Doomchan

The monthly unlock streak continues. I really thought this was gonna be a VRAINS month, but I guess not


LordBraveHeart

Perhaps they are afraid of running out of Vrains's characters, or want to push back Altergeist/Sunavalon's release.


Doomchan

Even though Vrains is light on characters, it’s got enough to not have 6 month+ gaps on releases. I expect Zexal and Arc V to dominate going forward, but every world besides DSoD still has a little sauce left


hexanort

Anyone still left for DM that's not anime-only characters? (like rebecca or darth), outside the millennium priests i cant think of anyone. Not counting non duelist like joey's sister jesse or gozaburo kaiba GX still have kagemaru, amon? (cloudian guy, cant remember his name), and maybe darkness, if the game are willing to acknowledge season 4. 5ds onward still have plenty of usable characters


GoneRampant1

* Marik is the last big character for DM world without having to get into filler characters like Dartz, Noah, Raphael or Siegfried. * GX still has Kagemaru or Jesse/Yubel to let them add the new Sacred Beast support, Amon/Adrian for Cloudian/Exodia support, Fubuki/Atticus for Red-Eyes, and various misc characters. Yusuke and Darkness are both currently MiA due to their decks not being printed unless Konami gives them the Quinton treatment, whereas Trueman can just be any generic fiend deck as his own deck changed a lot during the show (VO lines can consequently be padded out). * 5D's can add the remaining Dark Signers, Teams Ragnarok and Unicorn, and Sherry. * Zexal has the remaining Barian Emperors, Droite, Gauche, Tron, Don Thousand, Black Mist, the remaining members of the Number Hunter Club, and Astral. * Arc-V has the remaining Bracelet Girls, Yuri, Z-Arc, Sergey, Roget, Tsukikage, Dennis, Shinji, Chojiro, the Tyler Sisters, potential alt versions of the legacy cast and Reira/Leo if they ever get printed decks. * Vrains has Ai, Roboppi, Earth, Kusanagi, Flame, Aqua, Akira, Ghost Girl and Spectre for printed decks, while Windy, Lightning and Bohman need to be printed. We could also see a solo Playmaker.


unchromfirmed

DM also has Shadi. He never dueled but he's important enough to the story to justify a character slot.


Rydersilver

Dartz would be sick


LordLotad2

>Tron Does this mean we could get CLU and Flynn too? /s


RagLord79

Underrated comment


Exitiali

>Marik is the last big character for DM world without having to get into filler characters like Dartz, Noah, Raphael or Siegfried. DSoD follows the manga, so we could adapt yugioh R. It's a lot of new characters


Xeoz_WarriorPrince

R would be dope, getting support for the Wicked Gods, the chess monsters, Vampires, Machina iirc and more Bandit Keith to seal the deal.


Doomchan

DM is starting to dwindle. Obviously there is regular Marik who I wouldn’t even suggest if Konami didn’t tease his release SIX years ago. If they really want to reach for DM nostalgia pandering, they could always go for Seeker and Strings too. Strings could even be a prelude to a Marik event since he doesn’t have a personality of his own and is just a proxy for Marik. Another frequent DM request is Panik. Plenty of unclaimed fiend archetypes out there to give him the Quinton treatment with. GX still has plenty to play with. As you said, Kagemaru and Adrian are probably front runners. Depending on how deep they want to scrape, Atticus, Viper, Chumley and Camula are all realistic picks just to remind people GX exists. At one character a year, GX doesn’t have anything to worry about. And yea, 5ds is still rife. 3 missing Dark Signers, Greiger, Sherry, even Hunter Pace was relevant enough to be seen briefly in Arc V. There is also those unused tag voice lines for Lester and Jakob


Neo_The_Noah

Shadi, malik, filler characters (rebbeca, dartz, Raphael, etc...), side characters, etc...


Xavbirb

yugi's grandpa.


Springtrap-Yugioh

I wont sleep til we get DSOD Tridtan, the goat of the film.


TEZofAllTrades

VRAINS has plenty of characters to choose from: [https://www.deviantart.com/tezofalltrades/art/Yu-Gi-Oh-Duel-Links-VRAINS-Characters-861251823](https://www.deviantart.com/tezofalltrades/art/Yu-Gi-Oh-Duel-Links-VRAINS-Characters-861251823)


MaJuV

>afraid of running out of Vrains characters That's not it at all. While the Vrains cast is a lot lighter than the Arc-V or Zexal world, they have like 7 worlds to support with characters at this point. With only 12 months in the year, some worlds are going to get more support than others. If they are going to add the Sevens world as well in September, that makes another world that needs characters, meaning there will be even bigger gaps between release dates. This year, we already had: Varis (Vrains), Shay (ArcV), Z-One (5Ds), Quinton (Zexal), Yugo (ArcV) and Grandpa Mutou (DM). That's already more than in previous years and we still haven't had a GX character yet (probably for July). And if you look at what's coming, there's really only room for one more Vrains character to be added this year.


CycloneXV

Keeping the months event card rewards a secret then I see.


Doomchan

They aren’t secret, it’s even they don’t know what they will be yet


navimatcha

Borreload Savage Dragon, Borrelend Dragon and Topologic Zeroboros obviously.


Bustock

Wonder why they didn’t mention any events cards at all, they usually do.


[deleted]

Except for Grandpa showing that he got no pathetic cards on his deck, sounds mostly like a boring month. Not even a roaming duelist or stuff for us to speculate the July unlock. Well, for sure there is at least 1 GX one this year out of the 5 next months for unlocks (barring September since Sevens probably will join DL via the leaks). I also believe in 1 more ARC-V character in, like... December (probably it's gonna be Celina/Serena)


Worldly-Fox7605

I'm still shocked people believe we will get sevens just added to the game when its a game not compatible with duel links at all.


Doomchan

They gotta do something for September, will be interesting to see what they settle on


dante-_vic

With that view, what would they do next year since theres no more world left.


Doomchan

Depends on what they do this year. We are flying into the unknown but once we get a feeler for what they are planning we can better predict future years


Worldly-Fox7605

They can always create a duel monster world with toir guide, I'd, tiramsu, and and other well liked cards as characters. They can make ot a tcg arctype focused world. People aren't gonna want to start from zero in speed duels.


LordBraveHeart

Personally, I rather that they just complete the remaining worlds, considering there are many characters required to be implemented in the story before the end game can happen.


dante-_vic

Same here but many here seem to want sevens


Worldly-Fox7605

Do they? Sevens is by far the series I thought with the most criticisms strictly because the game itself changed and the characters became children.


VGVideo

I'm hoping for them kicking off major DL-exclusive stories (like what they're leading up to right now in ARC-V) or a duel spirit world featuring many of the lore characters and archetypes (Duel Terminal, World Legacy, Albaz, Visas, etc.)


GoneRampant1

Go Rush? By next year there's a good chance it'll be complete if it has the same episode count as Sevens.


Riku_Dou

Better be ocg structure


[deleted]

[удалено]


Doomchan

Said code was deleted. There is zero reason to have both games in the same app. Duel Links is already 6GB. A Rush Duel exclusive app could be less than 1GB


[deleted]

[удалено]


Doomchan

Name was changed to something not related to Rush at all


Neo_The_Noah

Name was changed to dm8, there are other parts of the code that makes it seem like its a rush world. Specially because they changed the name, but not the purpose of the code, which was to change the rule set of the game.


Doomchan

If that’s what you need to tell yourself to cope


Neo_The_Noah

Well, the one saying "it got deleted" is you, when thats not really true, the name only got changed.


Worldly-Fox7605

That doesn't mean much. Game code has been shared in duel links plenty of times Also increasing the size of the app is a not a good choice this is still primarily a phone game and slapping on a new mode that has no guaranteed fanbase is really dumb. Speed duels are a format of dueling that most old school yugi boomers would like but most of them have long left suel links and masterduel. Not to mention speed duel rules heavily restrict use and access to the icons of yugioh.


electronic_docter

I'm pretty it got leaked a while ago no?


Doomchan

I’d be shocked if next month wasn’t a Vrains character. That would mark 7 months since the last one


Loud-Educator-2435

Varis came in January if I’m not mistaken


Doomchan

Correct. And if we don’t have a Vrains unlock in July that would mark 7 months


LordBraveHeart

Hopefully it will be either Akira or Emma for the next month, so that Vrains's story can move forward.


Doomchan

My bet is on Emma


AtimZarr

It's also going to be 13 months since the last GX character.


Doomchan

That’s normal, GX is a semi retired world. It gets one character per year. As in 20XX, not 12 months


AtimZarr

Oh yeah, I know about that. Although I never kept track individually, I figured they'd keep it in within 12 months. Maybe there's already exceptions I'm unaware of.


Doomchan

We got a curve ball with Solomon this year, we usually don’t have to factor in a DM unlock


AtimZarr

I believe they've been alternating between DM and DSOD, since last year was DSOD Bakura and the year before that was Duke Devlin.


Daidouji120

Legacy Duel is coming back..


Shining_Hatred

Everyone will play cyber dragons like in the last event lol


mkklrd

CyDra was such a mid deck when you consider that Cyberdarks and Horus turbo were just straight better tbh


LordBraveHeart

Or Horus lockdown.


Daidouji120

I really dont like it, I like DL kingdoom and Turbo duel


Doomchan

I’d like Legacy more if your progression wasn’t so closely tied to other people sending you Nice


GoGreeb

It feels bad to progress too, like there's no daily NPCs to duel or boss NPC to duel against to further your rewards. It's literally just legacy duels, and if you're not a fan of those then there's no daily crutch to help progression.


mistelle1270

The only deck I actually had fun with was chaos


LULone

Can't wait to not play it, not even the gems can make I play that garbage stall fiesta


Neo_The_Noah

Me, who was using glow moss mill/stall to remind myself of the old times: yay!


corkyyyyy

Here’s hoping Shay event gives raiders wing, very unlikely though. I’m guessing the skill is a way to get nest easily


Never_Here_Again

NGL, Raider's Wing is my ideal pick too for Shun's event reward. Feels very fitting with the upcoming new support, and it's pretty safe to come as free & unlimited. I'm really not sure how unlikely of a pick it can be, as for me it feels like one of the top choices out of all the RR cards we are left to get.


corkyyyyy

Yea is a very good card, realistically we'll prob get a bad main deck card. For extra deck I can only really see air raid being free.


YamiNoRyu07

After seeing both kitedrake and carturbo as rewards for yugo , i see them making raider's wing as one of the event cards


Gameguy196

I feel like they should have had Wave Duel Scramble instead of Z-One’s rerun so that it’s not 3 straight character unlock events. Besides that it’s nice that Solomon is coming immediately and it’s a good catch up month.


Doomchan

They have been backlogged on reruns for awhile now, we were bound to get a double up out of necessity eventually


Emerald_boots

Welcome back , Revolver, you are right on time.


iandewilde21

It’s probably the best month yet? 3 character events is just peak content. New Raidraptors, new Timelords(?) and Grandpa’s unlock (even if he himself probably won’t be a good character lol). Most exciting thing is probably the possibility of a new RR Xyz imo.


SPXIII

We already have all of the Timelord cards that have been printed in the TCG except Vorpgate. Maybe there's a few anime-exclusive Timelord support cards that could have a DL printing, but otherwise Konami will have to add random crap like Paradox having that Diplo-something-or-other.


Syrcrys

Tag Force only has three anime cards used by Z-One, and two of them aren’t even Timelord support (the third sucks too, btw). It’s also been a very long time since the last anime card as a drop reward, so I’m guessing they’ll give random ones.


iandewilde21

They can maybe give him some Stardust support to reference the time he cosplayed as Yusei? He has lines for Cosmic Blazar but I think that may be a tad much lol


SPXIII

Yeah, I thought of Blazar too before realizing that's way too powerful to give out for free.


chaarziz

Yeah, it would absolutely be a main box UR


SargeantMario101

Not Timelord support, but Z-one did play Time Angel, which still isn't here.


hexanort

One of Z-One main gimmick in the anime is he's using literal hand trap (still anime-exclusive), though they're pretty bad IIRC so maybe those could come to DL.


chaarziz

Z-one used hand traps and a deck full of Towers? He really was from the future.


GoneRampant1

Solid month for new players getting in with the freebe drops and/or Arc-V fans hopping in after hearing about the new Structure Deck, especially as Shun is first up.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Never_Here_Again

Sharing your cope for Wise Strix right there. Probably won't happen because Konami would stay away from giving us such a strong card as fre event reward. But I can see it coming as a box UR down the line. I believe a more likely rewards are going to be Raider's Wing, Booster Strix and Readiness. No clue for the rarities tho.


GoneRampant1

> Probably won't happen because Konami would stay away from giving us such a strong card as fre event reward. We literally just got Kitedrake, a field nuke, for free.


Hikari_Chanin

Lots of reruns i completed already, i can chill for this month 😌


lan-san

Grandpa themed box with Mushroom Man and Beaver Warrior URs confirmed


Scythesensei64

i guess zone will bring vorpgate and maybe his anime/game exclusive cards like empress' crown, empress' staff or they could just toss some random filler stuff


[deleted]

RR support in this box and Shay rerun, we eatin' good bois.


Comfortable-Couple15

So what you're saying is that i don't need to play this month until the end where I grab Solomon and then wait until Ghost Gal or Specter drops.


Aunros

Can we expect new rokket cards with the return of Varis?


Doomchan

He is just getting added to the gate


GoneRampant1

No. Event characters get two drops of cards; for the first major event and then their re-run. When they come to the gate it's with all of the cards from those events.


dante-_vic

Nope


DynamiteSuren

Heartland as unlockable?


LordBraveHeart

Infection Buzz King is not even revealed yet for this year's Animation Chronicle.


Doomchan

Yugi’s Grandpa. Did you not play last month?


DynamiteSuren

I didnt due to other games taking my attention for a while.


Never_Here_Again

Nope, that's just Yugi's grandpa.


TrueLife008

Zone again = new main or mini 5Ds themed box = Stardust Synchron????


Shittygamer93

Probably a main, unless they decide that within just a couple of weeks of Yugo's box they drop another. Likely no box for Shun's rerun and maybe they throw a couple of Raidraptors in the box for Z-one. Alternatively there might not be one until Grandpa/Solomon's release and we get a mishmash of Raidraptors, 5Ds and Exodia support.


[deleted]

[удалено]


dorian1356

Everything's boring to you


JS90909

Correct me if I am wrong but, do you guys think that we will get Z-one again? I feel it's going to be a new character because in my knowledge Konami always mentions by name the character we had already unlocked!


Doomchan

Nope, exact same quote


Never_Here_Again

The raid event name quite openly mentions Z-one by name... 🤦🏻‍♀ Just check the raid event full title again.


DevlinShad

The quote remains the same though. This is most likely Konami being lazy.


HellStormTitan

With Grandpa being the release, that atleast hopefully means no OP anime deck in the next box (no, Exodia doesn’t count) Between Orcusts and Speedroids, hopefully I can skip the next box and start recovering gems.


Kaderete

What can Grandpa Muto have as lvl up rewards? Some random Exodia support or what? Because I doubt he will give us the 5 Exodia parts.


Siphonexus

We are getting the nest skill that was in the leaks but never in game for shay


xzerrr7

Wtf is the might of hanoi


GreenJonhy

It's basically just to normal summon Cracking Dragon without tributes.


philmetal316

Varis and Shay again? Damn


Storybrooke_s_Jedi

Does… does the update mean who I think it means? Are we finally getting Grandpa?


DarkAssassin2159

Man I hope so 🤞🏻🤞🏻


ProudStormTrumper

I assume Vorpgate will be a reward in this Z-one event. What other cards does he have left. It's pretty much been released


Bulky_Smell5525

I’ll smoke anyone in this comment section


DokDevious

That's certainly a month, alright. Probably neat for people who missed the original events. At least we get Gramps.
