Gem-Knight campaign ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.

[Frozium]

Just beaten the final duel of the Gem-Knight campaign using the loaner deck. The opponent is given a fully functional Gem-Knight deck capable of churning OTK after OTK without problem, with good staple cards such as Rescue Rabbit and Effect Veiler; on the other hand you're given some sort of retarded Gem-Knight-Constellar hybrid deck that bricks harder than a Monarch-Trickstar hybrid.
I had to repeat the duel like 8 times until the AI somehow bricked to win. The other duels were all Master Diamond OTK combos.
Anyone else feel that last duel was the greatest of ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ around? Been playing YGO for years, yet these kinds of videogame duels baffle me to no end.

[Captain Toast]

I have literally tried over 20 times to beat the final duel with this loaner deck, it is so stupid.
I'm glad I'm not the only person who realized this.

[Aldain]

Whoever designed that loaner deck needs psychiatric help, I swear it was designed by a psychopath.

Gem Knights laval was worse but I still managed to beat them in a few turns, now wait until you get Dinomist Zefra

[JuataLinuxGamer]

Because Konami can't make a duel UI that rivals a 8 years old, the game regularly handicaps you with a semi-unplayable bricky mess in a vain attempt to makes things balanced, and you've seen the result.

If you're good at Gem-Knight you can win that game somewhat consistently.

I got lucky on my 3rd attempt on that one, got combo into Pleiades turn 1, just bounced until I won, did not get Veiler'ed. Also I agree, Dinomist Zefra was one of the biggest pieces of garbage I have ever seen. A pre-synchro era Dark Magician deck would have been better.

World Chalice ones are the absolute worst in my opinion. For example:

1. Pure World Chalice deck, but you are missing one of your core Link-2 monsters, making it impossible for a 1 turn Ningiru

2. World Chalice monsters have low attack, and half the time computer stalls with World Legacy Shield

3. Fight a Knightmare Link deck using just vanilla monsters

Like actually wtf.

Those actually make sense because of the story, but I wish you actually had some cards that allow you to win with strategy against the Knightmares, instead of just hoping the opponent bricks.

Any person working on a game who prioritizes story before the actual gameplay needs to be fired.

Disagree. The best part in Master Duel is the Solo mode and the story.

I hope that Gem-Knights battle is the worst of solo. That battle was just throwing enough tries at it to finally get the cards I needed while the opponent bricked. Not fun, and definitely a surprise to see in solo. Could definitely put new Yu-Gi-Oh player off thinking they just aren't getting how to play.

[Old Man]

Pft,try playing links evolution.
The entire game is cheating/rigged decks.

The only one that's worse is Dinomist Zefra. That loaner deck is just awful, like...it doesn't even make any sense since the Zefra engine kills the Dinomist special summons...but the Zefra monsters suck so you're entirely reliant on your crappy extra deck options. Not only do you have to draw perfectly but the AI has to brick or you literally auto lose.

[Theuone]

Oh my glob same, that duel was heck ... only won cause the AI ended up with like triple's worth of Effect Veilers throughout the duel.

[⟢K◆t◈O❖m⟣]

Lmao the loaner decks are torture but do give you good ideas from watching AI deck beating you!!
