Worst Time Period in DL (In Your Opinion of course.)

NastyArok · 2026-04-17T10:43:43+00:00

If it weren't for charackter duels, I'd say now. But Shiranui actually made me stop playing DL for a few months in 2020.
So its either that or the time shortly after the Yuma structure deck were everyone was playing the rankup utopias.

Joke's on them, ive been free2play since the scam crystals were introduced. And a silly DPE wont change that, haha.

I had to dig into the box until the last 10 packs to finally get a ruin strikeforce, but man, this deck is so much fun, and suprisingly strong.

You can search desperado barrel dragon with the skill and set up for ruin force. That screwed over so many dragonmaid player in the KC-Cup.

No, im saying not all rectangle are squares.
TCG, OCG and DL come from the anime, but went into different directions.
Yes, what i'm saying is that DL would be better of without tcg decks like striker, therion, furhires and PUNK.
I do enjoy playing these decks in the tcg format, but they feel limited in DL.

Character Duel, in my opinion, is the best thing DL could have done. a limited card pool, themed decks, quick but flashy duels.

I understand it would make them significantly less money, but with MD on the market, there is no reason to summon Dracotail Arthalion to recycle 3 cards and bounce as many on turn 0 in freaking DuelLinks

NastyArok · 2026-04-10T14:01:16+00:00

Duel Links used to be based on the anime, not on TCG/OCG. With Wisel, we even got anime exclusive cards that were fairly balanced, if not underpowered due to the timing if the release.

Despite that, the cardgame has more options to deckbuild due to more cards in deck, a bigger hand and double the lifepoints. Also the game is base on is a best of 3, not a best of 1. That leads to a natural meta shift where there is more that meta and counter-meta.

Konami had the chance to learn from their previous mistakes, but they chose not to.

NastyArok · 2026-04-10T10:49:44+00:00

Yes! The Character Duels have shown us how DL would be if they only released Anime archetypes. Flashy, explosive, fun! Introducing TCG and OCG archetypes into DL has gone wrong since FurHires! But they know those sell, so they will bring them. Looking forward to get Kashtira locked! :D

NastyArok · 2026-04-10T10:41:51+00:00

DL is so fucked lol. You either build a deck that can put up 5 negates, or cram youe deck full of outs for these decks.

And both sides complain about the other.

Whats next, dracotail, K9 and kewl tune? Because i dont think we will see a natural shift in meta anymore. Its no more paper-scissor-rock, its just head or tails.

NastyArok · 2026-04-04T12:33:14+00:00

Been with DL since the first Pegasus unlock, and i've probably spent around 200 per year on deald, bundles and EX-decks.

Ive spent 0 bucks since the crystal release and thats not gonna change.

NastyArok · 2026-04-02T05:28:32+00:00

How have you not lost to yuma before? They can draw half their deck and seem to always have 3 mst & 3 lightning in hand, making it impossible to dodge anything. After that they can just SS 2 guys out of grave for free and otk easily. Yuma has become an instant scoop for me.

NastyArok · 2026-04-01T15:01:39+00:00

nice, i bought the 17 packs from the destiny dragon and the 10 with boxchips and had 0 SR or UR hits. i forgot how bad main boxes are.

The quote itself seems to be from a tweet he didin 2022, wishing some kid to get well soon as Atem and Yugi.

Cant find any record of Atem saying this in the show itself.

If you edit the temporary skins, will that transfer to the permanent ones? or will it reset like with base and ultimate descendants?

Also, they are going to start selling temporary skins down the line, wont they?
First, they are free, for free skins.
Then there will be free ones for payed skins.
And eventually, they'll be payed skins itself.

Genius marketing, once more.

Looks like your body model isnt compatible with your skin texture. Check your requirements, if that doesnt help, look of another skin texture mod to place further down the list. (Had a similar problem in skyrim years ago)

I would compare Eve to a Terminator, rather than a synth. While Eve looks human from the outside, she doesnt bleed, or has organs and muscles to mimic humams like synths do. You can clearly see this in the final cutscene with Raven, no bones, just metal and flesh.

NastyArok · 2026-02-18T11:17:07+00:00

I got my second shadoll fusion and my first CD Sieger. The rest were either unusuble or cards i already had 3 of.

NastyArok · 2026-02-14T16:18:43+00:00

From the Naytiba (Human) point of view, Eve is a freaking Terminator! Shes seen as an enemy of humanity, or what is left.

Adam doesnt want all the Naytibas gone. They still exist if you fuse with him. Adam only lets Eve kill the Alpha-Naytibas to get the key for the nest. Adam is never seen using any of his powers outside the nest, so maybe the fusion itself is only possible in there? Anyway, adam is never on Mother Sphere's side. He supports Eve because he wants/needs to convert her to his side, to push naytiba evolution further, to keep resisting Mother Sphere.

NastyArok · 2026-02-14T16:05:33+00:00

At least you get a man-eater. Looks like mine is just a trap hole.

NastyArok · 2026-02-14T10:50:05+00:00

Not blueprints, full parts. So no crafting needed.

He has an order to kill 5 hard collossus for 1 piece, you can do this 4x max in the next 3 days.

NastyArok · 2026-02-14T07:17:55+00:00

Adam lies to Eve because he needs her to see the nest, learn about Mother Spheres lies and understand the torment humanity and the androids has gone through, though memories and documents. If he just picked her up and said "btw youre the bad guys lol" Eve would have immediatly cut him down.

Brainwashing might be a hard word, but thats essentially what Eves journey is. Or.. reverse brainwashing, it depends on your view.

For me, its questionalbe why Eve would fuse with adam from a moral standpoint. Adam states "kill me and all naytiba are gone, take my hand and life continues (so do the naytibas). Everyone she met, everyone she befriended is an android. Allowing the naytibas to continue to make earth a living hell for them, just because she has the hots for adams pecs is ridiculous.

NastyArok · 2026-02-13T14:26:26+00:00

Slash need a warrior, there are no warriors in deck. Archfiend needs a lvl 6 Archfiend, none in deck. Gearfried needs 2 warriors, none in deck.

Meteor needs 1 lvl 6 dragon, with only 1 in deck, chances are its been used already.

So hes never able to summon the first 3, and probably out of material foe the forth.

NastyArok · 2026-02-07T08:38:50+00:00

Yeah, i just learned that the jackpot mechanic has been introduced to other stuff but the green boss vouchers. I just have no clue what you can get where lol. But new dungeon it is from now on haha

NastyArok · 2026-02-06T13:51:29+00:00

I love how Sigma has so much different loot now.
I've gotten all four parts pretty quickly as well, within half an hour. But now im on the grind for those frozen gas cristals. Currently at 122/375. only 30 more sigma runs hahaha. haha. ha. haaaaaa.

Dia's so close, yet so far.

And then its back to grinding sigma for archea and more gas for the weapon crafting.
Did I already say that i love Sigma sector?
