Pros:
+ Surprisingly F2P friendly
+ Not hard to get a meta deck you want (crafting, secret packs)
+ Smooth and fluid gameplay
+ Definitve modern full format gameplay
+ Good animations and effects (still not as good as something like Legends of Runeterra, but given the ammount of cards here thats hard to do)
+ Really good player count, fast queues

Cons:
- Free gems do fall off over time (but can be mitigated somewhat via ranked wins and challenges)
- Varied skill gap in ranked in the low-mid ranks
- Casuals get stomped for trying to play fun decks (no alternate format/ruleset yet)

Neutral
~ Customisation is paid but by no means neccessary.
~ Ban list/card selection isnt the exact same as TCG which can be a good thing but makes finding resources for the game a bit harder as you cannot rely on many existing websites for the tcg.

tl;dr, if you wanna play official, modern yugioh on a fast and fluid platform with lots of players, fast queues. This is really the only (and best) place to do it. Crafting and secret packs mean you can get 1 or 2 complete decks for free with in-game methods and continue the ranked grind to keep collecting staple cards. When you inventiably pay (if you want many decks) there are sales and bundles so its not awful. Updates obviously to come, new formats, tournaments, solo stuff, etc.
