When 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel was first announced, Konami boasted there would be over 10,000 cards in the game. Of course, a lot of newer cards released during development have not been added to the game yet, but likely will be added through updates. And like previous online Yu-Gi-Oh! games, there are cards that are banned in ranked and event duels, but they're still available to use in private matches.
Ho🎀wever, ther📖e are a number of older cards missing that may never make it into the game, sometimes for entirely understandable reasons and other times for completely unknown or unclear reasons.
10 🀅 Convulsion Of Nature
The Spell Card Convulsion Of Nature is the only Yu-Gi-Oh! card of its kind, forcing both players to turn their decks upside-down and stay that way for as long as it remains on the field. It's understandable why this card wouldn't be in the game, as it could be difficult to program with just how many cards and how much deck variety there is in Master Duel. Despite this, Convulsion Of Nature has been in 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Yu-Gi-Oh! video games before, first appearing in the Nintendo DS game Nightmare Tro🃏ubadour in 2005, with its last appearance being in Yu-Gi-Oh! Legacy Of The Duelist: Link Evolution.
9 Question
Question is a Spell Card that prevents the opponent from checking cards in the Graveyard, then has them guess what the monster at the bottom of the player's Graveyard is. If guessed correctly, that monster is banished, but if the opponent guessed wrong, that monster is Special Summoned to the player's side of the field. Once again, it's understandable why Question isn't available in Master Duel due to the sheer number of cards present in the game. Question has been in Yu-Gi-Oh! video games before, most recently Legacy Of The Duelist Link Evolution, so it's still strange that Master Duel was the first time they decided not to include it.
8 Pole Position ꦛ
Pole Position is a Trap Card possibly named after the Namco game of the same name, and outside the physical card game, it has only ever appeared in one game — Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's Decade Duels Plus for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. Pole Position prevents the monster on the field with the highest attack points from being affected by Spell Cards, and when Pole Position is removed from the field, the face-up monster or monsters with the highest attack points are destroyed. It seems like a standard effect but can cause an infinite loop when combined with some attack-boosting cards. Konami probably didn't want to deal with it to avoid that possibility.
7 Transmission Gear ꧑
Transmission Gear is a Trap Card where the player plays rock-paper-scissors with their opponent during damage calculation when their monsters battle. Whoever loses must then banish their monster face-down, which is a strange effect since both players would already know what the banished monster is. Since rock-paper-scissors mechanics have been present in previous Yu-Gi-Oh! video games as a way to select which player gets the first turn, Transmission Gear could be more easily included in those games. Master Duel loses the rock-paper-scissors turn selection mechanic in favor of a coin flip, a mechanic that a more sꦿignificant number of cards already use.
6 Bait Doll
Bait Doll is a Spell Card that forces the player or opponent☂ to reveal and activate a targeted card in their Spell & Trap card zone, then negates the effect and destroys the card if it is a Trap Card and the timing is incorrect but returns the targeted card to face-down position if not.
After Bait Doll has resolved, it is also shuffled back into the deck instead of being sent to the Graveyard. Due to Bait Doll's first effect, it can help the player activate a Trap Card as soon as possible instead of waiting longer to activate it. Bait Doll was most recently in Link Evolution, so it's unclear why it isn't in Master Duel.
5 🙈 Spirit Elimination 🌱
Spirit Elimination is a Spell Card that lets the player use monsters on their side of the field as substitutes to be banished instead of monsters in their Graveyard, and it remains active until the end of the turn it was activated. Because many newer monsters have effects that activate when they're banished, and the player can use Spirit Elimination's effect until the end of the turn, it makes some sense why it wouldn't be included in Master Duel. But why not just have it on the ban list instead of not having it in the game at all? Maybe Konami felt it was too unfair despite its appearance in previous games.
4 Spellbinding Circle 🌄
Spellbinding Circle is a classic 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Trap Card that has been around since the earliest days of Yu-Gi-Oh! and was once a Spell Card in the OCG and some early Yu-Gi-Oh! video games. Spellbinding Circle allows the player to target one of their opponent's monsters and prevent it from attacking or changing its battle position. Once the targeted monster has been destroyed, Spellbinding Circle is also destroyed.
It is completely unknown why Spellbinding Circle is not present in Master Duel, as it has been in many other Yu-Gi-Oh! video games before. Spellbinding Circle could still be added in the future, but it's still confusing that it has been missing.
3 🐭 Shuttleroid
Shuttleroid is a monster of the Roid archetype used by the character Syrus Truesdale, or Sho Marufuji in the Japanese version, of the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Yu-Gi-Oh! GX anime and manga series. When Shuttleroid is targeted for an attack, the player can banish it and then Special Summon it during their next Standby Phase. When summoned this way, Shuttleroid also causes 1000 points of effect damage to the player. As of writing, Shuttleroid has only been released in Japan and seems to have not appeared in any video games despite releasing in 2007. Interestingly enough, all other cards from Premium Pack 11 are available in Master Duel but are all Forbiℱdden other than Carrierroid.
2 🐲 Shiba-Warrior Taro
Shiba-Warrior Taro isn't the only card with art drawn and signed by Yu-Gi-Oh! creator Kazuki Takahashi that isn't available in Master Duel, but it is one of the oldest not available in the game, and unlike the others, it has appeared in Yu-Gi-Oh! video games before. Taro is based on Takahashi's dog and cannot be destroyed by battle. There might be specific copyright issues with Shiba-Warrior Taro and other cards with exclusive art by Kazuki Takahashi. Still, one would think it would be easier to include cards with art by the creator of the franchise.
1 Elemental Hero Air Neos🥃
The exclusion of Elemental Hero Air Neos is one of the most baffling Yu-Gi-Oh! mysteries. Air Neos is one of many fusions featuring 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Elemental Hero Neos combine🍸d with a Neo-Spacian monster, in this case, Neo-Spacian Air Hummingbird. Not only is Air Neos not present in Master Duel or Duel Links, but it also has not been reprinted since 2007. It does not appear in the art of the Spell Card Instant Contact either, which features Neos and all his Neo-Spacian fusions, and is based on an image from the third season opening of Yu-Gi-Oh! GX. The most prominent theory is that there are unspecified copyright issues, but nothing has been confirmed.
