#YuGiOh #MasterDuel #yugiohmasterduel
Instead of crafting cards I think all we really need is to be able to convert gold into gems. That would be good enough for me at the bare minimum
too op cause gold is hella easy to get
They need to add BOX chips to events.
EX jewels to gems would be nice.
i agree
â@@ArcYT123as if crafting cards wouldn't be even easier...
both speed duel and rush duel should be absorbed into master duel, when u click on duel it gives you the option which game mode you want.
its only one game mode MD has and its ranked. Team battle is shit, casual is ranked without gems and events are only good sometimes, but they only last for 2 weeks.
New more game modes because I know more games modes cannot kill a game
Wouldnât do much. The people that mainly still play Duel Links are anime fans and MD has zero anime influence.
@@mrharvy100MD has pushed products with heavy anime themes including structure and selection.
It even makes fests sometimes but sadly often overshadowed by newer themes in that department.
MD can benefit from the Trial thing if expanded on not for literally one pack.
I also always pipe dreamed Year-Of Fest or Era fest focused on recipes for throwback deck building or putting together some necessary force for anime deck building.
I actually really like this idea. My main problem with DL was the difficulty of acquiring specific cards. If you could craft cards in MD and used them in a DL game mode, that would be GREAT!
Just give me Tag Duels REEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Iâm personally not invested into Rush Duel, but Iâm simply cautiously optimistic how it would turn out in Duel Links since we have the option to switch between Speed Duel and Rush Duel.
As long as they keep the formats seperate it should be fine. The only problem will arise when they try to put new rush duel cards into the game are they going to put them in normal boxes or will they make special rush duel boxes? Hopefully theyll keep the boxes seperate too, i have no interest in rush duel and would hate to be pulling URs for that format when i have no interest in playing it.
I think the cards should be integrated.
â@@residentgreyall cards. Even with normal cards đ
I'm actually looking forward to this. I taught my teenage daughter the basics of dueling in a bit of a rush duel format with real cards and she enjoyed it. She refuses to play Master Duel because she sees me play and thinks it's too complicated for her to get into. She stopped playing Duel Links sometime earlier this year probably because Links made the game even harder for her. I think this might be a way for her to get back in and I'm gonna tell her about it as I did enjoying Dueling as our bonding thing.
Fingers crossed for ya!
@@mina-tarahelena2478 thanks
Can someone explain, what's so complicate about Master and Speed duel format? Am i the only one, who thinks, that none of YGO duel formats and cards themselves aren't complicated in any way, huh? Oh, and it seems, i'm the only one, who doesn't see any difference between Master, Speed and Rush cards, cuz all of them are same cards. The only difference is, that they have different logos, but playstyle for all of those cards are literally same. I mean, i use my Master and Speed duel cards into Rush duel mode, cuz they're the very same cards and i even have Speed and Master cards mixed up with each other. If they ever release Rush cards into TCG, i'll mix them up with Speed and Master cards too, cuz they're no different, than any other YGO cards.
@@johnnykend5728 I'm the same way where I understand the formats. My kid, not so much lol. I've tried to tell her she could play any format as I taught her enough that she understands several summoning mechanics and other nuances of the game. I think she just gets intimidated seeing all the interactions and disruptions in MD since it's much more fast-paced than DL and there are more cards you can be disrupted with.
@@yamitommy4015 Idk, but i have no problems with any of it. Expecially extra card summoning, like XYZ. Those extra cards literally works in the very same way as Fusion monsters, the only thing, that you don't need to use some kinda Fusion card to Synchro, XYZ or Link summon. Pendulum summon is also piece of cake to understand. There's nothing difficult in anything in YGO at all. Probably ppl just want to complain about something and act that they're clueless.
I played Master Duel but only for the first 3 months and went back to only Duel Links. I just got so bored of multiple decks making the same end boards. Also, (and this could be just a me thing) I like to have anime duels. DL gives you the opportunity to play so many different decks with so many different cards. I am very excited for the new 7s world to come out. I just hope that Komoney makes 2 different gem currency for the different playstyles. Crafting cards would be fun too but I think I already have enough copium.
boring in master duel, sure. but there is merit in aboe to craft, unlike duel links
Master duel does this but times 10 I play utopia a seemingly rogue archetype and I destroy meta decks with it, I main it and have hit master rank 1 with it which is the highest rank in the game u can play any deck u want, who cares what your opponent plays, if u play your cards right and build your deck right youâll be able to beat any meta deck
I too enjoy anime duels. Master duel doesn't have the same feel where only a select few cards have animations.
@@michaeldavid1566thatâs true. But in my opinion thereâs no point in crafting if the matches in which you use the crafted cards are all objectively, almost without fail, complete misery since youâre usually staring down the same 10 negate board or the insurmountable Tearlaments. If you donât play meta thereâs effectively no way for you to enjoy master duel. Duel Links isnât as meta exclusive
a lot of the best decks in the format donât put up a lot of negates, moreso quick play monster removal zone removal, trap based disruption, and wide use of handtraps, the multi negate boards youâre talking about are often done by more rouge, less consistent combo decks.
We can turn on a pressure on this company to oblige it to add a respected crafting system that respect the brains of players
Thats not going to happen. It takes the need of going through the box 3x times to get every card you need. If you add a crafting system youll at most only have to go through the box once unless youre just someone who has to own 3x of every card or want multiple archetypes out of a box, which most people dont care about except some content creators. It cuts their profits down from new releases to 1/3 or a 66% drop in sales with the release of a crafting system. If they make a crafting system it has to be strictly worse than Master Duel's because it hurts their monetization that bad. Honestly i dont mind have a crafting system, we have box chips, the exchange trades for banned cards, dream tickets, and a plethera of pure f2p through level up and drop rewards cards that master duel doesnt have access to. And not to mention allot of the gatekeeping staples that come out of selection boxes have been limited to 3, so its not like you have to whale every new selection box to stay ahead of the curve. And above everything else gems are 10x easier to come by in duel links and packs are half as cheap, and we regularly get 50% of gem sales meaning 10 packs cost 1/4 what they do in master duel for everything except the latest like 6-8 packs. And grinding is so much easier, hitting an auto duel button and leaving to work on something else is so much better than painstakingly playing the loaner decks in the master duel events or trying to rank up on the ladder.
TLDR; they wont add a crafting because it cuts profits by an agregious amount, but thats balanced by the fact gems are easier to come by and packs are far cheaper.
I dont care about rush duel i just want crafting system like master duel
â@@likiiriThat would kill the pay2win players. I'm pretty sure that too could kill the game
@@ChikoTheOGDog nowadays its too hard to make Ă meta F2P deck but i think you're right
....right. Of course. An alternate game mode will kill a game. Of course.
How are you this innocent
It won't
â@@HyperWhale286no it will
My thing is, if I have to invest time and resources into a whole other side of a game, and there's no in between resources to help make up for that between the two game modes, that immediately makes me less likely to regularly play it.
Im gonna come back to this game just for this tbh
With how the card releases are in duel links and the gem income this is gonna be brutal for anyone who doesnât have a new account.
The gem income is fine. Its at least better than master duel, who only has 2 reliable ways to get gems outside of making new accounts both of which are PVP related and thats rarely fun. We can just auto duel and level up or play events/pvp. Just because we dont get 1000 gems for our first 5 event wins doesnt mean our gem income is somehow worse.
@@tmoney1487 bro what? I played duel links for years you do not get shit for gems on that game. It takes like 30k just to build 1 deck lmao.
@@tmoney1487 lmao , you buying the structure decks once and called it a complete deck or something ? lmao
2:53 for preschoolers
I hope Konami does this right. Duel links is the only Yu-Gi-Oh game I'm playing right now and if it goes under i'll probably be done.
Same.. I tried MD but it became too stale, too exhausting for me to play daily.
If Rush Duel kills DL, I think I would be done with Yu-Gi-Oh, since it's also the only format I play today
â@soupe2000 I agree with you both. If DL dies, I'm done as well. BUT !! If Konami took ALL the summoning animations , playable yugioh characters with their respective skills, as well as the ability to duel against Ai ... and move it from duel links/speed duel, all into Master Duel..then
I'd be okay with duel link's dying to Rush Duel.
â@@soupe2000MD really waste ur time for one match only
@@Wuunderboy Lol if they did that I would have started playing master duel a while ago. Better card pool I just don't have time for it as the game is now.
@@ChaosWindScar99 I'm not saying back then. I'm saying they need to do this now! If they want to keep their player base numbers up
When he mentions that Rush Duels is an entry point for new players, I think this is their answer to the shareholder meeting a while back. They asked the head of Konami how they can get new people into the game because itâs such a complex game. Well, this might help a bit with that issue, but another issue is player retention. Wonder how theyâre going to address that too. They said transitioning from Master Duel to real life card game wasnât exactly the same and some people might be turned off by that. So if they like Rush Duels, but want to explore other Yu-Gi-Oh! versions of the card game, do you think theyâll transition over well and stay playing that game too?
I agree with game retention. I have 10 other games apps installed in my phone for when one of my top 3 falls off. DL is one of my daily games because itâs so fun, i welcome any change as long as it doesnât make it boring or tedious or stressing. Fun over everything else.
I guess, i'lkl never understand any of you, what's so complex about YGO game, cuz i see nothing difficult to understand. Everything is easy peasy to understand.
I like your thinking on this video, not gonna lie. But it also feels like weâre overthinking it, since the next world after Vrains was pretty much meant to be Sevens as long Konami planned that from the go, so no big surprise really when weâve known for years how they manage each new world release.
âBut theyâre also gonna open Rush PvPâ
Also expected to be fair; itâd be weird to add Sevens world with a format that isnât theirs.
Well konami was thinking Master duel couldn't kill duel links completely let's add rush duel to it to complete the job
I think it's very stupid to add it to duel links after the failure of cross duel
Honestly I agree with you too
I think making rush duel a separate thing was a bad idea from the start. I like the idea of it being a hard reset, that's what I think we need. But they shouldn't alienate the fanbase that has been playing the game for years or confusing new players that there are 2 different formats which use different cards. It would probably have been better to make a new format with new rules but still allow players to use the cards they already have instead of forcing them to have to buy rush cards. It's one of the reasons I think magic gets away with it's multiple formats. There are loads of way to play magic but you don't need to have separate cards for each format.
For the people that don't understand, is not about the game, the game mode, the new world is HOW THEY IMPLEMENT IT, the gems, the economy, the fp2, etc.
Played DL for 4 years never heard the term f2p
@@s.m.nazmussakib8743 Played it since day 1 have never spend a cent. Always have at least 2 full meta decks, bunch of fun decks and got bored of KOG after 5 in a row, now i just play. and sometimes KOG if have time. I have so many decks that are filled with UR's lol. I am just a casual lol, just smart. Selection boxes suck. SD are hateful.
â@@s.m.nazmussakib8743 where do you get your money to spend on boxes
â@@s.m.nazmussakib8743 me neither
â@@s.m.nazmussakib8743Many f2p decks exist. Not f2p as in they cost 0 gems but f2p as in you can reasonably grind them out with gems. Salads and trickstars are excellent options for budget players in the current meta.
Iâm extremely wary and hesitant to embrace Rush especially as a DL player.
Hereâs hoping they studied up and make a fun and functional game within a game.
MD can hopefully follow suit and add Rush mode too if it can go to DL positively.
MD should get GOAT, Edison and BO3 instead
Konami already got the Experience of implementing Rush Duel in Digital Form with the Japanese Exclusive Rush Duel Video Game
Im not going anywhere near rush duels. DL is way good rn
If they add crafting and accessible cards, I'd go back to duel links. I like the quicker more interactive duels. I like rush duels too.
"interactive" i hope you dont have to play against trickstar
â@Otzkar still better than the crap you see on Master Duel, where you're basically just watching the other person play if they win the coin toss.
@@TheNiggaReview bro I started my turn with 400 lp. in masterduel you atleast have handtraps
@Otzkar bro at least you have a chance to fight back lol in Master Duel you lose the coin toss then sit there for 15 minutes for your opponent to set up an unbreakable board đ€Ł
@@TheNiggaReviewskill issue if u canât use ur hand traps properly. Even if some duels have u drawing no hand traps, you can just surrender and go next. Plus deck building has a big factor in this. You might not be playing a competent deck which u should if youâre on ranked. Much better than DL imo especially when I donât have to spend a penny to make multiple optimal decks vs spending my life savings building a subpar deck to just lose to a deck like trickstar in DL.
Rush duel and speed duels seem more balanced then modern Yu-Gi-Oh which is funny
True. I have been saying that for years now.
@@norrisjohnson6032 me and my friends were literally calling about rush duels and how it be great to have the format
Rush duel is actually very fun, the switch game lacks many updates so the cards available in it are very basic and it gets boring fast but if duel links rush duel is going to have updated card pool it will be very fun in fact the second rush duel switch game is very enjoyable, sadly it released only in Japan. If you want a faster pace game with more straightforward effects I would recommend giving a try in duel links. My personal experience has been very good honestly.
I enjoyed the playstyle of Duel links. It was nice to play a different format. It's just the deck building is too much of a grind and terribly designed. That completely brought me out of it. I would definitely try rush duel. Hopefully you can craft
@@euler2117 you're going to have the same issue with rush duel if Konami sticks with how they're going about this
I dont think anyone has a issue with rush duel in itself being fun or not. From potentially splitting the content to having a significantly larger game file (causing it to take up more space on your device) and even the simple fact of having 2 different games in 1 on a mobile game- overall, does not seem conducive to the relative success that Konami has been recieve from duel links nor does it seem conducive to maintaining the player base for the foreseeable future
Rush duel is just 1 anime right, so how big the card pool would be? Is the meta can even be switched? Or the anime even had that many fans, to make konami keep adding new card?
@@TeemoonMaster the rush duel format has a very large card pool, which is exclusive to their format. We dont expect their cards to be inserted into the main yugioh card pool, but we do expect the player base to be split between rush duel and speed duel format; which has a high possibility of doing a disservice to both "games"
Dang, I comeback to check dkayed channel and itâs still scarce of DL content. This is his choice to do what he wants but man I know some of the people in the community are hurt every time we see no DL content or just Md spam. Like I said I respect this man so much and donât hold anything over him. It just hits differently I feel like Dkayed literally taught me personally how to play DL through his videos and now itâs just different. I seen his video elaborating on why a little while back now and understand. His channel has grown soooo much over the years too still have nothing but love. Miss him calling me a âfoolâ through the screen and the purple flames when heâs cooking players online. The energy and assertive dominance when he starts the video showing the win streak with the deck that heâs playing. Then him teaching you how to clap everyone in RANKED DUEL. At one point he got me out of a time in my life where if his channel didnât exist Iâm pretty sure mine life wouldnât either. I love you and Syn and the COM. I watch MD every once in a while despite my dislike for the game I love to support when I can. Hats off to you and much love from the community in general. đâ€
Yeah I basically learned to play YGO watching him and I do miss his DL videos
Yeah it was fun, but I don't see anything wrong he's a content creator. He showcases DL for a very long time and then he had the opportunity to do something new with MD which his freedom. MD is the full experience of YGO and he was one of the best TCG player around his time, and having him to play MD is load of excitement and he deserves it. And besides his fan that plays MD needs his guidance and teachings. But what most important is we know Dkayed still have love for DL because it is where he came from, without DL he is not here, he might not reached this point. I learned a lot from him, though I tried MD but a turn takes too long and I have no time for that, I want a back and forth game instead, not a solitaire. And besides it's not healthy for him to manage 2 different contents, he stream the hole day and he have no much time either.
I think he said that if a majority of his subscribers want DLs content then he would do DLs content, but a lot of other people want to see MD content so that's what he does. I too wish for more DL content. I miss Meta weekly and just overall fun decks he used to play with.
I donât think they will kill DL. I think that they will keep RD at a low profile, with cards being dirt cheap (with a new currency). It seems that the strategy here is to hook younger audiences to get into DL. Some sort of extended tutorial mode.
But thatâs just my stupid opinion
DL and MD have their ups and downs, i would say the biggest drawback to DL is its way too expensive. I'm one of the ppl who played DL originally for years since release and switched to MD. And one of the main reasons is bc i can get alot more in MD, for little to no money. While DL i feel i had to drop easily over $100 a month, just to keep up with the meta. Now that theres a cheaper alternative to get my ygo fix, i cannot justify that amount of money. Life is expensive enough as is.
If crafting was introduced to DL i would be willing to give it another chance. Theres more to do to keep u busy than ladder. So it has that going for it.
MD on the other hand i enjoy the actual game more. Alot more decks, alot more things to learn, i enjoy the complexity, and its very affordable. Downside being it doesnt have anything else to do besides ladder and the monthly events (which are hit and miss, some good some terrible). Thats my only complaint about MD is that there needs to be more game content to keep us busy. Idk what, maybe a story mode (different than the current solo mode), something AI based, an ELO system. Maybe just have similar events like they have now, but have it be every week or two instead of every month. Something like that would be nice.
I do love each game, and i want them both to succeed. If these issues were addressed in each game i feel that would help tremendously. I would be happy playing both games if they fixed these issues.
that's how i feel.
To be honest I'm willing to try out the rush duel! I hope konami implements it correctly though. Also i really hope they add a crafting system to everything
If it's, at minimum, like the switch version, I can live with that. If they go the full duel links route, that might make the game excessively pricey and thus, inaccessible. Master duel was just way better than Duel links because of the cost. I can f2p my way to victory with MD, but duel links? Lol good luck.
I am... SO HAPPY
I have been wanting Rush Duel to come to the West for SO LONG and basically resigned to it never happening because it had been so long.
ILL TAKE WHAT I CAN GET :D
What I enjoy the most out of DL is making archetype decks, and learning how to play those decks. I don't know if rush duels has archetypes, but if they do it should not make much of a difference to me.
They do but very limited
I'm the same way with DL especially after making a Dinosaur Deck that I love so muchâ€â€â€
â@@dekaritheprofessor2631I see your Dino deck and raise you my Fossil deck which I love very much đ
There's 2 things I'd wish for a perfect Yugioh Game for me
Either duel links implementing the master duel crafting feature
or Master Duel implementing the characteristics of duel links, with it's fun, (sometimes) creative events and character's
also just duel links updating character's voice lines for their new cards (konami plz)
If they just took ALL the ace card summoning animations, playable yugioh characters with their respective skills, as well as the ability to duel against nothing but Ai, in Duel Links/Speed Duel... and move it all into a playlist on Master Duel....
Then we'd be okay
Not even gon lie to you if they just copied the characters and all their voicelines into master duel (without adding the skills obvs) we'd all be beyond hyped@@Wuunderboy
not even joking i mainly play duel links because of the tag duel event and because we get to play as our favorite characters
@PexceI exactly. And honestly you're not alone. Most people in the yugioh community only play DL for the same/similar reasons.
Konami needs to learn real quick! Otherwise they're gonna be left wondering why their player base drops like a new year's eve ball lol
I'm honestly excited, I actually love Rush Duels and I'm excited to finally get another official way to play it here in the States. Especially since if it's in Duel Links it should get more support than Dawn if the Battle Royal.
People always cry for Yu-Gi-Oh to be simpler and slow paced.
But every time konami tries this the community rages and it's so frickin funny
Just weirdo's. Rush Duels is the future.
I hate the idea of spending gems just to play a different format.
That will turn a lot of people off.
Great video DK!! As You said , DL lost many users when MD starts. Now Konami won't take risks with another rush duel Game, they prefer to add it to DL!!
Solid point
I played DL from 19-21 when MD came out. I havenât played ygo since 09, now the old DL i played before going to MD really gave me a good understanding on how the modern ygo is played. Xyz and synchro summoning was the only off thing i had to get used to then pendulum came and it was pretty simple mechanic and i learned about links when i moved to MD. The way DL is now ur better off playing MD
Duel links format is better. MD is 3 top tier and 3 good decks. Duel links is flavor of the month cause they meta shifts due to players wanting to play new card way more then old ones.
Even now Duel Links' format is more appealing because it's much faster. Sure there are a tons of different mechanics, and the complexity reached similar levels than MD but games are much quicker, error are much more costly and the format is actually refreshing.
Iâm sad how little Vrains got in Duel Links. Itâs literally the anime dedicated to the Speed Duel format that is used by Duel Links, including skills, and yet we got Varis, a teaser for the continuation of the cliffhanger that was the Vrains story and that was kinda it. For what is more or less the only place to find any conclusion of the Vrains story arc Iâm really disheartened with how under-utilised it currently is. So much potential is being wasted and as a massive fan of. Vrains I just wish they would do something with it.
The reason is they want to milk it. MILK IT GOOD FOR YEARS. (the current system is the fist year for new world is stalling second and third years of the world are fan service intense.)
Idk ... Rush duel looks like Yu-Gi-Oh player by kids when you could summon Dark Magician with no tributes đ
It require tributed but... unlimited normal summon bruh.
If they kill Duel Links Iâm done bc Master Duel is ehh
Rush duels is definitely a controversial one
Shouldn't be. Japan was forcing this over the last 3 years with the Anime and basically region locking everything in the anime and game to Japan, which begged the question: Do they even want it to succeed overseas if they don't give us a TCG version of the game and offer to play it on other clients like Duel links and Master Duel. The switch version was OOOOKKKK but it didn't get updated so it left you really wanting more.
â@@bobby45825yeahhh I don't like tht forceful japan anymore
Rush duel is just for the kids!
Personally as a Duel Links only player I never had the extra time to get into Master Duel so this seems pretty cool being as that I loved Duel Links for its once simplicity I would play these 2 before MD
Man, Dkayed just back for New World.
Just thinking that rush duel will get at least half of the structure decks and packs released to it gives me a headache đ”âđ«
Rush Duels being pushed on new players was the intention from the very, very beginning of its life. They don't even make an anime based off of the main game anymore because kids can't get into it anymore. I feel that RDs isn't meant to be an entry point for the game, but an alternative game outright.
The only Duel Link players it will completely steal would be the ones that are probably tired of DL, or even modern Yu-Gi-Oh, in the first place.
It seems like Konami is using this to test the market outside of Japan for Rush Duel.
The crafting mechanic for both rush duel and speed duel would be awesome. I hate spending so much gems just to get like 1 or 2 UR cards in a Mega box about 2 or 3 times.
i think that instead of a crafting system, they should give us more UR dream tickets because it is pretty much the same thing, card crafting is redundant where we can already get it with Dream tickets.
@@fadlanfadilah1171 fair point. Maybe like specific missions to do in order to get them instead of waiting for a special occasion/eventđ
@Textdkayedwon what???
Dream tickets as level 30 character level up rewards would've been great instead of a garbage regular UR ticket or a card you can already farm for free. I miss when the level 30 reward was 300 gems!
What iâm hoping happens is simply both speed duel and rush duel cards could be used in both versions to some extent. Like just have all the rush duel cards have equivalents in speed duel so when a newer player wishes to make a transition theyâre not basically forced to start from scratch. And for og players who want to try out rush duel, they can already hop into it with a portion of the stuff they already have.
Also yes, if they just give crafting to both modes I will be beyond delighted.
It looks like Rush Duels will be locked in Rush Duel characters since Alito and Celina that were the last characters to be added don't have line for maximun summon.
Not sure if they will allow Rush duel players to play Speed Duels with Rush Duel cards since there are some RD cards that also exist in SD/MD.
@@FranciscoRamirez-nb4uu It would be cool to see some of the RD art as SD cards but the cards themselves are a different design so it won't happen.
I didn't know rush duel cards had that Requirement & Effect layout. Pretty cool
It's significantly easier to understand the cards in RD
The only upside I see with Rush Duel format is being able to duel with an 8000 LP limit. It would be nice if they let players have the option to duel with a 8000 LP in Duel Links format but they most likely won't.
I dropped MtG after over 25 years and have been looking for a TCG home ever since. I play HS, LoR, Eternal and several others but I have always loved Yugioh. I'll give it a shot.
pray rush duel success for the future of yugioh.
the game targeting below 12 years to play, not you 30 years old bald people

I really want this to succeed. I've been watching Sevens and Go Rush since they came out.

@@scarletxxeditss Duel links adding a new mode that won't even affect the original game is going to cause it to die how? Simply due to its existence or something?
â@@scarletxxeditssDuel Links has 10x more the amount of daily players than what you're saying. You're using Steam stats as if they were all devices stats.

i dont think people who paid money are goin to be pissed about a crafting system since they could use all their duplicate cards to craft any card
I dont understand the issue here. All the games are from konami, they are making more money with the different games they have. Its not about duel links as now less players, but all the games together are getting more money to konami
I dont play DL but MD players in general has a hate boner for the game. They just try to make fun of the game for no reason đ like isn't it the same company that makes money from both.

What are you talking about? DL is free-to-play, I even built 15 decks in 2 years, most of them are top tier or was top tier just using gems, not mentioning the game have 200k+ gems. Maybe you're just too lazy to grind lol, to pay for the game is completely optional.

duel links would have tons of players if that game wont be a pay to win game
Honestly, i think this will be a huge success. I am a master duel player since day 1 and i hated playing speed duels. It always felt an incomplete Yu-Gi-Oh experience and it was very expensive. There is a need for a mobile game like rush duel since master duel mobile sucks and it can take long turns. I plan to play rush duel as my main mobile game.
Rush duel feels way too dumbed down. At that point, just revert back to duelist kingdom rules
Correction to 1:20, afaik, the fusion monsters brought in have multi-choice effects
I'n glad Dkayed still have love for Duel Links
Ngl maximum summon is really cool and based
Did Konami really lose any money if all the duel links players they loss went to MD
Yup they will for america
why didnât they just make it a separate game smh
not played links since master duel arrived, will probably come back to play this.
Last time they did that it was called cross duel and it died.
you realize last time they tried making a new game, it failed and is shutting down soon right?
â@@skyrimlover777not because of the game, it was hell p2w
@@xSerenaYGO that was down to crossduel being shite. rush duels are the ârebootâ of the card game and they are being soft launched digitally here by tacking it on to DL. doesnât really scream confidence.
@@pootcake i mean it would be a good business decision to add it to duel links rather than make it its own game lol.
Surely theyâve considered all this before adding it to the game, I donât want this to be the end đ
Ive been long since opening the Dl apps, but still it hurts if one day it come to an end. Been playing it when destiny hero structure meta
same i was playing duel links for five years now
Didn't think Dkayd would say that but here it is đ€
Yeah that sounds ridiculous đ€Šââïž
I'm a veteran player since the release of "The ultimate Rising" back in 2017 when gx wasn't even out. Duel links was an overall easy game with cool graphics and cool animations, i'd rather play on duel links than master duel because you're not lost in it. Duel links is full of potential, has regular events and even CHARACTERS, LINEVOICES !! (Everything master duel does not have)
Duel links has a particular ambiance that i love and if konami decides to melt the two game modes in a giant bowl then go on, it might introduce rush duels to a lot of people there is nothing to worry about. Yu-Gi-Oh players were always separated between "metagame" and "casual" and it will always stay as it no matter what. I think it sounds promising !
One issue is... how are they gonna introduce the sevens world ? Like right at the beginning for new players or they will have to go through *ALL* the boring stuff with Dm, Grinding ans stuff ?
Maybe they will just add SEVENS world next to VRAINS, but when you go there everything is different without affecting the other worlds, it have it's own event and stage missions, and that's that nothing to worry about, which means the same initial introduction, but after the full installation SEVENS world will be automatically unlock then it will introduce it to you (similar to Kaiba VS Yugi tutorial) the Rush Duel tutorial as well, but who knows, we'll see
Let's not forget the amazing character theme music. Yugo has my favorite theme music in the game and Celina's not bad either.
@@TheOmegaDragon Well master duel has good ost too, i wonder how seven themes will sound like
â@@bitsuuuuyes..and need more money to burn. At least not for old f2p players
Cross duel should not be Konami reasoning as to why rush duel is being added to duel links
Cross duel was an entire new form of yugioh, the marketing (i think) was kind of mid, the gameplay was not polished, lots of bots, and the game was essentially pay to win- as there was no getting better at the game just essentially having the best cards!
What can kill duel links is the fact I re-downloaded it because of the news and then remembered thereâs no way to craft cards.
Pretende to not have rush worls
I think modern Yugioh has the potential to kill Yugioh
Just make a new Rush Duel game. It would print them money and be certainly played more than Cross Duel was.
No way this game will kill duel links , this is duelling for dummies.
Yup it will buddy
They should have just made it character specific so it wouldn't break the game, and only 7s characters could draw 5 cards, but to use said effect they need to have the ace monsters in their deck which will automatically trigger the 5 card draw
Holy shit dkayed posting about duel links again đ±đ±đ±đ±
The look is very infantil.....look cards look game for baby and children ....no serius look
i played ygo my whole life. as a poor kid i grew up playing a free browser game "dueling network" (its duelingbook now) but mind you if you thought master duel players are sweaty then you havent seen a glimpse of DN players. and now that im older and have already tried gba ygo games, switch ygo games, phone ygo games, pc ygo games. the ygo game that i kept on coming back is still Duel links, for some odd reason i really like the vertical screen gameplay. i also love building 20 card deck, 3 Monster and S/T zones and the auto-duel for PVE contents (i specifically love building auto-duel decks).btw i also played alot of vanguard zero and a bit of shadowverse, but Duel links is still the game i prefer spending my time and money.
Im hyped for rush duel since its not that bad
I can't wait for rush duel I played the game and I love to draw 5 cards and summon alot
Maybe this is the decision of the investors with their money to make own things (which are not following the original idea) and saying "we wont make original cards, we make speed and rush duel cards for dummies, bc we want money". Its like the same Star Wars going to be with Disney. They said, we are the franchise now and want to write own stories (with no connection to the old roots) :|
Hopefully this convinces Konami to bring Rush over to the west.
It's been doubling the OCG's sale numbers in Japan for almost two whole years now, so it's sort of mindbending that they haven't done so already.
Hoping that there will be another currency for rush duel, if not, then it's a goodbye
Yeahhh for real
So they would put a new child game into duel links so they could recover some DL fans , i see.. very clever Konami but we only care about Duel links hope that will not effect on the game
I just learned about Rush Duel format from watching this video, and I am really interested in trying it out.
I havent played Yugioh in like 15 years but Rush Duel seems simple enough, and I really like the drawing to maximum hand size and infinite normal summons mechanics. Seems like a quick game of monster fighting.
I would prefer putting a rush duel mode in master duel with its own special master pack/secret packs/ranked duel/solo mode
I just want auto duel added to the normal gate duelists.
"This could kill yugioh!!"
* Proceeds to explain how rush duels is better *
Rush Duel seems to be a more streamlined, more simplified mode of the YuGiOh implementation to be honest. I am a casual player of Master Duel who has some grasp on mechanics of the duel with Chain Link Blocking, understanding synergies of decks and cards and such, a duel format without chain links, simplified summoning seems like a decent idea.
It also goes back to a few videos outlining their earning's call and one of their shareholders concerning that because of the format of the current YuGiOh system is too convoluted, too different than other formats like Master Duel vs TCG vs OCG and then Duel Links as well. This is probably their way of starting up of getting more people into the YuGiOh franchise. No more of the one-shot long ahh combo and just a battle of monsters between two players. I'm all for simplified mechanics of YuGiOh honestly and if this might help get new players into the game then, that's good. Not sure about retaining those players though because that's another problem altogether.
I think there's far too much hate for Rush Duels. I personally enjoy Rush Duels. I think people hate it because it doesn't have never ending special summon chains and ftk are less guaranteed. I personally especially like the draw turn mechanic. Drawing 1 card with no hand rarely turns a duel around, but drawing 5 could definitely turn a duel around.
I definitely have the odd feeling. That rush dueling will not be used as much. And might be just switched out for like event plays instead. At least I think that would be the better play like they did with turbo duels, But I am glad to see that. The speed dual and rush dual are separate.
If they just took ALL the ace card summoning animations, playable yugioh characters with their respective skills, as well as the ability to duel against nothing but Ai, in Duel Links/Speed Duel... and move it all into a playlist on Master Duel....
I'd be okay with mobile duel link's dying to Rush Duel.
rush duel looks interesting and i would have tried it if it was implemented in master duel rather than duel links
it's a 3v3 field it fits Duel Links way better than Master Duel
I just hope that gems bring alongside the new characters wonât be Rush duel exclusive gems, bc personally Iâm not interested in rush duel and I just want more gems for future decks in Speed duels.
i hated being forced to play new game mode so probably it's a no for me
Rush duels is too much childish
Theyâre trying to turn DL into a quick playing app like Marvel Snap
I've never played Duel Links but I'm really considering playing Duel Links just for Rush Duel mode
Plz don't
Im happy about this announcement that we get rush duel in a official TCG game, dont get me wrong ik that both edopro and ygo omega have all rush cards up to date and also the game mode for it but no one plays it in the unofficial sims or they just troll with normal decks when you ask for rush duels there. So finally we can play rush duel too even when DL will be far behind with cards and i hope it comes into the physical TCG too at one day.
I mean we do had the box chips in duel links, they would just need to make more boxes accessible, maybe same boxes as dream tickets or something
If duel links adds crafting, I will be very happy. The reason I prefer master duel, is because it is easier for a f2p player to build a deck.
I'm sick of Konami only caring about rush duels. Stop making rush duel animes. Make a new anime geared towards existing fans, and new ones will come. Better yet, continue GX or 5ds (I would say DM, but since Takahashi's passing I don't think that's right). Brand recognition would increase tremendously- one of the reasons why Pokemon started distancing itself (now tremendously) from yugioh back in the day. Better yet, sell the IP to Nintendo.
I disagree, With how great the art is for Rush Duel, the game itself is extremely fun, probably the most fun I have ever had playing a Yugioh Card Game. I dont get frustrated when I play the game, its an even playing field. And the excitement is there, Duel Links, you flip a coin and decide the winner right then and there, that is not Yugioh. That is gambling.
I don't want RUSH in duel links, I feel like its too late to add them, it feels like a game for speed duels. Like master duel it should be its own game
As a DL player I just want tag duels
đą Coincido con lo que dices, amigo. Me he dado cuenta que Konami estĂĄ actuando raro. Estos Ășltimos meses estĂĄ haciendo cosas aceleradas en "DL", asĂ como lo que hace en el juego fĂsico. OjalĂĄ no manden a la tumba el juego... Los pĂ©ndulos generaron un rechazo y varios jugadores se fueron, posiblemente hayan jugadores que se retiren por los "Rsh Duel"; ademĂĄs de que Konami quiere sacar mil cosas al mismo tiempo y en tiempos cada vez mĂĄs cortos
