Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel: Solo Mode Guide

The Yugioh Master Duel Solo mode is the true player vs computer experience in the new official simulator. Although it’s a way for players to re-learn the game, experienced players should not sleep on it either since it can jumpstart new accounts with some seriously good rewards. Here is a quick guide that shows players what the solo mode entails and what players are playing for.

What is Yugioh Master Duel Solo mode

The Yugioh Master Duel solo mode is a series of lore-based challenges that pit the player against the AI in many different duels that depict battles straight from the stories themselves. Players are given “loaner” decks which they will need to use to defeat the various AI throughout the campaign. These decks are not the best but are good enough to defeat the AI. Once a player defeats each story with the loaner deck, they are allowed to use their actual deck for greater rewards.
