Hey Guys Themataurian Here (Mod)
Im Very Much Keen to Organise a LOTD Speedrunning Marathon of Sorts to help grow our community the event will be over a couple of days (3-4 Days to accommodate time zones and availability of people) a dates yet to be confirmed.
Hoping to make it an Yearly Event
Heres the Catagories for the Event

(Note above runs are to use the story decks)
NO Banlist Race or sorts - Mulitple TBc Banlist Race or sorts - Mulitple tbc Battle Pack Draft Race - Any Category can be nominated for this
Maybe Duelist Challenges Run Any%
Guys Let me know if your interested in being a part of this
Getting runners should not be a problem there is few active runners in the community
Could Also raise a few dollars for a charity of something in this event also if people want to do something like that
Also for people wanting to Run please post your name in this thread and what Category you want to potentially do
Hi. I just started speedrunning the game. Haven't posted any times yet because im still fairly new and im not proud of my times. My best is only a 3h 45m for LordLe: OG Any% story deck. Been meaning to do a few more attempts but limited to 1 attept per run from overheating ps4. Depending on the day you want to start it, id be happy to attempt another story run for any of the first 3 series, ideally the YuGi series.
Isko - and I'd be down for any No Banlist and Banlist race, Duelist Challenges and Battle Pack Draft sounds fun
hey there Pervy_Hoodie Good to see a new face in the community. The marathon is a few months away so keep practicing. all good Isko i know you will be keen
one thing to note everyone is if multiple people want to do the same category there will have to be video submissions and i will set up a team (Panel) to go thru and determine who will get that slot i do sense og campaign will be popular and we will have a tough decision for example on that 1.
Hopefully ill have a full set up by then instead of a ps4 stream haha. Ill see if i can beat RNG enough to set some good times. Looking forward to get my times up on the boards
cherNYak/Ant6190/The619man - Down to do Banlist and No Banlist Runs, as well as 5ds or GX any%, whichever needs runners (if any).
I just played through GX Story and the decks arent that bad now and think I'd be able to do Story Decks for GX as well, still have to check out the others though.
Only know that I can't do Zexal,ArcV and Vrains. So I might be able to do DM,GX and 5Ds Story deck runs but I have to go through them a couple more times
thanks for the Response CherNyak ive got you down for the no banlist and banlist races
Guys However Story Deck Any% Runs we will need a video Submissions and a panel will decide who will run those categories

Note: if Runner is not avaliable to Stream on the given day the story Duel run in the schedule we will readjust and place it on a day where they are avaliable
Banlist/No Banlist Championship Rules
- Run Attempt Must Be done Live for fairness to all competitiors
- 1 Run Attempt (Nominated by Runner on Stream)
- Decks for Banlist Must be Submitted to the panel and Accepted before running
- If Runner is only avaliable for some of the marathon days i would absolutely Advise to livestream all the category attempts and Rerun the stream in conjuction to the marathon Schedule so people can see your run attempt
- Please Post Runs also in the Yugioh LOTD Marathon Discord Section
Possible Rule: to make things interesting for Banlist is that you have to use a different deck for each of the campaigns that would test the skill of a runner (This to be agree upon or will be excluded Rule)
6 Different Decks
(Also Note Link Evo and Old Legacy will be separated as games run differently)
Points System Dependant on entries Example 10 Competitors
1st Fastest Time - 10 Points 2nd Fastest Time - 9 Points 3rd Fastest Time - 8 Points 4th Fastest Time - 7 Points .... 10th Fastest Time - 1 Point
Points will be tallied up over the course of the event
So I'm interested in this but I don't run the game but I've been interested in starting to at since point, so figured I'd ask about this as it seems fun.
