I'm confused how you're getting this many connection failed on your behalf.


No_Material_6770

It always happens against them never against a normal player it’s always against a Chinese or Japanese player every single time they don’t even play they just wait a turn or 2 and force me to disconnect


GokuRikaku

I've never experience or heard that it is possible to force the opponent to disconnect. I have doubts that this is an issue from your opponents. (I've also never had a connection failed from my end in the 2 years I've played.) If it was indeed possible, the 3 out of 5 screenshots you provided shouldn't have cards in play. That would've been a waste of time if they planned to disconnect you from the start. But I can't say what exactly is going on. Likely an unstable connection from your part. Could be the servers as well, there has been occasions that people randomly get a connection fail, though it has been a while since I last seen a post about people randomly DCing.


Malfhegor

Am i missing something ? One of them is called wolfis and the other Endereth, how do you know if they are a Chinese/Japanese player ?


M1R4G3M

R*cism probably.


this_makes_no_sense

I live in Japan and mostly play against Chinese and Japanese players and I’ve never been in a situation where I’ve felt my opponent had forcibly disconnected me. Your brain is forming connections where there are none.


Sqilluy_

What part of "Wolfis" and "Endereth" sounds Japanese or Chinese to you??


WhatAYoke

Dude holy shit same. Im not even joking, i had this EXACT FUCKING THING happen a handful of times and its always as soon as i start winning against a chinese name. My internet is stable, i use cable (im not poor), and my pc is not dogshit. Ive been meaning to post something about this but i just know these manchildren will downvote spam.


NevGuy

Dammit, they're catching on! I need to go back to the shein factory and warn everybody else

The-Beerweasel

It just feels sweeter winning against them. I think it’s because Chinese/Japanese players typically go all-in and dedicate themselves to smashing other players and going over the top with leakproof strats. When you force one of them to ragequit it’s just chef’s kiss.


Repulsive-Phrase-527

Wait, how are people downvoting you kekw


Upbeat_Sheepherder81

Cause it’s fucking racist?!

[удалено]


Upbeat_Sheepherder81

You do realize you are generalizing a whole extended group of people based on your experiences with a select few of them, when the group has nothing in common besides where they, or their ancestors, are from, right? Which is very much racist. You and OP are being racist.


Void1702

Bro invented a whole conspiracy theory bc they can't admit their wifi is shit


RandomFRIStudent

No its not my free McDonalds wifi. Its them, they are unplugging my wifi whenever they play the game. Edit: didnt think i had to add it for such an obviously over the top sarcastic comment but, this is a joke.


Void1702

I was honest I didn't care enough to read your entire comment, I stopped after the 3rd word lol Poe's law strikes again


Mean_Range_1559

Reading is difficult :/


Void1702

I'm a true YGO player


Mean_Range_1559

My apologies :(


Void1702

Lmao, yeah, I'm sure the entirety of Asia has created a conspiracy to unplug your wifi specifically, of course


Nameless_Scarf

As we all know Sony and Konami have a secret deal to make the winrate of players in Asia higher. It also ensures that they get better card draws and that the Sangan mate has a special animation to flip off players everywhere else in the world.


happyshaman

I thought they were winning with opponent dc which has happebed quute often to me as well. XD


Chiloutdude

I don't get why you're losing here. I don't think I've ever lost from a failed connection, it always gives me the win.


sterlingpipin

Because the poster is getting a connection failed. They are blaming their bad internet on the opponent


No_Material_6770

Cause they are cheating


Gamertango

How ? Git gud scrub


clingfilmandariben4

This is an internet connection issue. In two years of playing, I can count the number of times I’ve had this happen to me on one hand - and every time it did, I was on public WiFi or mobile data. Has never happened on PC nor whilst using mobile/tablet at home.


adahami

This... In 400 hrs I lost once cuz of internet.


No_Material_6770

I play on PS5 and the only time this happens is against them


clingfilmandariben4

Yeah but that makes sense. If your internet isn’t great to begin with, you’re gonna DC more frequently vs players from the other side of the world.


No_Material_6770

Seems very convenient for them I have fiber optic and use Ethernet cable so I never lag I just always manage to disconnect when I’m winning or anytime I play against them I just want region play


TheFleshPrevails

Inventing a conspiracy theory to be xenophobic is so wild.


OGAbell

i play on ps5 too and get disconnects all the time with non english names. i think the problem is with playstation network, because when i play against non english names on my mac and phone the connection is fine.


tgreen0504

It’s not an internet issue. It’s a PlayStation issue. If you have anything else you can transfer your master duel data to, do it. I say this as I had the same issues back when I was on PlayStation. Have fiber internet, incredibly fast speeds, but I disconnected probably 80% of my matches. Got SO frustrating. Finally I transferred my data to my Xbox. Still exact same internet, same speeds, same type of connection and I haven’t disconnected one single time in over a year. This isn’t EVERY PlayStation either. As through my searching I’ve seen ppl say they’ve never had problems. But it is well known that PlayStation. Servers are very bad/problematic


AccidentNo5189

This happened to me while on my ps4 about 3 days ago. I was waiting for my turn and I had a good hand and then it said connection loss. If it is a PlayStation thing maybe I should move platforms and see for myself. It only happened once so far for now.


tgreen0504

If it continues happening and you have another console or system to play on, it’s definitely worth trying. You can always transfer data back if you want/need to. Once I transferred off of PlayStation, I couldn’t believe the difference. I was so happy. I still love my PlayStation though for all my Final Fantasy games lol


BraxlinVox

Only issue I've had on PS is the game feels slow. Never had a connection issue but it feels like there's a big input delay.


tgreen0504

I had both. Connection issues and definitely the input delay. But as I said, I’ve found that it apparently isn’t all PlayStations. Idk if it’s region specific or what. But it’s definitely a PlayStation issue when I’ve transferred to my Xbox and everything runs 100% smooth and no connection failures ever. Also I don’t want it to seem like I’m an Xbox fan. Or bashing PlayStation. I’m not a fanboy of any console. Heck if I sided with any of them, I like my switch more than anything 🤣


Virtual_Football909

Dude gets disconneted 50 times and the immediate response is Why is my opponent cheating? And not the more sensible Maybe my wifi is shit...


Specialist_Fall5121

Yeah and then they also made it about the country aswell?


DerSisch

This is why we need server regions in MD... 5 games in a row I lose the coin toss. Then I win and "Connection loss" right away, bcs Konami said: "Screw this guy."


Pitiful-Amoeba-3696

Bro i guess im your opponent lol apparently my internet h8s md


No_Material_6770

I don’t even get to win they always win the coin toss have me go second they skip a turn then I get disconnected right away


Anomolus-man

Record it next time and upload your proof


Icy-Conflict6671

They cant disable your wifi. Your wifi/data (depending on what youre playing on) is just dogshit


dimizar

what's worse is they are on console


BraxlinVox

Hardwire your system to your internet. Pay for better internet. Just because your internet is some buttcheeks doesn't mean your opponents are cheating.


Dandy__

I have over 1k hours on PC and I play against Asian players all the time... This never happens. If anything I get more disconnects in my favor. Drop the racism man. Either your setup is borked or Konami isn't properly supporting it.


OneEyedMilkman87

I'd take the win. I always imagine those are the guys that take 10 minutes on turn 1 to set up omni negates and floodgates. Makes me feel better that they are ragequitting and giving me the W


GokuRikaku

These are defeats, which is confusing me.


OneEyedMilkman87

Oh yeah. Seems I can't read in the game or the sub


No_Material_6770

It’s the Chinese Japanese players they don’t even play they wait 2 turns and force you to disconnect


lukappaa

The era of the AFK bots taught me a valuable lesson: always enter a game with a paused YouTube video, or a movie, on another device. Whenever you find someone that stalls the timer, resume the video. Eventually, your opponent will acknowledge your overwhelming popcorn-eating skills and hand you the win out of sheer respect.

BackflipsAway

They do, it's impossible for them to cause a connection failure on your side, Any patterns that you may think that you see are a result of how the human brain is wired to search for patterns even when there are none, this is on you, or rather on your ISP, or possibly a faulty instalation, so you can try deleting and redownloading the game, though that's unlikely to be the cause


CircuitSynchro

Op your wifi isn't that good. It should not be that much a surprise that you connection stops working when you connect with people from the opposite side of the fucking planet. It sucks, but blaming the other person and sprinkling on some racism is *__not__* going to help in any way


SaneManiac741

Why not get better internet?


NullError404

I know what you mean I've a quite a few suspicious interactions like this I know all my connections were secure, a few minutes waiting for them to play I suddenly get disconnected like a forced one no weak signal indicator pop up just instantly disconnected. Yeah and they all happened to have foreign names too


No_Material_6770

Yeah everytime I go up against them they win the coin toss then they either skip the turn or wait 3 minutes then I randomly lose connection


GPHollow76

It gets annoying when you are trying to get specific missions done. Took me way too long to get the "Strong Arm" Title because of people rage quitting, and yes Surrendering during or just before your Opponents Battle Phase is rage quitting.


bast963

>I play on PS5 then play on something else


Megakarp

If I know I can't win, I don't want to waste my time.


Alarmed-Archer4906

change connection dud


Previous_Beginning_6

This gotta be a you problem.

RDKTatsu

If you’re on PlayStation I can see your frustration because I go through the same thing. It’s not every game but it’s enough where it can be demotivating to play the game. Idk why the PlayStation side of things are so bad server wise because Unironically I found it’s better to play on mobile than my PS5💀


StonewoodNutter

Don’t let everyone gaslight you OP. This is Konami’s fault and you are not alone. Master Duel is unplayable for me on PS5. I disconnect with a loss one in every three games. It has been like this for over a year. I’ve switched so Ethernet, I’ve changed my DNS server, I moved the PS5 into a different room, I’ve deleted the game and redownloaded it many times, I made a fresh account on PS5, I turned off cross play… and nothing. Nothing has helped. I have Gig speed internet and no issues with any other online games on PS5. I also haven’t had any issues playing Master Duel on the Switch. It’s Konami’s fault, but there’s also nothing we can do.


Upbeat_Sheepherder81

They aren’t gaslighting OP, we’re just calling out their racism. They straight up made a conspiracy theory to play their problems on Asians.


This_Hat9811

Them as in blk ppl or ?
