Upcoming events/updates [December]

Duel Links upcoming events and updates in December 2017.

update 27/11/2017

This coming December is all about getting new characters! As new players will be able to obtain a total of 4 new characters, while current/returning players will get 2 new ones. This will mean a lot of gems and new cards obtainable from level up rewards, and new skills, possibly creating new playstyles.

[Early Dec] Yami Marik unlock event

Yami Marik will once again return to the game! Available for new players to unlock, as well as bringing a new card that was not seen from the previous event.

"Hmm... Maybe it's time for you to witness this card!"

[Mid Dec] Duel-A-Thon + New Character

Coming in mid December will be an "all new Duel-A-Thon." As stated in the in-game announcements, duel to earn points and you will be able to unlock a new character!

"Try not to scream... A real spook is coming your way!"

[Mid Dec] Yami Bakura (Gate)

The next addition to the Gate will be Yami Bakura! Previously an event exclusive character only. In mid December, he will be available in the Gate for everyone to challenge and unlock!

[Late Dec] New Legendary Duelist

Coming this late December is a new unlockable Legendary Duelist. We are given the hints about the upcoming character and that it's from the "Duelist Chronicles! Battle City", which is from the first generation of Yu-Gi-Oh! and a quote from the character:

"You're all invited to a show... A show of nightmares that is! Let Battle City begin!"

January

For the start of the new year, Duel Links decides to improve on some features as well as celebrating the 1 year anniversary of their global release.

[Early Jan] New Character

A new character is set to appear this coming early January. Not much is mentioned in the news, but we are given a quote from the character as the hint:

"All I desire... is victory!"

Improvements, Tag Duel Event, and 1 year Annieversary!

This coming January, Duel Links will be celebrating the 1 year Anniversary of Duel Links' global launch. Giving players many gifts and gem giveaways. There are also going to be some planned improvements, as well a "Tag Duel Event" coming this late January.

Planned improvements mentioned in the notice:

Improvement on Deck Editor screen transitions
Implementation of a button to change between worlds in Duel World

I'm happy about the Yami Marik event (and what sounds like Zane!). But as for the rest, screw this 🔥. I don't give a damn about Bonz and Arkana. Why the bloody hell would they give us Arkana and not Marik Ishtar for a Battle City event!? Judging from all of the text here, it looks like Konami obviously does not want to give us normal Marik, EVER. Nope, they would prefer to focus on all of these minor characters when it comes to the DM version! I might as well just give up on hoping to get Marik and just be Yami Marik's fangirl instead in this game!

Do we even know if Yami Marik or Marik Ishtar is the one unlocked? I really think it will be Marik Ishtar and not Yami Marik.

Why? Because you don't see it played? It's its 🔥ing trash as 🔥. Go ahead and play it, I'll 🔥 you with goblin thief or Hinotama, dragons fireball etc

Duel links is a 🔥ed choice to willingly drop LP.

This could very well be true, but I think it will be someone else because they would say something about it being in gx world and it sayd nothing about that

Didn't he appear a lot later in his 'Dark'? Since he was one the Key holders in the first season during the whole Shadow Rider saga. He became his darker self after graduating beginning season 2 after losing to Aster.

FINALLY! Cyber Angels are going to get nerfed again but hard. Mind Scan is also getting a nerf too.

Yeah there are many people claiming that like its 100 % true, interesting thing is all of them have NO EVIDENCE, For example one guy claimed his friend worked in the developer team and told him when i asked how he said there was ome survez between 1000 users and 1000 developers BUT BUT BUT when i asked him to show it to me he said it was not for public I CALL THAT TOTAL BS

Mind Scan won't be nerfed. All you have to do is reduce your opponent to less than 3k and away it goes.

An yet, Blue-Eyes Shining is worst than them. Obelisk is the only powerful Divine-Beast in the end.

4K base atk, the only one that can't be targeted, has a "raigeki" effect and don't have any stupid noob condition like Ra and Slifer that limit the plays or affects negativelly the owner of the card.

I have a pretty consistent BEUD deck, I included Shining Dragon on it and I've been able to summon him fairly often, it's ability to negate Enemy Controller was won men a few duels.

Cr-Kekistani Reply

Also, you could build a fairly consistent deck for Ra with destiny draw on a LP recovering deck, just add 3 copies of Ra's Disciple, cards like double summon and celestial transformation so you can summon 3 Ra's Disciple and then summon Ra on the same turn.

I can't wait for Yami Bakura :'( He is my hasubando and I want to make sweet love to him and by sweet love I mean to play children's card games all night long.

The Addition or a special event of King Thief Bakura would be awesome. If Konami considers that there will be a lot of things to look forward to.

I ran 3 kuriboh multiply and detonate took me like four tries to finally get a hand that works. Basically Marik has to start you did a kuriboh multiply detonate and a monster

If you draw E-con, you can just steal his Ra, use effect to destroy any monster he may have summoned, then attack directly with Ra for easy win (this assumes you go second). If you go first, you'll need something that can stall Ra for a bit.

Ricardo Camillo Reply

Use Pegasus, and battle until in the first turn you invoke relincshed and use the effect in RA, in mean while you need invoke another creature to beat his monsters but not necessary in the first turn, it´s only to you remove Ra from the battle and increase your chance of victory

why would konami add more characters to DM while GX only has one event exclusive duelist.

Umm why does it matter. Everyone will be added eventually. They do not seem to be limiting who gets added. If the duelist was relevant, has a fan base, was introduced as being renown or famous for dueling or if there were ever seen dueling then they will be added. These listed reasons explain why everyone thus far has a spot in DL. We also know this game is based on BOTH the anime and the manga.

Most fans are fans from the anime not the manga. The download screen mentions the anime and there are absoluteky no manga onky character in DL. But we can see manga pages shown in the ibfo about new duelist entering the game and we so we def know this has basis from both. Too many of you complain...

The more character they add the more levels and stuff we have available to keep us busy and the more money they make. We are hapoy so we keep using the app. The app is growing reguardless of what you 🔥 about. Put up or 🔥. They will go crazy with adding GX characters eventually I gurantee you. We went mobths with barely a new character for DM and now we get them like fleas. Be patient.

There is no such thing as a card being too OP. There are always limits or other cards added to balance. Ra is hard to summon ao it is no more unfair than any other high attack monster. This is nto the anine. It is just a card and can be defeated... People really irritate me. Speculate, have fun and stop 🔥ing about how the game is not good enough or they shouldn't add this or that
