"EVERY Yu-Gi-Oh! Ace Card Explained In 5D's" | Kip Reacts to TGS Anime

[@dannysmi7162]

Kip, if you watch 5D’s, make sure to watch the Japanese version with English subtitles because there are a lot of episodes that weren’t dubbed in English. I mean, I guess you could watch it just for the “dub experience” but you really need to watch the sub to get the full story. Not to mention, they change a lot of things, but that’s obvious.

[@MIC132MIC]

Plus the dub version literally cuts out the whole last arc.

The "Crow originally being secretly a villain" idea kind of makes sense, even if it was only an early concept that got scrapped. The reason I believe it is because "Blackwing Armor Master" has the same design Earth-Bound Immortals do. So I could've seen the bare bones minimum was the design for the three of Yusei, Jack, and Crow before changing it after coming up with the reason the group split having been the 4th member of their group that everyone had thought died. I can even see the process of changing Crow from being the leader to Rex because an adult in a high position would make more sense as a leader over a teen from the slums despite Keeping the big boss's Immortal as the Winged Beast version.

about Dark Synchro, they kinda did make it, the Usarctic archetype basically does Dark Synchro where its subtraction rather than addition

[@FriendlyArchpriest]

I finally started the Orichalcos Arc in the Duel Monsters anime... How can such a good arc be filler? It's anime canon, not filler, I love all that Cosmic, Extraplanar, and Ancient Magitech Stuff...

[@hyperdreamer9483]

Arcana Force can designate their coin flips, it’s called Light Barrier

Yeah, the Dark Signer Crow thing was a combination of 5D's conspiracy theories and people taking fanart too seriously. The fanart of Dark Signer Crow that TGS showed was actually one of the pieces of "evidence" used by the "Dark Signer Crow was real" side due to one of that tags on it roughly translating to "it was one of the early ideas"; closer inspection of the page (like the description) makes it more likely the tag was meant to be taken as "this was where I thought the plot was going". The concept art we do have from the "Duel Art" artbook does indicate that Crow's character direction did change, but his original idea was being Yusei's hot-blooded friend who tried to steal his duel runner in the past. There were also those who believed Crow's character direction was changed to sell Blackwings. Thing is that the timeline doesn't match up. Blackwings only had four cards when Crow debuted, and by the time they became meta, the episode where Crow placed himself firmly on the heroes' side would have already been in the middle of production. Not to mention that the anime tends to underutilize cards that end up being meta by having their owners either not duel much, lose a lot, or swap to a different deck entirely; Crow being one of the two exceptions to this trend.

He wasn't meant to be the 5th signer tho

[@FriendlyArchpriest]

I haven't finished the video, but when Kip mentioned Yugi, I wonder how big Yugi's fusion deck is, because he seems to be able to fuse everything and anything with Dark Magician and fusing Dark Magician fusions with other monsters, but I feel like most of those were made up in the spot, since the cards made after them seem really bad and improvised from my poor understanding.

[@TitaniumKoopa]

"When are we getting Dark Synchro?" We DID get Dark Synchro with Ursarctic's & they are TRASH.

[@traigongames]

Hundred Eyes Dragon is the actual dark synchro they just made it a regular synchro monster with the dark attribute to make it easier to summon since they can't actually do the negative stars

[@TitaniumKoopa]

@@traigongames Dark Synchros as in the mechanic where its Synchro Summoning but subtraction instead of addition.

[@traigongames]

No as Mathematics already took that mechanic and Ursarctic's use the opponent card face down effects Dark Synchros had nothing really going for them other than having negative stars and their effects and their cards being slightly darker than regular synchro monsters and Konami wasn't going to spend money on that so they just made them regular synchro monsters

[@TitaniumKoopa]

@@traigongames No Mathmech have regular Synchros, Ursarctic SPECIFICALLY have Synchros that say "Must be Special Summoned (from your Extra Deck) by sending 2 monsters you control with a Level difference of 1 to the GY (1 Tuner and 1 non-Tuner).", AKA Dark Synchroing. Konami just doesn't want to deal with how Negative level monsters work just like Attributeless monsters with Clear World, even though that's the whole point.

[@traigongames]

@@TitaniumKoopa that's not what I'm talking about at all and neither was Kip he meant the actual Dark Synchro monsters which do exist just as regular synchro monsters

[@RedDragonForce2]

@ 8:15 I love Evil Heroes too! And I even made two monsters based on their Elemental Counterparts. Evil HERO Shadow Infernal Wing Fusion Attribute: DARK Type: Fiend Level: 8 Atk: 2500 Def: 2100 Materials: Evil HERO Infernal Wing + “Evil HERO” Monster Effect1: This card gains 300 Atk for every “HERO” monster in either GY. Effect2: This card can inflict Piercing Damage. Effect3: If a monster this Card destroys by battle is sent to the GY, inflict damage equal to the destroyed Monster’s Atk or Def, whichever is higher. ___________________ Evil HERO Abyss Hurricane Fusion Attribute: DARK Type: Fiend Level: 8 Atk: 2800 Def: 2800 Materials: Avian, Bubbleman, and Sparkman Effect1: If this card is Fusion Summoned, destroy one card on the field. Effect2: So long as you control a Spell/Trap card, this card cannot be destroyed by battle or card effect. Thoughts?

[@Remnant-Star76]

If you think about it. Yusei is basically Yu-Gi-Oh's Superman. Think about it. As a baby, his father who was a brilliant scientist, put him in an escape pod so he could escape the destruction of his home. Then he goes on to have Good morals to do the right thing and save others. He even has that red symbol thing on his shirt on his chest. Another one is that while Superman is a Moses allegory, people put him in a Jesus one and his Stardust Dragon is a Jesus Dragon. Sacrificing itself to protect others then after an amount of time, will rise from the grave and return.

[@lefteron6804]

Now we will both surely drown, said the frog. Lol, said the scorpion, lmao.

[@KipReacts]

Lmao

[@arminwraith7356]

Me, using a Black Rose/Ruddy Rose Dragon deck IRL. God, Roxrose Dragon is SO nice to have.

[@numberhunter62]

People play Pot of Neg 9, so yeah, Pot of Greed a generic free +1 with no drawbacks would definitely see play. Nowadays it's not an absolute staple in every deck but a lot of decks would be fine running it.

[@Mrryn]

I will go so far as to say that Pot of Greed would see play in literally every deck, same for Graceful Charity. Decks will run one to three copies of Triple Tactics Talent raw, just for the draw two if their combo is interrupted. Having a generic free +1, no strings attached, is just too much value.

[@salara2748]

Can you react to the top 10 yugioh overkill moments. One of my favorite videos of his.

[@traigongames]

Hundred Eyes Dragon is the Dark Synchro they just made it easier to summon by giving it the dark Attribute since they can't actually do the negative stars

[@jonmcknight18]

Yeah 5ds is probably the darkest yugioh seasons I mean the dark signers where a group of character who all died and where brought back to life.

[@whatthefilmwtf7171]

Am old enough to remember when it started airing

[@whatthefilmwtf7171]

Wasn't blue eyes white dragon really famous in the show

[@codyhunt5916]

Second coin toss: am I a joke to you?

[@whatthefilmwtf7171]

I used to love this show

[@lefteron6804]

If you want a better deck based on the arcana cards there is spell book of prophecy.

[@KipReacts]

Prophecy is still kinda spendy. It's not OG Teledad levels of spendy, but High Priestess copies will still cost you a bit. *Looks at my Bystial Lubellion and other tech I've bought for Branded, thus being a hypocrite*

[@lefteron6804]

Ancient fairy dragon was eratated.

[@KipReacts]

I completely forgot about it. It aged super well to the point of being ban-worthy.
