You cannot link a device with progress on it. Tranferring data should've been the first thing you do when you open the app on your phone.

Actually I believe you can. I had progress on my steam account then link it to my ps4 account.

Make an account link. Link Id to mobile. Then link Id to steam. That's what I basically did.

I already had a steam account without an id. I created an id then 1st connect my id to my steam account. 2nd I log onto the ps4 and linked my id to that platform.

Yeah if you link the ID from the start it will data transfer but if you hadn't at the start won't work.

iirc you can't transfer data to Steam if your Master Duel Steam account has an existing progress already, because there would be a "This account has pre-existing data" popup or something if you tried to data transfer.

Only way I see it is to make a new Steam account then transfer your mobile data to that account via the title screen. CMIIW

Ok I'm a bit confused. I had existing progress on the steam account and no ID. Then I made an id.
1. I login to steam add my id
2. I login in to the ps4 and add my id

I didn't lose nothing and my data transfered over from my steam > ps4. So what is this 'existing progress already'.

{LINK REMOVED}

I once tried to switch between Konami ID on my Steam MD, but the game wouldn't let me and it popped up that error. Though, I guess I can infer that the error might be because of the Konami ID link itself rather than the non-linked Steam account that has an existing progress.

Or it might already be tweaked. Haven't tried any data transfer since early February.

Edit: Ah dang, my link to an article got removed. You can Google "pre-existing account master duel" to know what I'm talking about.

Thanks. I just login MD and it does say that. Don't know why they set it up like that.
