Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel’s latest event has begun, and this time Konami is challenging duelists to use Synchro Summoning in order to earn rewards. Synchro Summoning allows you to use Tuner monsters to pull powerful Synchro Monsters out of your special deck, and mastering this mechanic could help you win big over the next few weeks.

The more you win, the more you earn, and with lots of exclusive prizes on offer this time around, it is well worth getting stuck in. Here is everything you need to know about the Master Duel Synchro Festival limited event.
The Synchro Festival is the latest in a series of limited-time events to be run in Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel. Like all the previous festivals, such as the Xyz and N and R Rarity Festivals, the event challenges you to build a deck with a certain restriction and win as many duels as you can.
This time around, the gimmick is Synchro Summoning. Synchro Summoning is a form of special summon that requires a combination of Tuner and non-Tuner monsters to help summon a Synchro Monster from your extra deck.
For the Synchro Festival, the only monsters you are allowed in your extra deck are Synchro monsters. While technically you don’t even have to use the extra deck to win the game, you’ll generally be up against players running focused Synchro decks. And may have a hard time if you don’t lean into the mechanic.
Other than banning any non-Synchro Fusion, Pendulum, Xyz, or Link monsters, the festival is using the regular Master Duel ban list. Master Duel’s forbidden and limited list does differ slightly from the normal TCG forbidden list, so make sure the cards you’re planning to run are legal before wasting your crafting components.
