It’s a shame that the card list for Legacy of the Duelist is so outdated now, especially with Master Duel becoming the go-to for online meta Yu-Gi-Oh! matches. That said, I honestly think Legacy of the Duelist is the most fun for casual fans—especially for people who want to emulate the anime’s iconic duels in the actual trading card game. Previous Yu-Gi-Oh! games have tried to do this to some degree, but they often relied on gimmicks, forced you to insert your own deck, or made you grind like crazy just to face tougher opponents from the series. What makes Legacy of the Duelist so great is how it lets you relive all the major duels from the original anime up to VRAINS. Both you and your opponent use 40-card decks that are as close as possible to the real cards the characters used in the shows. That was such a cool feature—it’s easily my favorite implementation of the anime's card game rules. I don’t know how many other people got into Yu-Gi-Oh! games specifically to emulate the anime matches, but for me, this is the closest any game has come to pulling it off—and it does it so well. That’s why it’s my favorite Yu-Gi-Oh! video game overall. Sure, other games like 5D’s Championship let you self-insert into the plot, and classics like Forbidden Memories or Duelist of the Roses have unique mechanics, but this one hits differently. As someone who got into the Yu-Gi-Oh! card game through the anime, being able to relive all six series I watched in card game form is just awesome. Even though the game gives you preset decks for the anime duels, you can still customize your own deck if you’d rather grind for cards instead of focusing on the anime experience. That said, the grind for cards is the main flaw of this game—but honestly, that’s been an issue with pretty much every Yu-Gi-Oh! game. You have to keep opening packs (like in real life) to collect 100% of the cards available in Legacy of the Duelist. I played the Switch version, and man, it was a grindfest. RNG and spamming story or challenge fights made it way more tedious than it needed to be. If I replay this game, it’ll be just to re-simulate the anime duels, which is super easy to do and the main reason I love and recommend this game.

This game fulfilled a life long question of mine at 28 years old - How would a deck constructed by me hold up against the pharaoh himself. While using all retro cards, The answer was about 2 turns because Yami Yugi's deck was built on hopes and dreams and the only world where he is the king of games is in the animator's mind. Thank you to the creators for giving us the perfect Yu Gi Oh sim.

It's out dated compared to more recent games and is pretty dead when it comes to MP. But it's a fun SP experience, especially if you're a yugi-boomer like me who played the game from 2002 thru 2005-ish as a kid, tried getting back in a few years post-edison and couldn't do it because the new mechanics turned me off. I hear Link Evolution is cool for SP as well, has cards up through 2018 and can be modded to expand the experience. But if you're looking for multiplayer I think the f2p master duel game is where you should go as long as you don't mind shelling out cash or grinding to catch up with the current meta.

I spent 100k dp on Grandpa Muto packs, still don't have full collection of the cards. Only 32 slots for custom decks. Story campaign is pretty cool, character decks are hit or miss. Otherwise it's a Yugioh, pretty much what you can do yugioh stuff. 19,99 is a decent price for what you're getting, sale will make you feel even better.
