im not new but im not dedicated enough to the game to know the answer. Right now, when you look up “yugioh regionals” the BLZD season still comes up. CORI just began, so I suspect its to do with Worlds season beginning, likely a hiatus to let the pros focus on that or if there was another explanation.
Hey everyone. I was really into yugioh when I was younger and now im trying to get back into it. This time id actually like to try my hand at some local tournaments. My issue is that I dont have enough money to buy the newer meta cards but I do have a bunch of older cards. So im asking for someone or a couple of people to help me out and help me build a deck with what I have.
Often times when we see a deck that funtions in a unique or interesting way we'll say "It operates on a completely different axis than the rest of the decks in the format".
What are the various axes of play that a deck can operate on? These are the ones I've thought of, please add any more you can think of!
Tempo
Advantage
Interaction
Knowledge/Execution
The way it's worded I imagine it could but despite Stardust being such a common card in its time I swear I've never seen someone do that and it feel so ridiculous just thinking about it.
Can’t really find clarification on this. Is Konami still running side events at YCSs and regionals for Edison, goat, etc.? I know that they planned to switch time wizard to time travel like a year ago.. but what is the current status on if side events are actually running? Have heard mixed things online. Thanks!
Hi, I have played other tcg but I was looking to try yugioh cause I like the arts. I’ve seen there are these two precons that seems to be a good start, which is the best in your opinion? In the legendary modern deck, it would be better to focus on sky striker or mitsugiri? and which cards should I buy to upgrade each deck?
To be short, I only have one friend who plays this game IRL. He's really encouraged me to get into it (we've been playing online for the same length of time, so he isn't more experienced at the game just been playing paper a smidge longer).
These are the decks he plays.
Umi Stun. Enneacraft. Kashtira. Mimighoul. Lair of darkness (with all the virus cards).
That's a small sampling but uhh, we'll just say that all of these decks are extremely unfun to play against, like, completely miserable. He constantly talks to me about the game, always hyping up how I should/could build various decks, and then we play and it's just stun. Every time. He doesn't understand how this isn't fun for me, we're literally playing at home by ourselves with no stakes at all.
I also only have extremely budget decks - the legendary 5DS decks are 3 of my 4 and they are hardly even upgraded, like one or two newer support cards I've found in each deck.
Anyways, for this reason I find the game in the way I am able to play it completely miserable to play, and it's making me hate it entirely. I know this isn't really a question about the mechanics of the game, but if this is my reality it feels like I'm better off just not playing at all.
So I recently got back into Yu-Gi-Oh and I've been playing a Swordsoul deck on Masterduel, which I like, and I usually lose which is fair but sometimes I duel players who straight up negate everything I have, so at the end of the turn I have no cards in my hand and nothing on the field.
What can I do against players like that? Should I just switch decks? If you can't beat them, join them?
I don't want to play like that, I don't mind a bit of disruption, but straight up negating everything is annoying.

Trying to build deck but struggling against kt and elfnote. Planning in siding harmonia and saw vids saying harmonia is good into both deck I haven’t tested harmonia enough and just wanted to see if this is true. Is lava golem worth siding in this format and should I side it over harmonia?
After around 10 years i have decided to return to the game, but have no idea what deck to play.
I love strategies that end on big archetype boss monsters rather than generic staple bosses.
Since I'm returning I'd like a deck that doesn't bombard me with a million different combo lines but still has multiple ways to interact with the opponent. Basically what current deck would you suggest to a new/returning player with a budget of around 200 bucks.
Please no Sky Striker though, i really don't like the playstyle for some reason.
Thanks in advance! I really wanna get into it again.
So, I'm playing around with the ldr stuff, and I had a situation come up and I wasn't sure if I could actually do this or not.
So, the situation is I have skull archfiend of chaos, ldr, and two other cards in grave that aren't related to ldr. I wanted to use skull archfiend to return three cards to the bottom of the deck, but the only card that mentions ldr is ldr.
And going off of how Japan does their once per turn restrictions on things, they never actually name the card in those restrictions, it's always "you can only use the effect of this card's name once per turn."
So I figured that would apply to the TCG as well, since ocg tends to take precedent as far as proper text and naming and such goes. That's why the one power patron card specifically had to mention it excluded once per turn restrictions in effects.
So could I have actually done the play, or was I correct in my assumption that I'm not allowed to make that play because the card shouldn't actually mention the name?
Hey yall, I recently moved from a large metro politan area that had plenty of lgs to choose from, and in most of them, topping was always "profitable", this is my only experience of going to locals. I recently moved to a more suburban area that only has 1 lgs, and I went for the first time today. Entry free was 10$ (estimate, I'm not from the US) and I was hoping to at least get some CORI. I went 3-0 (store always stops after 3 rounds so they can close shop) and my prizing was 1 pack of RA04, 1 ots 29 and 2 ots 28. Some of the other prizing was the same ots packs but with Maze of Muertos or Crossover Breakers instead. I felt like we were just getting leftover stock as prizing...
I asked another player if it's always like that and he told me yeah and 1 pack of RA04 is 10$ so it's pretty good. This store had 20 players and nobody seemed to mind.
Maybe I'm spoiled but at my previous city topping would always get you a box or at least an amount of packs of the most recent set that would costs more than entry. Am I looking at the hobby the wrong way? Are yall's locals similar to mine's?
so by reading the cards the question is kinda self explanatory. heat wave says you cant normal or special effect monsters, and enneacrafts have an effect to special face-down. originally i thought the answer was clear: enneacrafts are special summoning, and you can’t legally special summon them unless you have a normal monster, and if you do, you can only special the normal monster. now, off some random bs that apparently works, the enneacraft effects count as “setting“ a card, as apparently those effects trigger the black nugget Expatisia (triggers when opponent activates an effect that would set a card).
so now my question is: are you just able to full combo with enneacraft under heat wave???
I am looking to see if there is any good synchro decks where I can run some of my favorite generic synchro monsters like Baronne, Chaos Angel, and Black Rose Dragon… I don’t have the biggest budget and i would hope to keep it less than $100… but i’m open to any recommendations, please and thank you!
Hey guys, wanted to go back yugioh with the goat format. Im a old School guy so, gimme a powerful Deck, not too much complicated, with no extra/side decks, not too much expensive, with famous Cards that I night have and very Fun to play. Thanks
I'm playing a Vylon deck on Tag Force 6, and Vylon Element isn't triggering when a Vylon equip spell is destroyed when its wielder is destroyed, which is the entire point of the card (outside of the infinite loop). The yugipedia tips page for Vylon Element even notes that this counts as destruction and is how the card is used.
Is the game just bugged? I know Vylon Element is bugged in Over the Nexus where it (the official in-game description is that it misses the "clock" but automoderator banned the phrase...), but in TF6 it just straight up doesn't trigger in the first place... I really wanted to play a Vylon deck in a 5Ds era game rather than have them be crushed in World Duel Carnival... it sucks if they're just bugged in both games.
Hi. This is a bit of a weird one.
The official Yu-Gi-Oh Tournament Policy states that when an uncontrolled infinite loop occurs, a judge is to be called so that they determine which card is the most responsible for the infinite loop and send it to the Graveyard.
If this happens while "Macro Cosmos" is face-up on the field, will the card chosen by the judge be sent to the GY (as it is stated in the Tournament Policy documentation) or will it be banished ?
Ive been playing eradicator epidemic virus in my doomz power patron deck but im noticing its too hard to setup so im looking for a deck that can possibly synergy this better , i know theres cards like trap trick but is there any decks that can do these cards better like dark magician , d/d/d , etc
My partner and I built an app for personal card collecting and tracking. It is less about tracking card value and more about seeing what cards you have, what archetypes cards belong to, and what packs carry the cards you are looking for.
We can’t justify paying for an Apple developer license to keep it on our phones for just the two of us. But, would there be interest from the community for this kind of thing?
Yugioh tends to be a more neglected TCG so would love to share a resource if it would help. We’d keep the app free and maybe have an option but us a coffee or something??
