Overview

In Duel Links, We have a maximum of 50 turns: 25 of which you can act in. When it hits the 51st turn, the Duel will end in a Draw. This gives us a time frame in which we need to summon the correlated monster that we are trying to farm the mat for, in order to get the maximum amount of summons in 1 Duel. Note: If the Duel ends in a Draw, Win or Lost. All summons are still counted do not worry if the Duel ended in a Draw.

For about half the monsters, Flip Summons, Special Summons and Normal/Tribute Summons all count towards the summon for the mat. However, Synchros, Fusion and Ritual monsters are excluded from this and must be summoned with their proper summoning mechanic. In addition, monsters that have the following text: Must be Special Summoned, needs to be summoned with the requirements that it is asking. (e.g.) has to be summoned by . also follows this rule.

We also have to keep in mind the amount of cards in a Deck. The AI is limited to 20 cards to their deck in LV 10, while we can have a maximum of 30. So we need a way to keep us and the AI from decking out. (e.g) , , , and . Draw power is an optional element that thins your Deck, giving key cards and allowing us to set up the summoning loop much quicker. (e.g.) , , and .

Generally, you want to use mat decks against LV 10 but more specifically against Tea LV 10 as she is the easiest to deal and duel with. LV 10 AI keep their monsters in attack position and Tea only has the maximum ATK on a monster at 1000. So is safe to be set and will not die if you take the route to use as a draw power card. In terms of what skills to use, most decks can use the skill but you do not entirely need the skill, especially those who do not have it or wish to farm for it.

Sauropod Brachion

The following core cards are needed for the Brachion mat farming deck.

How it works is you give the AI and the AI every turn will use Brachions effect to put all monsters face-down then pass. In your following turn you flip up your monsters and use your anti deckout card and repeat until you hit turn 50 or Draw.

Example Deck

works for the following monsters:

Things to note, when you use this deck for the following monsters: , , and . You must need a minimum of 5 balloon counters. will swing over the face-down Hikari and Maiden if you don’t and you will lose additional flip summons. For Gandora and Yubel you can use to avoid their self destruction effect or you must not give Sauropod Brachion to the AI, you yourself will put your own Gandora and Yubel face-down or else Gandora will go to the Graveyard and Yubel will have to tribute a monster or destroy its self.

Be very careful not to deck out, this deck draws insanely fast and you have to keep up with its speed. If you think you are going to deck out USE your Jar of Avarice, no second thoughts on it. Temple of the Kings can alleviate the stress by allowing to use the Jar of Avarice on your turn while you still have 1 card left in the deck. Recycle’s primary goal is to put the Jar of Avarice back to the deck. If there is none, bring back any Continuous Spell. Pot of Benevolance is there incase you need to save your self if you can’t bring stuff back to stop you from decking out.

And with that we have reached the end. The only Monster that never got a deck was but you can simply use the skill: and duel/farm 100 times.
