Tag Duel Tournament is an event in Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links. It lasts from January 24, 2018 to February 4, 2018.
Event Details
Similar to earlier events, the player must collect Friendship Letters to enter duels in the Tournament. These are obtained by dueling normal enemies in Duel World. In addition, dueling during the event rewards players with Tag Coins—1 coin for every 100 points earned in a Duel, multiplied by each mode's multiplier—which can be traded for a wide variety of cards (picked at random via the event's card lottery).
Normal
In the Normal mode, players join with Yami Yugi, each Duel requires 7 Friendship Tickets, the Tag Coin multiplier is x1, and they must clear three rounds to win.
