Notes

  • Gemini Elf can be replaced with Neo the Magical Swordsman or Mist Valley Watcher. Legion the Fiend Jester can be replaced by Blue Dragon Summoner.
  • Stall the entire game with Labyrinth Wall.
  • While stalling, try to deck out as quickly as possible with your draw effects.
  • Use Wonder Wand on your Gravekeeper's Recruiter or Blue Dragon Summoner, this way you can draw more cards from your deck and fetch another monster from your deck.
  • Use White Elephant's Gift to send Gemini Elf to your graveyard and draw 2 cards. Remember to keep at least 1 Gemini Elf in your hand for your final turn.
  • During you final turn, put Labyrinth Wall in attack position and then activate Shield and Sword before summoning Gemini Elf. Then use Double Summon to summon Gravekeeper's Vassal.
  • If you are using Mist Valley Watcher summon him first before using Shield and Sword.

Notes

  • Summon Ojama Knight or Ojama King as early as possible. They have enough defense to stall Mai's strongest monsters and with 0 attack Mai cannot use Amazoness Fighting Spirit to boost her attack.
  • After that just keep stalling until you deck out. Ojama Blue and Jar of Greed helps you get Ojamas out of your deck, King of the Swamp helps you search Polymerization in your deck. You can also use these cards to help fusion summon Ojama Knight earlier, if you have not yet.
  • During your final turn, have 2 face-up attack position Ojama Knight then use Ojama Country. Normal Summon Gravekeeper's Vassal then use Secret Pass to the Treasures and 2 Union Attack on him. Direct attack for over 9999 damage assessment.
  • Restart is only for consistency boosting. This deck can work without any skill, so you can use it for skill farming.

Using Tea with Holy guard skill.3 Unhappy girl and keep attacking his monster, 3 of Rai-Mai to pull out Unhappy girls more easily and 3 bubonic mumin to fun your deck and good defensive cards. Other 11 cards to finish Mai depend on you
It's Me, Luigi
This Deck works very well for me. Just boost her monsters above 1900 ATK and you are safe. Easy win.

Irsyad, why German. Anyways, I like this build. Very different compared to standard Cerberus deck which can be risky.

I can't tell if this deck is consistent since i just used it for this missions, but i got the 3 wins in a roll at the first time with this deck after failing to do the streak with other decks. Mako decks evolving around Suijin were very effective, since you either mill her out attacking and destroying amazoness monsters with Suijin, making her summon monsters until she decks herself out, or the AI will do something dumb because it can't deal with Suijin's effect properly. You could also use a modified BEWD & Kazejin deck for this mission.

I used this deck, with Mako's Mysthical Dephs:

Monsters:
3x Suijin
3x Unshaven Angler
3x High Tide Gyojin
2x Blizzard, The Defender of the Ice Barrier
1x Sphere Kuriboh

Spells:

1x Ryrioku
1x Stray Lambs
3x Big Wave Small Wave

Traps:

1x Embodiment of Apophis
1x Curse of Anubis
1x Windstorm of Etaqua

*notice that i do not have any enemy controller, but you should probally use one here to help to garantee a tribute summon or cause damage changing amazoness monsters to attack position.

anybody got a deck that can defeat her 3 times in a row guanteed?

What skill would you recommend with a ritual deck?
<< Anonymous(PK)

I just tried a ritual deck, I keep pulling the wrong cards.

I start a hand with two synthesis ritual spells but two hungry burger ritual monster cards... keep getting the wrong cards
<< Anonymous(PK)

Don't run Hungry Burger: Lycanthrope ONLY. Then throw in some Judge Mans/Meteor Dragons (3 total in any amount), Blue Dragon Summoners (I run 2), Iron Blacksmith Kotetsu's (2 as well), and of course whatever amount you have of the Ritual searchers (I only have 1 each and it still works). That leaves 2 more spots, Windstorm of Etaqua + something else is what I'd do.

Run the deck with an ability that allows you to swap hand cards. Switcheroo is best, but Restart is also an option.

I went against Mai more than 20 times in a row and lost every single time. I tried a beatdown deck, stalling deck, cerberus deck, ritual deck, and a fusion deck. Nothing works and now I'm stuck on stage 49. I can't move on because if that one challenge. Every other legendary duelist has a loop hole to beat them but Mai's amazoness deck is too over powered. The creators of the game needs to nerf it to the where u can beat it a couple times. Since I started this game Mai at lvl 40 was always hard but I won against here a couple times but now I think it's impossible.

I am stage 59.
- I have to beat mai lvl 40 w/ joey 3 times w/ quick victory...(stuck at1/3)
If you think just beating her is hard wait for that nonsense.
-Her deck is overpowered but I noticed to win in general you need to be able to put her monsters in defense mode & have a 2200+ atk monster. She has to not draw the plus 1000 atk c. Spell & you Must 🔥 that over the FS

Her turn - my turn - her turn - loss

Yo, you can use various OTK-Decks.
I used a Deck containing:
-3x Karate-Man
-3x Twin Swords of Flashing Light - Tryce
-3x Secret Pass To The Treasures
-3x Bubonic Vermin
-3x Jar of Greed
You can add whatever cards you wish, but in order to archieve a quick victory you have to get 1x Karateman, 1x Twin Swords Tryce and 1x Secret Pass to the Treasure to your hand. Then oneshot...

When karateman uses his ability he reaches 2000 attack no matter what was his previous atk points so he can 1 shot with the listed combo.=4000

This crap is the reason i deleted the game. Win 3 x against Lvl. 40 Mai in a row ? Just lol. The problem is not skill or cards, the problem is the random 🔥. Even with a 10 monster/10 non-monster deck, in 3 out of 10 duels, your first 5-6 cards are only monster or non-monster, a 100% lose.
