Starting Tips

Find Cards with Synergy Easy

When building your deck to use in duels you should check to see which cards have synergy. In Yu-Gi-Oh! Legacy of the Duelist you can do this easily when you are in the Deck Editor and viewing a card by just pressing the R button to view releated cards. This feature will reveal all the cards that hve some synergy with your chosen card and will make it a lot easier to find support cards for key monster or archetypes.

Take advantage of this feature when building decks around key monsters as it allows you to quickly see what support cards you have in your deck along with those you should have. If you do not have the card it enables you to get a name so you can look up to see which packs it comes in.

Focus on Building One Strong Deck First

When you begin playing Yu-Gi-Oh! Legacy of the Duelist you won't have many cards in your trunk. It is not until you start earning DP from duels and start spending it on card packs and getting rewards from victories that your card collection will begin to grow.

Make a note of what kinds of decks your opponents use and then start putting together a deck which you think will be effective against them. To start with you should focus on building one very good deck for the purpose of getting you through a lot of duels quickly so you can easily grind them for DP. Once you have accumulated a lot of cards and are bored with your original deck it is then time to build another deck or experiment with the cards you have.

Make sure when you are putting together your decks you use the 'Related Cards' feature in the Deck Editor to see what cards have synergy and go well with the cards you want to build a deck with. You will go further in the game if you have one strong deck as opposed to several half-finished decks.

Spending DP on Character Booster Packs

Once you know what kind of deck you want to put together you will want to make sure that you spend your DP on the right character packs. Booster Packs are available in the Card Shop of Yu-Gi-Oh! Legacy of the Duelist. Each Booster Pack is divided by the anime series they are based on, and depict a character from that series. Each individual pack, with the exception of the Grandpa Muto pack, costs 400 DP and contains 8 cards - any 7 Commons and 1 Rare.

If you are new to the game and unsure which Booster Packs to buy we reccommend Joey for Red Eyes and Jinzo cards, Kaiba for Blue Eyes cards, and Yugi for Dark Magician and spellcaster support. If you are after Exodia pieces and other general staple cards then get Yugi's Grandpa packs.
