Dr. Vellian Crowler is a playable Legendary Duelist in Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links. This is a video game depiction of Vellian Crowler, a character from the Yu-Gi-Oh! GX anime.
Prior to April 16, 2018, he was exclusive to the special event Dr. Crowler's Tricky Tests, only being able to be dueled or unlocked during the event.
Green Gate Keys are normally required to Duel Dr. Vellian Crowler at the Gate. During the special event, Academy Notebooks are required instead.
Description[]
Dr. Crowler is Duel Academy's #1 professor (or so he claims). But as the instructor in basic duel training, his skills with Ancient Gear monsters are unquestioned. At first, Dr. Crowler was focused on expelling Jaden from Duel Academy, but his views changed over time. What hasn't changed is his erratic behavior that has his students questioning his PhD.

Trivia[]

- Yugi Muto (DM), Mako Tsunami, Rex Raptor, Bandit Keith, Ishizu Ishtar, Odion, Maximillion Pegasus, Arkana, Espa Roba, Scud, Prana, Dr. Vellian Crowler, Syrus Truesdale, and Sartorius Kumar are the characters with the least character-specific dialogue in-game.
- The aforementioned characters, excluding Prana, have the average amount of character-specific dialogue a Legendary Duelist possesses.
- The Paradox Brothers, Arkana, Lumis and Umbra, Aigami, Sera, Prana, Jesse Anderson, Alexis Rhodes, Dr. Vellian Crowler, Bastion Misawa, Tyranno Hassleberry, Sartorius Kumar, Blair Flannigan, Yusei Fudo, Dark Signer Kalin Kessler, Kalin Kessler, and Reginald Kastle are the Legendary Duelists who have dialogue for cards that are non-existent, unreleased, or anime-exclusive. It is uncertain as to why these cards were found in the voice files, or if these said cards will be released in the future.
- Crowler's dialogue for such cards include: "Ancient Gear Inspection", "Crazy Summon Gear", "Desperate Battle", "Unfinished Ancient Gear", and "Unfinished Time Box".
- There are some Legendary Duelists who possess a Skill that allows them to begin a Duel with a specific Continuous Spell activated:
- Maximillion Pegasus - It's a Toon World
