@@orochimaruorochimaru9730 I’m pretty sure it does. I had quintet and dark magician on the field with super poly set and I never got a cue to use it even though I had a card in my hand and 3 different fusion targets left in my extra deck.
@@alfonsopayan09 I don’t think mahad is summoned if you draw him right at the beginning of a duel in your opening turn ? Only when you draw him as the game goes on ?
While I do like the profile, I feel like he's missing rock monsters. In the anime, while it is said that Yami and Muto share the same deck, they do always play out very differently, with Yami Yugi used a lot of spellcasters and warriors and going hard on them while Yugi Muto used rock monsters too, with the Magnets and all.
@@aozorahaou2643 But still, magnet warriors are one the most yugi-esk cards that the old fans remember. He stopped using the gaias, curse of dragons, summoned skulls, etc. after season 2/3 but magnet warriors were introduced in season 2 and remained till the last ritual duel being a key part in his strategy to defeat the Egyptian gods.
I like the profile, and the direction you went with it. That said I got more of a Atem feel, instead of a Yugi feel, as I watch it. As a possibility, I would like to see an alternative profile that featured his other iconic monsters such as Magnets, Celtic, Gadgets, Silents and Gandora. Okay, that and what Joey's deck could've been like in DSOD and/or GX. Anyone else wondered that, or just me?
*Silent Swordsman and Silent Magician sad noises* But more seriously I kinda like what you did there. I could honestly see Yugi work with this deck in future special movies or in voice actor exhibition matches
So this is the Deck Yugi will use when your version of Jaden finally duels him. I would've also included Apprentice Illusion Magician since she has a Tricky-like effect and can add DM to your hand. Also, I have tried to make a Turbo Deck for Kaiba because he invented Synchro Summoning and let's face it, he would totally deck out a motorcycle to look like a Blue-Eyes White Dragon and have the Duel Stadiums play his theme song as he entered. The problem was that the Speed Spells were hard to use as substitutes for his normal spells.
I get that speed spell issue..... they are the entire reason why I don't like Turbo Duels in the 5Ds anime, I would recommend maybe ignoring that and doing something like what they did in the 5Ds manga or the Arc-V anime. No speed spell issues there.
@@Gop_delau_Nik20 "Master of Faster" was a title made-up by the dub... the original title was "Duel King", which to most dub watchers was previously known as "King of Games"..... So if Kaiba ever got the title from Yugi at some point, then Yes.
I understand that deck size constraints are a thing, but seeing as they're barely adhered to in the anime, I'd love to see a small Magnet Warrior (complete with Electromagnets, Berserkion & Imperion Magnum ofc) - and possibly also a Sentry Soldier of Stone - package added to the recipe (even if only as a side deck/alternative option). Nevertheless this video was *such* a cool idea and really does seem to fit Yugi perfectly; it would also give him a realistic chance of not getting left in the dust given the faster paced, more advanced game that Duel Monsters would have become. Seriously, if I had a dollar for everytime I've seen a nostalgia-blind fan declare (falsely) with chest that post-DM Yugi is the best duelist in the franchise & would easily beat every/any other character because 'KiNg Of GaMeS', I'd be even richer than Kaiba. Sure he went toe-to-toe with 'Prime' Jaden at the end of GX but there's no way that that same 'Prime' Yugi gets that kind of result if paired with other characters, such as Zane, Yusei, Don Thousand etc. in their respectives primes; with this deck though... I could legitimately see him running this and not getting curb-stomped. I particularly love the inclusion of potential combo monsters in the rare instance we'd see a tag duel, especially Dragoon since Yugi _could_ use it even without Joey's help - it would just require a scenario like Battle City to give him temporary possession of Joey's Red-Eyes. But yeah, I *love* this concept as it gives a plausible deck recipe to allow Yugi to be the competent duelist he's shown to be, while still giving him room to grow and learn (e.g he could always 'stumble across' appropriate Synchro/XYZ/Pendulum/Link monsters to bolster his deck, if a video series about continuing Yugi's journey hypothetically went in that direction). I would totally watch a series like that too if you were hypothetically making one but alas, you're totally not. Aaaaand if you've made it this far, thanks for coming to my TED Talk. 😂
THANK YOU! That's actually a huge part of why I wanted to make this series in the first place. Yeah, Yugi is great (even if no one really had great metadecks during Duel Monsters through Arc V) but there's no way he'd be able to take on Playmaker or anyone really during the later seasons without adapting to the faster pace of more modern Duel Monsters! Unless he begins to incorporate the various extra deck methods, the King of Games would get left behind! And I enjoyed your TED Talk! Thank you for writing it!
@@SpellCommander91 I agree and disagree. Yugi is the king of games so he will always be victorious in the end. He will beat Playmaker, but Playmaker wouldn't loose due to lack of skill but because he duels solely with vengeance in his heart which is what Yugi/Atem states repeatedly that you will never be able to beat him with. However it makes complete sense that Yugi will update his deck in accordance to his surroundings, growth, and experience. You can't be the king of games if you are stagnant.
@@SpellCommander91 I'd imagine Yugi would be adding Black Luster Soldier - Soldier of Chaos to his extra deck when fighting playmaker. One of my favorite cards ever.
Yugi is the greatest duelist of all time even above pharaoh stem. Zane, yusei, don thousand etc… are no match for him. That’s just his character hea just the goat. Yu yu takahashi wrote him like that and he is the creator of yugioh. Yugi is jordan u can say yusei is lebron. He has better statistics etc…. But both in their prime there’s no comparison. Yugi wins easily! Just like Jordan would sweep lebron. Yugi is the goat I don’t even think the jordan analogy does it justice since yugi is so above everyone else. His skill is so above everyone his closest rival is himself thousands of years ago lol
@@purplesky4157 I would say his rival would mostly be Seto kaiba since I could some what rival the Pharoah strength but it a tough match for yugi if he's dueling kaiba the dude who invention shynroc summoning and updated his deck the most times beside like Joey Yugi/Atem
I would say, Specifically a post "Bonds Beyond Time" Jaden Deck. I would also LOVE to see a Yuma Deck that just.... Not such a confusing Mix of cards... like the Achacha cards and rairaider do very little to add to his XYZ Strategy.
For the Gaia monster, I would have chosen Gaia the Magical Knight since his ability to normal summon it to the field is very easy to pull off, plus it helps support the curse of dragon, cursed dragon by having it able to also special summon it from the hand or graveyard, giving him two monsters and a potential fusion monster for the price of 1 normal summon.
Personally I just think it's missing 1 card His signature monster that he used on the movie While dark magician is the signature monster of yami and yugi The one which represents yugi alone is Gandora Personally 1 copy of either forms of gandora should be in the deck but that's just me And I guess we could see Joey or idk... Mai's deck next? I wonder what kind of strategy would she employ without access to the synchro harpie lady and those other extra deck methods harpies.
Really Dark Magician was always Atem's card. when it appears in Dark side of dimensions I kinda assumed that That was the card Yugi had kept to remember Atem by. honestly, Yugi's deck would either be Magician girl and gadget/electromagnet warriors.
For me Yugi should have two deck: one focused on Gadgets/Magnet Warriors an one focussed on Magicians/Warriors monsters. One common mistake that everyone makes is assume that Yugi's deck is basically a pure spellcasters deck with Dark magician as his only ace. But in reality, Yugi has more that one ace and is deck isn't always the same. He constantly change his deck depending on the opponent he is fighting with. In the final duel against Atem his deck was specifically built to play around the Egyptian gods and exploit the draw power of his opponent, in DSOD he builth his deck Specifically to counter Kaiba's hight Atk monsters with alot of battle based cards like the whole Magician Girl engine. So in conclusion Yugi doesn't have an ace in particular, sometimes is Gandora, sometimes is Dark Magician, Sometimes is Silent Magician... he always switch depending on who is dealing with.
I feel like celtic guardian should've been here along with some magnets mahad and mana feel more like yami exclusives since in the movie its implied mahad was added through magic. Other than that the list is great.
I think we need a Winged Dragon, Guardian of the Fortress retrain. Was always one of my favourites. Love the video. Always nice to see these Yugi cards being discussed.
I've pondered this exact question so thanks for making a cool vid on it 👍 Edit: I'm surprised Apprentice Illusion Magician and Dark Magical Circle weren't included. Zane, Jaden, and Kaiba would be cool additions to this series
Also I think Timeaus the Dragon of Destiny could fit in too as Pegasus could've decided to recreate the 3 Legendary Dragons into actual monster cards not spells
You didn't wanna make Yugi a complete monster and give him Red Eyes dark dragoon? I can imagine Kaiba's reaction if he got beat by a monster summoned using Joey's "pathetic" card.
"That I am definitely not writing." This will show up in the GX rewrite... won't it? Also, there are a lot more then just GX era cards appearing here..... guess Dsod really shoves a wrench into things powercreep wise. Also, there are a LOT more cards you could have added for Yugi here.... first to come to mind being the Silient Magician and Swordman that he got to use against Atem, as well as Gandora... then the gadgets, and the Magnet Warriors and Marshmelon. I kinda want them all to be represented but there is way to much shove all in one deck... hmm, is there a way to work around that? Like giving him multiple decks that he rotates around using?
Since there’s been a lot of Blue-Eyes support over the years, let’s see a Deck Profile for Seto Kaiba. I’d definitely like to see how he uses some of the new Blue-Eyes support in the main series and not just in the Dark Side of Dimensions movie.
Love your hypothetical future deck profiles for everyone. You should absolutely make some pseudo anime duel video with the decks you built for them. That would be tight... And by the way, I know you already did a Joey deck. But you should redo it but have him representing the Zexal era so he can have Xyz summoning for his Red-Eyes Flare Metal Dragon. Which is like the best piece of Red-Eyes support ever made. Either way, you are making some really cool content. Keep it up!
I kind of want to see how Joey’s deck would be. I read a fanfiction about Joey being a teacher at the GX Academy and seeing how you would interpret his luck based deck/ Red Eyes deck would be super cool!
@@purplesky4157 That’s a mistranslation, he was a top 5 favorite of Pegasus (along with Aster Phoenix and somebody else) but top 3 skilled duelist was never stated.
You should also have videos on Seto Kiaba's Deck, Joey Wheeler's Deck, and also lastly Mai Valentine's Deck in the Yugioh GX Yugioh Anime and also Manga Series Era of Yugioh Duel Monsters too!
I feel like its more of a Yami deck profile than yugis tho i guess it is more in line with the last movie but since it is more of a Yami drak magician/chaos deck i feel like The Eye Of Tomias would be great as another fusion spell that would also give access to some other fusion monster it would'ne have worked in the context of the show, but so does this deck to some extant
Three things that I would say the deck/side deck is missing are Yugi's unique aces that separated him from Atem. Gadgets + Gadget support traps, Silent Magician and Silent Swordsman, and a Gandora variant.
Sorcerer of dark magic and dark eradicator warlock are so hard to get on the field for me but once they get on the field it's practically a win for me XD
The silent cards would also work really well with the field spell. After all shutting down spells is what they excel at and they represent Yugi's growth. They were important enough to be in his Dark Side of Dimensions deck and I don't see him letting them go just as I don't see him not using dark magician.
Great profile. Cards I would've liked to see in the profile would be timaeus and the fusions it makes with DM and DMG. As for next profile well you already did Yugi. Ya gotta do the Godfather of Games Joey Wheeler next amirite
One card you missed that's a definite "Yugi" card while also holding the distinction of not being a "Yami" card - Gandora the Dragon of Destruction! I point it out because it featured in both of his important duels at the end of Season 5 as a card to distinguish him as separate and unique from Yami (as opposed to being "Yami-Lite"). (Plus he was still using it as "Gandora-X" during Dark Side of Dimensions)
Can't wait to see you do Kaiba, Joey, Mai, Marik, Ishizu, Odion, Rex, Weevil, Espa Roba, Mako, Pegasus, Rebecca, and Duke etc. given their support in the recent years Oh and I hope you do a 5DS decklist for Jaden given the Hero support he's gotten yeah he won't be turbo dueling much thanks to Speed Counters shutting down his Fusion Summoning with spells until his speed counters reach a certain numbers, BUT there are Traps that allow him to Fusion Summon and he still Contact Fusion except its weakness without Neo Space giving the field spell in Turbo Duels can't change
I'm actually surprised we didn't see Dark Sage in the Virtual World Arc during Yugi & Joey's tag duel against the Big Five. It would've been epic to see Joey pull his Time Wizard when both his Baby Dragon and Yugi's Dark Magician were on the field because then it would've been a double payoff for Time Wizard's effect.
I really love this profile! Do one for the other eras too, please. Some cards worth review; Monster Reborn, Guardian Chimera, Legacy of the Duelist, Destined Rivals, Joker's Knight, Breaker the magical warrior, Dimension Conjurer, Dark Magic Inheritance, Dark Magic Circle, Gateway to Chaos, Magician's Salvation, Mystical Elf - Mystical Burst Stream, Obnoxious Celtic Guard and Super Soldier Shield. Legacy of the Duelist lets yugi spam Souls and more efficiently deal with backrow. Guardian Chimera feels like a retrain, its super generic and is a power house. Destined Rivals is a searchable negate. Joker's Knight is a recurring body. The spell line up needs work because it requires very specific monsters be on the field while ignoring the spells that act as searchers.
I would like to see more of the profiles in the GX era, particularly the OG characters. What cards would they use in the GX era/modern era. Also, I'm surprised Red Eyes Dragoon isn't on. But I assume that's for Joey.
I want to see a Joey video. A Zexal era deck would be nice, but I'd like to see some fun scenarios. What If rematch/tag team duels involving Joey with Yugi/Kaiba video using these decks you make would be nice.
This felt more like a new yami deck. I would say a yugi deck would need gadgets and maybe even ancient gears since they combine support sometimes. I think yugi going with gadgets, ancient gear, and magnets would be super cool
I was born in the early two thousands so I might’ve heard it called the fusion deck but I definitely seen it called the Fusion deck when it was on my brothers game mats.
@@jonathangeorge3789Really? I never noticed that. Now I wish there was a card that could tie in all the archetypes Yugi uses (magician, luster/Gaia, archfiend/skull, magnets, kuriboh, card knights, buster, and of course the gods)
Curse of Dragon Fire and Sky Galloping Dragon Champion would’ve also been nice to mention as they’re more than just beat sticks. Along with the other retrains of Gaia.
Two cards that I think Yugi would have in his Side Deck if he duels against Dragon users would be "Bluster Blader, The Dragon Destroyer Swordsman" and "Destruction Swordsman Fusion"
Really? How so? Forgive me on my lack of knowledge on the game mechanics, but I am curious since GX is my favorite and I just started watching VRAINS and love it. Would you please, tell me how Jaden would fare in that era in simple terms?
@@JakeSmith-mq5dc The 3 main HERO archetypes (Elemental, Destiny, and Evil) all have their own link monsters, and cards like Stratos have been released since his Era, plus I want to see his speed duel skills or if SpellCommander will just pull his Duel Links skills for use.
I'd would add to the fusion deck the Dragon Knights, Dark Magician The Dragon Knight and Dark Magician Girl The Dragon Knight since they could also be summoned using the de Curse of Dragon The Cursed Dragon as the required dragon needed. (and by that extend could get him Dragoon as well)
Overall I really like this, but I do have some suggestions: 1) I would have liked to see Marshmallon in place of Watapon or Big Shield Guardna as a reference to the final duel in DM. After all, this is Yugi's deck, not Atem's. 2) More draw power plz. Anime duels play a ton of cards, which is why they relied so heavily on Pot of Greed. The busted anime version of Card of Demise would also be a good option. 3) Speaking of busted anime versions, Relay Soul always made for a great dramatic turnarounds, and would be cool to see with his juiced up monsters. 4) Yu-Jo Friendship. Just because it would be funny to see him play a card with his face on it.
I would have added slifer the sky dragon to it somehow. It is a God card and yugi would also have a connection to the pharaoh through this card or one that is similar in effect or art. He didn't lose the cards after the final season that I'm aware of so it being in the deck would be a massive power boost even if it stands out. Also it's a dragon so it could be fusion summoned in place of curse of dragon sometimes.
Skilled Red Magician also tutors out any Archfiend monster. So you have a Skilled Magician for Dark Magician, Buster Blader, Gaia The Fierce Knight monsters and Archfiend monsters and by extension Summoned Skull.
Great what if video! I have a very small nitpick tho, DSOD Yugi is manga Yugi, and GX Anime Yugi most probally is the DM anime Yugi, it wouldnt change in anyways your deckbuilding anyways
I get some of the newer cards like the magician girls and bond between teacher cuz they showed up in the movies where canonically his deck was made before gx happened... But magikuriboh came out LAST WEEK dude.
Black Luster soldier support cards like Black Luster soldier- Sacred Soldier the mini Black Luster soldiers, Super soldier synthesis ritual, gate way to chaos.
What happened to Grandora the dragon of destruction. That became a signature card for Yugi separate from Atem. He used versions in every duel without Atem.
This feels more like a yami yugi deck profile. You are missing monsters like gandora, the magnet warriors, the silents or the gadgets. good video tho i enjoyed it

@@NeroPiroman it prevents this joke from being funny
@@Harden2234 thanks for the clarification they never explained it in the show

You should do more possible profiles like these. This was great and I may use the deck for character duels with my brother.
Awesome. Thank u for this. Honestly Joey and Kaiba are my fav "first gen" Yu-Gi-Oh characters
Since there’s been a lot of Blue-Eyes support over the years, let’s see a Deck Profile for Seto Kaiba. I’d definitely like to see how he uses some of the new Blue-Eyes support in the main series and not just in the Dark Side of Dimensions movie.
Love your hypothetical future deck profiles for everyone. You should absolutely make some pseudo anime duel video with the decks you built for them. That would be tight... And by the way, I know you already did a Joey deck. But you should redo it but have him representing the Zexal era so he can have Xyz summoning for his Red-Eyes Flare Metal Dragon. Which is like the best piece of Red-Eyes support ever made. Either way, you are making some really cool content. Keep it up!
I kind of want to see how Joey’s deck would be. I read a fanfiction about Joey being a teacher at the GX Academy and seeing how you would interpret his luck based deck/ Red Eyes deck would be super cool!
Joey was just world's luckiest duelist he hardly knows anything lol
@@markmagician2471 still was a top 3 duelist in the gx era only behind yugi and kaiba
@@purplesky4157 That’s a mistranslation, he was a top 5 favorite of Pegasus (along with Aster Phoenix and somebody else) but top 3 skilled duelist was never stated.
This was a project I wanted to see for years, someone building Yugi's deck using the modern counterparts.
Awesome Deck profile, I'm definitely gonna play test it. Plz do one for Bakura
You should also have videos on Seto Kiaba's Deck, Joey Wheeler's Deck, and also lastly Mai Valentine's Deck in the Yugioh GX Yugioh Anime and also Manga Series Era of Yugioh Duel Monsters too!
Okay I saw that tease for a ZeXal era Joey. I need that video man.
Your thumbnails are banging 👌
This is great love this!
Great deck profile dude
Yugi is so cool
Great video dude. I'd live to see a Kaiba deck profile for 5Ds
Really like your creative videos, more pls :))
OOOOOOOOOOOOO This could could count as Atem's deck and make a Yugi deck with the Magnet Warriors and the Knights. :D
I feel like its more of a Yami deck profile than yugis
tho i guess it is more in line with the last movie
but since it is more of a Yami drak magician/chaos deck
i feel like The Eye Of Tomias would be great as another fusion spell that would also give access to some other fusion monster
it would'ne have worked in the context of the show, but so does this deck to some extant
Would like to see this contents of more protagonists playing decks in different era (for example: Yusei Muto in Zexal)
Need more of these videos for the rest of the characters…even the more obscure ones like Tristan with the battle guards lol
Three things that I would say the deck/side deck is missing are Yugi's unique aces that separated him from Atem. Gadgets + Gadget support traps, Silent Magician and Silent Swordsman, and a Gandora variant.
Sorcerer of dark magic and dark eradicator warlock are so hard to get on the field for me but once they get on the field it's practically a win for me XD
I'd love to see Joey and Jaiden's future decks because I love Heroes and the Red-Eyes line.
That would be nice
The silent cards would also work really well with the field spell. After all shutting down spells is what they excel at and they represent Yugi's growth. They were important enough to be in his Dark Side of Dimensions deck and I don't see him letting them go just as I don't see him not using dark magician.
Great profile.
Cards I would've liked to see in the profile would be timaeus and the fusions it makes with DM and DMG.
As for next profile well you already did Yugi. Ya gotta do the Godfather of Games Joey Wheeler next amirite
Interesting video idea! I'm surprised the Silent cards didn't return, though.
I wonder how Joey's deck might've evolved!
One card you missed that's a definite "Yugi" card while also holding the distinction of not being a "Yami" card - Gandora the Dragon of Destruction! I point it out because it featured in both of his important duels at the end of Season 5 as a card to distinguish him as separate and unique from Yami (as opposed to being "Yami-Lite"). (Plus he was still using it as "Gandora-X" during Dark Side of Dimensions)
Can't wait to see you do Kaiba, Joey, Mai, Marik, Ishizu, Odion, Rex, Weevil, Espa Roba, Mako, Pegasus, Rebecca, and Duke etc. given their support in the recent years
Oh and I hope you do a 5DS decklist for Jaden given the Hero support he's gotten yeah he won't be turbo dueling much thanks to Speed Counters shutting down his Fusion Summoning with spells until his speed counters reach a certain numbers, BUT there are Traps that allow him to Fusion Summon and he still Contact Fusion except its weakness without Neo Space giving the field spell in Turbo Duels can't change
I'm actually surprised we didn't see Dark Sage in the Virtual World Arc during Yugi & Joey's tag duel against the Big Five. It would've been epic to see Joey pull his Time Wizard when both his Baby Dragon and Yugi's Dark Magician were on the field because then it would've been a double payoff for Time Wizard's effect.
I really love this profile! Do one for the other eras too, please.
Some cards worth review; Monster Reborn, Guardian Chimera, Legacy of the Duelist, Destined Rivals, Joker's Knight, Breaker the magical warrior, Dimension Conjurer, Dark Magic Inheritance, Dark Magic Circle, Gateway to Chaos, Magician's Salvation, Mystical Elf - Mystical Burst Stream, Obnoxious Celtic Guard and Super Soldier Shield. Legacy of the Duelist lets yugi spam Souls and more efficiently deal with backrow. Guardian Chimera feels like a retrain, its super generic and is a power house. Destined Rivals is a searchable negate. Joker's Knight is a recurring body. The spell line up needs work because it requires very specific monsters be on the field while ignoring the spells that act as searchers.
I would like to see more of the profiles in the GX era, particularly the OG characters. What cards would they use in the GX era/modern era.
Also, I'm surprised Red Eyes Dragoon isn't on. But I assume that's for Joey.
I want to see a Joey video. A Zexal era deck would be nice, but I'd like to see some fun scenarios. What If rematch/tag team duels involving Joey with Yugi/Kaiba video using these decks you make would be nice.
This felt more like a new yami deck. I would say a yugi deck would need gadgets and maybe even ancient gears since they combine support sometimes. I think yugi going with gadgets, ancient gear, and magnets would be super cool
i be down to see one of joey's deck nexts
You should do kabia 5ds beacuse he was mentioned a lot in that series. He also got decent support during that era.
Can't wait to see the Joey deck profile
I want to see u do one for Jaden after Yu-Gi-Oh GX.
Seems like a fun deck, might juts play it for fun
This is super cool!
I was born in the early two thousands so I might’ve heard it called the fusion deck but I definitely seen it called the Fusion deck when it was on my brothers game mats.
Face card knights, catapult turtle, magnets, chimera the mythical beast, mystical elf, Gardena, and Celtic: “Are we a joke to you?”
Yes
@@Jesse-ef2qf didn’t they just get support, aside for catapult
@@silverslayer6262 Well catapult turtle became part of Gaia’s archetype
@@jonathangeorge3789Really? I never noticed that. Now I wish there was a card that could tie in all the archetypes Yugi uses (magician, luster/Gaia, archfiend/skull, magnets, kuriboh, card knights, buster, and of course the gods)
I would say do Jaden, but I feel like his rewrite deck will pan out that way anyhow. :D
Curse of Dragon Fire and Sky Galloping Dragon Champion would’ve also been nice to mention as they’re more than just beat sticks. Along with the other retrains of Gaia.
This deck sounds like it be so much fun to play.
would love to see versions of joeys and kaibia decks during gx
Like to see a 5ds version of this good job alot of gx characters are getting whooped with this
Two cards that I think Yugi would have in his Side Deck if he duels against Dragon users would be "Bluster Blader, The Dragon Destroyer Swordsman" and "Destruction Swordsman Fusion"
Ooh another series?
Id love to see one for Kaiba
Isn't he in the afterlife?
@@RenegadeStriker7 No, Takahashi put out a photo showing Yugi and kaiba 4 years after dark side of dimensions playing Yugi's game that he created
@@RenegadeStriker7 kaiba beats the afterlife
Yes I do remember when it was the fusion deck 😊
i think yugi would also keep monster reborn and swords of revealing light in his deck
Oh man. Jaden in the VRAINS Era would be insane. Any of those last few ideas would be insane.
Really? How so? Forgive me on my lack of knowledge on the game mechanics, but I am curious since GX is my favorite and I just started watching VRAINS and love it. Would you please, tell me how Jaden would fare in that era in simple terms?
@@JakeSmith-mq5dc The 3 main HERO archetypes (Elemental, Destiny, and Evil) all have their own link monsters, and cards like Stratos have been released since his Era, plus I want to see his speed duel skills or if SpellCommander will just pull his Duel Links skills for use.
@@lukevolts9005 Thanks for sharing. I feel out of the loop when the conversations get meta since I am only a casual fan.
I'd would add to the fusion deck the Dragon Knights, Dark Magician The Dragon Knight and Dark Magician Girl The Dragon Knight since they could also be summoned using the de Curse of Dragon The Cursed Dragon as the required dragon needed. (and by that extend could get him Dragoon as well)
Cool!! Can you do a version of Jaden’s deck in today time please !!🥺
Overall I really like this, but I do have some suggestions:
1) I would have liked to see Marshmallon in place of Watapon or Big Shield Guardna as a reference to the final duel in DM. After all, this is Yugi's deck, not Atem's.
2) More draw power plz. Anime duels play a ton of cards, which is why they relied so heavily on Pot of Greed. The busted anime version of Card of Demise would also be a good option.
3) Speaking of busted anime versions, Relay Soul always made for a great dramatic turnarounds, and would be cool to see with his juiced up monsters.
4) Yu-Jo Friendship. Just because it would be funny to see him play a card with his face on it.
I would have added slifer the sky dragon to it somehow. It is a God card and yugi would also have a connection to the pharaoh through this card or one that is similar in effect or art. He didn't lose the cards after the final season that I'm aware of so it being in the deck would be a massive power boost even if it stands out. Also it's a dragon so it could be fusion summoned in place of curse of dragon sometimes.
He’s gonna be needing more Polymerizations for all of those fusion cards.
I like it!
Skilled Red Magician also tutors out any Archfiend monster. So you have a Skilled Magician for Dark Magician, Buster Blader, Gaia The Fierce Knight monsters and Archfiend monsters and by extension Summoned Skull.
I think there’s also a Skilled Brown Magician for Kuriboh now.
Great what if video! I have a very small nitpick tho, DSOD Yugi is manga Yugi, and GX Anime Yugi most probally is the DM anime Yugi, it wouldnt change in anyways your deckbuilding anyways
I get some of the newer cards like the magician girls and bond between teacher cuz they showed up in the movies where canonically his deck was made before gx happened...
But magikuriboh came out LAST WEEK dude.
I would change up a couple like adding in a couple level monsters and a dragon that can destroy everything
He already has a gx deck, in season 1 I think when yugi’s deck goes on tour (except for the god cards)
One of the materials for Dark Master of Chaos has to be a Chaos or Black Luster Soldier RITUAL monster.
I really wish we got another spin off series just to see these new cards
Black Luster soldier support cards like Black Luster soldier- Sacred Soldier the mini Black Luster soldiers, Super soldier synthesis ritual, gate way to chaos.
deck profile that insect guy!! i always liked him
Cool deck
Would love you put together a Deck for Yusei for DM Era
What happened to Grandora the dragon of destruction. That became a signature card for Yugi separate from Atem. He used versions in every duel without Atem.
Please make a Jaden deck list for Vrains 😭❤️ that would be amazing
Other possible cards:Magnet warrior, king, jack and queens knight serie, Celtic warrior series, silent warrior and magician, Gandora x.
You forgot Yugi's ACE MONSTER!!
Gandora the Dragon of Destruction,
or it is now Gandora X, was Yugis ace when dueling Bakura and Atem.
In my gx rp one of the main decks used by a villain is Kaiju's. Quintet Magician is immune.
ALL of the classic eras, and then put them into a tournament!
This feels more like a yami yugi deck profile. You are missing monsters like gandora, the magnet warriors, the silents or the gadgets. good video tho i enjoyed it
maybe you could do all the protagonists in the next show so
jaden in 5ds , yusei in zexal and so on
Since this little yugi's deck gandora the dragon of destruction would been a good one
