The '''Duelist Cup''' is one of the most competitive events in ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel]]''. It has had three iterations: 9 — 21 Aug 2022, 8 — 19 Dec 2022, 15 — 26 Mar 2023.
+
'''Duelist Cup''' was an event that took place in ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel]]'' from 9 August 2022, 04:30 (EDT) through 22 August 2022, 00:59 (EDT).

Unlike all other [[Event Duel (Master Duel)|Events]], it has no Loaners or deckbuilding restrictions, instead offering players to bring their best. The Forbidden/Limited list would follow the Standard in-game legality list at the time. The Duel time limit is set to 300 seconds.
+
This event was split into 2 Stages: the 1st Stage and the 2nd Stage. At the start of the event, all players began in the 1st Stage, with a DLv. corresponding to the rank they had by the end of Ranked Duel Season 7,<ref group="Notes">This season took place in Ranked Duels, from 30 June 2022, 21:00 (EDT) through 31 July 2022, 18:59 (EDT).</ref> as follows:
 +
* Diamond: DLv. 10
 +
* Platinum: DLv. 7
 +
* Gold: DLv. 5
 +
* Silver: DLv. 3
 +
* Bronze & Rookie: DLv. 1
 +
In this event, each player had a time limit of 300 seconds for their actions in each Duel (with a 60-second [[wikipedia:Time control#Bronstein delay|Bronstein delay]] every 2 turns), adjusted from the usual 480 seconds at the time.
  
−
Players all begin within Stage 1 that lasts for the whole duration of the event, and repeated wins allow them to increase their Duelist Level (DLv). Players who ended the previous Ranked season in higher ranks will start at a higher DLv. DLv will not decrease with losses until the player has reached DLv 15, and a player cannot de-rank below DLv 17 or 20 if they have reached that point..
+
=== 1st Stage ===
 +
In order to pass through the 1st Stage and enter the 2nd Stage, players had to Duel other players present in the event's 1st Stage and reach DLv. MAX (aka, DLv. 20). Players increased their DLv. by winning their Duels (in increments of 1 DLv. at a time), but if they lost a certain number of Duels within their last several Duels, their DLv. would be reduced by 1 instead. Players would not have their DLv. reduced at any point from 2-15, nor from 17 or 20 (once attained). The exact number of wins or losses needed to alter one's DLv. was unknown, but in general, 3 consecutive losses would lead to a reduction, while an increase required 1-5 more wins than the number of losses a player incurred at their current DLv. (excluding excess consecutive losses that would normally reduce a player's DLv.).{{fact}}
  
−
Within the final three days of the event, Stage 2 will become available to anyone who has reached DLv 20. Players in stage 2 battle others to increase their own score. Rewards earned in Stage 2 are purely cosmetic.
+
=== 2nd Stage ===
 +
If a player reached DLv. MAX (aka, DLv. 20) in the 1st Stage, they had to wait until 19 August 2022, 01:00 (EDT) before they could enter the 2nd Stage.
  
−
==Rewards==
+
Once in the 2nd Stage, players had until 21 August 2022, 01:00 (EDT) to earn as much DP in the event as possible, before the event ended, whereupon rankings were tallied (by calculating players' DP) and rewards were distributed based on final rankings. Players could only earn DP by Dueling other players present in the 2nd Stage; correspondingly, losing Duels would cost players a portion of their DP. The amount of DP gained/lost from a Duel depended on the difference in DP between a player and their opponent, with a minimum of 1000 DP always earned for the winning player, and a maximum of 1200 DP lost for the losing player. In general, when facing a higher-ranked opponent, more DP would be earned for defeating them and less DP would be lost for losing to that opponent; correspondingly, less DP would be earned by defeating a lower-ranked opponent, and more DP would be lost for losing to them.{{fact}} Additionally, players with 9000 or less DP would not lose much DP if they were defeated.
−
::''Rewards may vary slightly between each iteration''
 
  
−
Depending on the player's Rank that they ended the previous Ranked season in, they begin at a higher starting DLv and automatically earn all rewards from previous DLv:
+
=== Rankings ===
−
* '''Silver''': DLv 3
+
For players who reached the 2nd Stage, their rankings would be displayed according to their amount of earned DP, with the top-earners being placed first.
−
* '''Gold''': DLv 5
+
 
−
* '''Platnium''': DLv 7
+
If multiple players finished the event with the same amount of DP, the tie-breaker for each of those rankings would be determined by the number of wins each tied player had. If there were still tied players with the same amount of wins, that tie-breaker would be determined by the number of losses each still-tied player had. By the end of this decisive criteria, if there were still multiple people with the same ranking, only one of those players would appear in the overall ranking.
−
* '''Diamond''': DLv 10

Fight against Duelists from all over the world to become the very best!

Duelist Cup was an event that took place in Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel from 9 August 2022, 04:30 (EDT) through 22 August 2022, 00:59 (EDT).

Event details

This event was split into 2 Stages: the 1st Stage and the 2nd Stage. At the start of the event, all players began in the 1st Stage, with a DLv. corresponding to the rank they had by the end of Ranked Duel Season 7,[Notes 1] as follows:

  • Diamond: DLv. 10
  • Platinum: DLv. 7
  • Gold: DLv. 5
  • Silver: DLv. 3
  • Bronze & Rookie: DLv. 1

In this event, each player had a time limit of 300 seconds for their actions in each Duel (with a 60-second Bronstein delay every 2 turns), adjusted from the usual 480 seconds at the time.

1st Stage

In order to pass through the 1st Stage and enter the 2nd Stage, players had to Duel other players present in the event's 1st Stage and reach DLv. MAX (aka, DLv. 20). Players increased their DLv. by winning their Duels (in increments of 1 DLv. at a time), but if they lost a certain number of Duels within their last several Duels, their DLv. would be reduced by 1 instead. Players would not have their DLv. reduced at any point from 2-15, nor from 17 or 20 (once attained). The exact number of wins or losses needed to alter one's DLv. was unknown, but in general, 3 consecutive losses would lead to a reduction, while an increase required 1-5 more wins than the number of losses a player incurred at their current DLv. (excluding excess consecutive losses that would normally reduce a player's DLv.).[citation needed]

2nd Stage

If a player reached DLv. MAX (aka, DLv. 20) in the 1st Stage, they had to wait until 19 August 2022, 01:00 (EDT) before they could enter the 2nd Stage.

Once in the 2nd Stage, players had until 21 August 2022, 01:00 (EDT) to earn as much DP in the event as possible, before the event ended, whereupon rankings were tallied (by calculating players' DP) and rewards were distributed based on final rankings. Players could only earn DP by Dueling other players present in the 2nd Stage; correspondingly, losing Duels would cost players a portion of their DP. The amount of DP gained/lost from a Duel depended on the difference in DP between a player and their opponent, with a minimum of 1000 DP always earned for the winning player, and a maximum of 1200 DP lost for the losing player. In general, when facing a higher-ranked opponent, more DP would be earned for defeating them and less DP would be lost for losing to that opponent; correspondingly, less DP would be earned by defeating a lower-ranked opponent, and more DP would be lost for losing to them.[citation needed] Additionally, players with 9000 or less DP would not lose much DP if they were defeated.

Rankings

For players who reached the 2nd Stage, their rankings would be displayed according to their amount of earned DP, with the top-earners being placed first.

If multiple players finished the event with the same amount of DP, the tie-breaker for each of those rankings would be determined by the number of wins each tied player had. If there were still tied players with the same amount of wins, that tie-breaker would be determined by the number of losses each still-tied player had. By the end of this decisive criteria, if there were still multiple people with the same ranking, only one of those players would appear in the overall ranking.

Rewards

1st Stage

Upon reaching a certain DLv. for the first time in the event, players would earn a corresponding DLv. Up Reward, as follows:
