Barrel Dragon: Reincarnation
If you happen to reincarnate Barrel Dragon, you will obtain three tough creatures or nice magics (for example, Sagna Of Thunder, Kazejin, Suijin, KaiserDragon, Harpies Pet Dragon, Skull Knight, Ryu-Ran, Coldwave, Solomans Lawbook, and Tremendous Fire).

Black Luster Ritual
You can obtain the Black Luster Ritual via the graveyard slots and not have to line up three Curse Of Dragons. Just wait until Yugi summons the ritual to the field, destroy it, and get it in the slots.

Blue Eyes or a Dark Magician Girl
You will need either a Dark Magician or a Red Eyes as a leader and have finished both the Red and White Rose chapters to access the edit map for the custom duel. If you have a Magician Girl, your leader has to be the Dark Magician; Red Eyes for Blue Eyes. Then go to the "Edit Map" option at the custom duel selection. Then, build the terrain below, where "N" means normal and "L" means labyrinth.

     N N L N L N N
     N N L L L N N
     N N N N N N N
     N N N N N N N 
     N N N N N N N
     N N N N N N N

Now battle at that terrain. When you begin, press Start. When it is your opponent's turn, he will give up. When you reach the Graveyard Slot part, get three Dark Magicians or three Red Eyes to get the Magician Girl or the Blue Eyes. You can also use this terrain to obtain a promotion for your deck leader.

Improved odds in Graveyard Slots
Copy Cat, Mimicat, and Monster Reborn will allow you to control the content of your opponent's Graveyard and help narrow down it down for the Graveyard Slots (revived cards go to the reviver's Graveyard when they are destroyed). Paralyzing Potion is another effective way to get monsters out of the way and not send them to the Graveyard, and improve your odds in the Graveyard Slots.

Note: This trick needs a monster with the Hidden Find ability. This will only work with magic cards. It is suggested you attempt this after you have finished both sides. First, get a monster ranked high enough to where it will gain the Hidden Find ability. Then, play against Shadi and move your deck leader to the precise center square. A screen will appear, stating that you have located the hidden treasure, Souleater. Finish the duel, or if you are in a hurry, surrender. Go to "Custom Duel". Next, put Souleater in your deck, and three of any magic card. Now start a custom battle, and go through the deck until you come across Souleater. Place it in face-up defense. This will enable its special skill. Next, play any high level monster onto the field and have it attack your opponent's defense position. Make sure to wipe them off the field. Make sure you do not attack any offensive monsters or the deck leader until the opponent has played the three magic cards from his deck and gotten them into his graveyard. Once the three magic cards are in his graveyard, pursue the deck leader and wipe out its LP to win the duel. When you now go into the Graveyard Slots, there will just be the three magic cards in it. This is also useful in receiving more immortal monsters and even some unique rares.

First build a deck with rare cards that do not appear in the slots like Exodia pieces, Barrel Dragons, etc. Also, a few magic and trap cards do not appear in the slots. Next, put in as many of the card that you wish to try to get three in a row in the deck, like Swordstalker, Piercing Light, Red Eyes Black Dragon, etc. Then, go to custom duel and duel yourself. All that should be in the slots are the three non-rare cards. Attempt to use Swordstalker as the leader, Brigidier, because he has three chances and have three of him in the slots. You will get roughly four to five trap cards and four Swordstalkers in the slots.

Obtain Souleater. Then Mass combo cards until you draw it, then use its ability to clear the graveyard of all but the card you want in the slots. Just be sure to put three of the magic card in your deck. Be patient with it, but in the long run, it is worth the time.

This trick can only be used when there is just one monster in the Graveyard possible of getting, as when you use the "Edit Map" trick. When your using the slot machine, you can see the arrows on the side. As you can see, they are normally blinking. When they go away, the card is on the other side of the slot. You can use this to your gain.

Just place the needed card in your deck and destroy it in a custom battle. It could be helpful to place more than one card in the deck for higher chances of getting the card you want.

New card picture
Any time that you gain a card through lining up three of a kind in the Graveyard Slots, you will receive a new picture for that card in your chest. A few examples include: Blue Eyes White Dragon, Red Eyes Black Dragon, Summoned Skull, Gemini Elf, and Flame Swordsman.

Ritual monsters
When your using the Graveyard Slot machine after battle, obtain three cards that are needed to get a ritual monster. If you do, you will get that ritual monster as well as the three cards. For example, win against Bones at Exeter and in the Graveyard Slots, obtain any Insect, Machine, and Zombie monster. Note: The cards will only appear in the slots if they are used in battle. Now duel against opponents that have ritual cards.

Baby Dragon: Reincarnation
If you Reincarnate Baby Dragon, you can obtain Exodia pieces. This may take a few attempts.

If you happen to reincarnate a Baby Dragon, you may receive the immortal monster, Mucus Yolk. This card will lower your opponent's life points by 50 each time you move it. It may take a few attempt's, but in time you will get one.

Change Of Heart: Reincarnation
If you happen to reincarnate Change Of Heart you can receive Three Suijins. This may take a few tries.

Curse Of Dragon
If you do not have Zombie Warrrior, fuse Monster Egg with Fiend's Hand. Then, fuse Zombie Warrior with Meteor Dragon to have Curse Of Dragon.

Cyber Commander: Reincarnation
To get Exodia's Left Leg, reincarnate Cyber Commander. This may take a few turns.

Dark Magician: Hidden ability
If you can raise the Dark Magician ranking to Major, you will be able to do the same extra slot try as the Robot Knight.

Dark Magician: Reincarnation
If you happen to reincarnate Dark Magician, you can receive good cards like Kasier Dragon, Toon Summoned Skull, Solomons' Lawbook, and others.

Manga-Ryu Ran: Reincarnation
If you happen to reincarnate Pegasus's Manga-Ryu Ran, you will get some kind of ritual stop card, Tremendous Fire, and the rare card Skull Knight.

Millennium
To summon Millennium, you need to have Curse Of The Millennium Shield and two cards with 2100 DEF.

Millennium Shield: Strong attack
You need to have the Curse of the Millennium Ritual first and three monsters over 2000 DEF. When you do summon the Millennium Shield, make sure you have a Shield And Sword Magic card so that you can switch out the shield's defense to its attack, giving it a 4000 ATK.

Mirror Wall
Mirror Wall (DC: 80) is a powerful card. Just use it against a Blue Eyes. If any card (in this case Blue Eyes) attacks any of your cards, its attack is cut in half, making a Blue Eyes ATK 1500. If the card attacks once again, it will be halved again, (Blue Eyes ATK 750). Blue Eyes can now be killed by the weakest monsters in the game.

Mystical Elf: Hidden ability
Promote Mystical Elf to RADM, and all three lines will be offered in the Graveyard Slots. This is useful when attempting to get those tricky rares.

Exodia: Summoning
To have an instant victory with Exodia, you have to Exodia The Forbidden One as your deck leader. Any deck leader status will do tho. Through your turns, you must place the four pieces of Exodia in the proper spaces (Left Leg, Right Leg, Left Arm, Head, and Right Arm). The deck leader can be placed in between the arms or legs. All four pieces have to be face up. Once all this has been done, the game will give your opponent one final chance to stop you. On your next turn, the summon will engage.

To get all of the pieces, you have to use passwords, reincarnations, and line up slot rares. To obtain the Head and Left Arm, use the passwords. To receive the Left and Right Legs, reincarnate. The best cards to reincarnate are those of a deck that cost of 20. To get the last piece, the Right Arm, you have to line up three cards in the slots. The best cards to line up are Cocoons of Evolution, which appear when you duel Weevil.

Fake Trap: Reincarnation
Reincarnate a Fake Trap to receive Exodia Pieces.

Flame Swordsman: Reincarnation
Reincarnate a Flame Swordsman to receive a Labyrinth Wall. You can also get a Skull Knight.

Magic Drain: Reincarnation
If you reincarnate Magic Drain (DC: 60) you can receive good cards like these:

Sanga Of The Thunder (common)
Suijin (very common)
Kazejin (common)
Dust Tornado
Skull Knight! (rare)
Graverobber! (very rare)
Fissure (sucks)
Dragon Capture Jar
Winspread Ruin
Stainstorm
Eternal Drought
Dian Keto the Cure Master (extremely rare)
Warrior Elimination
Roaring Ocean Snake

Paralyzing Potion: Reincarnation
Reincarnate Paralyzing Potion to receive Mesmeric Control and Metalmorph.

Perfectly Ultimate Great Moth: Obtain quickly
After you have summoned an Perfectly Ultimate Great Moth card using Cocoon Of Evolution and baby insect cards, now use a Monster Reborn or Mimicat card to resurrect Pupa Of Moth to the field. Pupa Of Moth then transforms into another Perfectly Ultimate Great Moth. You can also resurrect Pupa Of Moth from the graveyard again.

Pumpking: Effect on all your monsters
This trick will work well if you have a deck that is really good in Wasteland, and if you have Pumpking or a fusion for Pumpking, Call Of The Haunted, or Blue-Eyed Silver Zombie. First, get Pumpking on the field and flip it face up on defense position to enable its nature affect. Then, summon three more monsters on the field. Then wait until you have Call Of The Haunted or Blue-Eyed Silver Zombie. When you have the card, use it. Blue-eyed Silver Zombie/Call Of The Haunted's effect turns all of your monsters into zombies. Try this on Rex Raptor. Note: Prior to doing this, it could be useful to power-up the monsters that you want to turn into zombies.

Steel Scorpion: Deck leader
Level up a Steel Scorpion to Second Lieutenant and put it as your deck leader. Then, level it up to Major and you will now have two abilities as well as the extra top slot ability.

Swordstalker: Stronger attack
An easier way to give Swordstalker a strength of 3800 power attack points or more is to sacrifice every monster in your deck. Due to Swordstalker's special effect, it will become stronger than those of the CPU.

Attempt to gain a card called Darkness Falls. It has a magic card that lets you flip all cards face down. Next, go to custom battle and create your CPU opponent play it or use it. Get it several times in the card slots, then get a Swordstalker (or two or three) in your deck. Put the Swordstalker on the field and get rid of all of your monster cards (not Swordstalker) and magic/trap cards (not Darkness Falls). Flip your Swordstalker to make its attack become 6,000. Use Darkness Falls to flip it face down then flip it up again so that its attack is now at 10,000. Flip it over once again face down with Darkness Falls and flip it face up to make it have an outstanding attack power of 14,000, which is enough to kill three Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragons together (13,500) Lastly, use your last Darkness Falls to flip it down again. Flip it up to make the monster have 18,000 attack points. Also, use Copycat and The Magician Of Faith to raise it even more by recovering more Darkness Falls to make the ultimate monster. In the end of all the recovery of cards and power increases, Swordstalker will now have a total of 36,000 ATK and 32,000 DEF. Note: No monster can exceed an Attack or Defense value above 9999.

If you mainly have a monster deck with three Swordstalkers, this trick will be useful. Start by repeatedly trying to combine all of your monsters but not your Swordstalkers. Then, attempt to send out your Swordstalkers. It will have a power of a 6300/5900 or more. Try making many fusions with one card and ruin the card. For example, Zombie + Warrior = Skull knight + Hard armor = Armored Zombie. You will have four cards gone instead of three. Do not forget to destroy your final card with your own leader.

Swordstalker: Extra Graveyard Slot Chance
Like the Dark Magician and Slot Machine monster cards, Swordstalker can learn the Hidden Ability to match up three cards on the top row as well as the middle row when it gets to the rank of Major. However, unlike the Dark Magician and Slot Machine, Swordstalker gains the ability to match up three cards in the bottom row as well when it get's to the rank of Brigadier.

Suijin: Reincarnation
If you happen to reincarnate Suijin, you will get good cards. However, the real payoff is that you can receive Sanga and Kazejin. You can get them both at the same time.

Red-Eyes Black Dragon
To obtain the Red-Eyes Black Dragon, have Joey summon it. Beat the Red-Eyes Black Dragon and get it in the Graveyard Slots.

Red-Eyes Black Metal Dragon
Just have Joey summon it by combining his Metalmorph and his Red-Eyes Black Dragon. Beat it, but you need to obtain the Red-Eyes Black Dragon and the Metalmorph in the slots.

Robotic Knight: Extra Graveyard slot chance
Robotic Knight has a secret ability that lets you have an extra shot at matching three cards in Graveyard Slots. It will let you now attempt to match three cards on the top row. You get this after you raise your rank to the first star with the yellow stripe.

Royal Decree: Reincarnation
If you happen to reincarnate a Royal Decree, it will give you three Suijins.

Steel Scorpion: Reincarnation
Reincarnate a Steel Scorpion to obtain a Right Arm Of the Forbidden One (Exodia piece). This may take several tries because of the frequency that Fake Trap appears.

Zoa and Metalzoa
Face J. Shadi in a match and demolish his Zoa card. Do not use Monster Reborn on Zoa. Get Zoa in the Graveyard Slots then face Joey. Beat him and make sure you destroy a Metalmorph. Win Metalmorph in the slots and combine it with Zoa to receive Metalzoa (3000/2400).

You can also get Zoa and Metalzoa from Bandit Keith, but it may take a few tries as he does not play it often.

Gain doubles of your cards
This trick needs only one memory card in the memory card slot. Go into the custom duel and set your deck up so that your best cards are in there. Both you and the CPU's decks will have the identical cards in them. When you win, the slot machine will be there and you can obtain your best cards constantly. This is useful with Red Eyes, Blue Eyes and other cards that your have only one copy of.

Use this trick to copy cards and promote weak monsters. A second memory is not needed. Go to vs. duel and Duel Master K. Make the card you want to copy your leader, play the Duel Master in the default crush field. Note: Make sure to have some monsters under 1500 ATK. Do not use any field cards. Instead, Duel Master K will at the most send out one or two monsters. Destroy these and beat him in battle. Because he has the identical deck as you, he will have the same deck leader. In the slots, the deck leader will be there. Get the monster you want in the slots. The battle is easy. The longer the battle the better, as this helps promote weak monsters.

Get any card
This trick needs two memory cards and two controllers. Now start a file on the first memory card then save as soon as you can. Then, on the second memory card, start a file and save. Next, go back to the first memory card and choose "Trade" with both memory cards in. You can now trade the weakest cards in your deck for the strongest in the other deck. After this, you can do it again by starting a new file or battling duelists on the second memory card.

Secret card
In most of the maps, there is a secret card somewhere on the map. To get these cards you must move your Deck Leader over a precise spot on the map. You may have to finish the game as both sides for these cards to appear. For example, in all the battles at Stone Henge, move your Deck Leader to the middle of the map, in between all the labyrinth terrain. There should be a different card there against each opponent.

To be able to locate and obtain the secret cards on the field during a duel, your deck leader must be ranked as a Major or higher. You need to have a deck cost that is lower than 1000.

Hidden card locations
To locate the cards, your deck leader has to have the ability to find cards and you need to have finished both sides of the story.

The Field layout is like this:

A
B
C
D
E
F
G
*1 2 3 4 5 6 7

These are the locations and cards you can get:

Mai-E7: Dust Tornado
Yugi-D1: Carat Idol
Bakura-A7: Shape Snatch
Joey-E7: Rigras Leever
Mako-E6: Time Eater
Tea-E5: Servant of Catabolism
Grandpa-C4: Dharma Cannon
Necromancer-A1: Eternal Rest
Weevil-D7: Eradicating Aerosol
Rex Raptor-A7: Cold Wave
Panik (Darkness Ruler)-B6: -Exile of the Wicked
Isthar-D4: Jowls of Demise
Tristan-D5: Novox Prayer
Pegasus-A4: Electromagnetic Bagworm
Bandit Keith-C4: Strain Storm
Shadi-D4: Souleater
Labyrinth Ruler-A7: Catapult Turtle
King-B4: Warrior Elimination
Final Bosses-D4: ???
Kaiba-D4: Moisture Creature

Several of the monsters are Immortal Type and very powerful in terms of their effects. Most of the magic cards are those that destroy every monster of a specific type (usually the type primarily used by the opponent you get the card against, for example, Cold Wave, obtained against Rex Raptor, kills all dinosaur type monsters).

Getting good or rare cards
Use this trick to multiply your good cards, obtain rare cards, and practice the Graveyards Slots. After clearing the game, the "Edit" option appears in a custom duel. You can modify the terrain to make all of the summoning spaces around your opponent labyrinth. Once the duel starts, pass your turn and your opponent will be forced to sacrifice. You will then be able to play the slots with only your deck leader in with nine Fake Traps.

Promote cards
Use this trick to promote cards under 1,500 attack. Once you have finished the White Rose and Red Rose sides, save the game and go to "Custom Duel" at the main menu. Only have one memory card that your using. Create a B or C deck. Have a lot of strong cards in your deck higher than 1,500 except the card you wish to have promoted. Have three of that card in your deck. Go to map edit mode and create a map like the one below (C= Crush, L = Labyrinth, N = Normal).

     L L L L L L L
     L L C C L L N
     L L C L L L N
     L L N N L L N
     N N N N N N N
     N N N N N N N
     N N N N N N N

Once you have drawn the card you want, move it in front of your opponent's deck leader and attack until you do win. Keep redoing and you will in time get it promoted. Also, move other cards around on the field face up (not in crush) and you could get them promoted as well. Each time they are promoted, it will take longer to raise their rank.

Getting magic or trap cards
Go to the custom duel and assemble any deck you like which only contain magic or trap cards. Go to map edit mode and create a map like the one below. (N = Normal, L = Labyrinth)

     N L N N N L N
     N L N N N L N
     N N L N L N N
     N N L N L N N
     N N L N L N N
     N N N N N N N

When you do play, your opponent will not move. He will set out magic and will not use or move them. You can take him out whenever you like by surrounding him.

Easy custom duel
Use the below layout in custom duel (N = Normal, L = Labyrinth ). Notice you will not be able to move your Deck Leader.

      N N N N N N N
      N N N N N N N
      N N N N N N N
      N N N L L L N
      N N N L N L N
      N N L N L L N

Your opponent will not be able to attack your Life points directly, unless you both have Shadow Ghoul. You will still be able to summon monsters to the field. If you have a card that you cannot afford to lose, like Mirror Force, or a card that you want, put it to the right of the field for safe keeping.

Move two squares at a time
When a monster receives a Terrain Field boost, flip it face up and it is allowed to move two squares at a time.

Raise your monster's rank easily
Based on which monster you have, you should go against certain opponents. If the monster you want to raise in rank has an attack power of 2000 to 2500, play against Tristan. If it is lower then that, then play against Tea. If it is higher, battle Joey. First, have as many of that monster in your deck, then kill every monster with that card. Do not add power-ups or attack the opponent's LP with magic cards. You can then have more time killing the other monsters. Just remember to kill the opponent's deck leader yourself with the card you want to raise in rank. This will normally give you a big boost for raising your rank.

To get a powerful monster you have to have a map with Toon terrain and a terrain that favors your monsters like Mountain if you have the Birdface deck. You also need a strong monster with lots of power-up cards, and a Greenkappa. Summon your Greenkappa and move him onto the Toon terrain. Then, summon a powerful monster on its terrain, and equip your equip cards to your strong monster. After that, flip up your Greenkappa on the Toon terrain. Because of its effect, it will copy the attack of the strongest monster on the field. Greenkappa will copy the attack on the Toon terrain, which should be around 4500. Then, move your Greenkappa off the Toon terrain and his attack will be raised by 500, making it around 5000. If you now move your Greenkappa onto Grassland, his attack will increase by another 500 points, making it 5500. You can keep on strengthening it with power ups like Konai With Chain, but only equip cards after you have capped your other monster's attack. Now you have an unstoppable monster.

Level up your deck leaders
Note: This trick needs the Map Edit option and a controller with a auto-fire or slow feature. First, build a Labyrinth around your opponent, except for one space. Then put the monsters that you want to level up on the field. Make sure you use Ookazi or Tremendous Fire, etc. Set the controller on auto-fire or slow for Start. When the battle is done, you will have more Deck Leaders.

First, get a monster as your deck leader. Finish both sides of the game and have a PlayStation memory card with Yu-Gi-Oh! Forbidden Memories data in slot two and a PlayStation2 memory card with Yu-Gi-Oh! Duelists Of Roses data in the slot one. You should be going again Exodia. Obtain three of the same monster as your deck leader to the field. Then attack all cards with the selected monster that you want to level up. Attack the opponent's deck leader after all cards on the other side are in the graveyard. Then to help you against Exodia, put in Heavy Storm, Dark Hole, White Hole, Royal Decree, and lots of Graverobbers, Monster Reborns, and Mimicats.

Obtain the Fairy King Truesdale Deck. Then, input the code for Fairy King Truesdale YF07QVEZ. Then put the Fairy King Truesdale card in your deck. It should have a rank of Second Lt.

Change deck sort
Hold Select when your at the deck sort screen and you can change how it sorts by pressing L2 or R2.

Unlimited flip effects
Play a Magician Of Faith or Mask Of Darkness in the face down position, but do not move it or alter its position. Then, use the magic card Darkness Approaches. This will flip all your cards face down. Now, flip the Mask Of Darkness or Magician Of Faith card up and revive Darkness Approaches. On your next turn, you can use it again to turn the Mask Of Darkness or Magician Of Faith face down. Flip the Magician Of Faith or Mask Of Darkness card up again and revive Darkness Approaches, and you can use it on your next turn. Then, add a Mystical Elf into the equation; Mystical Elf, Darkness Approaches, Mask Of Darkness or Magician Of Faith, in this order. The Mystical Elf's flip effect is an 800 point power bonus to all of your light monsters, and if you use her before Darkness Approaches, you can flip her again on your next turn. With three Mystical Elfs, your light monsters obtain 2400 attack and defense each round. Note: It is suggested that you use the Magician Of Faith card, as it will receive the power bonus that the Mask Of Darkness will not.

Lower opponent's monsters attack quickly
First move Mirror Wall either to the far bottom left square or far bottom right square. Put your leader beside it. Start securing your leader and Mirror Wall with monsters. Now start advancing weak trap or magic cards. Mirror Wall will activate and your opponent's monsters will be too weak to fight. You will still get the monsters in the Graveyard, since your opponent attacks all facedown cards.

Obtain a Mirror Wall and put it somewhere. Then, put a magic card that you do not need somewhere close to it so that it will attack. Once it attempts to attack, Mirror Wall will activate, cut its Attack in half, and just move on the magic card. You can also use a weak monster in defense mode.

Easier wins
Simply use these passwords to get Crush Card (SRA7L5YR), Mimicat (69YDQM85), Magician Of Faith (GME1S3UM), and Royal Decree (8TETQHE1). Reincarnate Crush Card to receive Just Desserts. Then keep combining the cards that are not listed in this tip until you get the ones you need. Do not use Just Desserts until your opponent has five cards on the field and you have Royal Decree on the field. Then use Just Desserts and do 1500 points of direct damage. The total damage will be 4500, which is enough. This trick is effective against Grandpa if you want an Exodia deck.

Once you have finished the White Rose and Red Rose sides, save the game and go to "Custom Duel" at the main menu. Then only have one memory card in use. Go to map edit mode. Then build a map with all your opponents summoning squares filled with labyrinth. Start a duel. End your turn at the beginning. After your opponent ends his turn, you will win. If your deck leader has a high rank and an attack lower than 2600, he will be in the slots. Keep repeating and in time you will get three in a row if your timing is right to win special cards like Blue-Eyes White Dragon, Toon Summoned Skull, Cannon Soldier, etc.

Just have three Slate Warriors in your deck and the Crush card along with a few cards that also can use the Crush card. The Gust Fan is also a useful optional power-up for Slate Warrior. Place the Slate Warriors out, but wait to flip them face up until you have all three out. Once all three are out, flip them face up to give each one a 1500 power bonus, making them 3400 ATK and roughly 1900 DEF. Along with the Gust Fan you have 3700, not to mention the Field Power bonus. If they move onto the crush terrain that your weaker monster made with the Crush card, it makes a grand total of 4200 ATK. Even if your opponent manages to beat one, the enemy will be destroyed by the crush terrain.

Obtain a Thunder monster and a Dragon monster, then combine them to get Twin-Headed Thunder Dragon (2800/2100). Then, use Bright Castle and get it on water, sea, or anything else wet and attack.

Just have three Pumpkings in your deck, along with a lot of strong zombies and crush cards. The zombies can go through the Crush zones without being harmed, no matter how strong they are. The Pumpking will give the zombies 100 attack and defense points for every Pumpking in play at the beginning of your turn. It helps to have other cards to make more Pumpkings.

First, put as many as you can Yellow Luster Shields and Mimicats into your playing deck. Next, put five of your strongest monsters and lots of power ups. Lastly, put one Shield And Sword. In the duel, attempt to get your five strongest cards out on the field and power them up as much as you can. Also, put all your Yellow Luster Shields on the field. Once you have all five monsters on the field, enable the Luster Shields, then using the Mimicats, restore the Luster Shields and activate those also. Once you have all the Yellow Luster Shields gone, use your Shield And Sword card to switch the defense and attack points.

Reincarnate card
If you happen to surrender five times, you will be able to reincarnate a card in your chest which will allow you to build your deck. Also you can reincarnate after five duels, win or lose. For example, after two wins and three losses you still get to do it. It does not have to be five times in a row. Simply press L3 to reincarnate.

Beating Fab Lyrr
Just use Royal Decree, Mirror Wall, and some good monsters cards in your deck.

First you need to make a deck with Royal Decree, Mirror Wall, Mimecat, Magician Of Faith, Monster Reborn, Meteor Black Dragon, Slate Warrior, Infinite Dimension, Conversion Factory, Robot Knight, Cyber Commander, Barrel Dragon, Limit Remover, Green Kappa, any terrain cards, and any other cards you like. Now change the terrain in the middle of the field. Then, use Slate Warrior to make the part with the labyrinth close to the opponent's deck leader to crush terrain. If you see a fusion, it is likely a Black Meteor Dragon (3500/3000). If you see a monster with a power boost of 2000 and, for example force, then duel warily; he uses Rioku. Put Mirror Wall in a corner so it is harder for him to reach. Also attempt this power combo: Barrel Dragon face up equipped with Conversion Factory with Cyber Commander in defense mode and Robot Knight in defense mode. Then use Limit Remover. Your Barrel Dragon should be strong enough to take on a Black Meteor Dragon. Now use Infinite Dimension for protection. If you get these cards on field or hand: Magician Of Faith, Green Kappa, Monster Reborn, Meteor Black Dragon, Mimecat, Royal Decree, then the duel is over. First revive his Red Eyes Black Dragon then fuse it with Meteor Dragon to obtain your own Black Meteor Dragon. Then, activate Magician Of Faith's ability a use Rioku on your Meteor Dragon. Next, do the same with Mimecat and your Black Meteor Dragon should have 6500/6000. Then use Royal Decree to cancel any of his traps. lastly, play Green Kappa face up in attack mode and it should have the same attack as your Black Meteor Dragon (7000/6500).

Simply make sure you have a Green Kappa monster in your deck. Fab Lyrr will likely start off by playing Riroku and a Skull Knight or something like that with over 2000 ATK. Once that monster is on the field, go into the crush territory with your leader, play the Green Kappa face down until you are in striking range of his leader, and attack. The Green Kappa's effect will raise his attack to over 4000 and destroy his leader in just one shot.

Beating Jasper Dice Tudor
First, beat the Labyrinth Ruler until you obtain a Shadow Ghoul or two, Then, go to Tudor and use the Shadow Ghoul. Now enter the labyrinth areas to turn it into a Wall Shadow, then use Reborn The Monster or Mimicat to go and dig out Shadow Ghoul again and make another Wall Shadow. Do this as many times as you like three times is good. Then, use the Shield And Sword card to switch the Shadow Ghouls attack and defense and give it 3,000 attack points. Also, use the Ancient Tree Of Enlightenment or a Royal Decree to keep traps from getting the Wall Shadows. The Ancient Tree Of Enlightenment is good, because you can turn it off by switching to attack mode after you move in case you have trap cards like Shadow Of Eyes, Mirror Wall, or Goblin Fan out. The following are the card numbers that are suggested: 043, 123, 152, 655, 685, 687, (699, 824), 705, 736, 754, 814, 829.

Just set Goblin Fan down and move it to one of your corners. When he uses Just Deserts, he will kill himself. You can also use Magician Of Faith and Copycat after he uses Just Deserts and play it against him.

Beating Labyrinth Ruler
For this you will need a field card or a monster card that can change the field type, like Curse Of Drangon. You will need this card to destroy the crush card field to obtain to his deck leader. Get roughly two of these cards for both sides of the field. However, sometimes he will summon Labyrinth Wall to you. In this situtation, pack your deck with magic cards that attack your opponent's life points. Note: To win could be hard because he has a card which gives him 1000 life points.

Reincarnate more than three cards from one
When you reach the point of reincarnating cards, copy your game to a second memory card. Continue on with the copied game and reincarnate a card. Then save your game and exit. Place both the copied save game and the original saved game in the PlayStation2 and trade the reincarnated cards from the copy to the original. You will now have three new cards, and still can reincarnate a card.

Repeatedly reincarnate
To preform this trick, you have to activate the reincarnate option after you have played with the CPU five or more times. Now save your game before going to reincarnate. Reincarnate any card you like, and if you did not like it, go to the main menu without saving your previous reincarnation. Then, go to "Continue" to try it again. Redo this as many times as you like until you get the cards you want.

Before you reincarnating, save the game and copy it to a second memory card. Then, go to "Build Deck", reincarnate, then save the game. Then go to "Trade", then select the new cards and send them to the second memory card. Then press Start on controller two. No cards are needed to trade for the new cards. Turn off the PlayStation2, then turn it back on and copy the game from the second memory card to the first memory card. You will now have new cards, plus the reincarnate ability Redo this trick to reincarnate all cards possible and never lose one.

Reincarnating high deck cost cards
When you reincarnate cards of 45 points or higher, Sujins become the Fake Trap. When you are reincarnating cards of 55 points or more, Sujins and Wide Spread Ruin are the Fake Traps.

Copying cards
First, finish both sides of the game and have the card you want copied as the deck leader. Then, create a terrain like this:

     NNLNLNN
     NNNNNNN
     NNNNNNN
     NNNNNNN
     NNNNNNN
     NNNNNNN
     NNNNNNN

Select "End" and your opponent will surrender. Then, go to the slots and line up your deck leader and you will obtain it. Note: This will only work with certain cards.

Countering Mirror Force
When your dueling against people with Mirror Force like Yugi, put your trap cards in defense mode so they cannot be destroyed.

Immortal monsters
Not including the normal monsters that have under 1500 ATK and can survive in the Crush territory, there are Immortal Type monsters that can both enter the area, regardless of Attack Power, and gain a field power bonus of +500 points. When these monsters are destroyed in battle, they turn the surrounding spaces into Crush territory, and they leavie their mark. Get a Great Mammoth Of Goldfine faced up spell bound.

Beating Pegasus
Have Ancient Tree Of Enlightenment in face up defense position. His effect allows no Trap cards to be used when in this position. Now use Aqua Dragon powered up with Horn Of Light. Move him into the Toonland terrain and keep advancing to Pegasus' deck leader. When your opponent attacks, Aqua Dragon's effect will be activated. The square occupied by Aqua Dragon will become sea. This will boost Aqua Dragon's attack by 1000 points. His attack will be 3250, which should be enough to beat anything. You can also use the water as a path for Suijin or other water monsters. Pegasus has no Rose card to give you.

Beating Weevil
Take the Mirror Wall card, put it in your deck, and use it. Just make sure you have a good deck like a Machine. For example, Flame "Robotic Knight" and when he attacks, the ATK power will be cut in half. Make sure you do not attack them or Mirror Wall will not work. Earthshaker is also a good card to attack with when get close to his leader.

Crush territory
When you happen to play in the crush territory, you can only play monsters with an attack power of 1500 so just be careful.

Use this trick to attack monsters who are on crush squares. You need an Aqua Dragon, with equips if you need it to beat the monster. Then, go next to the crush square and attack the monster. When you do this, Aqua Dragon's effect will change the square into a water square, giving you a boost and taking a crush square away. It will also allow you to move two spaces.

This trick will work well if you have a deck that is good in crush terrain. First, you will need crush card or a card that has an effect that changes terrain into crush (Two Dark Plants, Slate Warrior, Crush Card and Magician Of Faith suggested). Then, try to make a wall of crush infected terrain so that your opponent's strong monsters cannot progress on your deck leader. Then, move your deck leader to a spot in the crush area that is surrounded on all sides so that you can get your monsters to the enemy deck leader quicker. For example, (where "T" is any type of terrain and "C" is crush terrain):

     T T T T T T T
     T C T T T C T 
     C C C C C C C 
     T C C C C C T 
     T T T C T T T
     T T T T T T T 
     T T T T T T T 

Note: This method will work good if you cover about half of the field with crush. Since only monsters with less than 1500 ATK can enter the terrain, your opponents strong monsters wont be able to attack and destroy your weak monsters hiding in the crush terrain.

Zombie type monsters are allowed to pass through the crush territory. They do not need to have a certain attack.

Monsters like the Aqua Dragon and the Roaring Ocean Snake can engage in battle in crush spaces due to their effects. When these cards engage in battle, they transform the space into ocean terrain which will let them attack monsters hiding in crush spaces. This will ensure major damage because the target card must be 1500 AP or lower to hide in a crush space.
