EVERY Yu-Gi-Oh! Ace Card Explained In GX

[@silverthegrandkaiju]

I like to think that Neo's is Jaden's ace while out of the heroes, his absolute favorite is Flame wingman

[@TheJaredPunch]

Yeah. That’s how I see it too.

[@HunteryGo]

It does appear in favorite hero I think

[@PFSnypr]

thats literally true isnt it?

[@winterice2022]

True cuz in the beginning Jaden mostly had his flamewingman in season 1 till season 2 3 and 4 but that doesn't mean he stop using it cuz as jaden or judai said it himself his favorite hero

[@sandeepmahal-kp5em]

I wished Flame Wingman was Jaden ACE.

[@zervexon]

To make Jaden's Ace even harder, in the Manga, he didn't get Neos or the Neo-Spacians; it was originally Elemental HERO Terra Firma, and later he changed to the Masked HEROes.

[@Mr.Monacle]

To be fair, the manga for GX came out like 7 years after the anime did.

[@tyleradams6990]

​@@Mr.Monacleno way really? That's a first to me lol.

[@Mr.Monacle]

@tyleradams6990 Technically, I had misremembered. The manga *started* only about a year and change after the anime, but it ran until 2011, which is where I was probably pulling 7 years from. That said the manga was... kind of only written because the anime was a success which is still ass backwards most of the time. Personally, I can only think of 2 other shows that had that happen, and both had direct manga adaptations as opposed to a completely different story for the manga.

Well if you think about it,Ojama King is his Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon, a boss monster fused from his 3 normal Aces 😂😂😂

[@Vile-MKII]

Neos is Jaden's ace monster. Neos is not just a card Jaden created, but it also represents Jaden's adaptability and growth throughout the series. If you look at Neos's ability to fuse with the neospaceions as well as other cards, plus the support it has, it kind of mirrors Jaden's ability to adapt and change things up when he needs to during a duel. Hence why I firmly believe Neos is Jaden's ace card.

[@iamarabicandiloveamericanp7137]

[@redwardranger7034]

I'm a GX fanboy and the funny thing is those aces really represent Jaden. Those listed are all his aces, because his deck is a Fusion deck. Those cards listed are a fusion of all the aspects we came to adore about him.

[@overseerpjoe9477]

Both Flame Wingman and Neos both represent the two sides of Fusion. Neos is the single monster in the game that is listed as material for the most Fusion Monsters, plus his own flavour text says he performs his own unique form of Fusion. Flame Wingman, on the other hand, is a Fusion Monster himself, obviously representing the end result of a Fusion. Plus Flame Wingman has two counterparts of Phoenix Enforcer and Inferno Wing, who are the same ingredients but different outcomes. Honestly, the more you look at the two, the more parallels you can see between them.

[@cis22]

The summoning of Neos Wiseman in the anime is very interesting. Its fusion materials are Neos and Yubel. It was summoned using Super Polymerization. Winged Kuriboh was discarded to activate it. And Neos Wiseman's effect is an upgraded version of Flame Wingman's effect. Among Judai's cards that mean a lot to him, only Polymerization is not involved in that summon.

[@ked49]

Poly was there in spirit

[@jamiewalsh3349]

I consider it his ultimate monster not Divine Neos because of how much this card embodies Jaden. And it's strong as hell.

[@willropa4226]

If there's any consolation, Konami recognized that Neos and Flame Wingman were both competing for Jaden's ace seat and decided that they both win since we see the Wingmen and Neos appear in cards together like Favorite Contact, Double Hero Attack, and Elemental Hero Shining Neos Wingman.

[@StareachValcin]

I think that it's pretty clear that flame wingman is Jaden's favorite elemental hero, Yubel was once Jaden's favorite monster and currently has a strong connection to him, winged Kuriboh is Jaden's spirit partner that he also has a strong connection with, polymerization is a signature card that Jaden uses, and Elemental Hero Neos is the de facto Ace monster of his deck ever since he got him in his deck.

[@SowaraAkther1]

I personally don't see Yubel or Winged Kuriboh as ace cards but spirits who are always there to protect Jaden. He uses them to for either for changing the tide of a duel or protect himself from idk surriving a fall from a skyscrapper

[@slevinchannel7589]

My Ace is either Despair from the Dark or Raging Fire Spirit. I hope sooooo much they get a Retrain

[@barneypurple3435]

Jaden is so open-minded if he has this many Ace Cards.

[@TheJaredPunch]

Indeed. I guess the same can go for Yusaku too, but I see it as seeing his cards as tools to get the job done. The only cards where I don’t see Yusaku treating those cards that way are Firewall Dragon DarkFluid and Accesscode Talker.

[@GordieKat]

I think it's funny that as a child Jaden played a way more complicated strategy in Yubel before switching to the more kid friendly Elemental HERO deck as he got older.

[@TOMAAAAAAAAAAAA]

That's really damn unique, I'm glad to see you're trying out new things! If I can suggest, I'd love to see 5d's aces next!

[@TheReaperofHades]

I'd say Flame Wingman may be his favorite card, but considering Neos is the crux of Jaden's Deck, Neos is arguably his ace monster. Neos even appears in Bonds Beyond Time to defend him from Paradox.

[@nebbynetwork2089]

GX had some great ace monsters I do like how chazz dosent really like the ojama cards but he still uses them quite a bit imagine if he had his manga spirit light and darkness dragon

[@a-listgamer7873]

Yes.

[@isaackim810]

I think the easiest way to dictate which card is a character's ace card, is which card has the most support in their deck. In Jaden's case, Neos is the monsters with the most support in his deck, so it would be his ace monster.

[@Turbo77100]

Jaden definitely started the trend of main protags having the typical 2500 atk ace while still having one card the character identified as their true ace. The one monster that they can identify themselves with. Shining neos wingman would be the best testament to this concept.

[@psquared2020]

Jaden didn't do that. It was Yugi/Atem who started the trend of the protagonists having the 2500 atk ace monsters.

[@Turbo77100]

@@psquared2020 You missed my point. Yes, Yugi set the standard 2500 atk ace monster, but as I said in my comment, Jaden is the first to not only have the standard protag ace monster, but a de-facto "Favorite" ace monster he identifies himself with, i.e Flame Wingman.

[@ked49]

@@Turbo77100actually Joey started that,

[@nox1910]

I feel like you could argue that Aster's other ace monsters could be Elemental HERO Phoenix Enforcer or Destiny HERO Doomlord, since he makes a big deal of them in duels and dresses as them when he's doing his vigilante thing.

[@Mister100Percent]

Neos is Jaden's Ace Monster Flame Wingman is his favorite HERO Winged Kuriboh is his Spirit Partner Yubel is his previous incarnation's Soulmate And Polymerization is the glue that holds his deck together Also I always viewed Alexis's Cyber Girl as her ace, but yeah Etoile Cyber is pretty valid since Cyber Girl never did show up in Arc-V. Alexis always uses Etoille to make her boss monsters anyway.

[@ThePuff18]

I think the reason why Chazz is so sick is cuz of the Ojamas. Hes such an *edgy, mysterious, cool* guy, but then he loves his Ojamas. Actually, that’s probably why Manga Yuya is my favorite protag. He’s so his goofy guy, but then he’s got two other personalities in him that are just hardcore. And Yugo. God bless Yugo.

[@knockout8157]

Protect fusio- I mean yugo 😅

[@S6Photon]

Watching this it got me thinking, I am shocked they didn’t use super polymerization in the bonds beyond time movie, considering it takes place after Jayden and Yubel fuse. Would have been interesting to see.

[@LightningDaniels]

Giving the movie more time, I like the idea of Super Poly Neos with Sin Rainbow Draon for Rainbow Neos definitely would've been a cool thing to have done.

[@RAnDomMaN0394]

You can tell my guy is starting to lose his mind whenever he was trying to figure out Jaden's ace card by the strand of his bangs slowly separating from the rest of his hair LOL

[@hyperspacesushi]

I feel it's only fair to say Flame Wingman is Jaden's ace monster, considering the other protagonists of future parts each had their respective extra deck aces (Synchro, Xyz, Pendulum etc.), while Jaden's part is kinda /known/ for Fusion Summoning

[@batmenbeyont7775]

Cyber Dragon should be the ace as it's literally the key to Zane's deck working. Without it, his deck doesn't work. If you remove power bond, he can still fuse into any of his fusions using poly and boost the attack with limiter removal. Can also tribute cyber dragon for barrier and laser to play a different strategy.

[@victikirby15]

It’s interesting considering the difference between someone’s “ace” monster and their “boss” monster. Like, you would say that Cyber Dragon is Zane’s ace monster, since it’s the most iconic card in his deck and is the linchpin in his strategy. But his boss monster would be something like Cyber End Dragon, since that’s his strongest card and is the monster is deck is working towards summoning most of the time (at least until he gets the cyberdark stuff). It’s something I never really thought of before.

[@someteennamedcharles2035]

If Polymerization is Jaden's Ace because it's the card in all of his decks, then Mystical Space Typhoon is my ace card

[@jessyhardwick2421]

For some reason I just love the Neo Spacians. Air Hummingbird, while not necessarily an Ace, is arguably just as valuable as Flame Wingman or Neos, base on how much help he was when Judai was running low on LP.

[@PlutoDarknight]

I think for Adrian Gecko, the ace monster spot is tied between Exodius and Fog King. While Exodius is the immediate connection to the almighty Exodia his girlfriend sacrificed herself for, Fog King is a peculiar addition he made. It's a backup plan for when Exodius fails, it's an alternate win condition by just blowing your opponent up for 4000 damage with the sword and even after that it can still fuel his castle so he can sacrifice it to have another shot at assembling Exodia. Also, it's the one monster that managed to kill a fusion of the Sacred Beasts.

[@jadbayram496]

I would argue eye of the typhoon or nimbusman too

[@roninwarriorsfan]

You know, might as well list ace cards of a few Cardfight Vanguard G characters, since i did so in the comment section of the last video Chrono Shindou: Chronojet Dragon (adding G & Z as footnotes) Shion Kiba: Blue Sky Knight Altmile (and his upgraded forms) Tokoha Anjou: Renunculus Maiden Ahsha (and her upgraded forms) Taiyou Askawa: Golden Knight Gurguit (and his upgraded form) Kazuma Shouji: Dragheart Luard

If it existed back then, Judai’s (Jaden) ace monster would 100% be Shining Neos Wingman.

[@CobaltGale]

I get the feeling Blair's ace monster was Maiden in Love. Then again, that's...kinda the only fight of hers I ever saw. I heard she shows up in future seasons, but I dont know if she played any other decks.

[@Wolfboss7]

While I think both Neos and Flame Wingman could individual count as Jaden’s ace monsters (or his ace and favorite), both have an interesting dynamic with someone else’s ace. I fully agree that Aster’s ace is Destiny Hero Plasma, and it’s essentially an extremely dark version of Flame Wingman design-wise, and even thematically. Flame Wingman is a fusion of two monsters while Plasma is a single monster that forcefully absorbs other monsters to feed on their power. This also makes Plasma’s a dark foil to Neos too, who willing fuses with his fellow Neo Spacians. It’s another cool way to show how characters contrast each other.

[@OjamaYellow]

06:04 for Alexis I'd say her ace cards are "Cyber Tutu" and "Double Passé"

[@kraviel9961]

Jaden doesn't have an ace monster, he has a whole ace mechanic: Fusion summoning

[@knockout8157]

2:15 Gotta love how Yuma is the only one who isn’t flipping us off 😅

[@lordofninjas1]

I'd make the argument that Jaden has 2 aces, Flame Wingman is his Elemental Hero ace and Neos is his Neo Space ace. Basically, because he runs 2 different archetypes he has 2 different aces. I would probably just drink straight hot sauce like that. Also, it's changed to hot sauce in the dub to play off the term "sauced" which is a slang term meaning drunk. Besides that though, if it wasn't hot sauce they'd probably change it to some kind of juice or something like they did with Pegasus's wine in the dub where they essentially made it orange juice, but that doesn't play with the joke, so they made it hot sauce instead. I could see an argument for Syrus's ace being like Steam Gyroid, at least in the early seasons he would always bring that card out. I could also see Chumley's ace being Master of Oz, though I can see that you probably are saving that for the boss monster video. Also also, while not an important character in the anime at all, I'd give honorable mention to the Mokey Mokey guy.

[@Netherwolf6100]

For me, the Ace or Signature is the card the duelist most relies upon and actively uses the most, not their favorite. For me, there's the spirit monster, the favorite, the signature/ace, and the boss/trump card. Each of these are different.

[@GoldPrince2468]

Keeper of the Shrine is definitely my Spirit. No matter what dragon deck I try to use, he gives me enough padding to turn my brick into a fortress. Assuming I have him early enough, he supports my strong dragons as a double tribute or material for my extra deck. And whenever my dragons fall, he picks me back up. I can’t imagine running a dragon deck without him.

[@Zenn_Chan]

I would argue that Yubel is more like a boss monster. Her card effect is so powerful, she definitely deserves that position.

[@itachi_uchiha93]

The card my friend would be able to tell its me is either yubel yubel-terror Incarnate yubel-ultamate Nightmare because yubel is one of my well-known Ace cards or cyber dragon cyber end dragon and power bond i hold those cards clear and dear to my heart it helped me throughout hard times

[@jrmbbr]

Neos is my favorite Yugioh monster ever. My only issue with him is that I wish he himself is a fusion monster rather than a normal card. It always feels off seeing all the ace monsters and Neos is the only one that doesn't represent the summoning mechanic of his series, despite his ability to contact fuse. Also, I like to think that Flame Wingman fills the same role as Yusei's Junk Warrior or Yugi's Dark Magician Girl, where they're the protagonist's second-in-command and aren't restricted with a certain attack point level.

[@Varindran]

Speaking of Flame Wingman i'm happy he got a amazing retrain to fit into up to date hero decks. Same with the new yubel cards too. I hope they are also good.

[@TheMeetymeet]

I honestly think Alexis' ace is Dakini when she gets really serious, but overall most of them are pretty accurate. I'm definitely going for Flame Wingman for Jaden because in the recent new set of Phantom Nightmare, Yunel has a new Fusion that without a doubt resembles Flame Wingman probably to why it's Jaden's favorite.

[@andresl2596]

I think Hasselberry's ace would be Black Tyranno (he even turns into it in the Sartorius' arc) and his boss would be Ultimate Tyranno because I think he used it more than the Super Conductor Tyranno.

[@joelussagnet1486]

Deal 300 damge to your opponent when they put a card face-down in there spell/trap zone

[@Thoast_]

I still prefer flame wingman being Jadens ace, either that or terra firma from the manga, because then the trend of every yugioh characters ace being of the new/focused summoning type of their era, a normal monster for yugi, a fusion monster for jaden, a syncro monster for Yusei, xyz for Yuma, pendulum for Yuya and link for playmaker.

[@aliastheabnormal]

[@DannyZucko21]

Neos does in a way still tie into that concept because of contact fusion.

[@Yardnoc3103]

When I think Ace I think "the card that most likely will turn the duel around." Which for Jaden is Neos and/or Polymerization.

[@lilsunny7399]

There's a couple i don't agree with 1. Aster's should be Destiny HERO - Dreadmaster He summoned it in most of his duels, it was the card that beat Jaden and i'd say Dogma and Plasma (as well as Dragoon) are more like bosses 2.I'd say Sheppard's ace would be Cyber Ogre, the original and Cyber Ogre 2 is his boss/ 3. I'd actually argue for Amnael it's either Chaos Distil or Macro Cosmos, as both Helios Tris Megistus and Golden Homunculus are bosses who rely on cards being banished.

[@luffydagoatYT]

To add another wrinkle to Jaden, Terra Firma was his Signature Card in the manga and has the same atk and def as Neos!!

[@Kiryuu-kun]

Hi I'm Ryuu and i want to contribute some of my idea. I think cards like Polymerization, Super Poly or Power Bond shouldn't class as ACE cards. Should be more like their signature card, also i think about this for a while but there could be a main character's side ace cards archetype. So what do I mean by this, its could be something like their weaker but also reliable fight along/side by side with their ACE or for Judai/Jaden situation.. his favorite something like Gaia the Fierce Knight, Elemental HERO Flame Wingman, Junk Warrior, Gagaga Cowboy (?), Perormapal Laugh Maker (?), Decode Talker (i believe Firewall meant to be Yusaku ACE but it's got banned)

[@manuelzapata3400]

[@darknessking2859]

To me I think an Ace card is more attributed to their most important card In there deck. A key component to their deck and act as there were most reliable card in the deck. For example when Jaden gets neos his coerced strategy shifts around getting Neos onto the field whether to use NEOS as an attacking monster or to fuse him with a different monster.

We can also recognize that you can tell the ace monsters in certain moments where the character wouldn't fuse their ace with anything but would double or triple their attack to make them the pinnacle of the showcase. Showing that the will and beginning of the ace is so much stronger than the enemy and then win.

[@OmnicidalClown1992]

3:49 And there were at least two other Duel Monster Spirits that had his own card as his Ace Monster. And those were Jinzo and Don Zaloog. In one of the episodes of Yu-Gi-Oh GX, Jaden had to duel a Jinzo that attempted to enter the real world. And later on, during the Dark Riders Arc, one of the members was Don Zaloog. He dueled Chazz using a Dark Scorpion deck, with his Ace Monster being himself. I'm sure that there were other Duel Monster Spirits that did have their own card as their Ace Monster, but those are the two that came to mind. (And yes, I wrote this comment before Don Zaoog was mentioned, so here's the time where he was mentioned; 17:55. That being said, I still say that Don Zaloog's ace is Don Zaloog.

Kinda surprised you didn't also bring up the manga as well, because a lot of characters had a lot of unique cards in it. There Jaden's ace starts off as Elemental Hero Terra Firma that he was gifted along with Winged Kuriboh by a champion duelist that wasn't Yugi if I remember right, and it also followed the whole 2500 attack theme for main characters. I've heard he later changed to a new set of hero monsters called Masked Heroes but I never read that far. As for other characters, Chazz had this dragon that was light and dark themed, I believe Alexis used ice monsters, and I have this vague memory Bastion with fire monsters.

[@sebastianwiggins2880]

Hey TGS, great vid I want to ask soo an 15:29-19:02 music background I like how it sounds what’s the name of the music background?

[@meganmartin3373]

- I would argue that Alexis's ace is actually the trap card Doble Passe. She used it in more of her duels compared to Etoile Cyber, it's this card specifically that impressed Jaden in their first duel (and gets called back to in her last onscreen duel), and it's the card she keeps with her when she's trapped in the World of Darkness. - Sheppard's ace is probably Cyber Ogre. It's a bit hard to tell for sure since we only see him duel about three times over the course of the show, but he does use Cyber Ogre in all three of those duels, while he only uses Cyber Ogre 2 once. Tellingly, in his only major dueling appearance, it's actually his _opponent,_ Zane, who summons Cyber Ogre 2, not Sheppard himself. - Honestly, Illusion Gate seems more like Camula's boss than her ace. Like, yeah, it's the iconic card forever associated with her, but it's also her strongest card by a long shot. If I had to name an ace for her, I'd be more inclined to go with Vampire Genesis, which she actually used in more duels than Illusion Gate. - In a similar vein, the true Darkness's ace cards are its Zero and Infinity traps, but I would also say that the fragment of Darkness that possesses Atticus has its own separate ace card in Red-Eyes Darkness Dragon. - You forgot Blair. But then, the show also forgot Blair, so I can't really blame you. And also, it's... pretty hard to pin down an ace for Blair? Not only does she use entirely different decks in every one of her onscreen duels, I get the impression that she also uses entirely different decks across all of her video game appearances, too. She's like a more extreme version of Bastion... Or maybe even, dare I say, the opposite extreme of Jaden (Jaden's ace is unclear because he has so many potential aces that can all be argued in some way or another; Blair's ace is unclear because she never sticks with anything).

[@supremeking6694]

In my opinion, if you are going to do a GX manga video like this, there should be an honorable mention about Elemental Hero Sunrise for Jaden Yuki. There are a lot of things that could support my headcannon: The pose of the card similar to the one Jaden does when he says “That’s Game”; Having 2500 ATK ; having the same color as the Slider Red jacket; being a Fusion Monster; the name “Sunrise” being a reference to the way Jaden was called as a “Rising Sun” or something like that.

Ace card of Zane was Cyber End Dragon.... his whole strategy revolved around it, it was passed on to him by Shepard, it was the card that symbolized wtvr the way of Shepards dueling was and it was the last thing he looked upon in his duel against Yubel... Power bond and Cyber Dragons were tools to bring him out. Hell the way they symbolized Zane going dark or wtvr was him turning his back on CED.. we had a whole episode where his connection toa the end dragon was explained... Considering he is your fav character its really weird that you miss this by this much.

[@ΑΡΙΣΤΟΤΕΛΗΣΛΑΧΑΝΟΠΟΥΛΟΣ]

You can argue for Polymerization for Jaden, Super Polymerization for Supreme King, Clear World for Fujiwara, Darkness for Nightshroud, Power Bond for Cyrus and Zane, lots of highlighted Spell Cards

"Infernoid Tierra... is Marcelo's card. He must have been kidnapped!"

0:40 Jaden Yuki's nuevo monstruo es Elemental Hero Flame Winged Neos

I never thought of the "hot sauce" before

Jaiden: The Kuribohs are mascot monsters. Flame Winged Man was definitely his ace and got sidelined by Neos. Jesse: Carbuncle is his mascot, the MLP card for his ace.

The aces of major characters in my opinion, in no particular order: Jaden: Flame Wingman -> Neos Syrus: Steam Gyroid (it's the card I always think of when I think of Syrus) -> Power Bond Chumley: Either Des Koala or Master of Oz (which is a symbol of his, Jaden's, and Syrus' friendship) Chazz: Cthonian Solder -> The Ojama Trio, with Yellow as the leader. Alexis: Cyber Tutu/Double Passe (which I think she uses in every duel, but if not, it's still the only thing I can think of that she uses consistently) Zane: Cyber End Dragon (because he shared a special bond with it, according to Shepherd) -> Cyberdark Dragon Yusuke: Honest or Clear World (depending on if he's good or evil at the time) Shepherd: Cyber Ogre Atticus: Red-Eyes Black Dragon Aster: Plasma Crowler: Ancient Gear Golem Bonaparte: Toy Emperor Banner: Chaos Distill/Macro Cosmos O-Brien: Blaze Accelerator Hassleberry: Black Tyranno (I actually forgot he had Super Conductor in his deck) Jim: Fossil Fusion Adrian: Exodius or Exodia (he used Exodius in the duel, but it was to gain the power of Exodia) Jesse: Ruby Carbuncle (since he often uses it for his endgame play after getting a bunch of crystals in the spell/trap zone) Sartorius: Either The World (as the ace of the major arcana) or The Light/Dark Rulers (as the representation of himself in each state of mind) Blair: Maiden in Love and for the most difficult for me, to the point where I actually pulled up the wiki just to find some common thread: Bastion: White Magician Pikeru (since it's the only non-generic card shared between basically all of his decks. No, really)

Destiny Hero Plasma was ahead of its time compared to the other GX ace monsters and better than them, yet they treated it like nothing and made Aster lose to every opponent he had a full length duel with after he got it. They did them so dirty. 😭

I play a Hero deck on MD. Now, if you drop Plasma... *Oh boy.* It's a game winner.

Hey! What is the song you used in the background during jadens section? I love it!

If a card fell out of my deck if I got kidnapped and my friends found it they’d be like ‘oh lovely lab? Ew good riddance’

[@marcosantonio-hj7vp]

2:15 by this image Jaden was supposed to use a fusion monster as his Ace.
