How to Play Yugioh Master Duel: The Beginner's Guide

[@okkydirgantaraohara126]

Thanks for this. I used to play Yu-Gi-Oh until 5Ds and holy smokes modern Yu-Gi-Oh feels overwhelming.

[@KushiKush]

Thanks, I'm glad I could help!

[@stefanjanevski4663]

IDEA : I think it would be great to start a new fresh account and play like a F2P player and do it in episodes so that new players when coming into the game can have a playlist of videos on how to start out their decks. Great video with very good information. EDIT : Decks for beginer yugioh players. With simple and easy to understand combos. ( idk if those exist im new to the game myself xD)

[@someball.]

This video is insanely good. You're on point and know what you're talking about, you literally show the most efficient way to do things as a beginner. I learned a lot. Thanks!

[@DragoWhatif-rt7yz]

Yeah but i think when you play solo tutorials 1 you should finish completely instead of just the 1st 4 because if you do you could get 2400 extra gems from the last 4 600 gems each and it will also teach beginners how to synchro, pendulum, xyz and link summon i watched the whole anime and even i didnt know how to link summon because i didn't watch yugioh vrains qnd sevens yet and 2.4k gems means almost 5 more structure decks

[@ayeimjustabackup]

i restarted my account after wasting my initial 1500 on card packs, just so i could follow this guide. I went with the Burning Spirits deck and god damn it is awesome!!! Every card in that deck is formulated to chain off of one another and I quickly learned the deck and I am WRECKING everyone I play. Thanks for the help!! I never learned yugioh passed once Yugi wasnt the main character so I was super behind and was getting molly whopped by everyones decks. This guide made it so I have an amazing deck to start off with and I can learn some of the new stuff! Although im still confused on what some of the stuff like link summon and synchro monsters and stuff like that are, but im learning! much appreciated

[@lancepost]

so as a brand new player that did the tutorial as i watched this it was very helpful as one who is now to the game and the whole Yugioh show/game. i use to get packs as a kid but just thought they were cool never played just liked them. i only really played Hearthstone and with the OW2 announcements i am here and going to stretch my wings a little. :D thanks for the Vid buddy

How’s it been working out? Just installed the game?

[@dontran391]

I am one of those "Old School" YuGiOh players (the one with cards that does NOT include Synchros, Xyzs, Links, & Pendulums). Back in the "Old School" days, those Nintendo Gameboy YuGiOh Games has the feature where the players can use the 8 digit codes on the bottom left of a physical YuGiOh card to unlock that particular card in the Videogames. My question would be does this Master Duel contains that same feature like those old Nintendo YuGiOh Gameboy Games where you can unlock cards by typing in the 8 Digit Card Code from a physical card?

[@KushiKush]

I honestly had no idea yugioh games in the past implemented that feature. Sadly newer yugioh games do not do this, I am sorry. But that is a very cool idea.

[@dontran391]

@@KushiKush Here's an example of a classic Yugioh Game that has the feature if adding cards to the game. This one in this video is from the classic year 2000 Nintendo Gameboy Game called YuGiOh Eternal Duelist Souls: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gZLblWCumbCgf5I you can see from the video, you can just input the 8 digit card password (where you notice those 8 digits are ALWAYS found on the bottom left of any physical yugioh card). Too Bad Master Duel does not have that adding physical cards features like those classic Nintendo Gameboy versions. Otherwise I can actually form my own deck by simply adding cards from my physical yugioh collection I have.

[@kaizammit]

I've not touched Yu-Gi-Oh since the Nintendo DS days, I played one game of the Duel Masters and got destroyed in two turns. Thanks to you and this video, I'll be able to play the game and hopefully enjoy it. Relive some of that nostalgia I have for Yu-Gi-Oh! Cheers fella. KZ

Save your gems trust I just started and if you know what archetype you want to play you can craft a ur or Sr card from the archetype then unlock secret packs that are only available for 24 hours after you unlock it so you'll want another of gems to get as many packs as possible

The zombie world and dragonmaids structure are also decent in their own right although with zombie you have to then build on top with other zombies archetypes to make it work the game does gives you a shirauni structure deck in the story which is a good start and it's a fun deck that can get you some wins. But avoid the cyberdarks utopia and ciphers structure decks they're garbage and too niche and the ultimate deck that you build with them it's not even worth it.

[@shayneworkman8690]

I once built a budget deck from the actual cards that was literally 98% deconstructed structure decks and in play testing, it beat the World Champion deck of 2007 8 out of 10 times. So.....Yeah, If I had anything to add, get some more structure decks before the bundles because you're gonna get loads of good cores to build different types of decks from them. I haven't started Master Duel yet.....BUT I'm really hoping my favorite card is still viable. Ryu Kokki.He was an underrated gem back in the day, for quick power at 2400 attack, nasty surprises because if there was a warrior or spell faster he battled with even when he lost, he destroyed them too, he was the equivalent of my Blue Eyes White Dragon.

[@KushiKush]

You might like a Deck Type called Kashtira, one of them is low rarity and 2800attack

Just started master duel because i liked duel links but for this one battle are so SLOW it’s impossible to play my enemy have infinity summon 10min to play 1 turn…

I noticed that too, for some reason right at the start the game at rookie rank puts you against high rank players. But once you get into bronze you play against more balanced back and forth. Regardless yeah that stuff happens a lot!

[@duckyfrogdogkim3546]

Hey kushikush, thanks for the easy to understand starter guide. i literally did everything you said in your videos and built a salamangreat budget deck, now im slowly building towards the expensive version of this deck. my question is im doing everything you said, dueling pass and got all the bundle deals. now i have 10k gems. what do i do now? what do i do with the gems? do i go buy packs? all i really need right now is more UR dust to make the rest of your higher end saladmangreat deck. thanks appreciate your videos and any advice u have for me

[@KushiKush]

You can try the solo campaign, you can get a good bit of XP from it.

[@duckyfrogdogkim3546]

@@KushiKush more specifically what do i do with the 10k gems, im at capacity cause i collected all of them from missions and the gems from my duel pass is filling in my gift mail box. theres time limit. whats the best way to spend gems to make space. should i buy secret 10 packs or buy all the structure decks or buy only the structure decks i want to play. im literally following your videos advice to the letter to avoid making mistakes and confusion.

[@KushiKush]

@@duckyfrogdogkim3546 I feel so bad, I just saw this comment. KZbin doesn't notify me for replays only new comments, sorry. I hope you are doing well, I would say, and I say this cause I have seen other Yu-Gi-Oh players do it. Is to leave your gem mission rewards that don't expire, like just don't touch them if you are full. Now on what to spend on, if you are very new and are not sure then I would buy all the bundle deals get all those cards, see if you pull any secret packs or cards that you like, and go and build that deck. It may not be the best deck, but if you genuinely enjoy it, it should be fun. If you just want to win, buy from the latest selection pack, since the newer cards are generally more powercrept, which just means the new cards are stronger then the older ones.

[@AstroVoid2001]

i litteraly pulled the winged dragon of ra in lightning storm bundle deal

[@blade8424]

I wish there was local for Switch consoles on the go so you won't have to add people to play them and play locally. I like the game. But can be competitive. Had some guy saw I was a "Beginner" status in my profile. And literally disconnected his Internet right away in a casual duel no less. Guess the guy was an elitist. :( Reason I like playing against the NPC. Hopefully Konami will add NPCs later down the line. Like Yami/Yugi, Kaiba, etc. Or am I better off playing with Legacy of the Duelist? Thanks. 🙏

[@gmaxdave6027]

This video has been helpful. What structure deck would you recommend now as I believe there are more options now? I just started playing today.

[@KushiKush]

Salamangreat is decently good out of the box with minimal crafts

[@DragoWhatif-rt7yz]

Actually about the solo tutorial i disagree i think they should do the whole thing because 4 of them give you 600 gems each thats 2400 gems and atleast 2,5 structure decks maxed out look at me i started today used my knowledge of yugioh and got 1 of each structure deck and maxed out my cypher dragon i removed most of the monsters and stuck with mainly monsters with cypher in their name so that i could get galaxy cypher dragon faster i can now get his within 1st or 2nd thrn aslong as i have 1 cypher dragon because of their effects like changing levels of other cypher monsters so that i can instantly xyz summon and i have 2 different cypher monsters that let me get him instantly and i have 3 copies each

[@Zak_How]

I played yugioh about 18 years ago. I've heard things have changed

[@Chapterhouse86]

I have played MTGO and MtG for years, and I just cant get into Mtg Arena because of how terrible the economy is, and how greedy Wotc is with how everything is designed. Master Duel actually sounds MUCH more player friendly than Arena, and I might check it out.

[@KushiKush]

I would say the big difference is being able to dismantle cards. That means that all your common and uncommons have an actual purpose, to be used to generate better cards. The thing with Magic I have found is the game has a lot of cards, and they reprint everyone and then, and rotate cards out. At least in standard. But I do like the amount of cards, both are. Fun in my opinion

I literally built the structure deck exactly how you showed with the missing cards cause I'm new and it says the deck is to small

[@KushiKush]

The game changes the amount of cards you can generally use in the deck when a new banlist came out. You can craft cards, I show that in the video. So you may need to craft some cards to make your deck a minimum of 40 cards. Most likely you have like 37 or somthing

[@itzyuzu97]

its all fun and stuff, but i bought either pendulum and burning spirits and i just keep on loosing, maybe im just bad at the game

[@itzyuzu97]

everyone does something with their decks, and i just do nothing but get hit

[@KushiKush]

@@itzyuzu97 okay so, the pendulum one is a little bit hard if you aren't sure how pendulums exactly work. It takes a bit to learn them, or you can watch combo guides on KZbin or wherever. But the main goal is to set up a disrupt, which just means if your opponent plays a card or summons a monster. You can stop it, or destroy it or negate it, disrupting your opponents plays. A lot of high level/skill Yu-Gi-Oh is stopping your opponent from playing funny enough. I would recommend with the salamngreat deck, even at it's cheapest budget version to try to end your turn with a link and either the negate anything trap, or the destroy opponents cards trap. Besides that, I really do hope you have fun and enjoy the game. Feel free to comment any questions I'll get back to you when I get the notification
