Yu-Gi-Oh Master Duel's Anti-Spell Festival Starts on the 16th of November - Here’s How Long It Lasts and the Rewards You Can Earn

We have a new Festival coming to Master Duel, and this one is the classic kind, with Medals and no ranking. The Anti-Spell Festival will start on November 16th/17th and lasts until the 28th/29th, depending on your time zone. The event forbids the use of Spell Cards of any kind (Pendulum Monsters are still allowed).

This will be the last Festival of the year, as December will have another Duelist Cup (will bring more attention to it closer to that event). This article will focus on the rewards of the event, with dedicated articles for the Ban List and Loaner Decks to come later.

Event Rewards

As mentioned, the Anti-Spell Festival returns to the Medals system, with players earning Medals both when losing and winning (but not for surrendering). Players will be able to get up to 1900 Gems and 20 Legacy Tickets from the Festival, not counting any earned from missions.

The cosmetic reward, situated at 5500 Medals, is a a field part, which are a pretty rare cosmetic. In this case, we're talking about replacing your Graveyard and Banished zones with ones inspired by Loop of Destruction. It even shoots fire from its segments! Getting the maximum of 22000 Medals will award you with a Festival-specific Title.

The rewards are once again basically split in half, with all the Gems being frontloaded and stopping at 11000 Medals. Everything else is Legacy Tickets and the aforementioned Title. If past trends hold up, and they should, you'll get 500 Medals for each win.
