Dice Pool

The 15 dice that the character uses in the game. Certain players (HONDA!) sometimes have more than 15 dice in their pool, many of which are never actually used in battle. The dice listed here are the dice I've actually seen them use.

Yami Yugi (Dark Yugi)[edit]

Heh... Give it your best shot!

King Of Games he may be, but his dice pool is sadly lacking. By the time you get to play Yami, your dice should easily beat down his rather under-powered Lv3s. The ONLY Lv4 to worry about is Dark Magician, which he somehow manages to get out near the end of every duel, no matter how many rules he has to break, in order to summon an Lv4 monster, with only one Lv4 dice in his pool.

While Dark Magician isn't a pushover, Yami's real ace in the hole is the Millennium Shield, which he'll summon as soon as possible, and place in front of his life points. The best way to deal with it is to rush him, and either beat down the shield before he can amass defence crests, or build dungeon path around the shield, to attack his life points from the sides.

Dice Pool: Mystical Elf, Kuriboh, Mammoth Graveyard, Beaver Warrior, Winged Dragon #1, Koumori Dragon, Celtic Guardian, Feral Imp, Curse of Dragon, Millennium Shield, Dark Magician Girl, Thunder Ball, Strike Ninja, Warp Vortex, Dark Magician

Yugi Muto (Yugi Mutou)[edit]

I can do this by myself! Here I come!

As you might expect, Yugi is a total pushover, existing solely for the purpose of losing to you, on a consistent basis. Take in whatever dice you want, and prepare for a few laughs, as Yugi spawns his Medical Aid kit right next to one of your monsters, and instructs his monsters to attack targets they can't possibly beat. You may as well build directly to his life points, then sit back as Yugi does his best to kill himself. In fact, it's so easy, you might want to challenge him in Free Duel a few times, for that Knight Of Twin Swords he has residing in his otherwise under-powered Dice Pool..

Dice Pool: Mystical Elf, Kuriboh, Beaver Warrior, Petit Dragon, Knight Of Twin, Swords Sangan, Thunder Ball, Warp Vortex, Fiend's Mirror, Strike Ninja, Feral Imp Witch's Aprentice, Shadow Specter, Rabid Horseman, Medical Aid Kit.

Joey Wheeler (Katsuya Jounouchi)[edit]

Gosh dang it, you came back again? You can't beat me this time!

Rush him with low-level, non-flying monsters, and try to kill him before he gets enough MOV crests to do anything with Red-Eyes. He's going to plough through any defence you manage to construct, so don't even think about trying to stop him... That said, Jounouchi tends to put everything into his Lv4 monsters, so if you ARE capable of taking one of them down, he usually has to wait a few dozen turns, before he gets another one out, meaning that if you CAN take down Red-Eyes, you'll probably coast to an easy victory, since he doesn't play with any tricks up his sleeve.

Getting Red-Eyes becomes a must later on, so once you unlock Jounouchi, it might be worth playing him a few times in Free Duel, in order to get one of your very own

Dice Pool: Baby Dragon, Red Eyes, Thousand Dragon, Time Machine, Time Wizard, Flame Swordsman, B. Skull Dragon, Knight Of Twin Swords, Skelengel, Battle Warrior, Meteor B Dragon, Trap Bandit, Mystic Horseman, Petit Dragon, Penguin Knight

Tristan Taylor (Hiroto Honda)[edit]

All right, let's get this show rolling!

While calling him 'formiddable' would be a stretch too far, Honda's DDM incarnation isn't as much of a push-over as you might expect. He's packing a dozen Lv2 Dice, and he's pretty good at blocking his heart points, which means rushing him isn't going to be pretty.

Honda's 2 favorite dice are the Seamp Battleguard and Battle Steer, so expect to see them come out first in every game, and if your rushing, make sure you've got something that can take them down, since you WILL run into them, no matter how fast you move.

Interestingly, Honda has an INSANE amount of dice, although he only ever summons 15 - the rest of them only get rolled for crests, or given away as prizes. It might be worth battling him a few times if you're after a Medical Aid Kit, or the elusive Resurrection Scroll.

Dice Pool: Swamp Battleguard, Koumori Dragon, Battle Steer. Resurrection Scroll, Blast Lizard, Feral Imp, Ryu-Kishin, Kuriboh, Mystic Lamp, Hitotsu-Me Giant, Zombie Warrior, Hane-Hane, Petit Dragon, Knight Of Twin Swords, Shadow Specter, Mushroom Man, Flame Swordsman, Medical Aid Kit

Tea Gardner (Anzu)[edit]

If my dreams are to come true, I can't afford to lose here!

Anzu's army of choice consists entirely of Lv1 monsters, which means lots of monsters on the board, very quickly. The good news (from your point of view) is that all these monsters absolutely suck, and shouldn't present you with any problems. Another upside of the low-level monsters is that Anzu hardly ever has any crests, and has a tough time rolling any, due to her low level dice. To her credit, Anzu's one effective tactic is that with 10 monsters on the field at once, her Skelengel and Petit Dragons work well, in powering up themselves, and her other monsters, since she can often manage to get 4 monsters of the same type out on the field incredibly quickly. The strategy here is simple. Sit back, relax, and call out your strongest monsters. Keep rolling for crests, until Anzu is done summoning her army, and then stroll along her dungeon path, slaughtering them as you go.

Dice Pool: Dancing Elf x2, Petit Dragon x2, Skelengel x2, Penguin Soldier, Kuriboh, Beaver Warrior, Parrot Dragon, Jellyfish, Kanan The Swordmistress, Mystical Elf, Baby Dragon, Mystic Lamp, Red Archery Girl, Witch's Apprentice

Full Character List[edit]

Since the above is never going to get completed, and a few people were wondering if their favorite character can be unlocked, here's a complete list.

Note: This list uses the character names form the ENGLISH version, many of which were made up by Konami of America, and don't reflect the names of the characters in the Manga, or the 4Kids anime dub.
