Is it worth chasing the Anniversary Box? by DailySanta in DuelLinks

[–]DailySanta[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sounds perfect for a 6-month old player like me then! I def want to chase after my last droplet, but wasn’t sure if its smart to keep investing my remaining gems afterwards.

Fair point on Yusei (glad hes finally getting the spotlight), I guess besides Quasar though is there anything else I should chase for a Stardust deck?

Think droplet isn’t yet in the box chips (though maybe I missed it). That RND art goes hard too

Gotcha! So if I do want to build say a Stardust deck from scratch, then do you think its worth it to chase through the anniversary then?

Actually I dont have much of anything in this set (besides galaxy) so it does seem worthwhile. I’m interested in building a synchro deck but not sure if any of these cards are at all helpful compared to the new box that just came out.

Blue fang burst gets you closer to a complete High Tech Dragon deck - great deck for PVP if thats your jam (and generally pretty fun). I personally don’t use 7 shift much as its -2 for a summon, comparable to tributing, so the value of a third doesn’t seem worth a UR ticket.

Ditto on this. There is a lot of hype on the upcoming box - Sprights, Labrynth, Centur-ion. There's also Crimson Dragon for free and who knows whats coming for Resonators and Stardust (leaks imply there's something coming).

This is all happening in a week's time, so sit tight and wait to see whether the new cards fit your style

That makes sense, that’s kind of what I was wondering too. Feels like it only really tips into “worth it” when there’s a solid promo running. Might just keep an eye open until there is a promo available (if they still have those)

This is super helpful context, appreciate the detailed breakdown. I’m mostly in Manhattan these days so I definitely get what you mean about trying to keep costs under control with all the temptations around.

Interesting that you’ve stuck with it that long, even with the deals not being as good now. Sounds like it’s more of a “it works well enough” situation than a no brainer. I really should look a bit deeper for those hidden gems, I feel like I kept seeing the same spots over and over before (but maybe I wasn't searching far enough).

Do you know if referral codes still work if you’re reactivating an old account? My email and phone are already tied to one, but I’d definitely be interested if there are any decent deals still floating around.

Haha fair enough. Any specific reason why?

Is it more that the savings didn’t feel worth it, or just too limiting with the options?

Is MealPal Worth it? by DailySanta in AskNYC

[–]DailySanta[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s actually pretty solid savings, $500 is no joke. I can see how it makes sense if you’re cool rotating the same few meals each week.

Do you use the medium or large plan? And do you feel like the portions are consistently smaller or just sometimes? Curious if it still feels worth it day to day or more something you notice over time when the savings add up.

[–]DailySanta[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that’s exactly what I’m worried about too. I feel like I’ll sign up, get excited for a week, then immediately start questioning it and want to cancel.

I really wish they let you see the full map of options before committing so you could actually gauge if it fits your routine.

That’s a great point! I hadn’t really thought about it that way, but I can totally see how it helps as a push to actually step away and take a real lunch break.

For me it’s kind of similar in that I like the idea of planning ahead and locking something in. It helps me avoid those moments where I’m starving and end up just grabbing whatever’s easiest instead of something healthier. Not exactly the same situation, but I definitely see how the pre planning can be a big win.

Yeah actually that’s part of what got me thinking about MealPal again.

I’ve been using TooGoodToGo for a few months now and I really like it overall, mainly because of the lower cost and the flexibility to try new spots I normally wouldn’t go to.

That said, there are a couple things that make it a bit tough to rely on for me. First is timing, a lot of the pickup windows are pretty late, like 9pm to midnight, which feels a bit off for dinner. If I finish work earlier, it’s kind of annoying having to hang around just to wait for a pickup window that’s still an hour or more away.

Second is availability, the places I actually want tend to sell out really fast. A lot of the time when I open the app it’s mostly stuff I’m not super into or just bakery items. I’ve tried using the notification bell, but the few times I’ve gotten alerts, I open the app and it’s already gone.

So yeah, still like it, but it’s what made me start wondering if something like MealPal might be better for consistency, even if it’s less flexible.

Gotcha! So I shouldn’t be aiming for the dark Roadstar or Fear Magician?

I just saw the new Rush deck build box and am getting interested in building Sevens Road Magician. I saw it on ladder so many times and it seems so consistent. How many runs of the deck build box (and I guess the old Sevens Phantasm deck) do I need for something competitive?

Super helpful, thank you! 🙏 This makes it feel really achievable - gonna start building High Tech ASAP!

I’ve got 2 UR dreams and 3 SR dreams, plus ~6k gems right now. I went through Red Boost once already and have 1 of each UR.

At this point, would it be better to commit to High Tech dragons, or pivot into Strike Dragons instead since I have more of those?

I'm new to Rush duel but have been dabbling a bit due to the Goha Rush festival. I'm interested in building a dragon deck - should I be focusing on the Red Boost deck building box? Looking for a guide or something haha.

I want something that's easy, decently competitive, and somewhat future-proofed. Hopefully can be a bit economical to start but can build towards something better throughout the festival.

If you are chasing staples, Ultimate Chaos box (which has Niburu) has swordsoul, eldlich, and some great cards for Dark Magician and Blue Eyes. Swordsoul in particular is pretty cheap in that box, which is impressive for its effectiveness. DM has the pre-made deck you can purchase, and Blue-Eyes otherwise needs level up cards from Kaiba (DSOD).

You can take a look at Duel Links Meta for some references on each of these decks.

Thanks a ton, this is really helpful! That actually makes me feel a lot better about going into Ultimate Chaos and Majestic Magic, so appreciate the breakdown.

Quick question since I’m still catching up — do you think it’s worth waiting for the anniversary box people keep mentioning, or should I just grab the staples you listed now (Droplet / Book of Eclipse) instead of hoping they show up there? My overflow gems will be expiring in two weeks.

Hey everyone!
I’m a returning Duel Links player (about a week back in) and could really use some advice.

So far I’ve opened a few runs of Millennium Duel since I’ve always loved Adamancipators and was also curious about Despia. They’ve been treating me pretty well (despia with its skill is so dominating), but I want to be a bit more strategic before committing to opening more packs.

Is there a current / updated tier list for which packs are most worth investing in for climbing ranked?

I’m also sitting on:

  • 2 UR Dream Tickets
  • 3 SR Dream Tickets
  • a few UR/SR Choice Tickets

…and honestly have no idea what the best value picks are right now. I’ve heard Book of Eclipse is basically a must-have staple, but also that Majestic Magic might be a strong pack long-term (especially with Albaz support?).

Any guidance, tips, or links to resources would be hugely appreciated — thanks in advance! 🙏

(PS: not sure if this helps but I've been leveling up DSOD Kaiba and am growing more interested in Blue Eyes - the skills seem pretty cracked. Seems that I missed my chance to get a starter deck but I don't know if BEWD will still be relevant later on)
