I'm surprised this game has so many people playing it.

Console players can ignore this, but IF you have a PC, my GOD just download YGO Omega. Play YGO Omega..

Unless you enjoy how SLOW Master Duel is or the different Ban list why do people play this..? Please value your time/money more. Download YGO Omega. You'll thank me later. Again, ignore this if you play on console. I see that 14,000 of you playing on Steam. TF are you playing this for when stuff like YGO Omega exists?? I am genuinely curious. YGO Omega is completely free and you can play with friends and all that. They even have Tag Team duels.

Time to give this game less of your money/time and go play YGO Omega or at least give a reason why you still continue to play this dog water over better fan made stuff...

does ygo omega have a ranked or queue system to just press play and u get matched with someone? masterduel lately isnt working for me most of the day (perma lag/disconnect) so i might give ygo omega a try :)

YES IT DOES! Rank/Unranked/Tag You name it! Quite a bit of stuff I haven't even messed with as well. Speed Dueling. Different formats. Multiple custom options so you can play the way you want and even make your own custom duel settings. It's all there.

I don't pay any money into MD. Haven't in years. I have Omega, but I haven't played it in a few weeks. The timer settings are ATROCIOUS. I get slow played almost every other game. Especially in ranked.

Tbh I wouldn't mind playing Omega more, but they gotta fix that timer. The banlist is SOOOO MUCH BETTER in the TCG then MD. No Lacrima freely extending to infinity and beyond. Phantom & Reasoning are at 1. It even has some animations. Its not bad, though u will need to make a couple of setting changes, it is a good sim and plenty of players to match with.

Just need to fix that timer man & I am there.

So once again, this is the official client for alternative ways to play competitive. While it doesn't seem like it cus konami doesn't particularly reward anything, but ranking high, doing good in the DCs and participating in the tournaments *DOES* affect your konami standing at a competitive level.

If you just want to play yugioh, sure, other things are better. If you want to be recognized as a top player and take a shot at championships, this is the only way outside of going to YCS/Qualifiers in person.

I'll put a good word in and see what if I can get anything moving. I know there has for sure been recent discussion on this on the Omega Discord server.

I'll throw the link up here for anyone that wants or would like to take a look at what Omega offers that Master Duel simply doesn't and more than likely, never will.

TCG doesn't have Kitkallos.

What else needs to be said?

generally because as much as I don't like maxx c, I prefer the way MD handles it's banlist compared to the TCG. I do use edopro sometimes tho when I want to try out newly revealed cards like the Yummy ones.

Great to hear! The thing that always puts me off about Master Duel is that damn animation speed. Like I have stuff to do. Not even options to make stuff faster or anything? YGO Omega also has the floating monster images above cards when in play. Very aesthetically pleasing for casual Yugioh fans.

It feels like a good amount of people playing Master Duel simply don't know that stuff like YGO Omega exists, so here I am seeing if that gut feeling is true or not. :) I appreciate all the comments!

Appreciated.

I see that poll. I voted yes and 80% agree, so I at-least know I am not the only one. Honestly though I feel 45 minutes is still too long. Some of the more toxic players have figured out how to maximize the 15 second abuse. They literally take 10 minutes to resolve Ext into Sword add Ice. It really is, maddening....

The timer is actually one of the best selling points for MD. While I can see the 5 minute gain 30 seconds each turn being too limiting for some, gaining ALL the time back after your turn is insanity. I still think Omega needs to go for something similar to this.

Maybe 5 or 6 minute timers, gain 2 minutes back max? I don't think that is too limiting. The only deck hurt by this is 6 Samurai & I'm NGL. IDFC.

I spend no money in this game and yet could craft 20+ decks out of free gems.

You can just turn animations off. You can enable animations to only show once. You got all the tools if you care to look for it.

No you misunderstand... The general animation time of simply drawing and placing cards is too slow for my tastes. It starts at the basic game stuff, which you cannot speed up. Master Duel is as slow as a sloth taking a dump in comparison to even the older Yugioh GBA games... And don't get me started on the constant chain animation/text waste of time.. I could fall asleep during some of those chain 4 links.. xD

Omega looks and feels awful. The only realistic advantages it has is being up to date on the current TCG format and having all cards available at once. Both of which are subjective points as to whether they are even advantages or not - MD having its own unique formats instead of being a rerun of OCG is a big draw for many people. Same thing with earning and collecting cards. Besides those, this is the official simulator with constant support and easily the best/smoothest gameplay by a mile. It's the most watchable too, there's a reason that even most yugitubers will go out of their way to play on MD if at all possible for what they are doing
