I hope it helps you out, back in my day before GameFAQs was made we had to walk uphill both ways in the snow, barefoot, for miles just to get some help on a Yu-Gi-Oh. Sheesh. Anywho, this is only my 2nd FAQ, so it's not perfect, (if you have any suggestions or tips on how I can make it better, and not so... boring, please let me know [see contact section]) but I did try to make it easy for you kids and your fancy CTRL+F watchamawhodinky. I'm just kidding, I'm really not that old, but if you're looking for any specific character you should have too much trouble if you search for the name, I've included all the deck mods I made to the various characters, as well as the decks I personally used during the storyline, if you're looking for a specific deck theme, you can probably search for that, I did not use any abbreviations, so instead of GB's, you will have to type Gladiator Beasts. Um... I think I'm done here. _______________________________________________________________________________ ~Section 2.0 - Copyright Info / Legal Jargon~ Copyright Jeremy M.

Note: In order to unlock an event, the character's heart MUST be pink. It will look full at a point in time while increasing, but it will be red. This is NOT accepted by the game as a full heart. 1. Talking - You can partake in 3 different mini-games with your partner, a nd every positive interaction will increase his/her heart meter. 1a. Talking about Cards: This is a test of your knowledge, you will be shown a picture of a card, (just the graphic, no other information) and be given 3 choices to the right of said card, with a question. Ex: (Pic of Blue Eyes White Dragon, Q: What is the name of this card? Options: Triangle - Dark Magician, Circle - Blue Eyes White Dragon, X - Red Eyes B. Dragon, you would hit the Circle button and you're partners heart meter would increase. As the level increases, the difficulty of the questions increase. 1b. Talking about Dueling: This is a weird form of Rock-Paper-Scissors, in which you are presented with a statement from your partner, and 3 emotions. Triangle is Angry/Rock, Circle is Cry/Paper, and X is Smile/Scissors, gradually the picture to the left of the screen will reveal itself, showing you the other persons 'play', you would select the winning hand. As the level increases, your opponents hand will start to reveal itself in sections, and in wider gaps. The more time you have left before correctly answering, (the little bar below the picture), the bigger increase you get. Note: If you 'tie' your partner, their heart level will still increase, but only by a little bit. 1c. Talking about Them: On this screen you see a 3x3 grid of text boxes with different 'levels of success' written in them. These range from Evil to Very Good, your goal here is to use Square and Circle to place 'ladders' for your bar to follow and connect to as many Very Good's (or Good's, less effect but still positive) as you can. You will now where your bar starts by watching the the boxes above your grid before your time starts counting down. As the level increases, you are presented with less time, and you also will start to get some ladders already present on the grid, making it slightly more difficult. Notes: This is very effective depending on the situation. The outcome of these mini-games is highly dependant on your Partner's mood. Skull is the worst, and your actions will have little bearing on your opponent, this proceeds to the little Japanese Anime annoyed symbol, which is hard to describe, then to "...", then a little Music Note, and Finally a Heart. With your Partner's mood and interests maxed out, you can easily clear about half a heart with this method alone. 2. Gifts: You can buy items from the item machine,or recieve items otherwise, and give them to your partner. Depending on his/her likes/dislikes, his/her mood/heart meters will increase/decrease. (OMG! That is a lot of /'s.) Notes: This is effective when used in conjunction with the previous method. Giving your chosen partner gifts will sometimes allow you to speak with them more, it can also raise their mood so the speaking has bigger effect. The combination of these two is what I mainly used. 3. Partnership: You can invite your partner to tag along with you for the day, and every positive interaction you have with any character will also get credited to your Partner's Heart. Notes: This is a great way to level up your partner's 3rd heart, (assuming you partnered with him/her to get the right to a Deck Edit) and is very effective in that you don't risk having any negatives influence their heart meter. (Positives are credited while Negatives are ignored!) This is also good if you wish to save some DP on items, as you can talk to several different people, and get your partner credited for all of the conversations. 4. Other: This consists of the MC, and and Bolyston, both which have a chance of increasing your partner's heart meter. Notes: Obviously not recommended, but if you happen to find either of them running around, no reason not to take a shot at it. (Especially the MC, who can also give you various other prizes.) _______________________________________________________________________________ ~Section 5.0 - Strategies for getting DP~ I'm not going to list all of them like I did in the previous section, but I am going to discuss a few different ways you can go about this. First and foremost, I'd like to mention the tournaments. They are all tag tournaments, but they give out pretty big prizes on top of the regular match DP. This would most definitely be my preffered method, the only downside being that you can only really do this once you have a good partner to work with, (preferabbly someone whose deck you can edit.) So you have to already have established a decent deck as well. I recommend trying to synch up with either Jack, Akiza, or Crow, and using the respective Suggested Deck Edits and Deck Strategies listed below. Otherwise, you can duel around randomly which also works fine, or you can try to find the MC or Blister, both of which have a chance of providing you with free DP. _______________________________________________________________________________ Section 6.0 - Unlockables I am not sure exactly how to unlock each individual duelist, I didn't keep track for the sake of getting some confused. (Thinking Y is unlocked by beating X's Storyline, but Y is really unlocked by beating Z number of storylines), but for your sake, here are the UMD recognition unlocks, as well as how to unlock the different packs. New ~ Added in a few character stories that I was able to confirm. A.

The card you earn (completion of each storyline results in various rewards). My Suggested Strategy (S.S.), admittedly usually whatever I felt like using at the time, (Whatever the S.S says, it's referring to the pre-made decks that I have listed below, named the same thing.) and/or with that specific partner, and difficulty ratings out of 5. The difficulty ratings are based on my experience with that event, you may have a hard time where I got insanely lucky, or vice-versa, obviously you're not going to end up with the same exact hand(s) I did. I've also included brief comments on the actual duel, some are just tips, some rambling, but they are all advice nonetheless, it was hard to write any comments on the easier ones, but the ones I had more trouble with usually will tell you what gave me trouble, and ideas to counter it. I'd also like to mention the fact that when you beat the storylines of all four signers, (Yusei Fudo,Jack Atlas, Akiza Izinski, and Luna, you are rewarded with the ability to add one forbidden card to your deck. Yusei Fudo's (Signer) Story Card: 3x Stardust Dragon S.S.: Any Random Meta Really, doesn't matter too much. (I used Gladiator Beasts, though it's not typically a good idea, because Yusei obviously doesn't have any Gladiators. 1. You and Yusei tag duel against Officer Trudge (Dark Signer) and a Security Officer. Difficulty: 3/5 Not much trouble to be found here, Yusei is suprisingly capable of taking care of himself for the most part, just try to maintain field presence and card advantage. 2. You and Yusei tag duel against Akiza Izinski and Jack Atlas. Difficulty: 3/5 This one's a little tricky, as both of your opponents are capable of summoning tough monsters rather early, and in the case of Akiza, repeatedly. If you start with a Lightning Vortex, Mirror Force, Torrential Tribute, etc., you're in good shape, just make sure to hold on to it for the most opportune moment, (hitting Akiza right after she swarms really hits her card advantage) 3. You and Yusei tag duel against Kalin Kesler (Dark Signer) and Officer Trudge (Dark Signer) Difficulty: 3/5 Don't let Kalin get an empty hand at all, especially if he has Infernity Guardian or the means to summon Hundred Eyed Dragon, do your best to keep the Nightmare hands off the field, Kalin is the bigger threat here. 4. You and Yusei tag duel against Roman Goodwin and Devack Difficulty: 3/5 Not much to concern yourself with here either, I just keep a Spell/Trap remover handy to take care of the fields in the event of an Earthbound Immortal. _______________________________________________________________________________ Yusei Fudo's (Satellite) Story Card: 3x Junk Warrior S.S: Any Random Meta (I used Infernities, just because) 1. You and Yusei tag duel against Officer Trudge and a Security Officer Difficulty: 3/5 Again, not much to worry about, Card Advantage, blah, blah, blah. 2. You and Yusei tag duel against two Satellite Adults. Difficulty: 2/5 Very easy, you don't need advice for this one. 3. You and Yusei tag duel against Rally Dawson and a Child from Satellite Difficulty: 2/5 I actually laughed when I saw this one. Just watch out for Rally's annoying cards like Turbo Booster, he can actually ruin your field prescence rather easily. 4. You and Yusei tag duel against Jack Atlas and Officer Trudge Difficulty: 3/5 These two just didn't work well together. Try to keep a Vortex or other mass effect card handy for some of Jack's tougher monsters. (Red Dragon Archfiend, Strong Wind Dragon, etc.) and you'll be fine. _______________________________________________________________________________ Jack Atlas's Story Card: Red Dragon Archfiend x3 S.S.: Red Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon 1. You and Jack tag duel against Carly Carmine and Mina Simington Difficulty: 1/5 It's barely a fight, don't let up, it'll be over in minutes. 2. You and Jack tag duel against Rally Dawson and Carly Carmine Difficulty: 3/5 Irritating amounts of stall, but once it runs out, (like it always does), it'll end pretty quickly. Just be patient. 3. You and Jack tag duel against Carly Carmine (Dark Signer) and Misty Tredwell (Dark Signer) Difficulty: 2/5 Having had edited Jack's deck, this wasn't much of a challenge at all, you should have no problem with this. 4. You and Jack tag duel against Yusei Fudo and Crow Hogan Difficulty: 4/5 You finally get a proper challenge! Crow swarms like crazy, and synchros just as much, using his powerful early game to stall for Jaden, who sets up his graveyard for a powerful mid-game, so this may be a pain... Luckily, if you're running the Red Eyes Darkness bit, you can throw out some powerful monsters early too, and/or setup for a complete lockdown. Use your powerhouses to knock out Crow's early game, and finish them off before Yusei can do anything relevant. _______________________________________________________________________________ Akiza Izinski's Story Card: Black Rose Dragon x3 S.S.: Plants 1. You and Akiza tag duel against Misty Tredwell (Dark Signer) and Carly Carmine (Dark Signer) Difficulty: 2/5 Akiza can command the field relatively easily but you need to make sure the backfield doesn't get too out of control. This isn't much of an issue though. 2. You duel against Akiza Izinski. Difficulty: 4/5 Have a lot of monster removal handy, or copy her strategy with your more efficient deck. Be careful with your bi play cards, as she can swarm insanely fast with huge monsters. 3. You and Akiza tag duel against two Security Officers Difficulty: 4/5 I actually had some trouble with this one, but I think it was due to my first two attempts dealing me out some rather bad cards, so I can't comment much here, as when I finally got a good starter hand, I mopped the floor. So in summation... best of luck! 4. You and Akiza tag duel against Misty Tredwell (Dark Signer) and Carly Carmine (Dark Signer) Difficutly: 3/5 See #1. xD _______________________________________________________________________________ Akiza Izinski's (Duel Academia) Story Card: Gigaplant x3 S.S.: Plants 1. You and Akiza tag duel against Female Student and Mina Simington Difficulty: 3/5 Mediocre Duel here, not much to worry about, keep up on the usual. 2. You and Akiza tag duel against Female Student and Officer Trudge Difficulty: 4/5 I had some slight troubles with this, just be careful with Trudge. He likes to drop a lot of strategy disrupters, seemed like it for me anyway. 3. You and Akiza tag duel against Female Student and Carly Carmine Difficulty: 2/5 Very easy, minimal threat. Miracle Stone can be a hinderance, but it's not too hard to get rid of either it or the Fortune Ladies. 4. You and Akiza tag duel against Female Student and Yusei Fudo (Satellite) Difficulty: 4/5 I'll admit, I had some really bad hands here. My suggestion is to watch Yusei's graveyard, and take him out before he gets a chance to set it up too much, or you'll be in for some trouble when he swarms with synchros. _______________________________________________________________________________ Crow Hogan's Story Card: Blackwing - Silverwind the Ascendant x3 S.S.: Blackwings 1. You and Crow tag duel against Female Student and a Satellite Adult Difficulty: 1/5 I had no issue with this at all. Actually, by the time it was my turn, Crow had already swarmed them and stomped them into the ground. I had very little to do myself. 2. You and Crow tag duel against Officer Trudge and Sector Security Officer Difficulty: 2/5 Same as #1. It was no effort at all. 3. You and Crow tag duel against Carly Carmine and female duelist Difficulty: 2/5 See #2 4. You and Crow tag duel against Yusei Fudo and Leo Difficulty: 2/5 See #3 _______________________________________________________________________________ Luna's Story Card: Ancient Fairy Dragon x3 S.S.: Light / Dark 1. You and Luna tag duel against Leo and Yusei Fudo Difficulty: 5/5 With them both being able to swarm mid game, and keep field advantage, (along with Luna being able to... well, do nothing) this was pretty frustrating for me. I actually ended up paying the 10,000 Dp for the right to edit Luna's deck early, (I suggest you do the same) because I could not get Simochi Burn to work with her supposed deck at all. I went with a Light/Dark combo deck, which you can see in the Partner Edit / Decks I used section. They are not by any means good, but they were fun to play, and they got me through the storyline just fine. 2. You and Luna tag duel against two female students Difficulty: 1/5 I had no trouble with this after editing Luna's deck, if you did the same then you shouldn't have much trouble here either. 3. You and Luna tag duel against two Satellite duelists Difficulty: 2/5 Same as #2. It's much easier now that Luna has cards that actually DO stuff. 4. You and Luna tag duel against Devack and a Child Difficulty: 2/5 Devack is pretty terrible, and children are low on the ladder as well. Not much of a challenge to be found here. Stick to your guns. _______________________________________________________________________________ Leo's Story Card: Power Tool Dragon x3 S.S.: Morphtronics 1. You and Leo tag duel against Akiza Izinski and Luna Difficulty: 2/5 Luna seems to slow Akiza down enough to where she isn't much of a fight so you shouldn't have much trouble here. 2. You and Leo tag duel against Crow Hogan and Satellite duelist Diffculty: 3/5 I'm sure you know by now that Crow's the problem here. Easy access to Power Tool Dragon will help you out a lot here, but you still have to look out for the usual swarming, synchros, and Icarus Attacks. 3. You and Leo tag duel against Misty Tredwell (Dark Signer) and Officer Trudge (Dark Signer) Difficulty: 2/5 Nothing major here, you've just edited Leo's deck, and by now you know what you need to do to make your decks work together. 4. You and Leo tag duel against Jack Atlas and Crow Hogan Difficulty: 3/5 Two crow fights in one story line? You've got to be joking. See #2. _______________________________________________________________________________ Kalin Kesler (Dark Signer) Story Card: Earthbound Immortal Ccapa Apu x3 S.S.: Infernities 1. You and Kalin tag duel against Crow Hogan and Rally Dawson Difficulty: 3/5 First, a little backdrop. Infernities sacrifice card advantage by means of dumping their hands for potentially game changing effects, keep that in mind when dueling. Now, as for your opponent's, Rally can slow Crow down a lot, which is good for you, but he also has some pretty annoying cards to play. Try to keep a Vortex, Torrential, or Mirror Force handy for when Crow swarms, if you can manage to get past his first wave, (and sometimes 2nd) it really cuts down his resources, and leaves you open to attack. 2. You and Kalin tag duel against Jack Atlas and Luna Difficulty: 2/5 The weakling slows down the stronger opponent, just like in your first match, this isn't much of a fight. Wait it out through Luna's stall, and you'll have no issues. 3. You and Kalin tag duel against Yusei Fudo and Akiza Izinski Difficulty: 2/5 Akiza is all about a powerful mid/early game, and Yusei tries to set up his graveyard for a good strong Mid/End game, making these two a fairly powerful team. However, the obvious hole here is to wait until Akiza swarms, take her out with a Vortex/Mirror Force/etc., and then bulldoze through Yusei's weak defense and take them out before Yusei sets up his graveyard and before Akiza can recover. 4. You duel against Kalin Kesler Difficulty: 2/5 I actually put Infernities vs. Infernites in this match and came out on top. Kalin can't seem to pull his deck together on his own, he often misplays his Dark Tuners, resulting in him never gaining access to his Dark Syncro, and he always seems to sit with a dead card or two in his hand, so he doesn't benefit from the effect of the Infernity monsters. Nevertheless, I'd be a good idea to watch out for both of those aforementioned aspects, and just try to take him out quickly. _______________________________________________________________________________ Kalin Kesler's (Enforcers) Story Card: Thought Ruler Archfiend x3 S.S.: Archfiends 1. You and Kalin tag duel against Crow Hogan and a Young Boy Difficulty: 2/5 I had expected to have a lot of trouble with this, but I didn't at all if you happen to start with a Falling Down, save it for use on one of Crow's more annoying monsters, it really hurts him when uses all his resources to synchro or swarm and then you steal his biggest guy, it helps you out. 2. You and Kalin tag duel against two Sector Security Officers Difficulty: 3/5 I'm not really sure if everyone gets the same Security Officers or not, so I don't really want to go on about strategy, what I will say is I won this duel on my first attempt, with mild resistance, so I imagine it being similar for others. 3. You and Kalin tag duel against two Sector Security Officers Difficulty: 3/5 See #2 4. You and Kalin tag duel against Officer Trudge and Security Officer Difficulty: 3/5 Trudge isn't very consistant, so he doesn't make much of an impact, and again, I'm unsure of the Security Officer, so I'm going to focus on your cards, watch your Life Points if you don't have Pandemonium on the field, and make sure you maintain some field prescence. _______________________________________________________________________________ Carly Carmine's Story Card: 3x of each of the Fortune Fairies, YOu'll recieve 2 of each between the first 3 events, and 1 of each after the fourth. S.S.: Spellcasters 1. You and Carly tag duel against Leo and Luna Difficulty: 3/5 Leo can swarm pretty good, which can lead to an early loss if you aren't careful, but Luna also has a tendency to slow him down, I didn't have much trouble as Spellcasters seem to have a lot of Spell/Trap removal to take care of Luna,and some high ATK monsters to fend off Leo. 2. You and Carly tag duel against Officer Trudge and Mina Simington Difficulty: 3/5 Well, not much to comment on here. Mina is just bad, and the same can be said for Trudge. Just stick to the usual, they'll go down. 3. You and Carly tag duel against Yusei Fudo and Rally Dawson Difficulty: 2/5 Best advice I can give here is to finish them off quickly, before Yusei gets a chance to be a threat, because Rally certainly isn't. 4. You and Carly tag duel against Jack Atlas and Mina Simington Difficulty: 4/5 Basically, Mina was trying to hold me off so Jack could set up for a huge play. It actually worked surprisingly well. My advice is to try to chisel through Mina's defense/stall, and keep a game changer handy for when Jack makes his move. _______________________________________________________________________________ Carly Carmine's (Dark Signer) Story Card: Earthbound Immortal Aslla Piscu x3 S.S.: Fortune Ladies 1. You and Carly tag duel against Leo and Crow Hogan Difficulty: 4/5 These two are a pretty good team, both with fairly decent swarming and synchroing capabilities. If you start with a mass effect card or two, you're in good shape. Carly's Future Visions are also very helpful in this duel, you may want to considder using a few yourself. 2. You and Carly tag duel against Luna and Officer Trudge Difficulty: 2/5 Aside from the annoyance of Luna's stall, this isn't much of a fight, consider a Fairy Wind or two to speed up the duel. 3. You and Carly tag duel against Akiza Izinski and Mina Simington Difficulty: 2/5 For me, Mina ended up slowing down Akiza to the point where I didn't have much to worry about, I imagine you'll have a similar result. 4. You and Carly tag duel against Jack Atlas and Yusei Fudo Difficulty: 3/5 Both of these guys have fairly strong mid/end game, so try not to let it get that far. ;-) _______________________________________________________________________________ Misty Tredwell's Story Card: Evil Dragon Ananta x3 S.S.: Reptiles 1. You and Misty Tredwell tag duel against Carly Carmine and Officer Trudge Difficulty: 3/5 Seeing as how they are both pretty fickle, and don't seem to be able to pull themselves together. 2. You and Misty Tredwell tag duel against Leo and Luna Difficulty: 2/5 Your opponent's decks conflict like their personalities, Leo is quick and to the point, while Luna is patient and slow, so they don't really work well together at all. Retiles seem to have a stronger Mid/End Game than anything, so I definitely recommend waiting it out, holding Leo off until you get to that point where you have a good opening. 3. You and Misty Tredwell tag duel against Jack Atlas and a Kid Difficulty: 3/5 Unless you're doing this storyline first for some reason, you know Jack's game, and you know how to deal with him. The kid is not a threat at all. 4. You duel Misty Tredwell Difficulty: 2/5 Feel free to use any deck you're comfortable with for this one. Either way, it shouldn't be a problem for you. _______________________________________________________________________________ Misty Tredwell's (Dark Signer) Story Card: Earthbound Immortal Ccarayhua x3 S.S.: Reptiles 1. You and Misty duel against Officer Trudge and a Security Officer Difficulty: 3/5 Not too much to worry about, just stick to the usual, and don't let yourself get backed into a corner. 2. You and Misty duel against Jack Atlas and Mina Simington Difficulty: 4/5 I said it once, and I'll say it again, these two are a shockingly good combo. Try to break through whatever stall/defense Mina has, while keeping a Vortex or other mass effect card handy in case Jack pulls out one of his huge monsters, but you should be able to finish them off before it gets to that point. 3. You and Misty tag duel against Kalin Kesler and female duelist Difficulty: 4/5 I had some issues here. Mainly because of Misty making a lot of terrible terrible decision, other than that though, I didn't have much trouble so I suppose all I can say to you is: Hope Misty isn't completely stupid, and try to dump Reptiles early, (She kept throwing out Evil Dragon Ananta on turn 1 or 2. 4. You and Misty duel against Akiza Izinski and Leo Difficulty: 5/5 That's right, hey at least it's Leo instead of Crow, right? Right?? Anyway, this is a pain in the butt. You have to fight your way through anywhere between 2-4 swarms of tons of monsters, some rather powerful very early in the game. If you manage to survive that insane onslaught, you're in good shape. See how they don't have any more cards because the overextended on those last few turns? Get 'em! _______________________________________________________________________________ Officer Trudge's Story Card: Goyo Guardian x3 S.S.: Warriors 1. You and Officer Trudge tag duel against Misty Tredwell and a Satellide Adult Difficulty: 2/5 This was actually pretty easy, just do what you do best. 2. You and Officer Trudge tag duel against two Satellite Adults Difficulty: 3/5 Oi. Not much to say here either. I blinked and missed the duel. 3. You and Officer Trudge tag duel against Rally and another Kid. Difficulty: 2/5 Remember how easy the last two were? This one's easier. 4. You and Officer Trudge tag duel against Yusei Fudo and Crow. Difficulty: 4/5 Good pair here, Crow has a strong early game, and Yusei sets up his graveyard for a decent end game. So Crow basically covers Yusei's weak points, and Yusei steps up for Crow when he's vulnerable. Best thing to do is take out Crow's cards early, and finish them off before Yusei preps his graveyard. _______________________________________________________________________________ Officer Trudge (Dark Signer)'s Story Card: Earthbound Immortal Chacu Challhua x3 S.S.: Insects/Deck Out 1. You and Trudge duel Luna and Devack Difficulty: 3/5 I ran the Insect build, and took out the two Solidarity in favor of two Fairy Wind, to get rid of all of Luna's annoying stall, and it worked out fairly well after that. 2. You and Trudge duel Akiza and Dark Signer Misty Difficulty: 4/5 I ran the insect build again, this time removing the two Solidarity for two Curse of Anubis, since Trudge runs plants anyway, it seemed pretty fitting. You also may want to take out the two Mother Spiders for the same reason, and by extension, the two Level Eaters, though they help Trudge with his Dark Synchros, (which are suprisingly useful). I had a tough time with this, I barely pulled through on my second attempt, and I want to mention that I had fully intended to use the Infernity build had I needed to make a third attempt. 3. You and Trudge duel Jack and Dark Signer Carly Difficulty: 3/5 *sigh* I gotta say, me and Dark Signer Trudge just don't mix well. I've actually included two different Deck Edits for this version of Trudge, simply because of how horrible he is. I used my edit listed below in this, thinking it'd be an open/shut case, but I didn't factor in the whole "CPU AI" thing, and it was only a lucky Destiny Draw -> Monster Reborn -> RDA that saved the day a few seconds before our death. If you're having trouble here, I recommend switching to a more offensive Insect build, i9nstead of the deck out strategy, and using the Insect build with it. 4. You and Trudge duel Yusei and Dark Signer Kalin Difficulty: 2/5 I used the Deck Out deck with Trudge's edit and it went beautifully for me, if you have any trouble, switch out strategies, and go with a more offensive Truddge deck paired with either Infernities or Insects _______________________________________________________________________________ Mina Simington's Story Card: Queen of Fate - Eternia x3 S.S.: Fairies 1. You and Mina duel against two Satellite Adults Difficulty: 3/5 Mina will slow you down these first two duels. The trick I used is a good old fashioned OTK strategy, slightly altering the fairy deck. If you do this, what you need to get is Athena + Ultimate Offering + Honest, then you win. ^^ 2. You and Mina duel Leo and another Child Difficulty: 3/5 See #1 pretty much the same deal, Mina slowed me down a bit, but I didn't have too much trouble. 3. You and Mina duel Misty Tredwell and a Child Difficulty: 3/5 After you edit Mina's deck and get the ball rolling, this duel isn't that hard. It gave me some trouble due to a few bad plays, but I don't think that should be much of a problem for you, Just watch out what you set, the idiot AI doesn't get the concept of 'proper timing.' 4. You and Mina tag duel against Jack and Leo Difficulty: 3/5 Good pair here, Leo has a strong end game, and Jack seems to have the better mid/end game. If Leo gets a Power Tool Dragon, take it out early so you don't have to worry about blowing through three equip cards first. Also, it's a good idea to keep a game changer handy for Jack. _______________________________________________________________________________ Mina Simington's ("Angry") Story Card: Dark Strike Figher x3 S.S.: Burn 1. You duel against Leo and another child Difficulty: 2/5 I didn't have much trouble here actually, Mina's deck isn't exactly fluid, but with your help they actually go down rather quickly. 2. You duel against Misty and an Adult Difficulty: 2/5 Again, not many issues here, they simply can't seem to break through your stall to get to your Life Points, so just quietly chip away at theirs. 3. You and Mina duel against Officer Trudge and a Security Officer Difficulty: 3/5 Trudge uses tons of level fours and up, so this isn't much of a fight. 4. You duel against Carly and Jack. Difficulty: 3/5 Carly can actually be a problem here, as can Jack's Masked Dragons, as they go right under Gravity Bind and Messenger of Peace, if this becomes too much of a problem, consider adding in a few Shield Wings, or other invincible monsters. _______________________________________________________________________________ Rally Dawson's Story Card: Turbo Cannon x3 S.S.: Reflect (So fun to play) 1. You and Rally Dawson tag duel against two Adults Difficulty: 2/5 I had little trouble with this, the reflect is insanely fun to play, and surpisingly effective. 2. You and Rally Dawson tag duel against Crow and a satellite Adult Difficulty: 4/5 I had a little more trouble with this one, mainly due to the prescence of Crow. You should be ok if you wait for him to throw out Synchros then either disable them or remove them from play with Big Bang Shot, your opponent will rarely attack while equipped with Big Bang Shot, for fear of their Life Points, it's actually rather amusing. 3. You and Rally Dawson tag duel against Officer Trudge and a Security Officer Difficulty: 4/5 The swarm really starts to hurt you. It's a bit hard to keep up with, keep a few mass effect cards handy. I hate warriors. 4. You and Rally Dawson tag duel against Yusei Fudo and Leo Difficulty: 2/5 I actually got a really epic starting hand. Plus, Leo likes to swarm like crazy rather early and start swinging, which worked out great for me, he actually ended up chipping away most of their Life Points within the first few turns, also the lack of attacking from your end slows down Yusei. You shouldn't have much trouble. _______________________________________________________________________________ Devack's Story Card: Earthbound Immortal Cusillu x3 S.S.: About that, you don't actually need one. All of Devack's duels are him dueling solo. It's actually pretty annoying, because his deck is horrible. It's literally nothing but Level 5 and up monsters, so you HAVE to pay the 10,000 DP to edit his deck early. My edit is below, and Devack actually defeated each opponent with no problem, you may not be so lucky however, in which case, I suggest swapping some cards around until you're comfortable. Yea, the comment for all of these duels is as follows: "Close your eyes and pray." 1. Devack duels against Leo 2. Devack duels against Mina 3. Devack duels against Officer Trudge 4. Devack duels against Crow Hogan _______________________________________________________________________________ Roman Goodwin's Story Card: Earthbound Immortal Uru x3 S.S.: Whatever you're most comfortable with. All Solo Duels FTW! 1. You solo duel against Luna Difficulty: 2/5 Main deck some Fairy Winds, and all the Spell/Trap removal you can, because she has a lot of annoying stall and Bad Reaction can really mess you up, I suggest Dust Tornadoes for this because when she plays something to heal you, you can chain the Tornado, and gain some LP back. That hurts her a lot. 2. You solo duel against Akiza Difficulty: 4/5 Watch for the swarming, it can get kind of overbearing at times, but you know how she plays, and what she likes to do, so this shouldn't be too much of a problem for you. 3. You solo duel against Jack Atlas Difficulty: 3/5 I'll confess, I was running Gladiator Beasts through this whole story, so this wasn't really a struggle for me, on the rare occassion Jack did get a good monster out, it got Murmillo'd the next turn. 4. You solo duel against Yusei Fudo Difficulty: 3/5 Take him out early, or prepare to be slightly inconvencied by his onslaught of irrevelant Synchros. xD _______________________________________________________________________________ King Jyaku Card: None S.S.: Red-Eyes 1. You and King Jyaku Duel Luna and Carly Carmine Difficulty: 2/5 As you can probably guess, this isn't much of a problem. Just play your cards, or not. You probably don't have too pay much attention. 2. You and King Jyaku duel Misty Tredwell and Leo Difficulty: 3/5 This one is slightly tougher because you haven't been able to edit Jyaku's deck yet, and these two make a mildly decent team, but it's still nothing to fret. Make sure Leo doesn't get an insanely pumped Power Tool Dragon. If he does Synchro it, take it out quickly. 3. You and King Jyaku duel Crow and Akiza Difficulty: 3/5 They can both swarm rather effectively, but so can you, so there isn't too much to worry about. Just make sure that your swarms come out on top after the dust settles. 4. You and King Jyaku duel Jack Atlas and Yusei Fudo Difficulty: 2/5 They make a pretty good team, both with moderate to powerful end games, but luckily you can swarm like crazy early on, so just take them out before they get a chance to setup any big moves, which should be fairly easy. _______________________________________________________________________________ ~ Section 7.1 - My Partner Deck Edits ~ Pretty self explanatory, you earn the right to edit your Partner's deck after his/her second heart event has been completed, (you also HAVE to partner up with the character to be able to edit his/her deck). Or you can pay Larry a rather hefty sum of 10,000 DP to be able to edit a character's deck early, no matter how you do it, here are the edits I made to each characters deck. Oh, I also won't be listing a deck for King Jyaku as you might notice, although he was included in the walkthrough section for the 5C's character. There is a reason for this. You can't edit the 5C's decks. All their cards are favorited. _______________________________________________________________________________ Yusei Fudo (Signer) Note: I actually did not edit Yusei's deck, mainly due to the fact that it is all over the place, and I didn't want to bother trying to make it make sense. Also, as I did his storyline first, and never partnered with him for a day, I wasn't aware that I had the option. If anyone has a good deck edit for the Signer version of Yusei, I will look over it, and possibly add it to the guide if you email it to me in a proper format (see below). _______________________________________________________________________________ Yusei Fudo (Satellite) Err...

~Section 7.2 - Character Likes/Dislikes (Incomplete)

This section is regarding the items that you can buy from the item machine,
and how character's react to them. Some items may have a positive or negative
effect on a character's heart meter, some may only effect their mood. I've
listed all the items I used during my playtime basically, as they are not
exceedingly important or required by the game by any means, I did not take
the time to write down every item, or spend a billion DP testing each item on
each individual character. However, if you have any additional item information
I'd be more than happy to have you email me, so I can try to get more into this
section. Basically, what is here is what I used/offered during my play time
for each storyline, so some sections are more bountiful at times than others.
It all depends on how much I felt the need to use items to get hearts, which
was probably less than half the time. But here's what I got:

~ Section 8.0 - Decks I Used~

Ok, Just to be clear on how I'm going about this, these are just the decks I 
used during the storyline, and these are the ones referenced in the S.S. 
section in the above Character Storylines. You'll notice I don't have any cards
marked for Destiny Draw, there is a reason for this, I feel everyone ends up
in different situations, and you know what you need for your Destiny Draw, for 
me I always keep Monster Reborn, Lightning Vortex, and Mirror Force marked.
If you have no clue what to mark, I suggest you do the same for your decks.
I also do not have any side decks listed, this is because the only time these
are useful is if you select Match through free duel, and even then, none of
the characters really put up enough of a fight for me to bother. Plus, this
guide is centered around the storyline, not the Free Duel feature.
These decks are all based on the default banlist, and at some point in the game
(not exactly sure when) you are granted the ability to use one forbidden card
in your deck, so I also included the "Suggested Forbidden Card" for each deck
below the recipes, (No Forbidden Cards will be included in the deck forthright)
Also, if I don't have a deck in here that you'd like a recipe for, email me!
One more thing I just remembered I wanted to mention, these are my end of 
game recipes, at the time of me writing this, I had 100% card collection, so
obviously you probably won't have all of these available to you (unless you
used a save game from GameFAQs or cheated otherwise). My advice to anyone who
is looking to get these decks without any of the previous options is to read 
my Strategies for Getting DP section, and taking your partner into the store
and buying tons of their respective packs, (which is where you can get most 
of these), or using the password machine to get some of the harder to find
cards.
