Blue Eyes White Dragon is only actually "white" like 12% of the time.

The one you ranked at #5 is my personal favorite. Love how majestic it looks perched on top of a skyscraper.

Honestly the starter deck is soo true the nostalgia seeing blue eyes on the front cover of the box and just how majestic the image is it's everything blue eyes is and should be

Nothing will ever top the OG Blue-eyes artwork.

I had the starter deck blue eyes as a kid, wish I looked after my cards. Didn't know of things like sleeves

Whaaaaaaat? The Blue-Eyes with the Earth is my second favorite:

Whaaaat the lowest one is my favourite xD

Love how the background for the planet and tablet art is what decided the rank when it's the same pic for Blue-Eyes itself and was just copy past for the tablet version >w

My favorite is the jump promo. It's absolutely beautiful and I love the design choices made with it.

The OG artwork is my favorite hands down. This is also the Blue-Eyes that I send out to my buddies from over the years

Didn't rank all of them technically. There's an OCG exclusive art that has Kaiba from DSOD in the artwork

More videos like this, with other cards like dark magician

The Tablet artwork is my favorite one

Gotta be the dimension one for me, he's actually white, and of you have the gold one from the movie its actually crazy how good it shines.

I am so sick of the Tablet Blue-Eyes. The art is so mediocre. I hate that Konami keeps using it for all the games like in MD. Please. Just give us the OG art... I am begging you.

Personally I like DSOTD artwork its just Majestic more then it could get.

I prefer dsod artwork personally As it's more accurate to its name of "blue eyes" and white dragon

Blue Eyes on the tower is still my favorite. One of these days, I hope to snag one

OG arts need a come back for real, Blue-Eyes, Red-Eyes, Dark Magician

OG SDK-001 blue eyes with the ultra rare foil mmh it looks so clean.

I actually had that #8 card. I was so disappointed when I realized they changed the OG artwork on it.

Shonen Jump promo is definitely my favorite it just looks awesome I would love to have a place that but they are like $80 last I checked

His statement on #1 was an absolute fact. You can guess what my starter deck was.

funny enough in yugioh lore.. the blue eyes white dragon is able to travel into space.

you forgot blue eyes’s anniversary art where she’s being summoned by kaiba

The og one is the best and nobody can say anything about it. If it looks like one of those old 2009 cards that are darker than todays cards that’s even better

Nice ranking! DSOD is my favorite!

The artwork for SDK Blue Eyes made me get my parents to buy me the deck, and from there it was history.

I really like the Blue-Eyes in front of earth. In fact, it is my favorite artwork.

The original will always be the best! Gives me chills from nostalgia every time I see it!!!

I've never even seen some of these Blue Eyes artworks

Number 5 I always imagined Blue Eyes standing atop of Alcatraz from Battle City.

The earthglobe is one of my absolute favourites. Was it a promo? It was only available as usch in sweden when I was a kid atleast. Felt so special for having it.

Dumber 5 and 3 are really elevated by the background not being a random photoshop filter. Roaring on top of a tower or flying through the night sky instead of posing in a void looks much cooler.

The Legend of Blue Eyes art is 11/10, will always be my favourite art.

3rd ranking one looks really well done. It even shows how translucent its wings are by having the background light shining through.

Honestly the one in #5 is one of my favorite artworks when you realize that is a Kiba Corp tower

This is like, almost exactly the reverse order of how I rank them lol

The DSOD version is the best. The OG version always looked strange to me. Blue eyes looks great on the tablet version, but the dumb tablet stinks it up.

The og Yu-Gi-Oh season one Blue-Eyes will forever be up there for card art design

Fun Fact: The original Blue Eyes white dragon art pre-dates the actual card game. As Konami’s first Yu-Gi-Oh video game was Capsule Monsters when Season 0 was airing. This game was a Japan only release but it came with some Cards that weren’t official, since at the time, Konami didn’t own the Card Game. But one of them was the Blue Eyes white dragon, and after Konami launched their Card Game, they kept the artwork and even convinced Studio Gallop to use it in the anime.

The Blue eyes in Space is a reference to the Episode where the Dragon destroyed the satellitecanon and his way to evolve to galaxyeyes.

The wing in the background always makes the original blue eyes seem like it has a gigantic head

I’ll always remember the Christmas I got a Kaiba starter deck and Legend of Blue Eyes tin. Came away with two BEWDs and a Left Leg of Exodia (unfortunately never found any other pieces). Good times.

You missed the best one. The OCG exclusive that has Kaiba on it and features a KaibaCorp logo foiling

The problem I notice with a lot of ygo cards is that they tend to have a monster with the same background color... Blue on blue, etc.. The better artwork lets you see the monster properly imo

I had a Blue Eyes deck back in the day, still miss it from time to time.

Technically there is a 9th blue eyes artwork based on Kazuki Takahashis drawing he did for the Jump Ryu Magazin and the card is included in it. Brilliant illustration with both Kaiba and the Blue Eyes on it.

i just ordered the manga art blue eyes bc it’s so freakin adorable looking and needed to have it. the only one i think i’m missing is the one where he’s on top of the skyscraper

From a nostalgia standpoint I agree with the original. But from a design/art perspective I like #2-3 a lot more. And I like the galaxy background on the #3 actually. Even if it’s “odd” it looks stunning regardless

I wish it was more consistent between the different cards. Some have more spikes, some have more body segment things, it’s almost like looking at different species of Blue-Eyes

Tablet Blue Eyes should be last place

#7 was also a Jump promo, I think vol 1 of the US monthly release

If I remember correctly, #7 was a jump promo originally as well

Since I love cyberpunk aesthetics and the bike has an Akira-esque shape, I:P Masquaerena alt art is my fav of any of the alt arts

The one on the castle is my favorite cuz it resizes it to be a dragon that hangs around a castle. And like i imagine the dark magician or the dark sags living in that thing worrying about the absolutely fucking huge dragon above him.

Blue Eyes looking like a kaiju on top of that skyscraper. Loving it

I like the blue eyes in space, its a good reference to when kaiba faced lector and it attacked its satellite cannon.

For some reason to me he comes off as the cool nerdy guy and I like it lol

Had to put the OG at #1 for sure. Just remembering seeing that for the first time at toys r us as a kid. Legendary

I’m glad you made the dsod Blue Eyes White Dragon #2 cause it’s my second favorite and the original one from the anime is my #1 favorite

I never knew where that first JUMP promo blue eyes was from until just now. My mom came home one day and handed it to me 21 years ago. I thought it was cool as hell, but a kid I went to daycare with asked to see it, them immediately ran into the bathroom and claimed he flushed it down the toilet (he kept it). I always had the mental image of the blue eyes shooting the beam, but never saw it again when I tried looking for it. Larry hitting me with even more cringe nostalgia as I flash back to every time my cards got stolen and how every time it happened, it was the ones worth money or sentiment. All my Master Collection 1 and 2 cards stolen from my backpack in 3rd grade... *sighs in bad childhood decision-making skills*

I wonder what has become of my old blues eyes cards. I had them in 2002 and when I got a bit older I gave my deck to my neighbor. Now that they’re worth thousands I regret my decision 😩

Solid list, I’d personally move some around but that’s why these lists are fun. Yeah I never really noticed that about the planet artwork, Blue eyes being bigger now stands out to me (I love it still)

That og blue eyes is just fun to stare at that and og dark magician or Neos og red eyes summoned skull too

Used to think the OG art works wing was part of it's head when I was a kid.

The OG artwork had that mystical feel to it. The designs aren't over the top and it's like something you find in a ancient textbook.

Thanks for doing this vid man

I’m still waiting for DM to get his Arcana artwork in master duel 😭

I had the one with the tablet artwork. Was always my most fav design but also agree with the OG

I agree with #1, but #8 and #6 should've been #2 and #3 imo. I love the second art design and I love the new manga art design. The new Manga art one especially since it combines what I love about the og art and the second art. I feel like the new manga art print is the true third Blue Eyes print we all deserve and should've had instead of those other two with the planet and tablet backgrounds. The rest, including the two third prints I just mentioned, though they do look cool, just feel like a fan made them at times. Don't know what it is or why. I just love the og print, second print, and new manga art print more. The classic Blue Eyes charm is powerful and quite strong within all three of those prints imo. Blue Eyes actually looks like the Blue Eyes I know and love in those prints.

Legend of Blue Eyes was my first one so there’s a nostalgic connection for me. But I think the DSOD artwork is excellent and should’ve been used for master duel IMO

I remember liking the yugi deck more because it has summoned skull that only needed one sacrifice, and the dark sword thing that made its attack 3200....im probably remembering it wrong but oh well

Kinda relieved, incase you can't tell I'm abit of a fan of the OG Kaiba deck artwork. Have it tattooed across my arm as my first tattoo and everything 😅

6 is growing on me, i may need 1 or 3 for the collection

the number 2 should be number 1. It is a beautiful artwork that oozes majesty. Truly beautiful and im glad I own a copy

The Blue Eyes White Dragon with the earth behind it is my favorite Edit: it was also a jump promo when I was in middle school...

It's pure nostalgia that keeps Starter Deck Kaiba Blue-Eyes at number one for me. Without it, Dark Side of Dimensions is my number one. Honestly, this list is pretty much 1:1 to how I would rank them.

The blue eyes white dragon is my favorite dragon monster card especially the number one you ranked your first and second one I have multiple copies of the last two Blue eyes white dragons.

it took me too long to unsee that the blue eye from kaiba's deck doesn't have a glow over the head......because it's just a wing

I was in a Hotel in Hawaii and i found a psa 9 Blue eyes white dragon on the floor lol. It was #4

Personally, I have always liked the Legend of blue eyes art the best. It just has kind of grown on me.

The OG starter deck Kaiba artwork is the only artwork I’ll play with in my blue eyes decks lol. Same with the OG Dark Magician from Yugi’s deck. I’m okay with the LOB artwork and most of the others but I gotta have that Kaiba deck look if I’m playing the deck lol

I dont know how you can say any one of them is the best other than the skyscraper variant. Majestic and beautiful as hell. The cosmic art is also very good.

I really love the OG and DSOD artwork and while I have a playset of both artworks, my playset of the DSOD artwork consist of 1 ultra and 2 gold secret rares and I wish I had 3 ultra rares

OG is the best for sure, I'm glad you put that first.

7th rank Blue Eyes version reminds me of the 2 part Settling the score episode. I have that version of Blue Eyes

I agree with the original card art being number 1 I have three of them and limited editions to😊

Forgot the one with kaiba in it

Even though so many blue eyes cards are cool looking you just can't beat the original it just has that classic feel like you just unpack a really rare card feel

I had number 1 when I was a kid still got all my cards in a box somewhere

#5 is drawn by Takahashi and deserves a higher place.

I also had 3 x of the #1 artwork cards. Can’t beat those.

Put of all three started decks from yugioh I liked red eyes the most looks so cool

Also in the dark side of dimensions one he is actually a white dragon with blue eyes

You need to talk about the Baseball art of Blue Eyes

Ive never been a fan of blue eyes head design but overall it's cool it's like smooth head has always looked weird to me

#8 makes him look like what his text box says, number one makes him look small in his artwork

I think the YAP1 (moon artwork) blues if my fav bc I personally think it looks rlly good in my opinion

I've been a fan of Yu-Gi-Oh since the anime first dropped on Kids WB and I personally prefer the DSOD card art over the starter deck Kaiba art.
