Have you checked out Master Duel? It's the official digital way to play Yu-Gi-Oh! and although it's not great for retro format support, it does have the entire card pool available so you could theoretically play retro formats against people online.

I gotta check it out and see if my pc can run it thanks for reminding me. So far the best program I've found is edopro by project ignis as it lets you playtest decks against a so-so ai. It's online play supports goat format which is cool and you can easily import banlists to play whatever format you want.
Yeah, EdoPro has been around for a while! It's good but since I started playing Master Duel, I've found it to be a much slicker experience. The only problem is that you have to craft cards in MD and some of the Goat format staples (like Pot of Greed, Graceful Charity, etc.) are Ultra Rares which are more resource heavy to craft. It can also feel a bit hollow to craft them because they're banned in modern play so you can't use them on ladder and such.
But if you decide to get Master Duel, I'd be down to play a few games of Goat from time to time, I like that format!
I've been trying to find YGO players on here for ages but people seem to (understandably) broadly prefer other card games. I love YGO but the modern format is a mess and I understand why it would put people off the game. Retro formats like Goat, Edison, Tengu, or just limited in general are really fun though.
In the meantime you're welcome to play me in some lob through magic ruler drafts if you want on edopro since that's the easiest way for me to play. Let me know or shoot me a DM.
I would also play with you if you want :3
Lemme see if I can get edopro to build on my system
I haven't played Yugioh regularly in yearsss but I still love it
dm sent!
