I love Aster. He's super skilled as a duelist, I love his archetype, and his trashtalk in the dub was incredibly obnoxious, in a good way.

[@azfarabdullah9638]

His taunt lines in duel links were nerfed to oblivion it doesn't feel like you're playing as Aster.

There's also D-Hero Dogma which was used in a Magical Explosion FTK variant.

[@justinjian7077]

7:12 funnily enough, the only time Aster used Terraforming was for the cost effect of Magical Stone Excavation that he had sent to the graveyard during his previous turn off of Diamond Dude's effect. Aster never actually used Terraforming to search Clock Tower Prison in the anime

[@arki4433]

Well, it was still in his deck and he must have used it sometimes (offscreen maybe)

[@iananderson4754]

I like how he still paid the cost even though he didnt have to with diamond dude.

[@Cortanarama]

His cards while not always great are some of the coolest designed for sure.

[@RanserSSF4]

I don't get the re-upload, but there's one thing I should mention about Magical Stone Excavation. It's not a Aster Phoenix exclusive card. It was first used by Yami Marik in the dueling monsters anime. It had a different name back than, but the effect was the same. It wasn't used again till Aster Phoenix came in during the GX anime.

[@orlandotill]

Mining for Magical Stones

[@talonghirem3899]

Talk about the cards that Yubel used, both on their own and when with Jaden. Yubel didnt use many cards but some of them were banned for being too cheesy which is interesting

[@SamHintz]

There was a guy in GX who had a tennis themed deck that I’m mostly sure is not real in the TCG. Take a took at his cards because I remember them being completely busted.

[@Emeraldtheblackdavid]

Don't forget aster was in arc v anime too and the fusions he played are played in modern hero's to this day

[@tuilleri]

Why is that

[@BlazingRaptor]

I remember running beginning of the end as a fun option for a draw 3 with ddude. Soul charge was even nuttier with his effect, though at that point he was already a bit slow.

[@kitakizeinko8780]

I love aster and his destiny heroes, hopefully he gets more support like jaiden and kaiba does! Dystopia is a very good monster

[@raina1848]

How long has it even been since they made new destiny hero support? Like, two years? And it took forever for them to release his vision heroes from the manga into the tcg, too, and they still only have two fusions. And duel links is dragging their feet again now, too. It's so unfair how they play favorites with some characters over others.

[@kitakizeinko8780]

@@raina1848 exactly bro, destiny heroes were so good when they first showed up, aster was one of the few to give jaiden a hard time, he beat Zane truesdale(made him had doubts about himself) he almost beat sartorius, but the plot didn't allow it, it was suppose to he jaiden! A characterike that is suppose to get constant support for his archetype!

[@raina1848]

@@kitakizeinko8780 And then they made it so that just about anybody could defeat him, leading up to the disaster that was Arc-V. It was a disgrace. Aster should have been more of a rival and explored more as a character. He is such an interesting and underrated character.

[@jaimereupert4247]

You forgot to mention Plasma's effect of equipping a monster to that card. Also forgot to mention his Clock Tower Prison field spell and the monster that that summoned, Destiny Hero - Dreadmaster..

[@KenHayesVideos]

You're right about Diamond Dude in the anime originally requiring the cost to be paid. This was true for Season 2 at least. By Season 3, however, it started working like the TCG where he would use Destiny Draw without needing to discard a D-HERO.

I play pure d heros just for fun and there are so many ways to get out powerful monsters and good combos.

[@hightidekraken]

I play it competitive and yeah it’s SUPER fun especially with Dark Law lol

[@trueblueryu5713]

Aster’s initial use of the original heroes always struck me as odd. -First he used the same cards as Jaden, but he could branch them off into different fusion monsters, which could have been used as a way to mark the duality between the characters. -I guess they figured that difference wasn’t enough because he phased them out for the destiny heroes, which are dark attribute but not completely evil to further highlight the difference. -Jaden then got Neos and the Neo Spacians, using his heroes far less frequently and almost never having another win just using them. -Then the evil hero fusions came out when Jaden was the supreme king, and they circled back to the whole idea of darker counterparts using the same fusion materials. And this all STILL doesn’t encompass the number of cards or sub-archetypes in the actual game that count as “Hero” monsters

[@bulkbogan2242]

There's seven sub-archetypes. Elemental HERO. Destiny HERO. Evil HERO. Vision HERO. Masked HERO. Contrast HERO. Xtra HERO.

[@Magna_Dragon]

Some of those came from the manga like the masked heroes

[@1cioda]

Fun story. I was on Percy (I think. It was one of those) and i was playing an anime D hero deck for fun. I matched with a guy who was playing some meta deck at the time, i think pendulum magicians, and I kicked his ass hard. I managed to get plasma on the field, and his response to me locking him down was, and i quote- "Anime weeb deck. You are so cheap." followed by a rage quit. Thats my best memory of the D heros ever, and i love them because of it. Because i pulled off an anime moment so hard against the meta, it caused a guys head to explode.

[@chanceneck8072]

Can you perhaps tell us a bit more about Diamond Dude turbo? I remember, I got that card´s effect so wrong until I played one of the video games for the DS (I think it was World Championship 2005 or 2006. Probably 2005.). I would figure, not having to pay the cost for a spell activation can be a huge benefit even in today´s format, right? However I do think, that they should actually specify that on the card text (the fact that you really don´t have to pay the cost. I mean, how often else does that even ever happen? It´s so confusing...). Plus, you also specified, you did not have to pay the activation cost in the TCG. Does this mean, in the OCG you had to? I don´t know. I´m confused. I thought, the OCG was only the original Japanese version of the game, where cards were released in different orders. But does it have completely different rules, too? I´m so confused... lol pls help
