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.

Do you guys know by any chance if Duel Links is going to be released for Nintendo Switch ? Because it would be awesome to play it in portable console as well !

It's also the most successful console of 2017, and the sales will keep increasing. Reminder that Pokemon, which is Nintendo's biggest weapon to increase console sales, is releasing a new core series game in 2019. (No, I'm not talking about Let's Go.)

If that is failure, then I bet Playstation and XBox want some failure too lmao

for all those who are thinking of a way to build cyber deck around either "cyber style" or "no excuse " if you got it ,i highly recommend to put inside the deck "my body as a shield" from galactic origin at least 2.
ppl are frustrated from a meta of monsters raps with removal effect and that card is a hard counter to all of them (treacherous trap hole ,widespread ruin or furries)it cost 1500 hp which get you closer to use your skill .its only 1 card so low resources wise is great and its only a rare from that box.can counter any magic trap or monster removal effects .!! (during the battle phase).

I have a hard combo. I use it once, but when I want to use it, opponent will surrender. -> Summon Cyber End dragon, use Cyber network, then cybernetic fusion support + polymerizaton, banish cyber end dragon and other monsters,fusion summon Chimeratech Overdragon, then activate cyber network, bring back cyber end and 1 other monster, and your next turn you can attack and win. But if its hard, use this combo when cyber end in the grave, and you can bring back

Use Double cyclone or anything to destroy it on opponents turn, that way you don't have to skip your own turn's battle phase and still can SS.

Chimeratech will send Cyber Network to the grave without even destroying upon summoning...

another problem is that cyber network won't activate since CED is not a cyber dragon by name so you won't be able to banish the extra 1

Okay so unless someone's gotten Fatal Five, I think we can remove this from the page. Because that's the name of his Level 60 deck.

Cyber dragon is too op for upcoming syncro era, it's understandable they didn't release it yet, for now. If you all just want 3 copies of op cards just play a console yugioh game.

What about fur hire?

Zane's other signature card. lol

You guys are upset because you didn't get Cyber Dragon and Power Bond lol. I understand as I'm a Hero/Judai fan, waiting for Grand Mole, Stratos and E-Call to be released, but you have to understand they're broken cards and can be splashed on almost any deck. Let's have some patience here.

Broken cards? What about Fur hires? Mask Change? The game has plenty of broken cards, these arguments are not valid anymore.

Yes, they're leaving unsupported most of the characters' archetypes to the point of not being able to compete in the meta. It's not only E HEROes and Cyber Dragons that are suffering with this burden: Blue-Eyes, Cyberdarks, Roids, Armed Dragon, ABC-XYZ Unions...

As for Blue-Eyes, knowing their boner for DM, we'll get the "with Eyes of Blue" Tuners and the Synchros when 5Ds world arrives.
