2 hours to get one win and finished the event 5 minutes afterwards

o7
I am sure everyone hated me for being the guy playing no handtraps dragon link just to spite the burn players with seals into prime material dragon + chaos angel
@@yunfanjiI did no hand traps level 7 dragon turbo feels good
This event was absolutely insane, I won one of my games by building a big burn chain with my opponent and then flipping Nature's Reflection.
I literally played this event for 4 hours just to max my duel pass. Quickest wins in Master Duel history.
Now i regret not having played more
Literally what I did 😂😂
same
Same. Finished in one weekend night. I bet that was an oversight and won’t happen again lmao
It’s a strange time in our life when burn is a fun way to play this card game.
0:28 Hanewata, and Eco, Mystical Spirit of the Forest were the staple handtraps (and main deck monster being the performage). And the staple spell being "poison of the old man".
D/D/D Rebel King Leonidas and D/D/D Oracle King D'Arc were, in my opinion, unexplored territory that could win you the game on their own. SPECIALLY Leonidas

Any Rain Goats?
@@MollyWolfArt unfortunately no,but it would be really funny
This event was so silly, I loved farming the FTK Secret Mission while playing it.
I didn’t even know that mission existed until that event.
This tryout duel was more entertaining than what i expected. Played, Swordsoul, Labrynth, Blackwings, Sunavalon, i saw people on Branded too...and completing the FTK secret mission in one day was nice too
I hate to say it but I really like this event, it eventually did get to a point where decks were getting really creative
These events only work because they are so short. Give it a few more days and they would be really stall and boring. For once, they did the right thing.
As a D/D player since 2017, seeing my boy Leonidas finally becoming a scoop-caliber threat in a format was a joy I know I'll never get to see again.
D.D Dynamite was also a possible threat when paired with Banquet of millions
I actually loved this event/ format. watching the burn meta evolve and adapt live at breakneck speeds was truly something. Meme Burn > Burn > Optimized Burn > Anti-Burn > burn @ anti-burn > burn @ anti-burn + removal for Leonidas all developed over the course of like one day. Really enjoyed the TT Thrust to search TT Talents to take their Leonidas so you can OTK though Leo line. 10/10 would play again.
When I found that monkeys paw and wished to go back to 2008 I really should've been more specific.
It's so funny that the most fun youve had playing yugioh are in the events where you spend the least time playing yugioh
I just played a red eyes labyrinth deck and used red resonator to heal
i loved this and the 30 second event because they promoted the dumbest cards to see play i really hope they do something like this again
I loved how everyone had the same idea with getting the Demon title and would surrender if they went 2nd. Thus making it agonizing to get it myself.
I realized that was happening so I stopped surrendering if I lost the coin flip. I only surrendered if the person wasn't playing for the FTK
Stuff like that is why konami needs to have a penalty system for surrendering
i could've farmed my Demon title the boring way, but instead i decided to put together a dumb bad inconsistent Gallis deck to mill level 11s or 12s for oneshot lethals
10/10 would gallis again
I actually just did this event with my normal Swordsoul deck (bar some minor tweaks). A fair number of people were special summoning monsters and activating Spell/Traps without being able to remove Qixing Longyuan beforehand, so I was decently successful at just burning people to death without adding a single burn card outside the archetype.

The fools 😂😂😂
This event allowed me to finally have a valid reason to main deck the emissary of darkness themself..
I also learned that the performages are kinda crazy when it comes to countering burn damage effects..
This was also the best event to grind the Duelpass insanely quickly.. Now I don't have to feel bad about not playing yugioh for a few days or so..
It's the PSP Tag Force Duel academy basement format!! (all enemies had like 1k lp so you could use a burn deck to rush through them)
Oh boy I sure can’t wait for next years event where we have to burn for 2025 damage.
had a blast in this event with dinomorphia subverting the expectations of all the people who have never read the second effect of any dinomorphia normal trap (which was seemingly everyone)

This video isn't 20:24, I am mad.
Itd be fun to have a no battle damage event
Spell of Pain has won me duels in this event and it was funny

I hope they can find more mini events like this more often because they are a nice break from ladder.
I was on branded Despia as well. Double masquerade turbo.
Duel links burn meta be like:
This was my favorite master duel event by far
First arc of Duelist Kingdom flashback with these lifepoints
10:09 "Sir, a second juggler has hit the field"
so the best troll deck is d/d/d then. just search that one dude that completely prevents any form of burn or make the fusion that heals you instead and you can take people hostage that have probably no removal at all
I just played trickstar and had a lot of fun with this event
This event was sooo much fun!
Anyone know what MBT's sub sound "That was wrong" is from?
surprised i didn't see any Banquet of Millions plus D.D Dynamite during the event
I am SO glad I didn't catch covid until the 3rd and worst of the 3 events because the amount of fun shit I would've missed out on, particularly in the 2024 event, would've been horrible.
Everyone here had all these complicated strategies, I just played my usual SwordSoul deck with burn cards and a Dark Strike Fighter tech 💀
Tried to get Demon title here too, after a couple quick FTK’s I proceeded to lose the coin toss 9 straight games somehow
I played Nature’s Reflection and it was awesome
Branded dude was probably just playing Triple Tax man
I loved playing banish cards with D.D dynamite.
I’ve had the demon title since the beginning of master duel since the tri-bird angel of mischief ftk was completely untouched
Jokes on you Joseph, I got 'Demon' by playing Pendulum FTK for the first 6 months of MD while instant fusion was legal lmao
I honestly want to see more events like this, I know it might take a fair bit of work but what if they made an extreme duel, but made it work like rush duels how wild would that be
Sparks win rate soaring through this event
I had a great time playing D/D/D. I got some FTKs with multiple shots of King Tell while surviving my opponents with Leonidas. Tremendous Fire becomes an extender with him and Orthros!
Oh I am late for this one, could not use my achacha chambara and archer combo in time
I used this event to build burn but the burn I built was That Six Prediction Princess Dice Jar because that's way funnier
I'm surprised by the lack of nurse burn
I’ve been playing burn for 15 years; has the event that now convinces me to join master duel finally happened?
I played windwitch. Which worked surprisingly well
It kinda sucks to see everyone getting the Demon tutle super easily, because I got it before this event by using Dark World and hoping my opponent drew maxx c
I just used Traptrix for this event. Just bringing two copies of Gravediggers trap hole and let them to the work.
I just played my usual red eyes deck, subbing out stuff for more burn. A red eyes and inferno fire just kills.
Pure burn is nice but I liked triple Masquerade turbo.
So much obscure counter for burn card. And near disappearance of the roach.
I played timelords for both this and the 30 seconds fest and have no regrets
What is the demon title?
Now I notice, since everyone was playing burn in this event, its wasn't possible to do the Gorz ZTK?
Frankly I'm just glad you of all the yugitubers learned there's more than three different songs in the masterduel ost and use them
Soul levy plus skull invitation worked for me
I really hope they add an event for when we start with 25,000 life points for 2025.
for this event i just loaded up on more of the burn spells because, as long as the average burn damage from a card in my hand is 405, i win. so anything that did 400 or more, i put in. the rest were pots and into the void etc. why bother with anything else? cards to prevent getting burned? i'll just scoop if i lose the coin flip. yugioh's never been worse

Prime material dragon goes hard here
This is FUN!!!
9:03 i felt that lol
agreed with what you said at the end, the extreme duels have been awesome somehow lmao
To play this format I played aromages and got my lp back to 8k. Very funny time
Fire phoenix is gonna be insane
