![[Duel Links] All Duelist Skills Empty](https://2img.net/i/empty.gif)
One of the differences between duels in the card game and the duels in Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links are the skills assigned to each character. Each character has specific abilities that will help them in battle.
Each skill is different and some can really turn the tides in battle. However, there are two different types of skills – some are gained by leveling up characters and others gained as drops after duels.
Characters in Duel Links have three skills that they learn, exclusively to them, through level up. The skills that are found in drops can be character exclusive or general skills that can work for any character and any deck.
Here’s a list of all of the skills for each character in Duel Links. (note: this is still being updated)
