Hello @huyhoang8398, please add PROTON_LOG=1 %command% to the game's launch options and attach the generated $HOME/steam-$APPID.log to this issue report as a file. (Proton logs compress well if needed.) Also, please copy your system information from Steam (Steam -> Help -> System Information) and put it in a gist, then include a link to the gist in this issue report.
This is literally the only game that crashes my pc and it's been doing it since launch no matter the proton version.
@kisak-valve Couldn't play this game either so I decided to follow your instructions. Here you go: steam-1449850.log

Hello @Tholleman, can you test how the game behaves with the game's launch options set to PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 %command%?
The game launches now! Thank you so much!

Hi i am running an Ubuntu 23.04 and i have tried to start Master Duels with Proton version 08..03
And i have written in PROTON_USE_WINE3D=1 %command% and the game doesn't start and i have tried in my launch options to write PROTON_LOG=1 %command% and i don't get any debug.log file in my home directory?
Newest Update (v1.6.0) crashes (freeze on a black screen) now on my Arch machine.
According to Community Members on Steam Discussions are plugged in (virtual) controllers the culprit and they advice to remove all controllers and uninstall tools like vJoy.
It seems to work for some folks, but on Proton I have no luck, because I don't have controllers plugged in at all. The only virtual controllers (?) are Steam Input for Remote Play and Steam Controller, which can't be turned off.
Just found out my Keyboard of all things let Master Duel Crash.
Maybe because it has a mouse Emulation mode, idk
Tested on my Windows 11 drive, game just works with keyboard.
May be a Bug on Proton's end.
Tested on 8, Experimental and Experimental [bleeding-edge]; all times game freezes with plugged-in keyboard.
Did some experimenting and it seems there is a stack overflow happening with the keyboard plugged in.
Keyboard already in.log
Keyboard Pluggin in.log
Got hand on a "generic" USB Keyboard.
With it just works, no problem.
Plugging in my real keyboard (Ducky ONE 3) it just crashes instantly again.
I've found that although Master Duel is playable the performance on Linux is very poor compared to Windows.
In the main menu I get roughly the following performance (just eyeballing with MangoHud):
Stable 165 fps
Unstable frame rate, varies greatly depending on the number of displays I have turned on:
Unstable 50-70 fps
Surprisingly, changing the resolution from 2560x1440 to 1280x720 or other settings did not make even a small difference to the performance with any of the Proton versions I tried.

Happy to provide more info if needed.
On my system (tried both Arch and Nobara) on Proton 8 it does not start correctly. It freezes on a grey screen with no audio or anything. On Proton 7 it at least starts, but when using Wayland (Hyprland or KDE), tabbing out of and into the game freezes it as well but it seems random and does not happen consistently. Performance is also poorer than it should be with it only using about 30% of my GPU and hovering around the 100-120fps mark.

EDIT: I also could only reproduce the tabbing out freeze issue with the game in fullscreen mode, but that may just be because of the randomness
Hello @Teddy-Kun, please add PROTON_LOG=1 %command% to the game's launch options, reproduce the regression, and attach the generated $HOME/steam-$APPID.log to this issue report as a file. (Proton logs compress well if needed.) Also, please copy the contents of Steam Runtime Diagnostics from Steam (Steam -> Help -> Steam Runtime Diagnostics) and put it in a gist, then include a link to the gist in this issue report.
I can reproduce @Teddy-Kun problem. On Proton 8 starting the game with my (gaming) keyboard plugged in it just keeps getting stuck on a blackscreen, on Proton 7 it just works fine with it plugged in.
Here is my log and system info
steam-1449850.log
@kisak-valve I updated my previous comment with the requested resources. I hope it helps!
Hello @reDBo0n, you're implying that the game works for you with Proton 8 and that keyboard disconnected? Please clarify if that's true and exactly what model of keyboard you're using.
Yep, with my "Ducky 3 One" plugged in on Proton 8 the game doesn't work, but with a generic keyboard (according to lsusb "Chicony Electronics Co., Ltd HP USB Keyboard") it works again.
The game didn't freeze for me at launch when testing proton stable, tried with mesa 24 and 23.3.5 @Teddy-Kun I'm guessing you have the same keyboard as @reDBo0n ? And were all your tests on wayland? Or was it also freezing at launch on xorg?
@reDBo0n Have you tried Proton 9 yet with your Ducky 3 One keyboard? There was a bug with certain input hardware that should be fixed with 9.0-beta.
Tested the Proton 9 beta, problem still persists with my Ducky connected
Just a quick update on https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/5876#issuecomment-1784065864: Proton 9.0 (Beta) has fixed these performance issues for me and the game now maintains a steady 165 fps in the main menu as it does on Windows.
Update from my side:
Proton 9 Beta now works with my Ducky 3 One keyboard connected
@reDBo0n Thank you for the update! Great to hear :)
Hi, reopening the subject cause i have a similar problem, when i try to launch the game i can go up to the screen where you to click to launch the game, and when I do it my computer straight up reboots
I am using Ubuntu Noble Numbat 24.04.2
and as for my hardware i use "Lenovo Lenovo 14w Gen 2"
AMD 3015e with Radeon™ Graphics × 4

@Cypher5014 if it's causing your computer to reboot, there should be kernel logs for it. Something like the following could be used to share them: journalctl -k -b -1 > kernel.log. This should create the file kernel.log in your home folder. You may need to change the "-1" to something else, "-b -1" means you're selecting the journal log for the previous boot (if you play the game, and it causes the computer to reboot, the new boot would be 0 and the previous one, where it rebooted, would be -1), -2 is the one previous to that and so on.
Also, if you're attempting to run the game again, you can add this to the game's properties on steam, to its launch parameter: PROTON_LOG=1 %command%. This will generate a log file in your home folder called steam-1449850.log with proton related information.
Thank you for your answer, i ran the command and got the kernel log, but i actually don't understand anything when i open the log.
I'm attaching it to this message in case someone would be interested in checking what it contains.
By the way i didn't find where to put the PROTON_LOG=1 &command%
By the way i didn't find where to put the
PROTON_LOG=1 %command%
In your Steam Library right click Master Duel -> Properties there's a Launch Option field. Paste it in there.
