As someone, who never played the physical game, only ever heard these "Horror stories about the legendary mirror" and who also never really got into a top tier deck before: This mirror certainly is an experience. It's confusing, but I can see the fun. Some of my highlights so far: - Time limit win while I also had like 3 seconds on the clock - Regularly forgetting whos turn it is - "Wait, why do I get another search? Where does this card/ effect come from?" - One duel pretty much revolved around my singular Shaddoll Beast that got milled and shuffled back like a dozen times in the span of 2 turns

@@jabermogwai5996 yeah, the traps also are a thing. I also often forget that they require a Tear on board or a card in hand. On the other side, I faced this one chaos pile that milled like 30 cards to end on Saryuja, Colossus (not linked), Snow in grave and a 4 mat Apollousa. Decent board with a few problems... It was turn 2, but for some reason he decided to not attack over my two (flipped down) fusion monsters. He also kinda ignored the two Lost Winds that I got to clearly visible set during his turn. As the cherry on top, he shotgunned his Snow at the beginning of my turn.

[@moonjelly5]

I can testify as a relative newcomer attempting to play Lyrilusc and Ghoti that it was hellish. I'm certain my opponents could see every bit of joy leave my face when they explained how I could not Solemn their combo due to "Chain Links" and that their boss monster would resummon itself after I used my entire hand to kill it. Point matches helped but not fully as a). Some Tear players would also lose round one or go 1-1 leading you to face them and b). If there were any odd number of players, you would likely get a bye and not get to play (i.e., the reason you were there). The fish could at least play D shifter.
