TCG: GENESYS Point Adjustments September 24th 2025
Overview
Konami have announced the first Point Adjustments for the new Yu-Gi-Oh! GENESYS format, which you can find out more about about here, going into effect with the release of Doom of Dimensions's OTS Tournament Store release - which is today!
UPDATE: Our Deck Builder now supports Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG Genesys Format. You can sort and filter our card database by Genesys Point Costs and start building your Decks!
Konami also shared a new Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG Blog Post highlighting some of the ideology surrounding this update, including 2 key factors:
- Regarding Point Adjustments Timings:
We're thinking the ideal update timing is somewhere in the 4-6 weeks range, but that will depend on data availability. In order to see which cards are getting used (and not used), we need Deck Lists. We’ll have the Deck Lists from the big events that we’re running, like the Genesys Invitationals we’re running at upcoming YCS events. But we’re really hoping to see Deck Lists from in-store Genesys tournaments, Genesys public events run at Regionals, etc....
We’re also flexible on the update schedule. If you’d prefer a longer gap between changes, or updates only when new sets come out, we could do that too, if enough people want it.
- Regarding newly released cards from Doom of Dimensions:
Speaking of new sets, you’ll notice Loading... and Loading... , from Doom of Dimensions, have immediate point costs. Existing “Dominus” cards already have point costs. Existing “K9” cards already have point costs. So we think Duelists would expect strong new cards from these lines to come with at least some nominal point cost upon release. This was also common feedback from the folks who had an early look at Genesys before it was announced.
But at the same time, we’re thinking it would be a little weird to pre-assign point costs to brand-new themes, like “DoomZ” or “Radiant Typhoon” (both from Doom of Dimensions) right away. Let’s see where they end up, first. Do you agree? Let us know!
