The Character Decks are designed to give players a guided introduction to each character's signature playstyle. Dueling in this new mode allows Duelists to earn Respect Orbs, a special reward item that is based on their performance rating and can be exchanged at the Trader for cards and various other items. Duelists can trade in Respect Orbs for a Grade Star which increases the Grade of a Character Deck. Increasing the Deck's Grade allows Duelists to replace up to a maximum of five cards based on the Deck's Grade.

Nine characters will receive their own exclusive Character Deck:

  • Yami Yugi
  • Seto Kaiba (DM)
  • Joey Wheeler (DM)
  • Jaden Yuki
  • Zane Truesdale
  • Yusei Fudo
  • Jack Atlas
  • Yuma & Astral
  • Reginald “Shark” Kastle


Each Character Deck can be obtained through a lifetime mission that is automatically completed when you acquire the corresponding character.
