Yu-Gi-Oh Master Duel: How to craft cards, earn crafting points
KonamiYu-Gi-Oh Master Duel has over 10,000 cards for players to collect, enough to strike fear into the heart of the most experienced duelists. Finding that elusive spell you need in Master Duel’s many packs could take hours, so you’ll be glad to hear that the game has a card crafting system. Here’s how it works.
Seemingly out of nowhere, Yu-Gi-Oh Master Duel dropped onto consoles and PC on January 18. Even though we’re still waiting for the iOS and Android versions, players are already well on their way to becoming the King of Games.
With thousands of cards and plenty of secret packs to open, it’s easy to get swamped with items that don’t fit your finely tuned deck. Likewise, it can make finding the one card to unlock your deck’s full potential feel like a Needle Worm in a haystack.
Luckily, Master Duel comes complete with a crafting system that lets players make the exact cards they want. It seems a little confusing at first, but with this easy guide, you’ll be able to build the perfect deck in no time.

KonamiHow to earn Crafting Points in Yu-Gi-Oh Master Duel
Before you start producing cards quicker than Konami, you’re going to need to stock up on Crafting Points. There are four different kinds of Crafting Points in Master Duel, each corresponding to the different rarities of cards on offer. They are:
- Normal (N)
- Rare (R)
- Super Rare (R)
- Ultra Rare (UR)
It requires 30 Crafting Points to make that rarity of card, so 30 Rare Crafting Points to make a Rare monster, for example. Luckily, they’re super easy to come by once you know how.
All you have to do is dismantle an unwanted card of that rarity to earn Crafting Points. You can do this in the deck editor by simply bringing up the Card Menu (L2 or LT on consoles) and hitting “dismantle.”
Each dismantled item grants 10 CP, so you’ll have to discard three for every card you craft. It may seem like a lot for one card, but once you get into the loop of opening packs, dismantling, and crafting, it’s a pretty forgiving system.
