Still need the line star archetype

Dude time wizard is an archetype...and gambling deck 😂

the disrespect konami has towards my boy makes me so mad, at least make red-eyes better 😭

@@isamuddin1 i still dread the day we get "red-eyes time magician"

@@matthewpopow6647 Some protection effect with Brooklyn Rage counters, I imagine.

Summoned skull does have archtype

He also mentions Archfiend of gilfer

Well for what it's worth. Archfiends are more of Titian's archetype

Summoned skull is a Archfiend card but he didn't inspire the archetype and isn't the backbone of it like DM or BE

Well yes but also no. It's only an archfiend on accident, it did not inspire the archetype

Why would you when it can top a Japanese regional in modern yugioh 😂 that will never not be absolutely hilarious to me that a dude won it all with a Celtic guardian turbo deck

You are correct, specially because there is a blue eyes monster for the archetype.

There are a ton of elves too, honestly they could just take all the elves with celtic guardian (elf swordsman in japan) and just make them all celtic guard monsters. Mystical Celtic Guard Elf, Dark Celtic Guard Elf, maybe even include stuff like winged dragon celtic guardian of the fortress and beaver celtic guard and feral celtic guard imp or something

Yeah I always saw him as the Link (Nintendo character) and Mystic Elf, the Zelda, of his Deck. Back when Yugioh was about Fantasy creatures

Yugi's deck was his grandpa's deck

and kuriboh continued to be an eldritch abomination.

I would like to suggest Summoned Skull specifically became Archfiend Commander in this scenario. They have the same stats and lightning motif.

I like this headcannon.

So, funny story. You're not too far off. See, there's a series of monsters called the "Skilled Magicians". There's five of them, and they all share an effect. When they have three spell counters, they summon a different monster. The first two were the White and Black magicians. They summon the Buster Blader and the Dark Magician, respectively. Later on, we got Blue, Red, and Brown. They summon Gaia, Kuriboh, and any Archfiend (despite what TGS says, the Summoned Skull DID become an archetype).

The original Gaia likely canonically became The Black Luster Soldier, so there's an added layer to that too

If I recall, a few spin-offs like a fusion form, a ritual monster, an XYZ card, that all basically say 'this is Summoned Skull btw, and if it dies out comes another Summon Skull'. Be cool if Skull got a fusion with Dark Magician/Magician Girl, or some kind of new form forged by the Claw of Hermos.

Skull Archfiend should be its official name, since it is part of the archfiend archetype

Isn't archfiends his deck? He was called Demon or Daemon in the japanese versión and that's how that archtype is called

I mean TECHNICALLY Summoned Skull was the first in the Archfiend archetype. The Chess Archfiends have a retrain of him with Skull Archfiend of Lightning and the Empire Archfiends have the retrain Archfiend Commander.

summoned skull also have a ritual,fusion, synchro and and xyz that float into vanilla summoned skull aside from archfiends

This has been true for most of the series. Yes, they seemingly follow the rules more closely in Battle City, but most duels still revolve around one big boss monster being summoned and you having to find a way around their effects. In Battle City, those were mostly God Cards, but also Exodia or Bakura's ouija board deck.

Speaking of Zelda, the legendary heroes arc 43-45 did feel like Zelda a little bit! Even Iru (played by Misty's voice actor) the fairy was a direct reference to Navi!

Well, Celtic Guardian fits well with the noble night Archetype especially the Infernabels. They could always combined find a deck based on it with mystical elf.

They could make more more mystical elf card similar to the magician girls. One would special effects that prevent.You're appointed from using card effects or attacking you directly passing over your monster. They can also make upgrades to Celtic guardian, Like Celtic Knight or Celtic Captain. One elf for offense , one elf for defence.

How can I use the Bloody Celtic Guardian if I don't have the bloody Celtic Guardian?!

Not in the original manga he didn't.

@JediKnight5641 Ah, ok. Didn't realize the decks were different

@@scottmacaluso9102 I should clarify I mean he didn't use the Magnet Warriors. His final deck in the manga had Marshmallon, the Silent duo, Blockman, and Gandora. A lot things like Summoned Skull, Gaia, and many other classics were added in the anime.

That was anime filler. Yugi does actually defeat Marik with Fiend's Sanctuary in the manga.

@@kevinbell5674 how does that work?

@TheJoethud22 Nah, I was wrong, don't know what I was thinking. Yugi used Magical Dimension to destroy Ra. In the manga, one of its effects is that if you control 2 Spellcasters then you can destroy one monster your opponent controls, and then those 2 Spellcasters are sent to the GY. He used Magical Dimension to allow DM and DMG to destroy Ra. The anime does have Yugi use Magical Dimension, and uses it to tribute Obelisk and Gazelle to summon DM. I guess the anime is still using the manga's effect since that effect doesn't allow you to destroy a monster. So the only reason Ragnarok even exists is because the anime had Yugi use the wrong effect of Magical Dimension, or it was intentional because Magical Dimension wouldn't have been "cinematic" enough of a climax.

If Konami ever does another single player videogame the "Phantom Beasts" Gazelle was originally part of would make a great starter deck so they can skip the "level 2 beatdown" phase you always see at the beginning of those. It is just complex enough to be interesting for experienced players but not so complex to be intimidating for new players and does most of what a modern deck does at a basic level, limiting the learning curve needed for new players.

They are part of the arch fiend types too

If we get Toon Support, i hope it has cohesion with Relinquished as well would be a great way to tie the decks together, given Relinquished and Thousand Eyes Restrict are Pegasus’s boss monsters

@@leoultimaupgraded9914 Personally I want to see more like Toon BLS (& maybe a Toon Relinq eventually) that try to emulate the different summoning methods using main deck monsters. A lot of these Duel Monster-era reimaginings are fusion based so it makes sense to go there imo.

The other "Phantom Beasts" right?😅 Rock lizard Cross wing Thunder Pegasus Wild horn Etc

What... where is this information from?

Louise with Feral Imp and Griffore retrains into a new Horn of the Unicorn archetype or Louise tagging with Celtic Guardian into a vanilla warrior archetype (or both with Louise as the bridge piece) would be sick. Make it happen, Konami.

​@@jamaldavis2480 It's Japanese name is literally just Louise

@@SirAsdf TIL, I guess

Beaver Warrior is a girl! 😮

Ah yes, magnets, my favorite mythical stuff

@@LouX453 I figured that them and the gadgets are doing the “sci-fi” side of fantasy.

That's fair but there is already a character that claims the Archfiend archetype so it's a stretch to say it's Yugi's archetype instead of Titian's

​@@Straven93it's as much a stretch as other decks listed here Red-Eyes Grandpas exodia deck etc. Also he literally listed Summoned Skull as not having an archetype so it's a reasonable correction

Even still, he has SS and had REBD, and there are tons of support that blends those two together, so there should be a REBD/Summon Skull deck here too.

yeah but they existed before those two were even archfiends

@@blunk778 they were archfiends day 1 they just weren't translated properly. Plenty of early cards weren't dubbed properly into their archetypes because archetype synergy and support wasn't really a thing in the earliest days of the game. That doesn't make them any less part of the archetype. If you were to use that logic you could say any card that wasn't made with day 1 archetype support wasn't always a part of their own archetype but that doesn't make sense especially since a lot of them spawn around supporting one or two initial cards and building around them as is the case with the archfiends but the same is true for basically every card showcased in this video. You're argument hinges entirely on a solely Western and uninformed perspective it's entirely moot.

what's funny is that due to the wording of the card, Thunderspeed Summon I think its called, the face knights can also search and summon ra as well as slifer, including ra's sphere mode, what makes it even better, is that they do it on the turn of the opponent. The archetype also has a spell, trap and monster that can all recur on the end phase meaning you'll always have the 3 cards in hand for 3000 for slifer

This is something i actually was searching and found some that he used before the merging of deck

In a similar vein, I wish that Konami would make an Arkana Dark Magician deck. Maybe make it so that its magic cards only work on its version of DM (Darkening Magician?) and vanilla DM cards to prevent it from just being included in standard DM decks. Arkana has a line about designing his deck around taking Yugi's DM away from him, so maybe that could be its theme? You get your DM on the field and have to sacrifice it or your other cards to remove cards from your opponent? Maybe give the DM a recursion ability to bring it back from the graveyard if it's sacrificed to use its abilities? Maybe they can special summon themselves at the cost of some lifepoints like a built in Dark Magic Curtain?

Didn't the Silent archetype and Gandora get retrains + some support, quite recently? Plus, Yugi's DSOD deck fits him well too. Its basically all about defense and then counterattacking in huge bursts, with some OTK and tech options ,like the Gadgets thrown in there for good measure

​@filipvadas7602 I did really like his DSOD deck. Let me tell you seeing the cards HAVE THE DESCRIPTION of what the cards do in the film took me by complete surprise at first. Then I realized "oh yeah this is post the Manga not the dub"

I think this is kind of what the Shining Sarcophagus deck was meant to do. Excluding Dark Magician, they are exclusively cards Yugi used without Yami during Season 5. Though, I do wish the archetype was a little larger, since there is more material to pull from there, but that is probably just a me thing.

I remember as a kid I drew a Beaver Wizard

"No, it's a trap card!" "A house!"

Dark Magician, Summoned Skull, Gaia the Fierce Knight, and Buster Blader are all relate to the light and dark chaos magic theme according to their lores. Dark Magician is a dark type that has its light type alteration/predecessor Mahad, Summoned Skull has the fiend magic attribute that can summon lightning, Gaia the Fierce Knight is the pre-evolution of chaos soldier (Black Luster Soldier), Buster Blader has dark element and is the fusion comrade of the aforementioned dark magician as well as the Yin Yang counter relationship to the infamous light dragon (Blue Eyes White Dragon).

The best color

My headcannon is that it's Yugi's favorite color. The color of royalty, which would remind him of Atem after he left.

@@TOMMY716 faaaaaacts. That and blue. Stunning color combo.

Oh my gosh, you're gonna give everyone alcohol poisoning w/ that one. 😆

Welcome to the shadow game 😂

I think feel myself fading away into the shadow realm with every shot!!!

honestly Joey's deck was fun because it led to so much tension watching him play. You KNEW he had strategy he was freakin' taught by Yugi dammit. But...God he relied on luck way too much and I would sometimes end up yelling at the screen for it lol.

I hold deck design on a mucjh higher standard. Anime can't build a functioning deck without relying on ass pulls, plot Armor, and opponents playing badly. Also anime decks are always full of jank

@@soukenmarufwt5224 Seriously. The perfect example of this is Legacy of the Duelist. Jaden and Yuma use garbage decks.

​@@soukenmarufwt5224L design

Another average Pyro viewer I see lol

Kaiba has 205, minimum, attributed to him, with the affiliated archetypes being: •Blue Eyes •Union Machine •Virus Traps •Chaos Dragons •Vampire •Thunder Dragon •Obelisk the Tormentor Joey has roughly 148 cards to his name, with affiliated archetypes being: •Red-Eyes •Gearfried •Summoned Skull •Flame Swordsman •Goblins •Jinzo •Legendary Fisherman(Umi) •Fortress Whale(Umi) •Penguins •Battleguard •Fire Warrior Mai Valentine has 64 cards so far, split between Harpies and Amazons along with the other offshoots she played. Marik Ishtar has 55 cards to his name currently, but very little in terms of archetypal support outside of Ra. Bakura has roughly 59 cards to his name, including the most recent support. Surprisingly Bonz has at least 59 cards to his name, but this is more so due to the Wight deck and his focus on a more generic Zombie deck. Mako has 40 cards, again generic Umi and Water support along with offshoots. Weevil has roughly 55 cards to his name, he really loved his insect cards. Rex has barely 30 to his name directly, but it’s generic Dino so it’s definitely more. Tea has roughly 33 cards to her name, mostly Magician Girls. Though, through a major technicality with Seiyaryu, she can also have the Starry Knight deck.

And because I nearly forgot, Pegasus has 54 cards to his name, mostly Toons, honorary Toons, and Relinquished. The Paradox Brother have collectively 40 cards, though I’ll admit I may have missed at least 2.

Summoned skull had an archetype for itself (It's cool but it needs a lot of generic support because it's that bad), mystical is not a hyped monster (she only got a retrain to support blue eyes its not even good), big shield gardna is still waiting its retrain.

There is a youtuber named Custom Card Guy who did something like that its an archetype he made called Heart of the Cards
