Player rank distribution
Does anyone know how player ranks are distributed among players?(ex. top 3.2% are KoGs top 10% Legends etc.)
I recently got my KoG finally and now I am curious what top percentage I belong

waht deck u get kog with?
Why would you do a percentage system in a game where everybody has equal opportunity?

This isn't CS GO where progression matters on skill this is a card game where the luck of the draw matters

3x Chaos Magician
1x Gishki Chain(wish I had more of this)
3x Keeper of Dragon Magic
1x The dark - hex- Sealed Fusion
1x A/D Changer
3x Elemental HERO Neos

I think CS GO provides more equal opportunity than Duel Links because of donations not affecting your ranking, whereas in Duel Links after I bought Structure decks I speedran ladder into KoG within few days

Dude any F2P deck can make it just as much as a bought deck, plus everybody has the same access to that stuff

CS GO everything is skill based, all of your tools are behind a in game paywall that you need to win rounds for, if you suck you do not progress any farther, aka git gud

This game is a card game, the main system in place is a RNG coin toss followed by what hand or deck you are using. You can climb the ladder just as fast with a F2P deck, just look at the past decks, Fur Hire Six Samurai Sylvans all F2P and were the biggest threats. You do not give a game where luck of the draw exists a percentage based system since all you need is a competent meta deck or any other competent deck and some good luck. In CS GO you need to aim, manage your money, strategize with your team, actually work hard on 1 match that takes you roughly 30mins

Equal opportunity mean everybody has the same chance at the same success, there is no such thing as equal opportunity in a skill based game hell you don't even have equal equipment since Terrorists still have the better rifle. Here everybody can access any deck they want even a P2W deck and get the same result, equal failure equal success

Mostly untrue and false, but I don't wanna get involved again.
See through the lies on your own, this time, ppl.

What F2P deck is meta rn? Deckbuilding is as important as preparation for matches at CS GO. Also you don't play 1 match and declare a winner in Duel Links, I am not sure cuz I am not into competetive Duel Links but I am sure those matches are played BO3/BO5

See through the lies on your own, this time, ppl.

almost all kog decks are f2p, in fact the only prevalent premium decks are red eyes fusion, neos fusion, and desparado dragon, which do need 3x structure decks which do cost money.

There are so many rogue and budget decks that have made it to kog without a hitch, and are completely f2p too, the only limit is how dedicated and patient you are to collecting cards.

Fortune Ladies
Six Samurai
Invoked
Dark Magician
Darklords
Parshath

You just said it yourself that you don't play this for comp so why are trying to tell me you have to P2W to climb fast? There is also a bunch of random stuff that can get to KOG that isn't delcared meta it's called rogue decks, there is also stall decks mill decks and anti meta decks

"Also you don't play 1 match and declare a winner in Duel Links", except tournaments which do that since you know it's a tournament, there is also coin toss where 2nd to go has a better chance at winning, also no game does that so why are you even trying to bring that up?

Duel link is more like heartstone but currently with this ♥♥♥♥ cannot "derank system" , he lost his compet aspect...

Any deck can be KOG but powerfull deck can do that more easily than a fun/rogue/anti/random deck.

Free to play and P2W structure ex can together reach KOG , the think is currently , Konami as never limit any card from a structure ex and most of them are really powerfull like neos very to splashable or the not so old desperado.

Duel Links is nothing like Hearthstone, that actually takes more skill since you have resource management with your stones and you actually have to build proper decks that aren't usually related to an archetype

Speed doesn't matter in any capacity, ranked is not about how fast you can do something rather if you can do it at all, that's what the problem with his argument

Yeah they never limited a card from a structure EX, because none of them were worth limiting. The only structure deck that has ever been limited was Destiny Heroes because when that first came out it was too powerful. Neos came out around the time Six Samurai was at its prime at guess what, it wasn't capable of beating it since you could have the capability of having 2 Shi Ens on the field by turn 1 making Fusion more difficult. Silent Magician was only a paywall deck and it wasn't much of anything, still affected by traps and was only useful in Lv Up decks and Spellbooks. Master of Chaos is the worst deck they ever made and that's an EX. Blue Eyes was a good one, but that was slow and released around the time Buster Blader was prominent. Ancient Gears was solid, not overpowered but something useful worthwhile. Finally Desperado is just a tumor, it might be cancerous but it's safe to just be prepared and go check it out. It isn't that hard to stop it just an annoyance for only 1 card out of a 20 card deck

When was the last time you ever saw a Structure Deck be broken? Except for D Hero which isn't a EX never, now when was the last time you saw a F2P deck be broken? Literally months ago with Six Samurai. Structure decks are no better than F2P
