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.

I’ve found that the Dark Paladin farming deck is useful for this one. Since the highest possible attack is lower than Dark Paladin’s original attack, if you can get it on turn one, your victory is practically assured.

Regarding the labyrinth deck.

Its better to take out spell draw spells like shard and trap draw spells,
because her sage attacks into labyrinth wall if you have some in your spell trap zone
And that will make you lose1000 effect dmg.

You can replace them with crystal seers and other monster draws + go with 3x wonder wand spell.

Pick up lithograph too to make sure you can hold all the needed cards.
You can remove the curry spell.

Try keep the essential cards in the deck so you dont have to throw away/set an important spell trap as her sage will destroy it.

You can manage this with crystal seers choosing and by not using your last gravekeeper for vassal so he stays in the deck as long as possible.

Hope this helps some people.

I meant the effect dmg only points.

Also an option is replace the fusion with the fiend megacyber.

This way you wont have over 7 essential cards and thus no worries of getting too many cards in your hands.

You can fill in the empty spots in the deck with the anything useful + the new Typhoon trap that you can use from your hand instantly.

Giving you the used a trap score, without worries about her sage.

Is the archer a problem when using labyrinth builder skill?

For some reason, I feel like I hardly ever get green keys to challenge her these days, and I don't want to use the card trader for them too much. Does anyone know a good way to get more green keys, or is it just random?

I want to give an improvement to the Labyrinth Builder deck above. Amazoness Sage is a problem for the current build for two reasons: if you use Shard of Greed, she will attack your Labyrinth Wall, costing you the effect damage only bonus, and the final 10k damage combo has too many cards you need to keep until the final turn (2x union attack, 2x thunder dragon, secret pass, shield and sword, gk vassel, and that's 7) so you either have to set a card which Amazoness sage will destroy or finish the farm early costing you the no cards left bonus.

This version is also 8k base without glossy or prismatic bonuses because of the tribute summon. In this version, you want to search for vassal early with recruiter and wonder wand and then discard it when your hand is full or use it with wonder wand to get it into the graveyard. On the last turn, tribute labyrinth wall for chief to bring back vassal, fusion (have fusion gate active ahead of time), secret pass, union, union, attack. That's only 6 cards needed that you can't discard instead of 7 (chief, 2x thunder dragon, secret pass, 2x union attack,

The double summon is just there since it can speed up the farm sometimes by using two wonder wands in one turn or you can use wonder wand and tribute for chief in the same turn.

Important things for either version to know: you can "toggle on" to use jar of greed or legacy of yata-garusu before amazoness sage can enter the battle phase, and Mai doesn't try to destroy fusion gate with amazoness sage.

i think its a good idea to remove the LD from the gate. i would suggest removing their spawns as well, we should only be able to get cards through booster packs. Also remove the card trader. :)

Might as well remove pvp ticket reward, unlock event and roaming event. So that we can only getting cards from booster pack! sweeeet!! :)
Valencia
I honestly believe that she is the hardest LD to beat. I usually have to cram more spell/trap removal into my deck just to start winning. Worse than Kaiba, because I'm not just worrying about one card, but all of those annoying Amazoness things like willpower and that stupid village! And it is taking forever to get some of her cards! Die, Mai!

She's too easy. Just use labyrinth builder. She can't do anything about it. Just don't attack her monsters or she will mill her self out.

I'm too stubborn to use any type of deck that I don't want to. Right now, I am just using a basic, boring Kaiba-dragon beatdown deck that is juiced up with a lot of ultra and super rare spell/trap cards. My new deck cannot be a reality just yet. I will admit that Mai sometimes ends up basically killing herself with chain master if she doesn't have a lot of other stuff at the same time.

My formula. Put some glossy cards and you'll get +8k duel assessment
