Anyone else notice there was a full crowd at the start of the duel, but as it progressed there was less and less people until the end. There was almost nobody left. I guess they got tired of seeing zayn pull cyber end dragon out his ass every 10 seconds
The ending of this duel was one of the greatest things I've seen in Yugioh. Jaden and Zane pushing their monsters to ludicrous numbers in the tens, twenties, and even THIRTY thousands was one of the most hype things I ever saw. And that's on top of the emotional fulfillment of this scene. Zane showing Jaden respect and passing the torch, both characters' pure joy of just dueling, and the laughter they both shared while lying on their backs after a duel well fought. Like I expect Jaden do do that, but seeing the always serious Zane do it as well was just the cherry on top. What a perfect way to end the season!
balistic knight I feel like Zane’s parents must be really mad at themselves for having children because one child is an anxious little gremlin but the other is literally as emotionless as a table
Zane admires how unorthodox jaden is... jaden is the only duelist who duels off pure passion... he wanted to battle the jaden who loves to have fun not the jaden who overthinks everything because he’s afraid of losing.. jaden brings out the best in Zane from a competitive standpoint.. Zane wanted that same feel in their first battle that’s why it was necessary for jaden to fall back into the odd ball he usually is
I can't lie....I miss this kind of duelling. Nowadays even in the Vrains anime, its about locking your opponent from any interaction and giving them a 1 sided beat down. this duel, they are both showing their best! interaction and excitement

18:39 Jaden: "incredible, Zane. You really are perfect" Zane: "Yes, but at the same time, that's my limitation. Being perfect means that I have reached my limit and I can't go any further. But you, you have unlimited potential" The Japanese version gave us and important lesson on how being perfect is not always a good thing, you can always improve. As for this version... Well we have a cute passing of the torch I guess...
I preferred english take on this scene, really, but it implies the same thing but gives impression that Zane can still go farther. He just didn't have anybody to push him until now.

Technically, he never defeated Yubel either (because his duel against possessed Jesse was a draw and his final duel against Yubel ended with their spirits merging and the duel being stopped)
That's out of nowhere, and is almost as weird as in Part 1, where on his first turn, Zane uses Polymerization and his three Cyber Dragons, and Alexis goes "wOw hE's gOoD" like he just did something crazy skillful.
@@jamessinclair6113 I think its translation error. Recently I have been rewatching original yugioh, and the dub has so many weird lines that make no sense.

Just realized after all these years that Jaden actually won this duel, because he activated Battle fusion first. Zane's battle fusion would chain to jaden causing his dragon attack points to increase by shinning flare wingman's 4900 then jaden card would activate because it was played early in the chain increasing his wingman's attack by 20900 giving him no reason to activate final fusion.

Imagine getting hit with that much damage in a shadow duel where you feel real damage..... thats like 60k damage and the main charachters get real hurt at like 500 damage
@@danielbalderrama4137 That's true. A card like Declan Akaba's D/D/D Oracke King D'Arc makes all effect damage give you life points instead of taking them. That card completely nullifies the main benefit though the attack would still be negated.
Fun fact: This duel was planned to be the end of yugioh GX and the whole yugioh anime franchise that's why it is too damn good. Also due to Jaden's increasing popularity as well as the Hero archetype they decided to continue and give GX a second season. Yes, this could have been the last yugioh anime duel
@Limit woah :o thanks for the fun fact! I had no idea. Took me a bit to get use to the gx cards. I just loved the original so much. But those element hero decks where super fun to play! The destiny decks were a lot of fun to! Hell even the cyber dragon decks lol
Both season 2 and 3 were legendary season 2 finale was Jayden beating sartorius and season s3 was Jayden beating yubel and freeing his friends from the Star prison aka I sent them to the stars and he saved the world then we got s4 the finale season where Jayden saved the world from darkness and married Alexis
For sure! The original series was my childhood. But I did catch a few episodes of gx. After gx thing kinda fell off for me though. I ended up losing all my cards and all my friends that I had played with stopped playing. So I didn't have much of a reason to continue. I might go back and watch gx though. Yu-Gi-Oh was legendary
Is what you guys saying true and it was omitted from the 4kids dub? I know he did end up taking part in dangerous and illegal duels after his career as a professional fell through but did he also turn to substance abuse?
If you mean his loss to Aster and how he starts going downhill for awhile until he becomes Dark Zane it wasn't that he thought his friends abandoned him it was more his ideals of being a good sport and showing respect to your opponent that were reversed
@@digitaladventurer2142 At least in the dub, he actually gets convinced by Shroud in 'No Pain No Gain' that everyone has abandoned him and that he's all alone
Zane's entire self-confidence was built on being #1, the guy who never loses. Once he graduated he found out how much harder the Pro League is and kept losing. Without that respect he felt like he had nothing, having become addicted to the feel of victory, becoming desperate to get it back.
And Zane seemed very much the loner type imo not having any friends or even acquaintances outside of the gang at duel academy. Thing I guess you could say is they didn't check on eachother after Zane left duel academy. Phone calls between eachother. But Zane doesn't seem like the type of person to do that. You could say Syrus could have called him as he was concerned about him but would Zane have appreciated it?
Even tho I don't really like GX, I absolutely loved this ending. The way it was ended in a tie, makes it to where Zane and Jayden are now equals. I'm glad there was no winner. These duelists gave it their all.
For almost 8 years, "Cyber End Dragon" held the record for the highest achieved finite ATK in the series in this episode. This record was broken with the airing of episode 98 of the Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL anime, where "Number C39: Utopia Ray V" and "Number 104: Masquerade" achieved 83200 and 41700 ATK respectively, both topping Cyber End Dragon's record of 36900 ATK in this episode
Same but they were just using him to introduce the cyberdark deck archetype, even though IRL regular Cyber Dragons is a better deck so he swapped to a worse deck lol
Evil Zane could've been so cool. If they took the time to expand on his character development into his dark side instead of just rushing it in one freaking episode like wtf I would've liked to have seen Zane's fall and rise in the professional world of dueling.
I want to thank the company for putting on the Yu-Gi-Oh episodes on this description I'm internally grateful for this even as an adult I still love the show and game
can we talk about how much Jaden breaks the rules of Bubblemans effect? It needs to have no cards on his field, NOR in his hand, but he ALWAYS have some cards in his hand EVERY GOD DAMN TIME!
Well he had it right the first time when Bubbleman was introduced in episode six of season one called The Shadow Duelist part 2 and episode 16 of season 2 called the Homecoming Duel: Part 2. But I think if I recall that every other time he got it wrong.
anime cards may sometimes have different effects from the real life counterparts Do u think obelisk the tormentor kept the ability to tribute two Egyptian gods to have him gain infinity ATK?
Fun fact : If jaden would add wildheart to his hand instead of burst lady (with fusion recovery ) , he could summon both shinig flame wingman and wildheart , then after SFW destroys Cyber End , jaden could win with wildheart's direct attack
They change some of the cards abilities too. Really bubbleman doesn’t allow you to draw 2 cards unless he’s the only card in your field as well as your hand, but in the anime they say he only needs to be the only card in your field
@@sin6736 they change effects when they add the card to the actual game, most cards in the anime have op effects but in the real game they just have one part of said effect.
Yeah he is like the Kaiba of the series, except less arrogant and boastful, Zane is more chilled and actually respects Jaden unlike Kaiba who was generally someone who looked down on Yugi and was frustrated with always losing to him
In 2006 when I saw this episode for the 1st time I legit thought jaden was gonna beat Zane when I saw that he summoned his shining flare wingman but Zane saved himself
@@Trippy_Hawk i agree it was EPIC! But then Zane’s dueling career and skills went terribly downhill after he lost to aster and lost more duels after that! What a shame
@@carlosmiravete1159 Yeah, I think the show didn't know what to do with him as a character after season 1. Frankly, it was a problem the show had with a lot of its side characters but it hurts so much more with Zane because he was the only character in the same league as Jaden and had a unique role in the show.
@@carlosmiravete1159 At the end of season 3 Zane was about to beat Yubel but was unable to finish the match due to a heart attack. In the next episodes Jaden was about to get crushed by Yubel but he convinced her by "talk no jutsu". After season 2, Zane has improved a lot. He is better than Jaden as we all see
That's because the school covered up the disappearances and said they were "studying abroad" or some such, so he never really left their system or lost his ranking
Zane starts the duel with 3 cyber dragons and polymerization in his hand. He then uses polymerization to fuse the cyber dragons from his hand and Jaden’s mind is blown that he can do that. Jaden runs a fusion deck. The script is bullshit.
Usually I hate when writers cop out by refusing to have a clear winner between two characters presented as both being at the top of their game. But I'll make an exception here simply because this was a sweet duel. What a way to end the season.
@@alexchaser320 No dude, "I'm passing the torch to you" means when Zane leaves Jaden will be the #1 duelist in the academy. So he is passing his will on to Jaden to both represent and protect the school.
@@alexchaser320 If you want to say he won because he outwitted him, then I and cool with that. However, "I'm passing the torch" is not that he admitted defeat, it means he was passing his will to Jaden.

So the dual ended with both of them taking 57800 damage each from a single effect!?
Laretia pretty much
It a season one finale so he had to end it with a bang with all he had rather then taking a loss.
You have to add the ATK points befote dealing them.
LOL
Just realized after all these years that Jaden actually won this duel, because he activated Battle fusion first. Zane's battle fusion would chain to jaden causing his dragon attack points to increase by shinning flare wingman's 4900 then jaden card would activate because it was played early in the chain increasing his wingman's attack by 20900 giving him no reason to activate final fusion.
Jaden and Zane are the best characters of them all. Zane he always respected his opponents, and Jaden said goodbye to zane, and Jaden still had a the shadow charm pendant 18:39
This duel was incredible my dream duel would be kaiba vs zane Blue eyes ultimate Dragon vs Cyber end Dragon
Yes
My g
All Man u fans are my bros
Zane would annihilate Kaiba lol, chimeratech overdragon is so broken it would OTK Kaiba in an instant. Future fusion + Overload fusion = instant kill.
Zane has 0% chance. Kaiba can screw the rules
Yugi vs yuki vs yusei vs yuma
*Zane's turn*
Me: _"Lemme guess... something something revival... something fusion... another something.. _*_CYBER END DRAGON?!?!?"_*
Zane: No.......yes
I've always been a big fan of Zane and his decks. His Cyber monster that he used in season 1 can uses a retrain version.
Have you seen the extra cards for it? Cyber dragon core, Herz and Pharos not to mention xyz like cyber dragon nova and cyber dragon infinity
@@gamerchosis6666 I have. What I meant was those like Laser, Barrier, Kirin and Phoenix. A hand-trap version of Cyber Kirin would be useful.
@@AdPhDu1 I do need those cards in my cyber deck. I’m already waiting for my 2 Destiny Hero dreadmastet and Captain Tenacious to show up to finish my Destiny deck
Imagine getting hit with that much damage in a shadow duel where you feel real damage..... thats like 60k damage and the main charachters get real hurt at like 500 damage
They would be crippled at that much damage
@@alexandermcintyre3390 crippled? He would die on contact LMAO
True
That's nothing compared to the deul with darts
Well,
gladly this isn't a shadow Duel
Imagine having magic cylinder. This duel would have ended much faster.
Magic cylinder is stupidly op in the anime lol. Just randomly swinging with a 4k beater could end the game.
I got magic cylinder in my first deck
@@big_pip_energy_tt definitely a good card but it isn't invincible
@@redreboot483 It's also broken in pretty much anything in Yugioh
@@danielbalderrama4137 That's true. A card like Declan Akaba's D/D/D Oracke King D'Arc makes all effect damage give you life points instead of taking them. That card completely nullifies the main benefit though the attack would still be negated.
7:24 Jaden: I play pot of greed!
Me: WHAT DOES THAT DO???
Wow! When they said this duel was gonna be an Amazing duel they weren't lying.... This is my favorite duel of the series!
Fun fact: This duel was planned to be the end of yugioh GX and the whole yugioh anime franchise that's why it is too damn good.
Also due to Jaden's increasing popularity as well as the Hero archetype they decided to continue and give GX a second season.
Yes, this could have been the last yugioh anime duel
Unfortunately they had to continue when Elemental Hero Neos joined in
@@frankmiranda707 and every neo-spacian that came with it 😮💨
@Limit woah :o thanks for the fun fact! I had no idea. Took me a bit to get use to the gx cards. I just loved the original so much. But those element hero decks where super fun to play! The destiny decks were a lot of fun to! Hell even the cyber dragon decks lol
Then came Season 3, in my opinion, the best season out of all
Then we got card games on motorcycles and whatever the hell is zexal…
What a happy ending for season 1, wish I could say the same on season 2 and 3.
Season 2 didn't have a tragic ending.
@@herbcruz4697 it did in the dub cause it doesn't continue after the Yubel battle
We don’t talk about the Season 3 finale
@@artexjay The villain of Season 2 wasn't Yubel. It was Saiou/Sartorius.
Both season 2 and 3 were legendary season 2 finale was Jayden beating sartorius and season s3 was Jayden beating yubel and freeing his friends from the Star prison aka I sent them to the stars and he saved the world then we got s4 the finale season where Jayden saved the world from darkness and married Alexis
I never watched GX and beyond like I did the original series but watching these duels against the top duelist in the show is so satisfying.
For sure! The original series was my childhood. But I did catch a few episodes of gx. After gx thing kinda fell off for me though. I ended up losing all my cards and all my friends that I had played with stopped playing. So I didn't have much of a reason to continue. I might go back and watch gx though. Yu-Gi-Oh was legendary
@jacobburr3570 Indeed! The original series was my childhood too.
@@jacobburr3570 Also watched original as childhood, however up until 5Ds Yu-Gi-Oh is still a good series. After that it's not worth watching at all.
Playing the instrumental version of the Yu-Gi-Oh theme song at the end of the duel really worked well in this scenario
what a great episode but then Zane started doing drugs after highschool on the street
my favorite part of this comment is it's true
Electroshock duels: Not even once.
Nah he just got heavy into the bondage scene.
he was like i thought a school for duel monster would get me far in life! not even ITT technical institute would take him!
Is what you guys saying true and it was omitted from the 4kids dub? I know he did end up taking part in dangerous and illegal duels after his career as a professional fell through but did he also turn to substance abuse?
It's kinda sad seeing Zane laugh here knowing he gets tricked into believing all good friends abandoned him only a handful of episodes later
If you mean his loss to Aster and how he starts going downhill for awhile until he becomes Dark Zane it wasn't that he thought his friends abandoned him it was more his ideals of being a good sport and showing respect to your opponent that were reversed
@@digitaladventurer2142 At least in the dub, he actually gets convinced by Shroud in 'No Pain No Gain' that everyone has abandoned him and that he's all alone
that never made sense to me he graduated and left the island what did he expect they would all go with him and not graduate lol
Zane's entire self-confidence was built on being #1, the guy who never loses. Once he graduated he found out how much harder the Pro League is and kept losing. Without that respect he felt like he had nothing, having become addicted to the feel of victory, becoming desperate to get it back.
And Zane seemed very much the loner type imo not having any friends or even acquaintances outside of the gang at duel academy. Thing I guess you could say is they didn't check on eachother after Zane left duel academy. Phone calls between eachother. But Zane doesn't seem like the type of person to do that. You could say Syrus could have called him as he was concerned about him but would Zane have appreciated it?
My boy Jayden really just ate in the middle of a match😂 I’m shleep
I skipped that part
6:19 Those donuts look great! Jelly filled are my favorite :D
Those aren't donuts
don't be silly, of course they are
I've never seen food like whatever gx gives apart from simple things like fish

So nostalgic anyone watching in 2024

@@Samurrot07 I know, thats what makes it funny especially cause we usually hear him say Uoooooo
😂😂😂😂 glad I found your comment🕋
Even tho I don't really like GX, I absolutely loved this ending. The way it was ended in a tie, makes it to where Zane and Jayden are now equals. I'm glad there was no winner. These duelists gave it their all.
For almost 8 years, "Cyber End Dragon" held the record for the highest achieved finite ATK in the series in this episode. This record was broken with the airing of episode 98 of the Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL anime, where "Number C39: Utopia Ray V" and "Number 104: Masquerade" achieved 83200 and 41700 ATK respectively, both topping Cyber End Dragon's record of 36900 ATK in this episode
SPOILER: I really wish that Zane never got "corrupted" :(
He kinda gets a bit better in the undubbed Season 4…
Same but they were just using him to introduce the cyberdark deck archetype, even though IRL regular Cyber Dragons is a better deck so he swapped to a worse deck lol
ID IZ ME it was such a dumb change regular Zane was awesome, but emo Zane sucked
There’s another season?..I thought jaden fused with Yubel and it was over
Evil Zane could've been so cool. If they took the time to expand on his character development into his dark side instead of just rushing it in one freaking episode like wtf I would've liked to have seen Zane's fall and rise in the professional world of dueling.
I want to thank the company for putting on the Yu-Gi-Oh episodes on this description I'm internally grateful for this even as an adult I still love the show and game
Spihk Heartbust!? Spihk Heartbust mates internet friends for people in store when falcon server Dovidio's Facebook rifle was Purchased!
can we talk about how much Jaden breaks the rules of Bubblemans effect? It needs to have no cards on his field, NOR in his hand, but he ALWAYS have some cards in his hand EVERY GOD DAMN TIME!
Yeah, and he plays him every duel too because it's obviously broken af if thats the ruling
in the anime some cards got different op effects
To be fair, Zane repeatedly breaks the rules with power bond.
Everyone in the anime does.
Well he had it right the first time when Bubbleman was introduced in episode six of season one called The Shadow Duelist part 2 and episode 16 of season 2 called the Homecoming Duel: Part 2. But I think if I recall that every other time he got it wrong.
anime cards may sometimes have different effects from the real life counterparts
Do u think obelisk the tormentor kept the ability to tribute two Egyptian gods to have him gain infinity ATK?
Just imagine it wasn’t Final Fusion but Magic Cylinder 😂🤣
dude :D
You need a spellcaster to activate that card XD
@@strider8507 Actually you don’t.
@@strider8507 no you don’t. Syrus used it and he doesn’t had any on his field nor never used them
Then this episode would have been for not.
Jaden: Does that mean we have to Duel /again/...
Haha he sounded so hesitant and tired here, love it
Fun fact: They never dueled again… 😢
They do in season 3, but Jaiden was having panic attacks at the time and wasn't focused. Zane won and got angry at Jaiden for not trying.
Spoiler alert you guys

@@Yardnoc3103it didn't count Zane didn't attack

And Remember, don't under estimate the power of food. It's was food that saved the duel.
That’s why I main deck hungry hamberger
These two are overflowing the attack points. That's freaking insane.
9:56 Holy crap, Jaden just read Zanes mind. I think Jaden might have been cheating all along.
Lol good point 😂
He said unless out loud
Dude for real all he says is Unless
18:45
Judai: That's Kaiser for you! Perfect!
Kaiser: But at the same time that is my limit, Judai you have infinite pontential.
One of my favourites episodes of Yu-Gi-Oh period!
Fun fact : If jaden would add wildheart to his hand instead of burst lady (with fusion recovery ) , he could summon both shinig flame wingman and wildheart , then after SFW destroys Cyber End , jaden could win with wildheart's direct attack
I remember when this originally aired, it was 2 of the most stressful days of my childhood.
Do the writers come up with this stuff by practising with actual duels or do they just really use their imaginations?
Aloyus Knight imagination
It explains the bullshit they pull
They change some of the cards abilities too. Really bubbleman doesn’t allow you to draw 2 cards unless he’s the only card in your field as well as your hand, but in the anime they say he only needs to be the only card in your field
@@sin6736 they change effects when they add the card to the actual game, most cards in the anime have op effects but in the real game they just have one part of said effect.
Exactly what I said
Nobody:
Zane: let’s win more with Limiter Removal because who doesn’t like Cyber End Dragon ATK points on crack
I love how Zane is like the Kaiba or Shu of the series.
Actually I always thought Chazz/Jun was the Kaiba of GX.
@@thedevilsapprentice6666 chazz is Joey but smarter and a dickhead while Zane is kaiba but nicer
@@Unholy_XII No Syrus/Sho was the Joey of GX.
Yeah he is like the Kaiba of the series, except less arrogant and boastful, Zane is more chilled and actually respects Jaden unlike Kaiba who was generally someone who looked down on Yugi and was frustrated with always losing to him
@@lijonsa_music Kaiba: JADEN LOST!!!
That's a satisfying end to season 1. Honestly, they could've ended GX there and I'd be happy with it.
It was supposed to end here originally.
That totally make sense. I love how 4Kids dubbed with best actors
That last part never gets old and always makes me laugh.
The fact that the dual was paused due to a duelist taking a lunch break. LOL
5:58 crowler’s reactions are always hilarious
I would laugh Pokemon did same thing like doing to gym leader or Pokémon league or battling Gary
The cards to be printed are: Spy Hero (spell), Time Fusion (spell) and Soul Union (trap)
In 2006 when I saw this episode for the 1st time I legit thought jaden was gonna beat Zane when I saw that he summoned his shining flare wingman but Zane saved himself
Everyone in the whole world probably thought that back in ‘06 it was a awesome duel 😁
@@Trippy_Hawk i agree it was EPIC! But then Zane’s dueling career and skills went terribly downhill after he lost to aster and lost more duels after that! What a shame
@@carlosmiravete1159 sadly yes
@@carlosmiravete1159 Yeah, I think the show didn't know what to do with him as a character after season 1. Frankly, it was a problem the show had with a lot of its side characters but it hurts so much more with Zane because he was the only character in the same league as Jaden and had a unique role in the show.
@@carlosmiravete1159 At the end of season 3 Zane was about to beat Yubel but was unable to finish the match due to a heart attack. In the next episodes Jaden was about to get crushed by Yubel but he convinced her by "talk no jutsu". After season 2, Zane has improved a lot. He is better than Jaden as we all see
Let's take a moment to thank Konami for uploading these yugioh seasons to RUclips :) thank you Konami, very cool
Always a joy to see Zane and Jaden laugh together like good buddies.
13:18
Chaz "Zane can't attack til next turn, how long do I have to wait to see Jayden lose?"
*Duel ends next turn*
😂😂😂
3:31 because i am the main character i can live with 100 life points
Yugi had 50 when he was battling Weavil or whatever the name is.
I always liked that Jaden ate in the middle of a duel. It’s a nice character moment
nice message behind it don't forget your breakfast kids.
Zane playing Cyber Dragon Turbo was always so fun to watch as a kid
Love it how Alexis is smiling in admiration at Jaden in every scene.
Judai (Jaden) Yuki: The only Main Protagonist that actually eats during a duel.
And Ryou (Zane) was actually nice enough to let him eat.
I like how that Alexis brother was possessed and all of sudden comes back and he’s obelisk blue lol
He has always been Obelisk Blue and he didn’t leave because he wanted to so it’s not the same scenario as Chazz leaving.
@@PerfectAzrael he went missing and was possessed but I guess that doesn’t count
@@Jetstreamhustla That's the point.
That's because the school covered up the disappearances and said they were "studying abroad" or some such, so he never really left their system or lost his ranking
Zane: Im passing the torch to you
Jaden: I activate finals fusion
Zane: *I TAKE BACK EVERYTHING I JUST SAID*
This I what I call clever writing. Whoever wrote the script for the battle is a genius.
Zane starts the duel with 3 cyber dragons and polymerization in his hand. He then uses polymerization to fuse the cyber dragons from his hand and Jaden’s mind is blown that he can do that. Jaden runs a fusion deck. The script is bullshit.
FUTUREEEE FUSIONNNNN SO OP CARD OMG
Madoka Kaname its not near as fast irl, its a delayed effect that only summons it 2 turns later(2 turns in the future)
and they don't go to the graveyard they go out of play
scott49140 they go to the grave
@@scott49140 They do go to the grave
future fusion is broken not because it summons a fusion monster but because it sends material to the GY but sadly it got a errata
Usually I hate when writers cop out by refusing to have a clear winner between two characters presented as both being at the top of their game. But I'll make an exception here simply because this was a sweet duel.
What a way to end the season.
U may not know this but the winner was Jayden Zane admitted defeat wen he said I’m passing u the torch
@@alexchaser320 No dude, "I'm passing the torch to you" means when Zane leaves Jaden will be the #1 duelist in the academy. So he is passing his will on to Jaden to both represent and protect the school.
@@0doublezero0 that is also true we all jayden won he outsmarted Zane with final fusion trap card 🤭🤭🤭😃😃😃😃😏😏😏😏
@@alexchaser320 If you want to say he won because he outwitted him, then I and cool with that. However, "I'm passing the torch" is not that he admitted defeat, it means he was passing his will to Jaden.
@@0doublezero0 I’m fine with that we’re in agreement 😃😃😃
So playing with heart means not respecting the rules ?
Anime has different rules does nobody in this comment section understand that
Dude had 10 different ways to summon Cyber End Dragon.
That's his set-up.
His deck here was entirely to bring cyber end dragon nonmatyer if it was destroyed, removed or trapped.
zane runs cyber end turbo
11:07
Lol
Should have remove it from play. Then again Zane does have other cyber dragons
Jaden is like the Rocky of Duel monsters lmao
This is the greatest duel of this season
15:13 I love how both of the wingmen descend on the opponent after their effect like
*"I HEARD YOU WAS TALKING SMACK MOTHERFUCKER"*
4:29 Zane: "Now, it's my turn!"
It still IS his turn
No one:
Jaden always draws bubble man when he has no cards in his hand
Raving Raven he draws even when he had no cards he doesn’t need no cards
Just realized after all these years that Jaden actually won this duel, because he activated Battle fusion first. Zane's battle fusion would chain to jaden causing his dragon attack points to increase by shinning flare wingman's 4900 then jaden card would activate because it was played early in the chain increasing his wingman's attack by 20900 giving him no reason to activate final fusion.
3:41 that lil smile Alexis put up for Jaden when he survived the attack :)
