[@TheIrrelevantYT]

I can't see any longevity in Duel Links without a skill rework. None of the old skills from the earlier years of the game have seen the light of day since forever, and the new ones all are 3 uninterruptible cards on their own. Either make everything broken or nothing, Konami, choose a lane.

You can't even plan around them because there's nothing you can do about them.

The problem is not making all these skills once per duel. If its once per duel then its fair. Like seraph can keep pooping monsters every turn and heros can pull a poly up their ass once per turn

@@XavierZara I understand, but I think that’s when deck building comes into play. I’m OK with skills like shaddoll, shiranui, spirit grasp, salamandra, even if Barian was once per duel then sure. But a lot of these skills are once per turn and they give you too many cards from outside your deck. It’s not best of three but master dual ranked if you bricked you lose if you don’t have the hand traps you lose I feel like it should be for Duel Links too. Don’t just make them win the game because they press a yellow button.

I think as a general rule of thumb: Skills should at max have 2 effects. If a skill adds a card to your hand or plays a card to your field you should need to shuffle a card from your hand back in the deck.

[@khangduy8861]

one of the broken skill is add free card to hand :) and play free monster of field :(

[@SekilasFauna]

It depends on the card. If it's just a tuner or normal monster, then no trade is needed (except maybe can't attack the first turn). But, free armed dragon lv 10 than can be played the turn it is set is just broken. Even the card itself is broken.

[@JadenBRYT]

I never thought in years that HERO would be a ''Tier 0'' in duel links this skill is insane, I went back to playing duel links and I just couldn't believe it, I hate Konami for doing this kind of thing instead of doing something healthy like for example, bringing Shadow Mist and cross crusader, absolute Zero, and making a balanced skill for the omni HERO deck, instead she thinks that HERO players are just fans of the anime and bring these bizarre things with monsters that would be impossible to summon normally through skills, I say this because in the TCG she has the same thought instead of doing something decent, it's always something anime fan and the supports are always bad/Mid...

I reckon DL's numbers dropped to a certain extent because of the release of Pokémon Pocket. Of course skill and box releases are planned some months in advance, but now that the game is in an awful state and has dangerous competitors, Konami really should consider a way to revolutionize DL and win back whatever fanbase it had lost. And the first step would undoubtedly be to cut out all the nonsense that plagues the skills.

Lets be honest. The skills are what ruined this game and with thedirection its going, there is no saving it.

[@fugax_vulpes1797]

Most depressing thing is that, there are cystal beast and armed dragon skills, that they just give you setup to summon their boss monsters, you still have to put in effort for them, they just help you. And then there's Jaden that goes "yellow button gimme me boss monster haha" Imagine the pain going through hell to summon Lv10 and Rainbow Dragon just to see them play it for free 'cause skill said so.

[@tuz-1276]

I play Armed Dragons and I had a duel with this new hero skill. So my opponent goes first and he did their thing. Second turn I had to cope with the AD thunder LV10 given for free to my opponent, so I made a lot of plays, I ended with 3 AD on my field and my opponent with 400 life points remaining. So third turn, my opponent activated his skill; Armed Dragon LV10 for free; he destroyed all my board; direct attack, he won. Clearly fair.

[@crimsonreaper5293]

Yeah the new HERO skill is completely broken and I hope Konami nerfs it. To be fair, I'm not one that complains about new decks being strong (I mean I main Altergeists and that deck barely has half a skill going for it, with the best ones being Altergeist Overwrite, Level 5 Reload, or Avaricious Spellcraft), this new HERO skill ain't it chief. I'll list the problems with the HERO skill just so everyone can see how insanely unfair it is. 1. Free board wipe each turn → The skill cheats out a free Armed Dragon, which in of itself is already bad skill design. Armed Dragon, while being a very good boss monster, requires a LOT Of setup to get to the good Armed Dragon monsters so the skill cheating it out for no cost and turning it into either a free Raigeki (Armed Dragon Level 10) or a free card pop (Armed Dragon Thunder Level 10) is completely stupid. Did we not just consider Needle Ceiling too strong for the game by hitting it to a limit 3? Why are we bringing back full board wipes when Needle Ceiling is still hit? The Armed Dragon alone already forces out one of your opponent's interruptions, namely a backrow since to this day, backrow is still the main form of player interaction in Duel Links. So for the purposes of my explanation and to keep things simple, let's just focus on backrow. The Armed Dragon from the skill already consumed one of your opponent's backrow, but it gets worse. 2. Super Polymerization → Dragonic Contact searches the BEST board breaker in the game for no cost while also setting the Neos on your field, making Super Polymerization always live. Did we not just address Super Polymerization as being a problematic card in Predaplants? Why are we bringing Super Polymerization back for HEROES? I get it, Super Polymerization is a card played by Jaden in the anime, but there should be some hefty cost to searching it out instead of just adding it to your hand whenever you want. 3. Polymerization → Just for good measure, the skill also gives you Polymerization (from outside the deck), meaning you don't have to play it in a Fusion deck and can load up on searchers (Stratos), draw power (Liquid Soldier), or staples (limit 3 backrow/handtraps) instead. Or if not, you can use the Polymerization as discard fodder for Armed Dragon pops, which is stupid since Polymerization is a card played by Jaden in the anime. Discarding it for Armed Dragon pops is completely stupid. 4. Lack of answers → And then you figure out that nothing hard beats this deck except Non-Fusion Area or Droll & Lock Bird, both very obscure cards that do hit Dragonic Contact (and by extension Predaplants), but are completely useless if you aren't facing one of those decks. I'm not going to play Non-Fusion Area and lose to 18 Tri-Brigade Lyrilusc players in a row. So, yeah the new Dragonic HERO skill is completely broken in the amount of resources it generates and the Twitter post Loom showed is a testament to that. After expending THREE handtraps, The HERO player literally had ONE CARD in his hand, drew E Emergency Call for turn, and ended the turn with a full field just because the skill allows garbage like that to exist in Duel Links. For reference, here's the Twitter post that Loom was showcasing. x.com/mathnske/status/1875325751043747988 In the Twitter feed, mathnske is asking Konami why the Dragonic Contact skill can build a full field after three handtraps and one search off of Elemental Hero Stratos, which I honestly can't blame him for. It's a testament to how the game has devolved to YuGiOh Skill Links. I hate to say it, but if you aren't playing a deck that has a dedicated skill attached to it, you will struggle, especially now that the game's power level is currently at an all-time high. I also have a bit of an issue with Dragonmaids too because I don't think them getting the free Dragonmaid Downtime is fair, but that's a whole other can of worms. Dragonmaid Downtime is essentially backrow removal on a skill and in a game where backrow is the main form of player interaction, Dragonmaid forces a lot of non-games with the amount of advantage it generates and even more-so with Dragonmaid Downtime getting rid of the backrow in addition to the Dragonmaid Sheou omni negate, essentially meaning that's two thirds of your opponent's interruptions just gone. Alas, I feel like we've finally come to YuGiOh Skill Links where only decks that have broken skills can compete whereas every other deck that lacks a skill is currently either too weak to compete or completely unplayable, which is just sad to think about. Hopefully the next banlist addresses these problems and lowers the game's power level by a lot so other rogue decks can see the light of day and so the ladder isn't infested with Dragonic Contact HEROES and Dragonmaids. Invoked Shaddoll was also something I was looking forward to playing, but alas, HERO is just the better deck cause yellow button go brrrr.

[@CEOofPamonha]

The sad thing is that the new decks are genuinely good, Crystal Beasts can make an insane board, Dragonmaids are fun and quite strong, Invoked parasiting other decks like always and Tri-Brigade are just competent, and then we have hero, a deck that can be described as "Random Bullshit, go!"

I'll give you some context. Had to drop Synchron, a deck I genuinely love to pieces because of the stuff we already had, moved to Synchro Magician, then Speedroid support happened letting Yusei contribute with Stardust Warrior, so I planned to main Speedroid until Synchron got something new that was worthwhile, planned to KOG and profile it. Dragonic Contact won't let me do that, so now I actively have to build this to get this abysmal toxic hellhole of a month over with. Think about that for a moment.

As someone who loves elemental heroes this skill really ruins the fun. They are ruining the good name of heroes and ruining using Jaden by making these autopilot skills.

I know duel links selling point was skills but this is being taken too far at this point. The skill should not play the game for you.

[@BGLoscar]

I remember when some people, including myself, were complaining about Destiny Draw because of how busted it is, then Konami did not do anything directly to it. Instead, they created busted skills, so people would not play DDraw anymore. They killed the skill, not because they nerfed it, they killed it by introducing more busted skills aka powercreep. Instead of nerfing these new broken skills, they are hitting the cards instead. This is why I am abusing predaplants. There are no other viable decks to play with the same power level. So, I will abuse it until Konami nerfs it. Sad state.

If you're not playing one of the top 3 meta decks, you might as well just lay your hand on your deck turn 1 if your opponent is. Balance does not exist.

Any skill that adds super poly to hand should not be a thing. There’s a reason it was banned for so long and people want it banned again. Card literally win games if you can’t make a board that can survive through it which a majority of decks in duel links cannot due to just how the format is.

[@roux19120]

With the new strucuture deck it will be the new blue eyes in ranked

[@LETMECOOKBROO]

And here I am still chilling with my BE battle chronicle.

[@yutoduellinks6671]

Not playing the skill until the new hero cards come out because at that point that’s when the deck really becomes fun

[@ethanadler3600]

I clicked on this thinking it was gonna be about the Odd Eyes Rebellion skill XD

[@decemberNicholas]

Here's a new skill. Instant win if your opponent use these list of skill: "insert broken predaplant, hero, etc skill"

[@dantesm1222]

Also with this ftk burn shit with the new dragon draw skill I'm pretty done with the braindead press button get 6 cards from outside deck trash

[@Linkirby]

This is why Im Able to tolerate matter duel more than duel links. Cause the skills just end up playing the game for you

[@AZ-rl7pg]

Meanwhile, we still have Spiral sitting around with a limit 2 still, no skill, 2 SRs and no one playing it. Literally just give us some kind of Umi consistency skill.

[@ZJasmineDragon]

Ive said it from the start, but none of these auto play skills are interesting... and I get that you should get something good if youre gonna get hard locked into a type, but that good thing can just be adding the rare of limited cards to deck. Getting your entire hero suite added to your ED would be incredible, an extra copy of some of the fusions would be great, a skill that auto plays the game for you is so boring

[@smatrai]

Bro its like Tenpai Dragon in Duel links its so atrocious. Activate your 3 hts use your techs summon your Paidra/Chundra/Activate Kaimen/Summoning and just win lol. Instead of paidra just use stratos

[@Jiiveszs]

i hate the elemental hero skills because i love heroes and i want to play omni heroes not fucking e hero + random anime cards. with extra cards omni hero could hold its own against the meta without a dedicated skill. but now us hero players get shit on every 2 seconds because konami cant just give omni hero support instead of e hero anime garbage

[@ironsam955]

Could be a Konami strategy to sell impermanence in the new selection box, either that or they simply are brain dead.

[@andrewrowland1989]

When any other archetype gets great support: “Oh wow! This deck is top tier!! Everybody should play it!” When HEROES get better support: “NOOOOOOOO!!! HEROES SHOULD NEVER EVER BE A TOP DECK!! HOW COULD YOU KONAMI!!

[@Haushinka0718]

Maybe it's Konami's idea to overpower the anime decks so they can bring the nostalgic players back who love all those decks. Problem is they lose part of their current playerbase with it because they are not fun to play against.

[@daviddave5092]

What's worse is it WILL get worse no matter how much we players complain. I like YGO but I hate this game sometimes

[@christopherpdavis]

I feel like skills in duel links have changed from "if we do this, we can make this anime deck competitive" to "every hand makes the same combo. Enjoy this until it gets banned next month in line with the new box"

[@hughjanusjr7957]

I easily made it to Kog last season with Ancient Warrriors Nowadays I’m fighting for my life.

[@Heckibrd]

Personally i think this skill pushes even more degenerate playstyles even further than what was shown. Other than special summon restriction theres no restriction on the skill. Floodgates and powerfull normal summons are completely unchecked with the deck backed up by insane staples.

[@caryg]

Rush duel skills are the example of the skills have to be

[@Bob-wr4vg]

Konami, you gave support for Zane, Jaden and Jesse. Please add Pile Armed Dragon to the upcoming Armed Neos structure deck. You can't give all of those guys good support without Chazzing it up

[@popsiclepop3815]

Normally i can't stand or disagree with rant videos but I'm with you on this one. Konami is ruining the duel experience with this skill and yhe preda skill from last yeae as well

[@makotoamamiya2442]

Were talking about a game that barley gives us actual brand new content and has had us go literally 2 months with no brand new content, character unlocks or boxes it's no wonder it sucks

[@runningoncylinders3829]

So we see some immediate issues: Once per duel needed, and Normal that Neos or anything else prior to Superpoly.
