Skill (スキル, Sukiru) is a special rule characteristic of Speed Duels featured in Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links and the Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS anime.

Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS

In Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS, Skills are special effects that each player can use only once per Duel. They may possess a number of effects, like improving a draw, increasing one's LP or enhancing a monster's ATK.[1] They can be used during either player's turn.[2] Skills appear to be procedurally generated, though rather than being generated randomly like they would be in real-world video games, they appear to be generated to fit a Duelist's Deck and/or Dueling style. As seen with Playmaker and Varis, multiple Duelists can share a given Skill.

If two or more Duelists combine their LINK VRAINS avatars into one and play a Duel as that combined avatar, their avatar will have access to each of those players' Skills during that Duel and can use each Skill once. This technically enables a single Duelist within that Duel to use multiple Skills, beyond the normal "once per Duel" limit. (This is because the game considers each player to be using their own individual Skill once per Duel.) For example, Bit and Boot were able to use Marker's Portal twice during their Duel with Soulburner, since their avatars were combined into BitBoot.[3]

Skills can be hacked to do previously unheard-of abilities, such as the Double Draw Skill used by a Knight of Hanoi.

List of Skills

If the user has 1000 or less LP, they can access a Link Monster at random from a nearby Data Storm and add it to their Extra Deck.[1] The more intense the Data Storm, the stronger the obtained Link Monster will be.[4] The obtained card can then be materialized in the real world with the proper equipment.[5] Storm Access.png

Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links

In Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links, each character can assign one Skill to each of their Decks. Non-player characters normally do not use Skills, but they occasionally do during special events.

Each character can unlock 3 Skills by leveling up. Characters can also obtain Skills as drops when defeating any Duelists (in the past, Skill drops were exclusive to defeating Legendary Duelistss). One Skill, Joey Wheeler's Fields of the Warriors, is obtained from Mission Bingo.

In the current version of the game, it is not possible for a Duelists to drop a Skill that the currently selected character had already obtained. In older versions of the game, however, Skills from a previous drop could still be dropped, but they were automatically converted into 15 Gems instead. (In a somewhat later update, this was changed to a random drop of 5, 10, or 15 Gems.)

Along with the game's Forbidden and Limited lists, Skill effects are subject to change to maintain balance.

The Duel Links Legend Deck Guide listed certain Skills as suggestions for casual play using the Legend Decks in the guide.

Duel Links Legend Deck Guide

The Duel Links Legend Deck Guide included three different sets of three skills: Yami Yugi skills, Seto Kaiba skills, and generic skills.

Differences Between the Anime and Duel Links

In the anime, if the use of a certain Skill would cause a certain effect to meet its activation requirement, that effect can be activated normally after the Skill has finished being applied. For example, discarding "Trickstar Mandrake" in order to use her Trickstar Fraud Skill allowed Aoi Zaizen to activate Mandrake's Trigger Effect afterward.

In Duel Links, however, Skills are designed not to interact with any card effects that would be triggered by the Skill's usage. As such, immediately after a Skill is applied, the game proceeds to an open game state, leaving no chance for any effects to be activated in response to the Skill (even mandatory Trigger Effects). The only exception to this was the Skill Last Gamble, which allowed effects triggered by its discarding to be activated after the player drew the cards per the die result. This was, however, fixed in a later update.
