Seriously, fix the draw rate of this game

[Kero Kero]

This is the starting hand you get in Duel Links more often than not with a Deck like this? How am I supposed to use any spells and traps effectively ?

Nice advertising for YGOPRO.

Sure, just focus on a single part where I offer an alternative more suited to how they play and ignore everything else I said. Typical behavior from you people

Konami will soon go to the court for abusing lootboxes, rigged match-making

Neither of these are valid court cases. Also this game does not have any lootboxes and even if the card pack system is seen as such, it still would be a fat chance that it would go through since it's a worldwide PvP game and there are too few regions that have outlawed lootboxes

Furthermore, the card packs from boxes are not being abused. The card quantity goes down as you invest more into the box, so you get a higher chance to obtain the card you want as the numbers get lower.
Lootboxes give one stagnant chance to get something cool. The card boxes here keep increasing that chance as more cards are pulled from it

For the record, your Gem-Knight deck is bad, there are too many magic/traps. The object is to fusion to FTK your opponent. Go to Duel Links Meta https://www.duellinksmeta.com/top-decks/june-2019/gem-knights/-ap-puzoor/ to copy-paste the updated version of Gem-Knights. Become a sheep and join the meta :]

I'll have you know I removed a few of them so I only had like 6 and I opened 4 duels straight with NO back row so that doesn't help either

Try 100th then you'll be a little warmer :P

There is no way Konami is rigging everyone's hands or your hands in PvP. If you've ever achieved KOG, then you should know that the majority of your rank-ups are from luck, being persistent, reading cards. It doesn't matter how knowledgeable or skilled you are, you can and will lose to RNG because that's the core nature of Duel Links.

I've seen people playing in that tier and they have all the same problems okay. Like I said I'm not the only one who notices this.

Secondly, ♥♥♥♥ happens. I am afraid to say you but, if you don´t like don´t play the game, if you feel it`s rigged then you are wasting your time playing though, have a good day.

This is what I told him on an earlier thread when he moaned about the metas in the KC Cup. He then moaned about how Casual players always get treated like ♥♥♥♥.

Well you wanna know why casuals get treated like ♥♥♥♥? And you wanna know why they don't affect the ban list? Because none of you are ever satisfied!

You all can't stand losing with your "far more skilled strats" and the fact that it has anything to do with your oppenent's deck contents is laughable. You stand on these high horses and go on about how you're "the true players" because you go your own way, yet when anything stronger beats you in a duel you proceed to blame everything but yourselves. It's never your fault for what you chose to play, it's always everyone else's for daring to play a faster paced deck in a worldwide PvP gamemode that rewards WINNING above all else! How dare we deal the finishing blow without waiting 30+ turns to draw what we need! HOW ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ DARE WE!?

Here's a little news flash: Konami doesn't moderate this forum. No developer is reading anything posted here. Your cries fall on deaf ears and only annoy the other users here who have potentially just as little of an impact as you do, and you are instigating arguments with no gain whatsoever. Take in mind both of these can be considered bannable offenses.

If you don't like what this game is doing and prefer slower paced duels, go play YGOPRO. Completely free, no in game purchases, no ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. You get everything with the 8000 LP + 5 card field format. Go play that if you want slower duels

Honestly I could write a Laundry list of all the things wrong with what you just said but I'll just start with this bit
"daring to play a faster paced deck in a worldwide PvP gamemode that rewards WINNING above all else! How dare we deal the finishing blow without waiting 30+ turns to draw what we need! HOW ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ DARE WE!?"

Certain people actually ENJOY using certain archetypes or get satisfaction out of a deck that isn't hand picked by someone's guide as the best thing since sliced bread, but because Konami doesn't understand what BALANCE means, they keep releasing sets of cards to make all these other archetypes better like Blue eyes, red eyes, ancient gears, Neos, never mind all the other broken archetypes that are around, they ignore the others some people will WANT to play as opposed to being TOLD what to play and HOW to play by elitist jack asses like YOU.

Our complaints have NOTHING to do with meta players using decks that are annoyingly powerful our problem is that there is NO way to combat this unless we play the same garbage they are. Until the meta is full of nothing but sheep trying to out Luck the other on turn 1. That isn't a game. All we are looking for is something for some OTHER archetypes to spring up and give us more options. or hell, ANY options.

And before you go on a tangent about "That's how the meta works, the best decks become popular, anti meta this, shifting power creep that, too many meta decks kills balance makes it impossible to know what's coming and play around it" I don't wanna hear it because it's all bull.

People act like I'm insulting them for playing what they want when I could care less, I just don't want to get destroyed because the other guy got "lucky" and I wasn't using this teeny little set of cards to stop them in a game of literal thousands. Despite what all your guide books tell you there ARE other ways to play this game and be effective when some automated / flawed system isn't shuffling badly.

But what I'm noticing is just a significant increase in the appearance rates of certain cards.

As an example, in the last 4 duels I played using gem knights I had Tourmaline in my opening and drew into it until my hand had nothing but that monster.

Or how I can have ONE copy of something and ALWAYS see it turn 1 but the 3 copy cards I have never show up. You have to be an oblivious idiot to not notice these things.

Even in the physical TCG, that's a risk you have to take when optimizing a deck.
Either prioritize your strength or cover up your weakness. And if you brick for whatever reason, then you brick. Nothing you can do about it.

Having to get a bad duel every now and then, whether it be bricking without getting to recover or your opponent pulling off their strategy befire you, is part of the game's punishment for not playing well

Ok, I won't quote every one of the messages you made that I reply to, so here goes:

The chance to draw 1 copy of a 3 of card in a 40 card deck is 40% (39.43% but let's just round up for clarity).

Duel Links has 20 cards as minimum, so assuming that the guy playing is using 3 copies in a 20 card deck, the chance to have at least 1 in your starting hand is around 80%.

Does that guarantee you the card? No. You can go 20 duels in a row without seeing the card, even at 99% chance to see it you can still go 20 in a row without it.

Now, you said a Red-Eyes opens fusion or a card that searches it, well, that can go from e copies to 6, near it guaranteeing it.

Now, you either accept that math is in their favor or provide proof other than "x youtuber said so and I believe it's true"

[android.exe]

its 'handicap' exists since 2016...
so many rage duels that i dont care anymore.. now i just laugh and start a new one

right today i lost to a guy who his exódia deck reached 3 cards and my hand dont draw a ♥♥♥♥♥ low level monster NOR red-eyes spell to pull off a monster

lmao

Just played someone with a THIRTY card Red eyes deck, he top decked the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ red eyes insight TWICE AND had the fusion card in his hand at the start of the game along with the trap that pretty much lets them never EVER die. You wanna say something about the draw rates of this game ? Try me. This is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

I mean, a 30 card deck is still much more consistent than a 40 card deck, which is the minimum for IRL, so if you can build a heavily consistent 40 card deck, you can make a consistent 30 card deck. If he had 3 Insight, 3 Fusion and 3 Return, it's kinda hard not to draw them, as 9 cards is almost 1/3 of his deck.

I really hate it when casuals that don't understand how consistency works call it cheating...
