Minor bump......

I'm searching online for yugioh cards because I want to remake my harpie deck and those cards ARE EXPENSIVE! I don't know if I should pick a different theme or try to fish out some of these cards at cardshops or something. Where does everyone get their cards from? Or does anyone here have any possibly?! :3

EDIT: The movie boxes and the duelist saga are my favorite packs to buy... I got some really good pulls from them!

Scale 0 that can be searched through Summoner's Art is nice!

A new target for Instant Fusion is great since it can change it's Attribute if another extra deck summon requires a specific attribute.

I thought Linklebell was the Light Attribute Link 2 Hoshinengen lol, seems to be nice for Pendulum decks that can fill up their extra deck with face-up Pendulum monsters.

That's the only use I can think for it, decks like Qli and Igknight can use the little shit

Magicians need their 15 Card Extra Deck I don't see how this is better than a good ol' Decode Talker for them since they mostly Pend from the hand En masse

Hmmm that is true, Magicians can easily fill up their extra deck but they don't go for Link Monsters. I guess it can just be an alternative to Decode Talker since they basically have the same Link Arrows

Trading is always an option.

As is buying booster boxes were it's almost guaranteed you'll get the card or at least good trading fodder.

That's true. I went to my local cardshop today and was able to pick up code talker, x3 pet dragons, harpie harpist, startdust, and an ice beast zerofyne. Not bad. It cost me a lot needless to say, but I have to ask: are people really trading on value? It seems really stupid tbh.

Yes they are and yes it is.

I always trade based on what I need though.

Do you have any tips on what to look out for? I bought the legendary deck box today and ended up trading some of the new magician cards for 2 cards I needed. I feel like a total idiot and really wish I could take it back :/ .

Usually when I trade I always ask myself 3 things

"Do I like the cards I'm giving away even if it's just for collecting or for their art?"

"Am I trading them for cards I will definitely use?"

"Am I hungry/horny enough to justify selling them cheap to buy a meal or something for my GF?" Lol

If you didn't like the Dark Magician Cards, who cares? You got cards for the deck you wanted.

If you feel you acted impulsively and lost cards you liked/money then just take the L and keep it in mind for next time.

When I got back into the game and Synchros were all the rage I traded a lot of cards I loved for shitty white cardboard like Flamvell Urukisas or X-Saber Urbellum just because they were the new shit...definitely learned my lesson

Hey are you to try the cyber and odd-eyes decks?

If you don't want them keep in mind many cards in the odd eyes deck are easy sells as they are doing decently in the tournament scene

I might look into doing that. I didn't get a chance to try out the odd eyes one but I did like the concept of the cyber deck.

I'm still learning how to Pendulum summon and all that so I'll see if I like the concept. Again, it's just for casual duels so I might just do what you said and sell the cards. I have to fund my future Trickstar deck somehow!

Been running Cyber Angels like everyone else has been in Duel Links and have been liking it enough to make a real deck.

I have to get used to having Synchros and stuff. Never released used them or fusions as they just never "clicked."

I watched a video on how to Link summon and it seems like it can be a lot of fun once they add more Link cards.

I had no idea the Japanese cards printed "Special Summon"

On an unrelated note I really like Localized Trunade.

Not returning face up cards should keep the loops in check.

Though, I don't want this card at 3 for long, I wasn't into 3 Cold Wave at all.

I'm liking that dino as well as that Link dragon monster. I've always liked dino decks but the one I have is way outdated.

I bought the Link starter deck to try and get into Link monsters. I also bought a Code of Duelist booster pack and pulled a Firewall Dragon. Debating whether to sell it or just keep it in the off-chance that I end up liking Link monsters.

You lucky bastard...

Sell it.

It's the new main character's ace card. That shit will be reprinted to hell and back

See: Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon, Number 39:Utopia, Stardust Dragon, Elemental Hero Neos and Dark Magician.

All with like 9000 easily obtainable reprints

I haven't watched Vrains so I had no idea. Reading into the effect, it seems like a really good card.

I'll look into selling it then.

Guess I can use it as Trickstar Resurrection money.

Edit: Which are some decent, cheap link monsters?

It's going to largely depend on what deck you play.

I can only really use generic Link monsters so I run Proxy Dragon, Decode Talker, Gaia Saber, & Topologic Bomber Dragon (mainly because I don't own Firewall Dragon and like Fj said, he'll be reprinted to hell and back)

I'll look into those.

My only real decks are the Simochi one I have and the one that should be arriving next week, Cyber Angels. So... dark and light monsters.

Man, devpro is inactive, Ygopro is enforcing the current OCG rulings on me for some reason (even though I only play TCG), and Ygopro 2 is really ugly and not as easily modifiable. What do you guys use?

Missus Radiant
Mistar Boy
Gaia Saber the Lightning Shadow
Topologic Bomber Dragon
Ib the World Chalice Priestess
Link Spider

Bolded are the ones you can use in any deck.

I know there's very few of those, the players is quite unhappy about it

I got a 2nd Dragon Deck set...might get a 3rd. It's a very good set. Probably the best they've ever done.

Still hoping for a Banned Card Collection someday, though.

I'm thinking of getting back into YGO. I stopped playing...like a year ago? Sometime around ABCs debuting. I know of, but missed the Zoodiac stuff.

I tried getting into Shadowverse, and while it's an okay game there's too many problems. Ya'll think going second in YGO is bad? It's a fucking death sentence in Shadowverse--summoning sickness means sometimes you're battling so far behind there are games where you or your opponent can have full life and still win the battle. Plus there aren't really side deck cards or ways to make your deck stronger against its weaknesses. There's just a lack of strategy that I miss from YGO, where it doesn't matter what my opponent uses there's something I can include in my deck to make them worry. And no matches? It's literally always gg no re.

It's starting to bug me. So what did I miss in YGO that's relevant atm.

Invasion of Chaos basically ruined Yugioh for about 18 months. Don't forget that.

Runner-up, for me, goes to Legacy of Darkness for introducing Yata-Garasu, which got banned a week after the set's release.

Gotta go deeper than that. I know Links and how they work. I should say I tried to come back to YGO earlier this year and periodically check The Org but not to the meta level I used to.

What's meta atm? What are the best side deck/tech choices? Can I still beat decks I have no right to with Blackwings, lol. And is any automatic program using Links yet? When I checked in June they weren't.

Right now, SPYRAL is looking like it will dominate the meta, as of now Magicians are topping but only because the competition was decimated on the list

Regarding programs, DevPro is using OCG rulings but it has links

And considering Blackwing Gofu is an instant LINK-3, I'd say you can
