How to Get High Score

This page notes what the score is in Yu-Gi-Oh Duel Links, the list of conditions, and how to gain high score.
update 15/02/2017

Score

Based on Duel Assessments

The amount of score is based on the conditions players achieve in a duel. The more amount of score can be obtained as the achieved assessments are difficult.

One Reward by 1,000 Score

Players can obtain one reward per 1000 score when winning a duel. For example, when the score is 2000 or more but less than 3000, you can get 2 rewards.

Tips

Over 6,000 score

Quick Victory and Comeback Victory can be active at the same time and gives you score of 2,500. Not easy to achieve two of them in a duel, but not impossible.

Over 9,999 Damage and Cards on the Brink

To achieve those two is the most popular way to get high score from Legendary Duelists. See the list of cards that can increase their ATK over 10,000.

Quick Victory and No Damage

Quick Victory and No Damage are the easiest conditions to achieve. Using high stats monster cards and equip spell may also allow you to achieve Over 3000 Damage.

Depends on your opponent

If your opponent use spell cards decreasing your life points, LP on the Brink will be easier to achieve. Understanding cards in the opponent's deck is important.

Probably something like an Aromage deck with Nutrient Z, Draining Shield, and Aegis of Gaia. That's only like 21k plus something like 14k from Aroma Garden after a long duel and whatever Draining Shield can get.

The Ra-Kiseitai deck can reach enough LP to give Ra its max 65,355 ATK.

Summoning a DIVINE card gives 1000.

If you use Yami Marik's new skill with Ra, it's not hard to get Perform a Tribute Summon, LP on the Brink, 9999+ damage, and DIVINE bonus in one fell swoop.

Looks like Glossy cards are only worth 50 points now, not 100.

You didn't lose or? Because this half the appearance bonus(glossy/prismatic). What I recognized is, that set glossy/prismatic monster don't count until they are flip summoned from you(if destroyed by opponent, they don't count too).

Just to add, if you used a glossy/prismatic card as fusion material from hand, or discard the glossy/prismatic card from your hand to pay a card's cost, it also won't be counted as playing a glossy/prismatic card.

I no longer get comeback victory if my LP is lower than my opponent's at the beginning of the final turn before winning. It show up occasionally and I can't figure how to meet the condition. Anybody knows if it has changed? Also Prismatic now gives me only 100 DP

Piroca, If you get in trouble for playing games at work that's no one's fault but your own.

No 🔥. Did piroca try to blame someone/something else?

in "Victory by Effect Damage Only" you don't have to reduce enemy life to 0, its enough if you make him damage with a spell and he doesn't get damage from battles.
for example against LVL10 LD you can summon on the first turn a monster with 1700 ATK so he wont attack and make him damage with spell cards and than just wait to his deckout

Comeback victory is when your lp is lower than your opponent´s on the turn you won the duel, so you or your opponent healed to get over 4k.

I once got a 50 points for gloss, but it says 100 shown above. Does 50 only count when you play a gloss monster card in face-down defense mode, but dies afterwards by the opponent?

If you lose, the bonus becomes 50 instead of 100.
