Master Duel Deck Type Explanations

Type Explanation
Aggro Aggro Decks focus on summoing combos that often start with just 1 card, swarming the field with powerful monsters with equally powerful effects. Their goal is to summon their key boss monsters as soon as possible, to bring the Duel to their favor as soon as it hits the field.
Control Control Decks are slower in pace and in speed compared to Aggro Decks. These control the field with powerful negations, removal effects and bottleneck effects that hinder the opponent from properly playing a game of Yu-Gi-Oh.
Burn Burn Decks are focus on dealing as much Effect Damage from various Monsters, Spell Cards and Trap Cards to bring the opponent's Life Points to 0. Depending on their situation, they can win the game on their first turn.
Alt-Win These Decks play around certain strategies that are often considered not part of the top meta. They will often include cards that involve instant win conditions, and setting up the field to fulfill those conditions as soon as possible.
Budget Budget Decks make use of less expensive resources to be viable, meaning there are less UR and SR rarity cards in the Deck. These are meant to be more afforadble for players as they continue to build their Decks card by card.
World Champion These are the Decks used by the winning team of the Yu-Gi-Oh! World Championship for Master Duel. Their Deck Lists will be immortalized to stand as the best Decks of that competitive year.
