Konami released Yu-Gi-Oh Master Duel recently and has broken records with how many players have registered and remain playing. Yu-Gi-Oh Master Duel joins the franchise, allowing online multiplayer and cross-platform play. The game consists of both casual and ranked competitive play that all players can choose to partake in. In addition, the game has a fluent deck building system and an RNG-based or "Gacha" system for obtaining cards.
For hard-to-obtain cards, there is a crafting system in place that players can use to create the cards they are having a hard time finding in packs. Players can customize their deck boxes, playing fields, and duelist cards. With Master Duel's release on gaming consoles, there are also a number of achievements available to be unlocked for bragging rights. Only top-tier players will be able to unlock all the achievements and claim the trophies for their collection. Here are all the trophies and achievements in Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel and how to unlock them.
11 Welcome to Master Duel - Bronze - Common
The first achievement players will unlock after they start Yu-gi-oh Master Duel will be “Welcome to master duel." To unlock this achievement, the player must register a "player name" that will show up on their duelist card and the Duel UI; players of previous Yu-Gi-Oh games will be familiar with thi s. Players should take some time and think it over to choose a name that really stands out, but if players do not like the name they chose, they can change it later on. There are thousands of players logging in to put their decks to the test, so be sure to pick something that stands out.
10 Come Forth… - Bronze - Ultra Rare
The “Come Forth…” achievement can be unlocked by tribute summoning a total of twenty or more monsters while participating in Ranked or Event Duel. Tribute summoning is performed by sacrificing lower-level monsters (level four and under) for stronger, higher-level monsters.
The amount needed to summon higher-level monsters varies, depending on the level of the monster the player wishes to summon. For example, monsters of levels five and six require one tribute to be summoned, while monsters of levels seven and higher require two tributes, unless otherwise specified by their effect. Summoning higher-level monsters is a must to do well in Yu-Gi-Oh Master Duel -- they possess game-changing effects and beautiful Card artwork.
9 Master Of Special Summoning - Bronze - Very rare
The “Master Of Special Summoning” achievement can be unlocked by Special Summoning a total of fifty or more monsters while participating in Ranked or Event duel. Special Summoning is a prominent strategy in Yu-Gi-Oh, and there are several ways to do so. Usually, a Special Summon occurs because of a spell or monster card’s effect, stating a certain type or Archetype of a card can be summoned to the field by meeting that card's parameters. On more specific occasions, card effects allow the player to Special Summon freely, leading to powerful combos in the game.
8 Chain Blazer - Bronze - Ultra Rare
The “Chain Blazer” achievement can be unlocked by making an effect chain of five or more effect including effects triggered by your opponent while participating in Ranked or Event duels. A Chain occurs in Yu-Gi-Oh when multiple cards or effects are activated in succession before a previous card or effect ends. The Chain dictates the order of resolution in a numerical stack until all effects are accounted for. Once no more cards or effects are activated, the chain resolves in descending order. Some of the weirdest Yu-Gi-Oh cards revolve around chains that make it hard to counter strategies in the game.
7 Let's Duel - Bronze - Ultra Rare
To unlock the “Lets Duel” achievement, a player must declare a total of one hundred or more attacks to monsters while participating in Ranked or Event duel. Attacking in Yu-Gi-Oh is a basic feature but can only be done while in the Battle Phase of the attacking player's turn (unless otherwise specified by a card's effect).
Remember, players must attack a monster for the attack to count toward unlocking this achievement; attacking a player directly will not count.
6 Beginner No More - silver - Very Rare
The “Beginner No More” achievement can be unlocked by playing more than thirty duels in Ranked duel. Participating in Ranked duel is very lucrative for players. It allows players to complete missions to receive the in-game currency and is the only way to level up the Yu-Gi-Oh Master Duel battle pass reward system. Completing matches in ranked will reward the player with currency, so they can purchase packs from the game’s shop and unlock new cards and secret packs and continue the process. Be aware that players do not qualify for their rewards when they surrender.
5 Masters Of Spells And Traps - Silver - Ultra Rare
To unlock the “Master Of Spells and traps” achievement, players must activate over one hundred spells and or traps while participating in Ranked or Event duel. A Spell or Trap can be placed face up or face down on the field.
Spells can be activated on the user's turn normally; some Spells can be activated on the opponents. Trap cards must be set on the field face-down before they can be activated; most are activated on the opponent's turn to counter the opponent's play. Trap cards are some of the most powerful cards in the game that punish the opponent just for trying to play the game.
4 Ultra Burst - Silver - Very Rare
The “Ultra Burst” achievement can be unlocked by dealing four thousand or more damage to an opponent in a single duel to win the game while participating in Ranked or Event duel. To perform this task, the player must attack their opponent directly.
This can only be done if your opponent has no other monsters on the field and no Trap Card or effects that prevent direct attack damage currently on the field. In addition, the player must have several strong monsters on the field to equate enough damage, but the Yu-Gi-Oh Card Game is full of strong monsters, so they won't be hard to find.
3 Necromancer - Silver - Ultra Rare
To unlock the “Necromancer” achievement in Yu-Gi-Oh Master Duel, the player must Special Summon fifty or more monsters from the graveyard while participating in Ranked or Event duel. A Special Summon is initiated by a card's effect. To Special Summon from the graveyard, a player must have a card that allows this play.
Spell cards such as Monster Reborn can do this easily; there are even multiple monster cards that have this effect allowing the player to replay the effect several times showing how much Yu-Gi-Oh has changed since its creation.
2 Burn It All - Silver - Ultra Rare
The “Burn it All” achievement can be unlocked by dealing over one-hundred-thousand damage using card effects while participating in either Ranked or Event duel. Some Spell and Trap card effects are simple to deal direct damage without the need of a monster cards attack.
A player may fill their deck with these cards and win the game without needing to even summon a monster. However, some monster cards can cause direct damage if certain costs or parameters are met, along with a long list of other card effects, making these monsters especially dangerous . Many times cards that are too powerful and ruin the state of play are banned, but there is hope that they are altered so that can return to the Yu-Gi-Oh card game.
