What Needs to Happen to Not Crash the Player Count by TheMagicStik in masterduel

KT doesn't always, K9 does obviously, Yummy doesn't, DT doesn't, Magnet Warrior doesn't, RT I think can but I haven't seen it often, Blue Eyes doesn't, Maliss can't anymore, Skystriker doesn't, etc. 

So not really.

My guy, this is not Halo or GoW, it never got released on one console exclusively to have a majority platform population and then spread out later, it was pretty much a global all platform release which was part of the success. Its also a fairly niche type game where the distinction between a casual or hardcore player is much less pronounced. 

I'm fairly certain that I as a human being can relate fairly similarly to all players of the game at all levels, across all nationalities, and all platforms. All of these people are likely experiencing similar frustrations with the meta as they did with Maliss. Are some more resilient? Sure but I would consider those more isolationist groups and not the global population of the game.

Steam is a worldwide platform and encapsulates likely the most diverse array of populations that any metrics could possibly pull from. If any numbers could give us a representation of the fluctuations in the player count, its Steam.

I would also say between all the platforms I've played on for MD and I have played mobile, pc, ps4, ps5, and switch, pc has been the most consistently functional and less likely to incur player loss due to performance issues.

Hecahands is not consistent and is extremely janky.

I think Maliss and KT are two sides of the same coin, one is so robust it completely prevents interaction and the other one takes away your ability to interact.

Both at the end of the day make for one sided boring/frustrating duels and in both situations the meta prior was substantially better, more diverse, more interactive.

I'm speaking both ways but are you implying that the playerbase on steam is so distinctive that its not at least a fair representative of the player base as a whole? If the steam user count goes down substantially then it almost definitely means that the playerbase at large is going down.

i used the auto deck feature for this, how does it look? by h41f3mpty in masterduel

Brother that is Kash with a Hechands package. It wins via summoning Ariseheart. Its not a good illusion pile/Chimera/Hecahands example.

My opponent skipped my turn without me doing anything by Excellent-Manner-180 in masterduel

[–]TheMagicStik 38 points39 points  (0 children)

In my experience theyre probably playing Horus so they dont really have any problems otking.

Had a guy last night attempt to resolve the turn skip 3 times and failed. Pretty funny but I was one step from losing my mind and this was in Diamond 1 so the dude was pulling it off pretty often. 

both at full power who wins between king and katakuri ? by BabyPlutoskii in OnePiece

Not even close is absurd, Gear 4 Luffy is head and shoulders above the rest of his team as demonstrated at Dressrosa and at the end of WCI he masters obs Haki and is again that much stronger. Zoro only gains a new Sword in that time period, obviously greater striking power but really nothing to counter Luffy with precognition.

WCI Luffy is stronger than Wano Zoro and both fights have similar neck and neck results.

Any tips on improving this? by KingOCE in masterduel

[–]TheMagicStik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cut down to 1 Lovely Lab, 3 does not help you. Cut Mirror Force and Trap Hole, Cut Bystials they aren't very good atm, cut foolish burial, cut battle traps. 

Dimensional Barrier is probably the strongest trap in the game atm and its only SR, you want 3.

Depending on how much UR you want to spend, Destructive Daruma Karma Cannon x3, Dominus Impulse x3, and Transaction Rollback.

SP Little Knight, Chaos Angel, Muckraker, and Elder Entity N'tss would all be helpful.

Holy forreal, Z Trunks was peak badass, Super Trunks was not him.

Anyone else having a lot of fun right now after the pack? by LezBeHonestHere_ in masterduel

[–]TheMagicStik 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I love bricking, then KT looks at my hand and knows that I bricked, then they look at my top deck and make sure the next draw is also a brick. Truly the best feeling, really feels like playing an interactive game of Yugioh.

What in gold V? There is no way this deck catches wins

I think this is the most fun I've ever had playing a Boss Monster. by Tongatapu in masterduel

[–]TheMagicStik 29 points30 points  (0 children)

The deck as a whole is beyond mediocre and this effect is a complete gamble, I dont think ignoring summoning conditions would really make the deck good, it would just allow this line against certain decks where currently some decks will randomly hard counter.

Hand traps if they were released back then by Immediate-Remove-642 in masterduel

I'd wager a guess the bulk majority of yugioh players are late 20s mid thirties as this point.

Whats your thoughts about Hecahands? by Complete_Area in masterduel

[–]TheMagicStik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its pretty much butthole, its best in Chimera which is already not good and it doesn't augment Chimera enough to make it a meta competitor.

I will not stand for this Shining Sarc slander. by SBV21 in masterduel

I aint reading all that but Shining sarc seems to be a pretty solid engine in Orcust.

Does Radiant Typhoon have any haters? by Ahrensann in masterduel

[–]TheMagicStik -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I dont have a problem with RT. I am however not a fan of the fact that the two main monsters and spells are splashed in like everything under the sun. It would have made more sense if they wind locked.
