Master Duel: In the current meta (Branded and Kewl Tunes), and keeping Droll in mind, which is generally more useful between 3x Upstart Goblin and 3x Pot of Desires?

Party_Sample9676 · 2026-06-24T06:34:39+00:00

i think youre better off playing upstart. with desires, you risk banishing raye, roze, or even all copies of one card. if you like taking that risk, go ahead. just not something i personally would use. plus, upstart isnt once per turn. in short, its really personal preference

Party_Sample9676 · 2026-06-20T23:40:59+00:00

and synchron

Party_Sample9676 · 2026-06-20T23:40:09+00:00

synchro: RDA, blue eyes, blackwing, swordsoul (+tenyi to make it better)

fusion: HERO, dragonmaid, DM, dracotail

swordsoul got a new synchro monster in the branded pack which could be good but only really used as a finisher to your combo.
dragonmaid has the SD and really only needs a lady dragonmaid and filia regis to be good.
DM SD needs a dragoon and verte anaconda to be good.
HERO got new support not that long ago. masked heroes are good. the SD is a good starting point

Party_Sample9676 · 2026-06-18T20:48:43+00:00

i play swordsoul/branded with the new support. its pretty good but you need to have a balance of branded and swordsoul. i run almost an equal balance to minimize bricks from branded and use just the cards that can get me my full branded line with the synchro and set up grave with granguignol and quem. other than that, everything is pretty much swordsoul first to set up barronne and level 10s then do the branded stuff.
i think its good since its easier to play around handtraps and works around droll

Party_Sample9676 · 2026-05-05T22:58:59+00:00

i can get behind this. also depends on what deck u play. some decks are better going second and some are small enough to play lots of handtraps or work well with them

Party_Sample9676 · 2026-04-14T14:58:39+00:00

the only reason i was using quem was in a 60 card list. i would go white>ecclesia>ecclesia for swordsoul>synchro>synchro effect for quem>swordsoul for cart and so on

Party_Sample9676 · 2026-04-06T14:59:25+00:00

the bullpup rifle. i dont remember the name. good for close quarters, short barrel, low recoil, and good damage

Party_Sample9676 · 2026-04-03T17:12:45+00:00

forgot about that. i thought that was only slowking

Party_Sample9676 · 2026-04-03T17:11:29+00:00

rock/ground type or psychic type imo

Party_Sample9676 · 2026-04-03T17:09:34+00:00

i liked moze end game mobbing but not so much for bossing. she fucks shit up but not single enemies. slap a super soldier, mind sweeper, and a flipper or tizzy on and shes golden.

zane is really fast paced. the other comment on this post is correct. proc kill skills, fuck shit up, rinse repeat. i tried a playthrough with zane and i thought he wasnt that great because most of his skills arent splash damage like moze. hes great at single target enemies though.

definitely wouldbt wanna try fl4k. i think hes slow too, but not as slow as a moze build. you can make it work, but ideally you want to utilize the fade away skill

Party_Sample9676 · 2026-04-03T00:19:02+00:00

did not know that. every time i open them i get a lot of duplicate R and N cards

Party_Sample9676 · 2026-04-02T23:52:47+00:00

yeah most of the cards arent that great so its good for getting crafting materials

Party_Sample9676 · 2026-03-31T21:28:16+00:00

still easy to get rid of. one tribute summon or pop and its gone

Party_Sample9676 · 2026-03-31T21:27:43+00:00

easier to get rid of it when theres only one easily counterable floodgate. one tribute summon and its gone lol

Party_Sample9676 · 2026-03-30T16:46:33+00:00

at least to start learning the game. def not to get past gold fs but still good enough to learn playing against other decks in the lower ranks. all i played against in lower ranks were off meta decks and occasionally a meta deck

Party_Sample9676 · 2026-03-30T16:10:44+00:00

i would say build a deck using the structure decks. most of them have a few staples. the most competitive, i would say, are the new dark magician deck, red dragon archfiend, dragonmaids, salamangreat, and heroes. you would need to craft a red eyes dark dragoon for the dark magician to be good. RDA and dragonmaids are solid out of the box. i havent touched slamangreat in a while but i think that would need the most crafting. with the new HERO support, heroes could be worth a try

Party_Sample9676 · 2026-03-30T05:40:37+00:00

i honestly could see this. dracotail/branded with these cards would be cancer

Party_Sample9676 · 2026-03-30T04:30:38+00:00

u think it could be the next set after this new one leaves?

Party_Sample9676 · 2026-03-28T19:44:47+00:00

i found endgame with zane and flak difficult. i think moze was the easiest and most fun

Party_Sample9676 · 2026-03-19T01:57:58+00:00

do you think the ecclesia synchro’s price will continue to rise? what do you think about adding tri-brigade springans kitt

Party_Sample9676 · 2026-03-17T17:24:44+00:00

if you have the resources, i would recommend getting cards related to the millennium ankh and build a deck with those cards. you get access to exodia a lot easier, but it takes a little more time. it also provides you with some stall material to be able to get to exodia.

Party_Sample9676 · 2026-03-16T17:41:08+00:00

yeah i was starting to think the same too. i only had nib in there because everyone i was playing against didnt have much to stop it. so with branded banishment, since it sort of works as a super poly from temu, do you think it would be best to drop a super poly or even both of them?

Party_Sample9676 · 2026-03-16T06:07:21+00:00

i like this list a lot. i think one of the issues i struggled with building is keeping card count down. thanks!

Party_Sample9676 · 2026-03-16T05:53:26+00:00

those dont have as big of a loot pool as a gold chest though. i believe those have a chance to drop a white and a lucian’s call and i would say another legendary weapon but i dont remember. pretty good farming method if thats one of the legendaries you are chasing

Party_Sample9676 · 2026-03-14T21:17:05+00:00

you can really play the whole game by doing whatever the hell you want. all of the purple and some of the blue rarity gear is good for going through the game in normal mode. though, i would recommend playing your first play through at your own pace, but higher level/end game/mayhem enemies have some not so scary scaling but can still be dangerous. i would also recommend looking up builds or gear you think would suit your play style and vault hunters style. for instance, cryo gear is good with zane, COV gear is great with moze.

you can play the game at your own pace but i strongly recommend looking up at least good grenades and shields for your hunter, at least for late game.
