How to Level Up the Duel Pass

Play Ranked or Event Duels

In order to level up the Duel Pass, players will need to earn Duel Pass Points. These can only be obtained through either Ranked Duels or Event Duels.

Win a Duel 120 Points
Surrender 0 Points

Earn Duel Pass Points to Level Up

Levels in the Duel Pass are called Grades, and the amount of points needed for each Grade Range changes as you get higher in the Duel Pass.

For example, in order to level up from 31 to 32, players will need 150 Duel Pass Points. Compare this to leveling up from 2 to 3, which only needs 80 Duel Pass Points.

2-5 80
6-10 90
11-20 100
21-30 125

86-90 325
91-95 350
96-100 400

Should You Buy the Duel Pass?

Buy It if You Plan to Learn the Master Duel Meta

Blue Eyes White Dragon

For long-time players of Yu-Gi-Oh! or TCG veterans looking to grind out the new meta introduced by Master Duel, the Duel Pass is a must-buy!

Given how generous the game is when rewarding Gems, returning players can take advantage of the Duel Pass to get more craft points and build their dream deck.

Casual Players can Hold Off on Buying

For casual players, you can hold-off on purchasing until you've learned how to build and optimize a deck, and gotten through all the tutorial content for new players.

You can still earn Duel Pass Points even without the Duel Pass. So keep playing and decide later on whether the rewards are worth it for your skill level!

What is the Duel Pass?

Master Duel's Equivalent to a Batle Pass

Duel Pass.png

If you're familiar with recent live service games, then the Duel Pass can be compared to a Battle Pass, rewarding players for simply playing Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel on a consistent basis.

The Normal Duel Pass is automatically given to players, while the Gold Duel Pass can be bought at the Store for 800 Gems - Master Duel's form of in-game currency.

Free-to-Play Friendly

Normal Rewards

While priced using in-game currency, the Duel Pass is very friendly to Free-to-Play players. Gems are easily earned by playing, and the rewards of the Normal Duel Pass are fine, even if it only goes up to Level 50.

At Level 50, players will get 300 Gems and enough Craft Points to generate at least 1 Ultra Rare Card, 1 Super Rare Card, and 1 Rare Card.

Can be Re-Bought Using Earned Gems

For players looking to get into a serious Master Duel grind, purchasing the Gold Duel Pass is well worth it as they will earn back the 800 Gems they spent by Level 100.

If players are in it for the long haul and looking to test their mettle in Ranked Duels or Events, then the Gold Duel Pass will be a very good investment.
