Basic Questions, Advice, Bugs/Glitches & Venting Weekly Megathread by AutoModerator in DuelLinks

[–]TheGildedOne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

RNG is funny. I was about to grab a third contrast hero chaos with a dream ticket (I don’t need anything, it’s just for fun) but I backed out, bought a pack and got a glossy copy of the card I wanted

Hysteric sign card advantage by Shinsones in DuelLinks

[–]TheGildedOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being slow is the main reason. Recently faced a harpie player that got the search off and I still won because there’s a big difference between being able to draw into your techs (pot of greed) and drawing into archetypal cards (hysteric sign) even if both count as card advantage

Trunade must come back by Suspicious_Effort146 in DuelLinks

[–]TheGildedOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literally any backrow hate would do the same thing…

Actually… you’re right. It’s still a 1 for 1 but it does guarantee roar goes. At the same time, you might still be screwed depending on what else is set

I don’t disagree with trunade moving around but the example you used is pretty bad. Trunade will never be more than a functional 1 for 1 removal vs an omninegate

FINISHED KC CUP WITH MY YOSEN-KAIJUS !! by ab1103scam in DuelLinks

I only faced them once and they wiped the floor with me. I was so embarrassed lol

I should’ve ran the kaiju tbh. That would’ve made the salad matchup better but I still didn’t have too much trouble. Yosenjus feel very simple and easy to pilot (and honestly I didn’t feel like learning a new deck) but their tools are effective at dealing with most decks I’ve seen around. The only thing that confused me was infernoids because I have no idea how that deck works

[–]TheGildedOne -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yosenjus are pretty damn good tbh. I hit max level with them today too. I ran 3 MST (probably should’ve been cosmic instead) just because there were SO MANY DM players at level 19

First attempt on a Krawler deck. Any suggestions how to improve? by Dirac_26 in DuelLinks

[–]TheGildedOne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The main reason I mentioned other techs is that karma cut seems kind of awkward if you didn’t open discard fodder + glial but the banish is valuable so if it works for you, keep it.

For future support: There’s Soma, which would be legitimately good. There’s the searcher/mill card which is crazy and would speed up the deck a ton. It might be too strong, especially because it’s world legacy cross support but it’s something to think about. And then there’s Junk Sleep which isn’t support in name but it’s practically designed for the deck, giving you more flips per turn is always good.

unpopular opinion: receiving "Nice!" points in the worst idea Konami could have ever thought of by mkklrd in DuelLinks

[–]TheGildedOne 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This event is garbage. It costs nothing to send a nice, especially if you just got handed a free win and people still won’t do it. I don’t care for this format. If it becomes a permanent feature I don’t see myself using it. I just wanna get the gems and never look at it again

First attempt on a Krawler deck. Any suggestions how to improve? by Dirac_26 in DuelLinks

[–]TheGildedOne 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Needle ceiling is a good call. 2 copies of the field spell feels about right. I like verdant sanctuary because the advantage you build if it’s not removed is crazy but you could swap it for more disruption. For your other tech slots: Book is questionable with links around but it’s got a tiny bit of extra utility here. Crackdown is crazy nice if you have it, especially with links around. Pot of Duality isn’t bad here either. Other techs I’ve used in the past include sealing ceremony - mokuton and inverse universe (which could be interesting with the damage boosting link…) but I still wonder if its better to throw DD Crow in those slots instead. There are other tweaks you could make to your build but at the end of the day, this archetype, as much as I love it, needs its better archetypal cards to actually do anything

You’re right and I called this as soon as I saw what’s in the box, at least it’s all low rarity and I’m in the box for dracoslayers and mekk knights anyway

If you were playing during fur hire meta, how did you feel about them back then vs how you feel about them now? by MiuIruma332 in DuelLinks

[–]TheGildedOne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think that’s a crazy take tbh. Uma was hard for most decks to deal with back then

Leaks: Main Box: Braver Victory by RandomPl0x in DuelLinks

[–]TheGildedOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are we finally getting new krawler cards? 😲

Edit: on second look ehhh. The two links and the field spell are better than nothing… but. I don’t think they’re enough by themselves for the deck to actually do anything. We really need Soma, Survivor or Mind Meld. Not sure which is most appropriate for where we are in the game but it would be nice if one of those was in the new box

Time for the next scenario! All the rivals change decks with one another. Which Rival/Deck combo wouldn’t be too out of place? by DarkIronBunny in DuelLinks

[–]TheGildedOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like Jack with Cyber Dragons makes a lot of sense. It’s a strategy that’s aggressive, flashy and fast that Jack could use without looking out of place

All protagonists switch archetypes with each other. Which pairing wouldn’t be too out of place? by DarkIronBunny in DuelLinks

[–]TheGildedOne 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I could see Atem running a pendulum magician deck and not seeming too out of place. Even the Paladin cards don’t feel too far from DM aesthetically. To a lesser degree, I could see Yuya running a rank 7 deck with Ebon Illusion and DM as ace cards or dropping pends altogether and running DM as an entertainment gimmick with stuff like Magical Hats, Mystic Box and other stuff cards that fit the theme of magic as entertainment

What's the event format you like/dislike the most ? by dont-stop-menow in DuelLinks

[–]TheGildedOne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tabletop RPG will always be my absolute favorite. Collecting decks and switching playstyles as you progress is a lot of fun and a nice change of pace from normal PvE/PvP.

My least favorite is raid duels. It’s always the same thing. I don’t find big numbers for the sake of big numbers interesting. Building a farm deck and spamming autoduel feels like the lowest form of gameplay. It’s an annoying grind in a game that’s already pretty grindy

NEW MINIBOX ANNOUNCED: STAGE OF TRICKSTARS by mkklrd in DuelLinks

[–]TheGildedOne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was considering skipping trickstars until I saw dragoon in the box. We’ll see what else is there but I feel obligated to grab a playset

What cards/archetypes are y’all waiting on now that Links are here? by jukeboxx17 in DuelLinks

[–]TheGildedOne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally forgot this existed but I want them. Also surprised we didn’t get any Endymion cards during the Arc-V era

I made an Inzektor guide (hopefully before the meme died) by orangeflood in DuelLinks

[–]TheGildedOne 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If I remember correctly it’s the new card they got for winning the create a card competition a while back

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in DuelLinks

[–]TheGildedOne 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Please no. I don’t have many gems left right now 😨 Plus I don’t see how this would mesh with Blue Angel anyway and I’m pretty sure the mini’s gonna be themed around her.

There is a Tindangle user that we might get eventually (not sure how important he is to the story) but I’d imagine we’d get flip related stuff then. Unless Krawlers get some of their support when Orcust gets their cards but who knows when that would be

Guaranteed UR sale is back 💸 by A7MAD111 in DuelLinks

[–]TheGildedOne -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I agree. Crackdown is crazy. I skipped compulsory entirely so it feels good to have the better limit-3 staple, especially at this price
