Yu-Gi-Oh! Forbidden Memories 15-card monthly randomizer FAQ

Q: What are you trying to do?
A: Beat a randomizer of the Yu-Gi-Oh! Forbidden Memories 15-card mod as quickly as possible. This is a monthly community challenge to aim for the fastest time on a premade seed. A new randomizer seed is generated on the 1st of each month, and speedrunners compete to see who can beat it the fastest.

Q: Where can I play this?
A: Go to the leaderboard page and click on "Download": https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/10Y6eOebE-yBGON6luNt6aBaZe6zd9nCJ/edit#gid=406740321

Q: What is the 15-card mod?
A: You win 15 cards per duel instead of 1. That's it.

Q: What is randomized?
A: The cards you can win from each duelist and the starting deck. You can win any card except Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon, Gate Guardian, Megamorph and Swords of Revealing Light. These are banned from the drop pool because they are too strong and unbalanced. The starting deck is mostly 1000-2000 ATK monsters.

Q: Why isn't Meteor B. Dragon banned?
A: The community is still testing the rules for these challenges. MBD was dominant during the November challenge, so it will likely be banned in future months.

Q: What is the world record?
A: For November, 57:39 by me. For December, no one has completed a good run yet.

Q: Where do the best cards drop?
A: For November, Teana 1 drops Meteor B. Dragon, Metalzoa, and Cosmo Queen at high rates on SA-POW. This is the only place you farm during the run. Mai drops Perfectly Ultimate Great Moth, Crush Card, and Horn of the Unicorn at high rates on BCD.

So the November route is pretty simple -- farm for big hitters on Teana 1, reset if they don't drop quickly, and then breeze through the rest of the game while hoping for no Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon plays on Seto 3 and Nitemare.

Q: What are you playing on?
