Ok I would like to report back and say that I was wrong in my original assessment of the game. No shame in that.
Ranked matches definitely put you with other users on your skill level as opposed to casual which is where a lot of high skill/long time players seem to hang out. I'm also starting to get the hang of the interface and have a much better deck than I did before. Took about 20-25 pulls but I've got something semi-competitive. Thanks to everyone for talking me off the ledge; I'm still not sure if this game will have legs but I'll shelve the "pay to win" comments for now. However, I still think the single player is a terrible grind even with auto-battle.

I'm glad you're enjoying it more!
It took me a while to get into the game as well so I would hate for anybody to quit before seeing what the game becomes after a little bit of new game clutter gets cleared.

Auto is unlocked through progression.
All the card packs have good cards, so just look through the in game list of what each has for cards you might want and hope you pull them.

Some complaints about the game
-Interface is way too flashy for no reason, really distracting and takes away from what this game should focus on, which is the cards and the duels.
-ive just started but with short duels of only 20 cards and only 4 card hands, this doesn't feel like Yugioh to me. You are really limited in the type of decks that you want to build
All in all, I had high hopes that this game would be an authentic Yugioh experience but I am disappointed.

The other one is for card game enthusiast, this is for a quick casual game with fans of the tv show.

Very easy to get into, lends well to the pick up and play nature of mobile. Give it a download and see if you like since it's F2P.

So considering that I still play Worldwide Edition for GBA occasionally, and refuse to play anything newer because of the increasingly complex mechanics of the card game, this is really the YuGiOh game for me, huh?

Yeah there's none of the new bullshit like xyz, synchro, pendulum, etc. It's very basic which is why I enjoy the game.
Vagabond has been hit or miss with me. Spells/Traps help again him. Banner of courage gives you +200 atk for your attack turn, and there are some effect monsters that can help (4-star lady bug to defeat them, or hane-hane). All depends on what he blocks though
I haven't been playing the optimal builds and decided to go with a spellcaster/dark magician deck as thats what I used to use IRL. Feels good, but I'm annoyed at some of the missing cards. It's weird Dark Magician Girl mentions Magician of black chaos yet I don't see any way to get him. Hopefully future updates? Otherwise I think this game is quite amazing
yeah, i had the cards, just bad luck. is his deck random or fixed?

All these Yami Yugi's online. So glad I included Dharc the Dark Charmer, lol.
Pretty random. Im currently at stage 21 and vagabonds are ridiculously hard to beat unless you have really good cards at your disposal and not get screwed by RNG

Seriously.
I started a dual with him today and the restriction was I only started with two cards. Guess what they were? 2 of the 3 cards in my deck with more than 4 stars, of course.
You can set the challenge?
Also with that bonus its a great time to reroll for people just starting!

So far having a blast with it, I haven't touched the pvp elements but otherwise I am already quite addicted to it.
Nothing like starting off with a 7 star ritual summon on the very first turn.

Can you tell I have a thing for a thing?
A non-effect monster card.
I decided to play online because why not. Choose ranked. Started a duel. When my opponent was on the verge of losing, he "disconnected". The game gives you an option to Wait and I thought "why not giving him the benefit of the doubt and wait a couple of minutes".
Don't do it. After 3 minutes waiting and the 180 seconds internal clock that the game has to avoid users to go afk ran out and I lost the duel.
I don't think I'll do a lot of ranked stuff. I forgot for a moment how things are, and I don't want to waste my time only for people to leave in the last second.

One pack of cards cost 50 gems. I could've sworn it cost only about 10 gems before.
A normal card usually has an italicized flavor text
An effect card has regular text that states this and this for this card
Edit:im currently at silver 3. Trying to get my hands on those dino sets so itd be easier to grind through

Wait it doesn't give you the win if your opponent disconnects but actually punishes you with a loss? Lol?
If you choose to wait to see if he has rage quited or truly disconnected, yes.
If you decide to end the match as soon as he disconnectes, I don't know. But after that I was too pissed off to try a new match.

You are in the wrong game. Yugioh Duel Generations exists for you not Duel Links.
No ios

I have found that I need to rethink my deck strategy with this smaller version of the game. I havent played since years and years ago. I initially created a 30 card deck and found it was just too hard to draw what I needed. I didnt have the space or the resources to support a bunch of high level monsters and superfluous magic/trap cards. A smaller and more focused deck has served me much better.
I did cut out a couple high level monsters which helped, but I actually cut out more magic and trap cards. I'm having much better draw luck now. I still keep a couple high levels but not a lot of them.

Best way to do this with the format the way it is right now and no special summoning except Ritual and Fusion is to keep mainly lvl 4s with high attack as beat sticks and kill the enemy.
Keep like 3 high level monsters and the rest should be lvl 4 or lower. Keep mostly effect monsters with good synergy. Your duels need to be fast and powerful. Get rid of trash cards like Silver Eyed Zombie who has 800 attack as a normal monster and replace him asap.
Your monster attack point average should stay above the 1200 attack range unless they have a good effect.

Yeah, that's what I've been doing so far. Right now I think I have something like:
3 High level Monsters
9 3* or 4* Monsters
8 Magic or Trap cards.
I'll follow the "the less cards the better" rule. If minimum deck size is 20, it's better to keep it at 20, so the chance of getting something that's actually useful is bigger.

My tablet battery died the second I finished the last challenge to unlock Ishizu. I hope I got it.
I want to make a Gravekeeper deck. Though prolly not happening, the drop rate for cards from Duel Gate seems pretty low.
