Description in the game

After graduating from Duel Academy, Zane Truesdale was on the fast track to becoming the greatest Duelist in the pro leagues. However, his defeat against Aster Phoenix set him on a dark path where his only desire was victory - at any cost. As the master of the Cyber Style, Zane uses Cyber End Dragon to power his Underworld Deck with forbidden techniques.

Overview

Zane Truesdale (Ryo Marufuji in JP) is the top duelist of Duel Academy, being one of the few people who were able to beat Jaden in a duel, as well as the rival of Jaden Yuki in Yu-Gi-Oh! GX. Later in the anime/manga, after experiencing several losses and losing hope, he participated in an underground duel where he is then forced to change his ways and eventually becomes "Dark Zane", becoming more aggressive and unforgiving with his playstyle.

A Fusion Summon of this card can only be done with the above Fusion Material Monsters. If this card attacks a Defense Position monster, inflict piercing battle damage to your opponent.

His signature card is Cyber Dragon, which is an archetype consisting of mostly light attribute monsters. Cyber Dragon shares many similarities to Blue-Eyes White Dragon, with the exception that it is not a normal monster. After his personality transformation later in the series, Zane uses a different deck. While still focusing on Cyber Dragons, they mostly consists of their darkened version.

Previous Event

Zane is playable at Victory Carnival 2018

The Event was held on 15 July 2018 in Tokyo Japan and 22 July 2018 in Osaka Japan. Players will get to experience playing Duel Links in a large touch screen!

Zane Truesdale's Deck

During Jump Victory Carnival 2018, Zane Truesdale was included as a playable character for people who went to the event and tried Duel Links section. Here, Zane used a fusion based Cyber Dragon deck with Classic Cyber Dragon cards combined with more modern support. Particularly we saw cards such as Cyber Dragon, Cyber Dragon Core, Evolution Burst, Power Bond, Power Wall, Cyber End Dragon, and Cyber Twin Dragon which are still unavailable to Duel Links players as of now. This may suggest that they will soon be added to Duel Links, which has long been sought after by the community. This also may also suggest that Zane Truesdale himself will soon be playable and come with support focused around Cyber Dragons and not Cyber Dark Dragons.

Considering you would need Polymerization, Cybernetic Fusion Support, Half Shut and at least 6 semi-specific monsters in your hand/field/Graveyard, I don't see how. Especially considering it's very easily disrupted. (Oh look, I just used Enemy Controller on your Chimeratech.)

Sphere Kuriboh is a card that exists. ;p Also, since it would prevent you using Half Shut during the Battle Phase, you'd just respond to their Half Shut with an Enemy Controller on the Chimeratech they just Summoned.

That Power Bond skill is a joke, when your life point dropped below 500 you've already lose

So basically, Crowler gets an unlock event right away, but the hot GX guys (Jesse and Zane) have to roam first. I hope that this isn't a pattern that GX is going to continue to follow... (I apologize to anyone who doesn't agree with me about Crowler not being hot).

Like what they have been doing with the Mariks? But at least Zane is going to be roaming soon, so that means that they can hopefully get him out faster.

tbh i dont see his deck being meta changing at all his cards revolve around traps and spells nand their effects get stopped by floodgate and econs and super rush all plat and above have those cards...i will farm him but probably on for some other spell and traps. his deck losses if you dont draw the trap none of his monsters can be summonened without it.

I'll be so disappointed if Zane Truesdale isn't going to be unlockable in early January.

Don't worry. The faster they can get a character out roaming, the quicker they can (probably) become unlockable. It would be a lot worse if nothing happened at all.

Are they releasing Dark Zane or normal Zane?

I have dealt with many unhappy girls in my life. Nobody understands unhappy girls better than me....
So terrible that this guy would lose to it's own individual pieces if it battled them.
